Disclaimer: I only own Samantha. Chris Parks belongs to himself and to TNA. Given a chance to own him, I'd gladly accept.
"What the fuck is this?" Those words rang through Samantha's mind as she sat staring at the divorce papers she now held in her hand. Has it really come to this? Am I throwing away five years of marriage for lust?
"Sam...just sign the damn papers." Chris growled, bringing her out of her thoughts.
"Chris we've been married for five years, are you really willing to throw that all away?"
"Me throw it away? You're the one that threw it all away, you're the one that chose to kiss another man. Another man who happens to be a good friend of mine and if that wasn't bad enough...you did it in our own fucking house Samantha!" He yelled.
"It was a mis..."
"Don't! Don't you even say it was a damn mistake. We went through so much hell to get where we are today and you go and throw it all away because you won't keep your damn legs closed." Hearing him say that stung Samantha to the core.
"Chris we didn't have sex."
"Because I came in. Let me ask you this though Sam, what would've happened if I hadn't showed up?"
What would have happened? Would we have had sex? It was a question that Samantha wasn't sure how to answer. "I don't know Chris, I honestly don't." Samantha whispered.
"Just as I thought. Now sign the damn papers so I can get out of here."
"No." She wanted it to come out strongly but it barely came out at all.
"What?"
Samantha looked up into his eyes and took a deep breath. "I said no." I won't throw my marriage away, I love him too much!
"Why? This is what you want isn't it?"
"No it's not Chris. I made a mistake and I admit that but dammit I'm not going to throw our marriage away, I love you too much. It's like you said - we've been through so much hell to get where we are today and I'm not ready to let that go yet, I just can't."
Chris sighed and sat down in a chair facing his wife as he ran his fingers through his hair. "I love you too Sam. That's why it hurts me so damn much that you did this."
Samantha stood up from the bed in her hotel room, walked over to Chris and knelt in front of him. "Can we fix this? Do you love me enough to try?" Those were questions she needed to ask but was afraid to hear the answers to.
"I don't know if we can fix this..." He trailed off. Samantha nodded and stood up. She started to walk away but stopped when Chris grabbed a hold of her wrist. Samantha turned to face him with tears in her eyes as he slowly stood up. "But I do love you enough to try." Chris whispered as he claimed her lips in a lovingly passionate kiss.
