Chapter 4.
It's uncertain what did or did not happen that night, but when Julia woke up Calleigh was asleep next to her only wearing her top and panties. It was the second time Julia had watched her sleep. Face down in her pillows, the messy hair surrounding her, making little sleeping sounds, but still to Julia she looked like a Goddess as the sun from outside made her hair shine like gold.
Julia tried to remember the night before; she remembered of course that they had been down at the beach talking about their relationship stories. She remembered it got colder and the waves had calmed down a little before they walked back to the hotel.
On the way there they had stopped by a snack bar to get something to eat and Julia was sure the leftovers were still in her fridge, somewhere behind soda and alcohol.
She did remember they both fighting with the door to get it open with a lot of giggles and that they were tired and wanted to sleep, but she did not remember them getting undressed or getting to bed, yet they must have as Calleigh were still asleep and she had just woken up.
Again she looked over at Calleigh, she was groaning a little and moving a bit in her sleep before slowly opening her eyes and saying, "You're…you're not Eric."
"I'm sorry to disappoint you there," said Julia with a little smile.
"Did we…did we…?" Calleigh asked feeling her body for clothes, trying to remember.
"In all honesty I think we just slept, how are you feeling?" asked Julia in a soft tone, looking at her.
"Very confused and feeling a bit hung-over, I don't wanna go to the beach today," she said with a sigh.
"We don't have to, we can stay in and relax," Julia suggested.
"That would be really good; do you have anything to drink?" Calleigh asked just as her phone went off, she sighed and said, "Calleigh Duquesne."
"Hi, it's me, what happened last night?" she heard Eric ask, not too happy in the other end.
"Sorry what do you mean?" she asked back a little confused.
"I mean who the hell was that dude answering your phone when I called last night," he said.
"I have no idea what you are on about, when was this?" she asked, even more confused.
"Eleven your time," he answered waiting for her explanation.
"Oh my Gosh it must have been one of the guys at the bar picking up, Eric I'm so sorry, I totally haven't done anything with them," she said.
"Coke or Sprite?" she then heard Julia ask from the fridge.
"And that is?" he asked, shocked that she wasn't alone after all.
"No one," she answered, pointing towards the coke.
"Calleigh, I could hear there was someone there," said Eric.
"Well what if there was, you didn't want to come and I am allowed to talk to and hang out with others without you going totally paranoid on me," she snapped at him without knowing why.
"Well excuse me for wanting to know if the girl I'm seeing is seeing someone else," he snapped back.
"If you knew me at all you know that I wouldn't cheat, I am not like that," she said, hurt by his words.
"Maybe so, I just don't like you being over there, can't you just come home," he asked.
"No this is my vacation and I deserve it and you know it, if you want to be with me you take time off and come after," she said.
"And if I don't?" he asked.
"Then you have to deal with me being here without you, and trust me, because if you can not do that then maybe we shouldn't be together," she said with a heavy sight.
"You are right," he said.
"Don't do this now," she whispered.
"It was your words," he said.
"And you are not disagreeing, don't you love me at all," she said.
"I do more than anything, I just don't know what to do... I wanna trust you, but you don't picking up, that guy and you being with someone else right now, it's hard," he said.
"It shouldn't be, as I have done nothing," she said honest.
"In my heart I know that, but yet, I'm sorry Calleigh, I just…" he stopped, not being able to say it out loud.
"Eric, don't do this, wait at least until I get back home and we can talk about it," she said.
"I'm sorry I can't," he said and hung up.
"Eric," she whispered with the phone still in her hand, as her tears started to fall.
"Calleigh, what happened," Julia asked looking at her sad face, she seemed crushed.
"I think he broke up with me," she managed, to get out before falling to piece in front of her.
"Shhh easy," Julia said calmly, putting the soda aside before wrapping her arms around the other woman, as she cried her heart out.
