Robert laid on his right side with his back against his couch and Jillian against his chest. She was laying facing him and they had a blanket over them. Their legs were tangled up and she was tracing light lines against his chest as they talked quietly and laughed. He had one arm under her neck and the other around her waist, his knuckles drawing circles against her lower back. After a while, their talking slowed and they just stared at each other.
" I have never cheated on anyone before." She whispered. Robert sighed, he couldn't say the same thing.
" I want you to leave him." Robert said.
" I want to too. I just don't know where I'm going to go. I sold all my stuff and put all my money in his bank account." Jillian said.
" Listen, don't do anything yet. Start looking for a place. All my stuff is in storage, I didn't get rid of anything when I moved into her place. You find us a place, we'll get my stuff out and move in." Robert said.
" Us?" Jillian asked in shock. Robert smiled and nodded.
" Yeah, us. For right now we will stay with them, but only until we find a place. Mena and I don't have a share account so I will pay whatever the apartment place wants. The day we are to move in, go to the bank, take out the money that you know is yours, pack your bag and tell him you're out." He said.
" You want us to live together?" She asked.
" Yeah. I'm going to do this right this time. I should have moved in with you before. I should have followed you to Maine and I didn't. I have regretted that every day since. I'm not going to lose you again." Robert confessed. Jillian closed her eyes but smiled.
" No one is going to believe we are getting back together." She said when she finally opened her eyes.
" Are you kidding? Everyone is going to believe it. They all keep asking me when I'm going to leave Mena and date you again." He said.
" Do you still sleep with her?" Jillian asked.
" No. I sleep on the couch, she takes the bed." Robert's eyes swept her face as he decided if he wanted to ask her the same question. " What about you?" He asked quietly.
" No. Shane doesn't have a very high sex drive. We were having sex two or four times a month. I can just tell him I don't feel good or I started my period." She said. Robert sighed.
" Good." He said. Shane had to be crazy, he thought. He couldn't understand how the man could keep his hands off Jillian but he was grateful. " We should get dressed so you can get home without him questioning you."
After they were dressed and she was ready to go, Robert walked her outside then pushed her against her car and kissed her until her head was spinning. He was hard again, and pressing against her. He didn't want to let her go. He wanted to pull her back into the studio and spend the night with her but knew she needed to get back.
" Text me when you get home. I want to know you got there safely then come and see me tomorrow." Robert said against her lips. " And I'm calling you my girlfriend already." Jillian laughed, making him smile.
UntilTheNight
For the next two weeks, Jillian spent her days at Robert's studio. She read while he worked. He watched her when he could, catching her eyes and making her smile. Sometimes, he'd just sit back in his chair and watch her, feeling grateful that she was right in front of him again. Often times, he's lay on the couch with his head in her lap and his eyes closed while she ran her hand through his hair.
While he took pictures, she looked through the internet and set up appointments to find a place for them. They talked, they laughed, they ate lunch, they had sex and played with each other. They memorized each other's favorite spots, the spots that the other one pant or cry out. He strained against her when she teased him with her mouth or her body. She whimpered and moaned when he owned her with his. It was like their time apart never happen. They made plans for their future, both excited to end their relationships and be able to go out in public together.
At night Robert stayed at his studio for as long as he could. He'd lay on his couch texting Jillian and waiting for her replies. He told her over and over again how much he loved her while grinning and smiling at her declarations of love. He promised to never let her go. They dirty texted each other with her sending him pictures of some of his favorite parts of her. He'd jerk off and send pictures of it to her because she loved it and got turned on.
When Jillian went home, she made dinner for her and Shane, needing to keep up the appearance of their relationship. Shane would come home, kiss her cheek and make his usual pleasant talk. He worked at their dinner table then took a drink to his study and locked himself away to continue his work. True to what she told Robert, Shane never tried to touch her in a sexual way. They even slept on different sides of the bed and he'd wait until she went to sleep before he came to bed. It wasn't a surprise to her though. He had always been caught up in his work and they had never went to bed together. Before they moved into the apartment, Jillian could go days without seeing him, only talking to him on the phone.
At the end of the two weeks, Jillian dragged Robert to an apartment that she thought would be perfect for them. She was excited and wanted him to see it before she signed a lease. Robert was all to happy to go with her. She was just as he remembered, fun and easy. As she looped her arm around his and tugged him across the apartment porch, he couldn't stop grinning.
As soon as she opened the door and walked in, Robert knew the place was perfect for them. Off to his left was the open kitchen. The kitchen, dining and living room were completely open with only a breakfast bar between the kitchen and the dining room. Across the big room, against the right wall was a stone fireplace. Beside the fireplace was a balcony with a sliding glass door.
To the right of the front door was a small hallway that lead to a bathroom and a small bedroom. Jillian pulled Robert into the apartment and across the great room. To the left of fire place was another bedroom, bigger than the first and in that bedroom was another sliding glass door and balcony and a huge bathroom.
" Well?" Jillian asked excitedly when she let Robert go. He put his hands in his pockets and looked around the bedroom that would be theirs.
" Well what? If you like it, let's sign a lease. Let's find out how much money we need for it and I'll take it out." He said.
" Are you sure you can do that? I mean, when I leave Shane I can give you the money back." She said, making him smile.
" Baby, if you want it, let's get it. I'm not worried about the money, okay? I have what we need to do this. You want to pay for things, then buy the food the first month. Now, do you want it or not?" Robert asked.
" I do." Jillian admitted.
" Okay than. Let's go to the office, sign a lease, and see how much money they want up front." Robert said.
Jillian clapped her hands and shot forward. Robert grabbed her as she slammed into him, making him laugh. He picked her up as she circled her arms around his neck. Robert swung her around, feeling excited for the first time in a long time. He was grinning, she was laughing. As he lowered her to the ground, she smashed her lips to his.
" I love you." She breathed out against his lips.
" I love you too." Robert whispered.
After signing the lease and paying the first month rent and giving them a deposit, they were given their move in date. It was still two weeks away. The apartment complex wanted to shampoo the carpets and repaint the walls. They were going to check it over to see if it needed any other repairs. Two more weeks, that was all they had to wait then they could be together all the time. They would move in and a month after that Jillian would start her work as a teacher. Two weeks and Robert could walk away from Hurricane Mena forever.
" Who is she!" Mena screamed at Robert when he walked into the apartment later that night. He sighed and closed the door behind him.
" Who?" Robert asked.
" You know who! Who is the bitch you are sleeping with behind my back!" Mena yelled.
" You're so fucking crazy." Robert muttered as he made his way towards the kitchen.
" I'm crazy! You think I don't know you are fucking someone? You stay out late and come home smelling like perfume so who is she!" Mena yelled.
' Ignore her. I just have to ignore her for two more weeks.' Robert told himself over and over again. His phone went off in his pocket. Robert quickly made himself a drink as Mena yelled from the kitchen doorway. He took a drink of his Jack Daniels, dug his phone out and looked down at the text message. As he swallowed down the familiar liquor, he opened Jillian's text message.
' I can't wait! Our first night, we are going to take a bubble bath. have sex, then make a fire and have sex again!' Robert grinned. He loved how sexual she was and how much she wanted him.
' Oh yeah, that's gonna be great.' He texted, completely shutting Mena out, even as she launched a pillow that hit Robert in the left shoulder. ' We'll be having a lot of sex, Baby, count on that. After we move in, we aren't leaving the apartment for a few days. I just want to stay inside you, cumming and cumming.'
" I knew it!" Mena screamed, making Robert jump and look over his left shoulder as her. She was reading reading his texts.
" What are you doing!" Robert yelled, turning around and shoving the phone into his pocket.
" You're fucking Jillian! How could you!" She screamed as she started to pound at his wide chest.
" Fuck off!" Robert yelled. " Stop hitting me!" He said as he tried to dodge her punches. When that didn't work, he grabbed her by her wrists and tried to still her. " Stop fighting me!"
" You son of a bitch! How could cheat on me with her!" Mena yelled as she tried to pull her wrists away from him. Robert pushed her away and shook his head.
" You don't know what you are talking about!" He yelled.
" Yes I do! I saw those messages! I read them! You are leaving me to live with her, admit it! Just be a man, for once in your stupid life and admit it!" Mena yelled.
" Alright, fine! Yeah, I'm seeing her! We're been together for the past two weeks! We signed a lease today and I'm moving out in two weeks! I can't take this shit with you anymore!" Robert yelled, making Mena step back.
" But I love you." She said, surprisingly quiet. Robert shook his head and took a few deep breaths.
" Ah Mena, no, you don't. How could you? Look at us. All we do is fight and scream at each other. I cheat on you over and over again. You cry all the time. This is not a relationship and you know it." Robert said, feeling bad for the woman he had cared about, at least a little bit. " You deserve better than me. We should have never started this. We shouldn't have moved in together, we are a horrible couple."
" You said you loved me." Mena said as she started to cry.
" I know and I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said that. I care about you but I don't love you. I never stopped being in love with Jillian and now that she's back," He shook his head again as he started at Mena. " I can't let her go again. I just can't. But you will find someone better than me. Someone who won't fight with you all the time."
" You really think she's going put up with your lies and your drinking?" Mena asked.
" Jillian knows me, inside and out and she still loves me. I don't lie to her." Robert said.
" Oh please! You will always lie!" With that, Mena spun on her heel and stormed away from him. With a sigh, Robert took out his phone.
' I miss you, Baby. I can't wait to be with you all day and all night again.' He sent out.
' I miss you too, Rob. I'm so excited, you have no idea.' She sent back, almost right away.
