What Becomes of the Brokenhearted?
Chapter 14
EPOV
Agony!
Pure fucking agony!
Gut wrenching, soul crushing, searing agony!
I would rather have someone run a stake through my heart than have to stand there and watch Marie walk away, but that's exactly what I did.
Like a stupid jackass, I let her walk away from me!
And possibly out of my life forever!
I wanted to come clean about everything!
Wanting her to forgive me for the lies!
Wanting her to understand that I was stuck between a rock and a hard place!
As the plane taxied down the runway, I opened and closed my mouth an infinite number of times, but nothing came out.
She eyed me with anticipation, but I was too much of a fucking coward to say anything!
And without so much as a fucking, "See you around," she turned and waltzed right out of my life. As quickly and as fluidly as she could, she maneuvered her way through the throngs of passengers to the baggage claim area.
I didn´t have anything to pick up, but being the sick bastard that I was, I followed her.
In that moment, I would have thought that I meant nothing to her.
What we did meant nothing to her!
It wasn´t until the light hit just right and I saw the tears glistening in her eyes that my whole body ached to go to her.
It physically hurt not to be able to kiss her pain away!
Sucking in a ragged breath, my own emotion hit me like a ton of bricks.
She was hurting damn it!
And it was entirely my fucking fault!
Did she think that I didn´t want her?
Blasphemy!
Nothing could be farther from the truth!
If I would have just manned up and asked her not to leave, maybe she wouldn´t be feeling like I rejected her right now.
Following her out to the taxi run, I took a moment to really study her.
Flatfoot she stood about 5´4" tall. Wavy strands of mahogany hair cascaded like spun silk down her back. The biggest, most expressive brown eyes were set in her heart shaped face; her beauty was timeless and regal.
Sadly, she didn´t see herself clearly at all!
It was killing me to see the tears spilling from her eyes.
She just looked so… sad!
When there were only two people left ahead of her, I approached.
I wanted to fucking leap for joy when she placed her tiny delicate hand in mine and let me lead her away to my car.
Silently, I thanked God that I was in my Vanquish and the car seats where in the Audi. Don´t get me wrong, I was a very proud papa, but I had to find a way to break the news to Marie, and I don't think that finding two empty car seats in the back of my car was the way to do it.
Telling her about Brooklyn and Gunner would force me to have to bring up Tanya and I didn´t want to overwhelm her or scare her away!
Ultimately, I was headed for single-parenthood and I wasn´t sure if that was something that Marie could handle.
She was just starting grad school for fuck´s sake!
All in due time, I reminded myself.
I planned on talking to her about everything, but first, I needed to take care of my girl properly, then I could go home to my babies.
God, I missed my babies!
Gunner and Brooklyn were my life!
God how I wished that Marie was Brook and Gunny´s mom, Lord knows my bitch of a wife was hardly one.
My babies were the only good thing to come out of my sham of a marriage.
A marriage that I now knew was over!
Also on my very long list of things to do, calling Jenks and getting the ball rolling.
Tanya was out and Marie was definitely in!
I would wait until Jenks filed the papers, and then I would come clean about everything to Marie.
Then, I was hoping that we could be together, without the threat of Tanya hanging over our heads.
I just needed a couple of weeks, and then I was all hers!
That is if she´d have me after I came clean about my fucked up life!
Hope that you enjoyed that! Leave me some love!
