The next morning came, and Lucy had gotten barely any sleep. She groaned as
light came through the window, and illuminated the room. She loved light,
but at that moment, it was her worst enemy, that is other than Scott. She
pulled the warm blanket over her head, and tried to block out the light
that was overtaking the room. Just as she settled back into the bed, Alicia
started crying from the basinet on the floor.
"Great." Lucy groaned, throwing her feet over the side of the bed. "Just great."
She loved Alicia with all her heart, but at the moment, she was a little aggravated. Nonetheless, she picked up her beautiful daughter, and rocked her in her arms. She kissed her forehead, and Alicia stopped crying.
Lucy knew she was hungry, so she made her way downstairs. She was met by Robbie at the bottom of the stairs; he smiled at her, and continued up the steps. She proceeded into the kitchen, where Mary was making breakfast.
"Hey, any better?" asked Mary hopefully.
Lucy just looked at her.
"I guess that's a no."
"I didn't get any sleep last night. I can't stand fighting with him." She said sitting down on a chair.
Mary brought her a cup of coffee, and Lucy gratefully drank it.
"Look Luce, you have to go talk to him." Mary said sitting down next to her, "You guys have to resolve this."
"I know, but can't I just wait." She whined.
"No, you have to go now."
"Can I at least shower first?"
"Of course you can shower, but then you have to go." She said smiling, "I'll even watch Alicia for you."
"Okay."
She got up, and shuffled up the stairs. She quickly showered, and dressed in the same clothes she wore the day before. She then put on her shoes, and left the house.
She drove home quickly, and when she got there, she jumped out and walked up the front steps. She opened the front door, and walked quietly up the stairs. She went into their room, and she saw he was still asleep. She sat down on the side of the bed, and rubbed the side of his face. He stirred slightly, and opened his eyes. She smiled, and she was happy he smiled back at her. He sat up, and she sat down next to him.
She had no idea what to say or do, so she just sat there and waited for him to speak. When he didn't, she made the first move.
"Scott, what's going on? You have been acting really weird, and I don't know what to do." She said, throwing her arms up.
"I don't know what's going on Luce." He said, looking around the room.
"Scott, don't give me any crap. You are acting this way for a certain reason, and I wanna know what it is."
"I..I.I don't love you anymore." He said, looking her in the eye.
"What?" she choked out.
"I don't feel the same anymore, as I used to."
"We have been only been married for like 2 years." She said tears coming to her eyes.
"I know, but still."
"Is there someone else?" she asked fearing the worst.
He didn't answer. Her heart broke into a million pieces.
"Is there someone else?!" she asked almost yelling.
"Yes." He said looking down.
Lucy jumped off the bed, "Who the hell is she?"
"A woman who came into my office."
"Did you screw her?" she yelled.
"Uhhh..."
"You lying, cheating, sorry excuse for a husband!" she said crying, "We have a daughter together, and I give you whatever you want, and you go and do this!"
"I'm sorry."
"Don't give me that, you're not sorry!"
"Lucy please, don't make this any harder." He said trying to come closer to her.
"Don't make it harder, don't make it harder!" She screamed, "You have been cheating on me, and you tell me to not make it harder! You brought this upon yourself! I am leaving, and don't ever try to come near me again, I want a divorce!"
She ran out of the room crying, and down the steps. Scott followed her.
"Luce please don't leave like this." He said running down the driveway, and into the street. "Please!"
Lucy didn't care what he was saying, or doing, she just drove. Drove away, far away. She was never going to look back, it was over, she knew it, and he knew it.
"Great." Lucy groaned, throwing her feet over the side of the bed. "Just great."
