CHAPTER 15 – Confrontation
Stacey's P.O.V
Dom was supposed to be back like and hour and a half ago. I had to go shopping and he was supposed to be watching Junior for me while I went. Mia was home but that wasn't the point. Junior was Dom's son not Mia's. Junior was busy watching Knight Rider. I stood beside the couch while calling Dom. I was ready to give him a right mouthful, and then he walked through the front door with Brian and Vince.
"Dom, I've gotta be at work in like four hours. I'm never gonna have time to go…" I began. Then I saw the expression on his face.
"We need to talk" Dom said walking past me and into the kitchen.
"Hey Little Man" Brian said sitting beside Junior on the couch. "You wanna come to the park with Uncle Brian and Auntie Mia?" he asked him.
"Yay" Junior said jumping off the couch excitedly. I walked in to the kitchen to Dom. He sat at the table with a whole bunch of papers in front of him.
"What's going on?" I asked him quietly trying to read the papers across the table without him noticing I was trying to. I read the name Johnny Tran upside down then I knew straight away.
"You bastard" I said walking out of the kitchen and towards Brian. He was standing next to Mia who was putting Junior's coat on by the front door. He looked at me and before he could register what was happening my fist connected with the right side of his face, knocking him off balance slightly. Vince grabbed me around the waist and pulled me away before I could go in for more.
"That's enough" Vince told me quietly in my ear trying to calm me. And for some reason it did, the deepness of his voice soothed me.
"What the hell is going on?" Mia asked starring at me along with Junior.
"You got him the police report right?" I asked looking directly at Brian, tears filling my eyes. Vince let me go, knowing I had calmed down and placed me on my feet on the floor.
"I asked him to" Dom said before Brian could answer. I turned around to see Dom leaning on the doorframe to the kitchen.
"You ever think there was a reason I didn't tell you?" I asked Dom, my anger boiling again. He looked at me blankly. I waited a little longer for him to respond but he just starred at me dumbstruck. "I didn't not tell you cause it was so traumatic. I didn't tell you cause I didn't think you could handle it."
"How can Tran raping you not be traumatic?" Vince asked bluntly. He was never one for subtly. He said it like it was and that was what I loved about him.
"He didn't rape me" I said frowning at him.
"But that's what the report says" Dom said walking out of the kitchen doorway and towards me holding the papers up."You're reading what you want to be true Dom. I slept with him, I consented to it" I told him. He stared at me then he looked up at Vince, Brian and Mia to tell them to leave. They didn't need to be told and they left, leaving Dom and I standing in the hallway alone."YOU'VE ALWAYS HAD A THING FOR THE TRAN'S, THOUGHT I'D SEE WHAT THE BIG DEAL WAS!" I yelled at Dom. We had been shouting abuse and insults at one another for the past two and a half hours. I kept leaving the room not wanting to fight anymore but he wasn't having any of it and kept following me from room to room.
Mia, Brian, and Junior hadn't come back yet. They were probably at Vince's, waiting for the shouting to stop--they could probably hear us two doors up.
"YOU STILL HUNG UP ON THAT? GET THE FUCK OVER IT ALREADY" he growled back at me following me down the stairs. I had gotten ready for work while we argued.
"LOOK DOM I DID WHAT I HAD TO DO! YOU WERE TOO BUSY HERE WITH TIA SO I DID WHAT WAS NECESSARY TO ESCAPE. IT WORKED AND I'M NOT ASHAMED OF THAT!" I screamed at him walking in to the kitchen so I could find my car keys.
"SO WHY DO YOU HATE IT SO MUCH WHEN I TOUCH YOU?" he asked.
"CAUSE YOU WERE WITH HER!" I told him. His face turned from anger to confusion. I was confused too. I hadn't really thought about why I hated it when he touched me but it was cause Tia was here. Cause he was sleeping with her. While I was handcuffed in a place I didn't know with a psycho, he was here playing happy families with Tia. "When Tran told me Tia was here with you, my heart broke all over again…"
"Nothing happened with me and Tia, I've told you a hundred times" he sighed interrupting me.
"I know, and I believe you that nothing happened. But it makes me feel better about what I did to think that something happened between the two of you" I told him, my throat was hurting from screaming and shouting at him so I didn't shout.
"God where did we go wrong?" he asked sitting on the kitchen table rubbing his head.
"When were we ever right?" I asked sitting across from him at the table. "I don't remember the last time we were happy."
"I do…"
