All Affairs love and ends

It was in that Halloween party, Harry was a lost sole, Beth had said he was a lousy father, that didn't care for his kids, cared more about his department and colleagues than anyone who he was married to or father to. He was sat brooding over what had been said, watching upon the other members of his team, along with the paramedics, laughing, and joking, over the Halloween spirit, but there he was un-able to enjoy the fun.

Selena walked in from the other side of the room, she tried to hid herself when she did, she made sure her hair was covering her left side of her face, she didn't want people knowing what had happened, she only came to the party to get away from Will and she had to tell him, he knew about the first time, she walked over and sat by the seat beside him.

'Hi'

'Hey Selena..'

'You okay..'

'Beth, thinks I'm to lousy and to wrapped up in work... you'

Selena, looked up at him and her hair feel back revealing a shocking site 'Will.. he.. went mad...'

'Oh Selena...'

'I would have stayed there, but I came because I had to get away...'

'Selena you know I'm here for you, if you ever need someone to fall back on to'

'Harry I can't, you need to sort things out with Beth...'

'There's nothing to sort out between us, we're over.. I don't love her... we're staying together because of the kids...'

'That's because you're a good man Harry..'

'Hey.. you deserve a good man too.. '

'Maybe I can't get out of out of the relationship with a man I thought was good'

'I'll be able to help you'

'No Harry.. you've got to much on your plate and I don't want you to get hurt'

'You know how I feel about you..'

'Harry I know... I feel the same.. but Will, he won't let me go... he... he ..' Selena began to shake, with fear

'Hey, it's okay.. you're safe with me.. if I'm around I won't let anyone hurt you'

'I want out.. but... he.. said if I leave or, tell anyone.. he would...'

'Shhh it will be okay I promise, he won't find out about me knowing'

'you mean that.. promise me Harry..'

'I said I promise'

Selena just grasped hold of his hands, and they both looked deep into each others eyes

They kissed, Harry was careful not to touch the left side of her face, he didn't want to hurt her, he couldn't, not even if it was an accident,

'Harry, we shouldn't do this'

'if we feel the same.. we can.. it will be our secret..'

Selena smiled 'this reminds me of something... you know me being good with secrets'

'Yeah' Harry replied 'Look no-one has to no.. the people here can shove the gossip.. I will especially tell Bex to keep her nose out'

'Aww.. she knew about last time too..' Selena rubbed her hand over Harry's 'come on shall we dance.. we should show our faces a bit more..'

Harry nodded, 'If you're okay with it'

'I'm fine, you're looking after me, aren't you?'

'Yes'

'Good'

Harry and Selena went into the dance floor where the others were, this wasn't Harry's types of music, to dance to he preferred slow love songs but someone this track had meaning when he was with Selena, and they seemed to dance as one, with passion to Atomic Kitten's 'Be with you'.

'You seem happier' Harry said loudly as Selena brought her back closer to Harry whilst she was still dancing

'That's because I'm having a good time, Harry'

'Thought you were' he replied

As the song came to an end, they went back to their table and sat down. Maggie came over.

'Hey you two looked like you were having fun...'

'Yep' Harry replied

'Well, I wouldn't have thought it... I thought you were both married... to other people if that makes sense' Maggie said trying not to confuse herself

'Yes' Selena replied 'just having a bit of fun'

Selena shook her head back, and Maggie caught glimpse of her face

'Blimey, who did that to you' she exclaimed

'No, one I walked into the door, I tripped over Will's shoes at night when I was going to the bathroom' Selena lied

'Oh right' Maggie replied 'looks nasty'

'Yeah I know' Selena snapped

'Maggie, can you leave her be.. please' Harry asked

'okay.. I was only showing I care, as a friend'

'she knows that'

'and I can speak for myself Harry'
