He drove fast and defensively, switching the radio station every time a love song would come on.
He couldn't help but hate he walked into the cabin Sarah was cleaning madly.
The whole time he was gone she couldn't shake off her worried thoughts, so she cleaned to get her mind off of the real walked up to her and sighed loudly, watching her vigorously scrub the kitchen sink.
"How was it?" She asked as she worked at a minutely dirty shrugged and looked down, not able to fully look her in the eyes.
"Well, it was...horrible." He said before he could think of a constructive nodded and continued scrubbing.
"Sar, stop cleaning." He told her and grabbed her spun around and faced him, dropping the sponge into the sink.
"I'm upset.""I know, you always clean when you're upset." He laughed a little remained solemn.
"What happened?""Nothing." He replied quickly and scratched his ear.
"Bullshit, you smell like her Mort." She said shrugged and pulled away from her.
"Sarah," He began, wondering if he should tell her the truth.
"Mort..." She grabbed him again and placed her hands on his waist, her fingers realizing that he wasn't wearing his usual belt.
Her eyes found his and he looked away.
"What happened, tell me."
He cleared his throat and said, "Something, but I stopped it from turning into something more."
She shook her head, "Mort, you're not wearing your belt, did you have sex with her, did you fuck her?!"
Mort shook his head, "No, came close to it, but all I thought about was you and how wrong it was."
Instantly he bit his tongue back, cursing himself for his honestly.

"I stopped it from happening because I love you." He said tears filling his nodded.
"Thank you, you finally looked at me, honestly."
He smiled, "I couldn't lie to you…ever."
His hands reached down and rubbed her stomach, "We're going to have a family together, how could I fuck that up?"

"Then put some more trust in me." He said and kissed her forehead. "I might go astray and get teased from time to time but I know who I can have and who I can't and it's only you who gets all of me."
Sarah smiled and rested her head on his shoulder, figuring his word was good, this time considering she knew Amy's character and the past Mort and her shared.
"Get your belt back, I liked that one." She winked as she returned her attention to the spotless sink.
