Emma's POV
Sitting in her immaculate office the next day Emma's mind relayed her morning. She had woken alone to a text from Carl. She could only just understand what it had said and knew instantly he must have had a good night. He had been out with a few of his dentist friends after an exciting meeting about teeth and oral hygiene. From what she could make out of the message he had had a few to many drinks and had decided to stay at his friend, Simon's, the man who had helped Carl set up his practice. She got up out of bed and showered. She knew Carl would have to come home soon as he had appointments later that day. Just as soon as that thought crossed her mind she heard Carl come in and shout her name. She put on her bath robe and exited the bathroom. 'Man he looks rough' she thought to herself when he entered the room.
"Hi Em, miss me?" Carl asked.
"Yes" she replied trying to sound believable "good meeting?"
"Terrible" he said coldly "I never see the point in those things"
"Maybe so you can get drunk and stay out all night!" she snapped, immediately regretting what she had said. Carl retaliated and instantly started shouting and screaming at her. She stood silently, stunned at the events unfolding before her.
Emma decided she needed to concentrate on the task at hand and picked up the file for her first appointment of the day. She needed to stop thinking about Carl and their marital problems. She looked at the time; realising Will would be walking past her office any moment. She didn't feel like talking to him, she hated having to lie to him. He was so nice to her and she knew deep down, Carl or no Carl, married or not, she was still madly in love with Will. She walked over to her office door and peered out. She couldn't see him so headed straight for the ladies toilets and didn't come out for 15 minutes so that she knew he would be in his room preparing for his first Spanish lesson. She headed back to her office and began reading the files until her first appointment.
Carl's POV
His head was banging. How much did he drink last night? He couldn't remember much and had to check his sent box on his phone to remind him what lie he had told Emma about where he stayed. He hated lying to Emma. She was perfect and he had helped her get over so many issues. He wouldn't have done it if he didn't love her. Right? 'Wrong' he thought to himself. Yes he did care deeply for Emma. But truth be told he had only married Emma to keep her away from Will and he knew she had only married him to try and get over Will. WILL! That smooth talking Spanish teacher who taught glee club. How Carl loathed that man. Years ago Carl had known Will but Will had not known Carl. Carl had loved to sing and dance and perform and he looked up to Will so much. Then Will had given up his dream, got married and become a teacher. Carl had surmised that if Will had decided he couldn't make it and had changed career path then he certainly wouldn't and so had give up his only dream become a dentist. He was happy now; he loved being a dentist, owning his own practice. Yet he couldn't forget that day all those years ago. He couldn't get over it, couldn't forget the feeling of hurt and anger. He had decided to get revenge in the form of Emma.
