A/N: I'm really sorry this is up and the other story's not! Please don't kill me. I'm waiting for my brother to get Word and transfer all the documents (apparently, I have 8 GB of documents, which is a lot). So I'm not sure how long it will be, but I hope not long. I'm very sorry! But please enjoy this instead.

Elliot opened the door slowly and shut it quickly behind him. The house was quiet, but not silent. He thought maybe Dickie was still up, playing his video games.

He snuck quietly up the stairs and peered into his eldest son's room. He was sound asleep. Elliot furrowed his brow questioningly.

All his children were asleep as he peered into their rooms. He opened the door to the master bedroom he shared with his wife. His soon to be ex-wife. He knew when he opened the door, soon to be was sooner than he thought.

Kathy was there in bed, but she wasn't alone. There was a man with, a man on top of her. The sheets covered their naked bodies as Kathy panted and moaned quietly as she rocked against him.

Elliot sidled in, almost unsurprised. He closed the door behind him. It made a small click. The man fell onto the sheets as him and Kathy grasped the sheets to their chests.

Kathy gasped, then sighed as she looked at Elliot. Her eyes were half full of anger, half full of sadness and hurt.

Elliot was holding back his anger and hurt as much as he could. "I want a divorce," he said simply.

She hesitated for a moment and brushed her blond hair behind her ear. "What?" She looked at him almost helplessly, sad and hurt.

"Don't look at me that way, you know this was your doing."

She bit her lip and looked at the man next to her in bed. "I'm sorry," she said sincerely, looking back at Elliot. "I am, baby."

"Sorry's not going to fix us this time, Kathy."

Tears started welling up behind her eyes.

"Don't start crying," Elliot said sadly but warningly, wanting to move closer to her but finding himself rooted in his place by the door.

Several silent tears slid down her cheeks. "I love you, El."

"And I love you, Kathy. But I'm not in love with you."

She continued to look pleadingly at him and he just shook his head.

"We both know this road, we've been down it together once already. And I know, since then, you've been..." Elliot looked at the man in his bed with his wife, sitting still, not knowing what to do. He gaze was stern and angry, almost a glare.

He sighed angrily. "Sleeping around, or maybe... it's just been him." There was a moment of silence. "Except this time, I don't want things to get better between us. I'm letting you go."

Oh baby I lied
Got feelings for you I can't hide
So sad but it's true
I lost my mind when I lost you
Don't look at me that way
It's hard but I can't let you stay
We both know where it leads
I have to let you go
It's over we both know
And sorry wont fix us this time

"You work such long hours, El. I needed..."

"You needed nothing. You wanted what you thought I wasn't giving you. I've had my doubts about Eli, too. And I know he's mine, but I've still doubted it. And frankly..."

He grinned and looked away, thinking about Olivia. "There's someone else for me, too."

Words wont help to
Heal what hurts you
I did what I had to do
So don't start crying
I'll start crying
My hearts broken too

"What?" Kathy's voice was angry and accusatory.

"Oh, don't you get mad at me. You're the one that's been sleeping around. I've just got this one woman, and I love her."

"You cheated on me?"

"You cheated first," Elliot replied successfully, folding his arms.

She averted her gaze, tucking her hair behind her ear again.

Well God help me I've been blind
You just can't change a cheating kind
We've been down this road before
I have to let you go
It's over we both know
And I'm sorry wont fix us this time

The sun had began to peak over the horizon and creep into the room through the window, giving the room a warm lighting.

Elliot saw the tears behind Kathy's eyes, almost ready to pour out. "Please don't cry, you're gonna make me cry."

"You don't love me, why would you cry over me."

"I've told you Kathy, I love you, but I'm not in love with you anymore."

"Don't I get to be the angry one? You broke my heart, I get to cry."

He sighed and shook his head. "My heart's broken, too. But we both know this wasn't going to last forever."

Words wont help to
Heal what hurts you
I did what I had to do
So don't start crying
I'll start crying
My hearts broken too

Elliot looked out the window at the sunrise. "The sun brings the truth, Kathy. It's over. You know it as well as I do."

"It's Olivia, isn't it? She's making you do this, isn't she?" Kathy shouted at him.

"She's not making me do anything, I'm choosing to leave you. Like you chose to leave me."

Kathy sighed angrily, pulling the sheets closer to her body. "I knew you loved her. You've loved her all along."

Elliot smiled and remembered the last decade. He'd spent most of his time with Olivia, it's true. She was his best friend. And now, she was all his all the time. "Yeah, I guess I have."

Sometimes it seems
I'd sleep for dreams
When you were mine
But with the sun
The truth becomes
So clear I can't go back this time

"I'm just surprised it took you this long to do anything with her."

"I've been in love with you for a long time, Kathy, but I'm just not anymore. And I am in love with Olivia. You have to believe me when I say my heart's broken, too."

"No I don't," she interrupted.

"Because you're an amazing woman, and I'm glad we've spent as long as we have together. I'm glad we have these beautiful children together. I am. But enough's enough. We've dragged out this thing too long."

"Okay," she quietly succumbed to his demands.

Elliot looked shocked for a moment that, after all that, she gave in so easily. Then he smiled weakly at her.

Words wont help to
Heal what hurts you
I did what I had to do
So don't start crying
I'll start crying
My hearts broken too

"Kathy, we both know it's over," he said softly. "I'll bring the papers by tomorrow."

And with that, Elliot left the room and the house for the last time.

A/N: I wasn't quite sure how to do this one, but tell me what you think. I'm continuing each chapter with another Sugarland song, so...
