I went inside.

I decided to wait to see Adrian. I really needed to talk to Dimitri. So I waited. And waited. And waited. I sat on the couch watching some sci-fi movies until 1 am. After my last movie I decided to go to sleep. As I was folding my blankets up I heard his car door shut. He's home. Finally!

He walked in looking like hell. He had bags under his eyes and a slouch in his step. He looked exhausted. He looked like he just wanted to sleep. Poor bastard. He wasn't going to sleep anytime soon.

"Hey" I sat walking over to him.

"What are you doing up?" He says with a yawn.

"I waited so that we could talk about this morning." I say placing my hands on my hips trying to bring out a fierce pose.

"Please Rose can this wait til the morning." He pleads.

"No. We need to talk about this. I'm tired of this back and forth shit. The other night you waited for me to get home and then in the morning acted like a repulsed you. One moment you're hot then you're cold. If you just picked one I would be fine but I'm sick of the emotional whip-lash." I say, my voice growing in volume with each word.

"You do the same thing. Don't act like this is all on me. You come home smelling like another man and expect me to be fine and dandy? Well sorry honey I'm not." He shouts back at me.

"I...uhh." I stumble with my words.

"What? Do you really thing I'm that stupid Rose? You really think I didn't notice?" He says with a snort. Almost in a mocking or challenging way. He stares at me for a few moments. Not saying anything, just starring. Then he looks down and signs while shaking his head. And then his tone gets softer. "36 days ago... I could tell you were crying that night. I listened to you cry all night long. A few days later you came home and you were different. You glowed. After that you started taking better care of yourself. Nicer jewelry. Taking better care of the clothes you wear. You're new perfume. Baby our hearts are in sync... Do you really think I wasn't going to notice?" He asked. Tears glistening in his eyes.

"Dimitri.." I say choking back my sobs. Oh god. He was going to leave me. This is it.

"How could you do this to me? To us? Don't you love me anyone?" He asks in a soft but pain filled voice.

"I do. I do love you. I just wanted to feel wanted. You never touch me anymore and you're always working. I needed to feel loved by someone. Please... Please Dimitri." I plead. Desperation clear in my broken sobs. Crap. This was NOT how this conversation was supposed to be going.

"What Rose? That is not an excuse to go and sleep with another man. You betrayed me!" He says.

"NO. No I never had sex with him! Please just sit and let me explain. It was nothing like that." I beg him. Hoping that if I explain that he will stay.

"I don't believe you." He says with no emotion. "I think it would be better if I stayed at Ivan's house tonight." He says with an emotionless mask. To hide the hurt I caused him by just admitting to the affair.

"Please don't go." I whisper. Voice barely carrying over to him.

He walks over to the sofa and sits down with his face in his hands. "How did we get here Rose? We were so good together. I don't know how this happened."

"I don't know. I wanna try. Try to fix this. Please. I don't want to lose you. I never slept with him. I couldn't. Please. I'll never see him again. I need you." I cry. Tears running down my face. I get on my knees in front of him begging him to stay.

"I don't know Rose. I don't know if I can believe that. I'm going to Ivan's. I'll see you tomorrow." He gets up and walks towards the door.

"Promise me!" I shout at him. "Promise me that you will come home tomorrow so we can figure things out."

"I promise." He walks over to me and kisses my forehead and then turns to walk out. The door shutting behind him was the last sound I hears before my sobs took over.

MY FRIEND WROTE THIS. TELL ME IF YOU WANT ME TO KEEP IT OR DELETE THIS CHAPTER. PERSONALLY I THINK IT IS TOO SOON FOR HIM TO FIND OUT. LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU WANT ME TO DO.

KEEP OR DELETE?
