AUTORS NOTES: As promised, the next chapter.
It's almost to its end, maybe two or three more chapters.
I don't own Glee or the characters. How much I'd like to, I don't.
One last thing: I hope you enjoy this chapter :)
I'll tell her, not tomorrow, but now.
"I have to talk to you." Blaine said, trying not making it sound like a business meeting, but talking from his heart.
She was laying on the couch, reading a book. She didn't look up, but stayed in a comfortable position, with her book in front of her.
"Is this because of your behaviour? You've been acting strange lately. I might not always know what you're feeling, but this I have noticed. You seem so conflicted, not knowing what you want." Her voice was calm, emotions were barely detected.
The entire time, she hasn't looked up from her book. It annoyed Blaine, he wanted to be honest with her, tell her the truth, and all she did was ignore the problem and go through with her life. This is what their marriage was about. Going through with things, even though you're not happy about it. But that was the point. Ignoring problems eventually brings you into a stream. The more problems you ignore, the harder the stream gets, making it less and less possible to get out of it.
He'll tell her now, all of it.
"I'm leaving you. I want a divorce."
For the first time, she looked up at him, dropped her book and stood up. Her face was blank, but Blaine knew she was holding in her tears.
"No." She simply said.
"We're working on this, and at the time it is going on its best, you give up. I won't let you. We are not getting a divorce." No anger was detected on her. It was as if she was prepared to say this. She knew this was coming, but she wasn't going without a fight.
"Have patience. All will come well. Trust me."
"I can't trust you. I know this can't work out anymore and the more you are denying it, the worst you will feel when this is over. This is happening, I will leave you."
"What have I done? This is going well and you know this. It was going bad for a while, but since a few weeks you're happier, I'm happier. We are happier together. I am happy to be with you, and you're happy to be with me. I can't let you go."
"I thought I loved you. But I was wrong. What I felt for you wasn't love. Love is far much stronger. Then I found it. I've found love in someone else."
That was the moment. Blaine saw it. In her eyes, you could see her heart break. She wasn't crying, but in her eyes you could see that her heart was broken. In a thousand pieces it broke, not able to be repaired. It will be repaired over the course of time, but the scars will be visible. The scars always stay visible.
"No, you haven't." Her voice was cracking more and more. The tears and the pain were getting stronger.
"You are in love with me. You're just confused because of stuff, and I understand that. But you still love me, you always will." It was getting so much harder for her to hold her tears, but she held on, trying to look tougher.
Blaine was afraid for this. Not only has he broken her heart, but she is denying everything. Denying change, denying his loss of love. She doesn't want him to go, and she deals with it like she always has, avoiding it.
"Listen to me." Blaine said, holding her shoulders, squeezing them gently. "This has to come to an end. You can't do this to yourself. Think about it: would you want to go on if you'd known we would be living a lie? Or would you want to on, make yourself happy, making me happy?"
She couldn't hold it longer. She let it out. All the tears, all the pain.
Blaine brought her close, trying to comfort her.
"I still care for you. We can't be together, but I still care. You're special. More than you will ever know. You deserve to be happy. And the way to do that is to get rid of me, someone who lied.
This isn't the end, it's the beginning. It is the beginning of happiness for the both of us."
