Orlando walked out of the restaurant and saw Keira leaning against the car. He unlocked the car door and Keira opened her door and sat in the passenger seat. Orlando sat in the driver's seat and started driving back to the hotel. The car ride was silent and none of them spoke even when they reached their hotel room. Keira opened the door and Orlando closed it. He was surprised she didn't slam it in his face because he felt that he deserved it.
She went to the bathroom to put on her pajamas and Orlando changed into out of his clothes into his pajamas shorts in the bed room.
In the bathroom Keira was changing and felt terrible about everything she had said.
"He does have a point' she said out loud. "But I'm just so afraid-" she stopped talking as she closed her eyes and sighed. "I don't want to lose you" she whispered.
Orlando was laying down under the covers on his side of the bed thinking about everything. "I have to talk to Gore" he said out loud. "But what if Keira is right?"
He kept thinking when Keira came out. She was wearing a black tank top with nothing but her black underwear. She laid down on her side and turned off the lamp making the room very dark. Each one had their back to the other. The tension in the room was killing the both of them equally.
Orlando couldn't sleep without having her in his arms and she couldn't sleep without being in his arms. Neither of them knew how they ever functioned without each other before. Finally Keira couldn't take it anymore.
"Orlando" she whispered. She turned her head to face him and saw him looking at her. Without saying another word he pulled her underneath him and he kissed her mouth furiously. Keira responded as she wrapped her legs around his waist. His lips traveled from her mouth to her neck and then to her chest. Keira had her eyes closed as she felt his touch. She then brought his face up to hers and kissed him. Her hands went up and down his chest and back as his touched her thigh. Keira lifted her arms as Orlando pulled off her tank top. They spent the next few hours "apologizing" to one another.
At 3:13 in the morning Keira had her head on Orlando's bare chest. She was drawing tiny circles on his chest with her slim pointer finger.
"I'm sorry" she whispered to him.
Orlando tightened his grip on her as he kissed her head. "I'm sorry to. I was overreacting."
"Orlando I'm so afraid that if you confront him he'll do something."
"He won't and I won't yell at him. However, I'm still going to talk to Gore but I'm just not going to go in screaming and yelling."
Keira smiled as she kissed his chest. "As long as you don't kill him then I'm okay with that" she said as she looked up at him.
Orlando smiled this time. "I won't. Everything will be fine. I promise."
No one should ever make promises because they might not be able to keep them.
