Chapter 23:
Stu was out of breath as he ran back into my apartment, practically breaking down my door. He was covered in sweat, and was looking around frantically. This made me both nervous an curious. He had left the apartment in a huff being pretty upset by what I had said. I didn't expect him to come back so soon, or rather at all. I have a bad habit of screwing everything up. He quickly walked about the apartment, looking inside cabinets, and underneath everything he could think of.
"Um... Stu?" I asked walking slowly over to him, whom was now inspecting my living room window very carefully. What was he looking for? Kate just watched us both closely.
"I'm looking for a bug" I gasped
"A Bug, but my apartment is clean of any insects..." He rolled his eyes, and turned to face me.
"No, not that kind of bug!" I didn't get it, but Kate had as she grasped tighter to her coffee cup, now pouring copious amounts of alcohol to it. I just gave him a confused look, biting my bottom lip. "Some kind of camera, or recording device!" He was now shouting, which made me un easy, but he was just frightened as to what he might find.
"What makes you think my apartment might be bugged?" He sighed, rubbing his chin out of frustration. He knew I was being stubborn, and making things more difficult for him.
"Jamie, I saw a man who I think was Pete by your window when I pulled up." I felt my chest tighten again. What was this man planning? This stalker thing was way too creepy, or perhaps I read too many murder mystery books.
"Did you find anything?" Kate spoke up, afraid to move, wanting to get drunk in hurry so that she could better deal with everything.
"I'm still looking" He went back to the window, feeling around the sides, and edges. He did that to each room, ending with my bedroom. While he looked I paced about the room, too nervous to sit down, or say anything.
Stu emerged holding a small black device with a wire attached to it, and threw it on the kitchen table.
"What is that?" Kate jumped, knowing it wasn't good if he found some thing.
"Bloody son of a bitch had a recording camera in the bedroom window. God knows what he has on there, or how long it's been there!" I felt incredibly sick. He was spying on me in the bedroom that means he saw everything that happened between Stu an I last night.
"Oh my God!" I panicked. "I feel sick!" I finally sat down, and Stu came over to me, putting a hand on my shoulder.
"I know the feeling love" I looked up at him, wanting to talk about earlier, and our fight, but fought against my better judgment to just drop it. "What?" he asked reading my face, knowing I wanted to say soothing. I sighed, still staring at him in disbelief.
"You came back?"
"Yea, I came back to get my things, and stay at a motel down the street." I nodded, feeling my chest tighten, and fought tears. "It's best I'm not here, when your boyfriend gets here to surprise his girlfriend."
"Then why don't you just leave, why are you even here now? What do you care if Pete comes after me?" I shot back not thinking or caring ,because I was hurting.
"I made you a promise to protect you, I will not leave you to your psycho ex, and then watch the morning news to find out they only found your body dead and mangled!" He was now shouting. Even though he was hurt, and angry he still cared a great deal about me, and Kate knew it as she watched with intent.
"Why do you still insist on pushing this relationship with Randy" I paused. "After last night..."
"Clearly I'm a womanizer, and I'm just proving I can get any woman I want!" I wanted to throw something at him, I was so mad. "You have always wanted Orton, you made that perfectly clear!"
"Until you made me fall in love with you!" I shouted, even before I could process and realize what I had just said. Kate ,and Stu just stared at me, waiting for me to realize what I just said. No one was saying anything and it made me nervous, I could hear everyone's breathing that's how quiet it had gotten.
Finally not saying another word, either out of pride, or anger, or denial, Stu grabbed his bags, and headed toward the door.
"Your boyfriend is coming to surprise you tonight" Then he left , slamming the door behind him.
I stared at the door for a while expecting him to maybe come back, but after ten minutes he did not.
I turned to Kate in disbelief.
"Did that really happen?" She nodded.
"Idiot!" she sipped her drink, and headed for the bathroom to take a much needed shower.
What was I going to do now? Was Stu leaving for good? What do I do if Pete shows up, or makes a move, and to top it off, Randy is the innocent victim in all of this. He doesn't really know about my horrid past, and that same past here to hurt me. How could I be so stupid as to not tell him. I groaned, why did I let Stu influence me, and convince me not to tell him. What if Pete went after him, it seemed he was always one step ahead of us and who knew what he knew.
I picked up my phone to dial Randy, I need to come clean.
He picked up after three rings.
"Hello Sweetheart!"
"Hey Randy" I tried to sound normal, and steady my voice.
"I'm glad that you called, I have a surprise for you!"
"Actually I already know..." I heard him sigh
"Stu.. that idiot! He told you that I was coming to night to surprise you didn't he?"
"Yes" I paused "But look Randy I have some thing to tell you."
"Tell me tonight, because I have some thing very important to say to you as well, but the mood has to be just right." I heart felt like it was going to beat out of my chest. Why couldn't Stu just let me fall for this man, because I could really see myself doing so, he was so sweet.
"Randy..."
"I can't wait to see you Jam"
"You're sweet..." I sighed fighting with the inner voices in my head to tell him.
"That's not all I am..." I chuckled "I'm also very sexy" Damn hormones, he was right, he was very sexy, and I was looking forward to seeing him, but after everything that happened with Stu, and whats going on with my Ex Pete,how can I expect everything to be the fairytale that I always dreamed of?
"I can't wait to see you to" I finally said.
"Listen Expect me by seven tonight, and I want to see you in a sexy little dress"
We hung up saying our goodbyes, and I felt even sicker than I had before, because I believe I just made everything worse.
I looked at my clock and it read 2:30pm. I still had plenty of time, but I needed to relax before I did anything.
Kate exited the bathroom, and I went in for a nice long relaxing bubble bath, this time my phone was going to be close by, and Kate was standing watch to make sure no one comes in. If Stu was going to be childish, then so could I. I would ignore him too, and just concentrate on Randy.
About 2 hours later I went to rummage through my closet to find some thing to wear. I realized that I had way too many clothes, yet still nothing to wear. Then I saw it. It was a black spaghetti strap, flowing dress that had a slit on the right side that went half way up my thigh. I wore a pair of black wedges with a silver metal heart on the shoe buckle, I put on a silver chain necklace with a silver heart that dangled, and matching earrings, and finally I put a black ribbon head band in my hair, and lightly curling the ends of my golden hair. I had Kate come in and approve my attire, and she insisted on fixing my make up.
I had just finished, looking at myself in the mirror, when I heard a knock at my door. I glanced at my clock, and it was only 6:00, Randy was earlier than I thought he'd be. I smiled to myself, and quickly made my way to the door to greet him, but when I opened the door I was shocked to find it was not Randy. I stood there frozen and still, unable to say anything as fear took over my body.
"Hunny, I'm home!" A man in a black ball cap, a dark blue hoody, with a black tee underneath, and a pair of blue jeans, stood in the door way. It was Pete, the man I never thought I'd see again, smirking at me with roses in one hand and one hand behind his back, that he slowly pulled it out to reveal that he had a gun, that he was now pointing at me. I couldn't breathe as I literally saw my life flash before my eyes, and the worst part was no one would know because I couldn't make a sound. How could it all end like this? I had lied to Randy, I had hurt Stu, and Kate would never I was in trouble know, as she was giving me some privacy. I could hear nothing else but my own heart beat as he raised the gun to me. The truth is, the truth hurts and the things we want most in life can end up hurting us, and now I'll never know!
