THE PACT 9/10

Me, you, her and him

-CHAPTER 9-

 

‘’But for you, I would leave it all.’’

 

Leaving work early Wednesday afternoon, I drive to Caleb’s school and pick Caleb up and drop him off at mum’s place. After that I head home and freshen up, clad in a bright yellow skater dress and a lime green cardigan, I don’t bother much with makeup, just a littlel-ip-gloss and eyeliner. My hair is pu-ll-ed back into a ponytail. Satisfied with how I look, I gr-ab my bag and leave. A number of thoughts rush throu-gh my mind as I drive to Ember restaurant, the restaurant is situated on the outSk-irts of town. Lee took me there once when I was pregnant, it’s a quiet secluded place- they serve very good food and drinks.

 

By the time I pu-ll up in front of the restaurant, I feel prepared and composed to face Lee. I step out into the cold evening pausing to take a long slow breath before marching to the entrance, at the door I pause to look for him. I sp©t him and he stands and waves at me, feeling a shiver brou-ght on just by the sight of him, I walk toward his table and he watches me all the way. As I get to his table, my stomach growls, reminding me that I didn’t have anything for lunch, I was so busy getting my reports done I didn’t have time to eat anything.

‘’Hey,’’ He says, grinning, he leans down and k!sses my cheek gently.

‘’Bashi Wandi, hey,’’ I nervously respond.

‘’You look beautiful,’’ he says softly.

‘’Thank you, you look good too, Meira is doing a good job dressing you up,’’ I jokingly say.

He laughs before pu-lling back a chair for me, when I sit, he sits too.

A couple of minutes later, the waitress walks to our table and takes our order.

‘’Pork ribs, potato salad and Hawaiian coleslaw for the both of us,’’ I say before I order us some c0cktails.

‘’How is Caleb?’’ He asks when the waitress leaves.

‘’He is good, I dropped him off at mum’s, you should have seen how excited he was when he saw his grandparents, he was all over the place I had to beg him to k!ssme goodbye.’’

‘’I thought he would whine about you leaving him behind after not being with him the whole day.’’

‘’He hasn’t spent time with mum for almost a week or two, I am sure he just misses her so much but when he gets tired and is about to sleep, he will start asking for me or you.’’

‘’You know it still feels like a dream that we have a child together.’’

‘’I know right, I remember the days I hated you and didn’t want to have anything to do with you, who knew you would one day you would make me the happiest woman on earth by giving me Caleb.’’

‘’Caleb is surely the best thing that happened to the both of us, we nee-d to make more babies together, just look at our child.’’

Before I respond, the waitress walks back to our table, places the food in front of us and walks away.

‘’I am starving!’’ I dig in almost immediately and for the next few minutes we eat and drink silently.

‘’So!’’ we say in unison when we are done eating.

‘’You go first,’’ he says.

I clear my throat, ‘’I am tired of pla-ying games Lee.’’

‘’What do you mean?’’

‘’I thought about everything you said yesterday and I don’t want to run anymore.’’

‘’Be clear with what you are saying.’’

I take a sip of my drink, ‘’I love you Lee, I have never st©pped loving you, not even for a single moment of the last two years, you have been the one my heart yearns for, you are still the one I think about every night before I go to sleep.’’

‘’You still love me?’’ He stares at me in shock, ‘’But I thought you said you love Dante now.’’

‘’I was lying,’’ I rasp. ‘’I have been pretending to love Dante, I thought I would forget you but it’s been ha-rd . I was a fool, I was a coward, I have been running my whole life because of what my father did but not anymore, I want to be with you.’’

‘’I still love you too,’’ he gro-an s, his arm holding mine. ‘’I have never st©pped loving you either.’’

‘’Never?’’

‘’Never,’’ he responds fiercely.

‘’What about Meira?’’

‘’She was just a cover up.’’

‘’I want to be with you, I want us to raise Caleb together, I want us to have more babies. I don’t even care if this is the right thing to do but I want to be with Lee, I miss you so much. I haven’t even been la-id since we broke up, I have been starving.’’

He laughs, ‘’I hope this isn’t about S-x though.’’

‘’This is beyond S-x, I love you Lee, I love you so much!’’

‘’I love you too, what next? What do we tell our p@rtners?’’

‘’We break up with them, I know it will hurt but can we be selfish for a moment and think about our happiness?’’

‘’Fine, I will break up with Meira as soon as I get home and you should do the same with Dante.’’

‘’I will, I promise. I will do it this night because I can’t wait to start life with you.’’

‘’Let’s get married for real after that and go away for our honeymoon- you me and Caleb.’’

‘’I love the idea of that.’’

‘’If this is a dream, then I don’t want to wake up.’’

‘’’Don’t wake me up either.’’

He opens his wallet, pu-lls out some money and places it on the table, ‘’let’s get out of here alre-ady.’’

He helps me out of my chair and we run out of the restaurant much to the surprise of everyone. When we get into his car and the door closes, he takes me by the w@!st and takes myl-ips in a de-ep tender k!ss. He k!sses me de-eply and hungrily for a long lingering moment. My hands roam throu-gh his hair and for a moment there I feel like I am in heaven.

God knows I haven’t felt like this in the last two years, well yes I know that Dante and I have k!$$£d a couple of times but none of those moments can compare to this, I feel like Lee is the only man I have ever k!$$£d. For the next few minutes Lee k!sses me with all the urgency of a man who has not t©uçhed his wife in two years.

 

As the k!ssde-epens, his hands slide up my b©dy and hike up my dress, with every t©uçh my whole b©dy seems to come alive. Moving aside my un-derwear, he begins to stro-ke my cl!t and I gr0@nin response then he in-serts two f!ngersinto me and begins to move them around inside. My whole b©dy responds with full-blooded pas-sion, for a moment there, my mind is lost in a total thri-ll of ecstasy. As he moves his f!ngersa little dee-per and ru-bs a little more insistently, a familiar feeling of bliss sweeps throu-gh me and I cry in ecstasy, ‘’Lee!’’ I breathe so ha-rd and tremble as I wra-p my arms around him while resting my head on his shoulder.

‘’Wow!’’ I murmur.

‘’I love you,’’ he says, running k!sses along my forehead.

‘’I love you.’’

THE PACT

Me, you, her and him

 

-CHAPTER 10-

 

‘’Thank you for tonight, I had a good time,’’ Kristian says. We are standing in front of her house. I drove her here in my car, we left her car parked at the restaurant. We will get it tomorrow.

‘’You are sure you don’t want come inside?’’

‘’God knows I want to come inside with you but like I said, I want you to break up with Dante first before I do that.’’

‘’Babe!’’ She wra-ps her hands around me, ‘’so you will leave just like that?’’

The entire night she has been asking me to have S-x with her but I am not doing that until I know she is permanently mine again.

‘’You know I love you so much and I am dying to make love to you right now but let’s do the right thing first.’’

She rolls her eyes, ‘’you will leave me hanging? Just like that?’’ she pouts.

I laughs ‘’At least I made you ¢v-m tonight, isn’t that enough to re-lease all the tension that has been building–.’’

‘’Two years babe, two years, I have been starving.’’

‘’That’s what you get for being proud.’’

‘’That’s not even funny.’’

‘’I know.’’

‘’You know a quic-k quic-kie won’t hurt.’’

‘’Babe, I love you so much but we are not doing this now,’’ I pu-ll her close against my b©dy and k!ssher long and ha-rd with a pas-sion that makes her b©dy tremble, she puts her arms around my n£¢k, when the k!ssde-epens I pu-ll away from her, she is breathless.

‘’I think I should leave now.’’

‘’Fine, I will wait.’’

‘’I know you will, good night babe.’’

‘’Good night, call me when you get home.’’

‘’Okay.’’

‘’I love you.’’

‘’I love you too.’’

She walks into the house and I walk back to my car, get in and drive off.

When I get home, I find Meira waiting up in the be-droom, clad in nothing more than a red lacy lingerie, suspender belt and red high heel shoes, I wordlessly stare at her b©dy, Meira is a beautiful woman and her b©dy is perfect in every s-en-se, any man would be lucky to have her, It’s a pity my heart belongs to another and I can’t love her the way she wants me to. She walks up to me casually and puts her hands around me before she k!sses me on myl-ips and steps back.

‘’How was your meeting?’’ she asks.

‘’It was okay, how have you been?’’

‘’Great, I have been waiting up for you, I missed you.’’

‘’I am glad you waited, we nee-d to talk,’’ I say, changing into my pajamas.

‘’About?’’

‘’Us.’’

‘’Okay.’’

She sits at the edge of the be-d and I sit in a chair next to the be-d.

There is a brief silence before I clear my throat and say, ‘’I have been thinking about us and—.’’

‘’And what?’’ She shoots me a quizzical look.

‘’I think we should break up,’’ the words rush out of my mouth before I could st©p them.

‘’Kristian?’’ she mumbles. ‘’I sniffed you just a minute ago and I could tell you have been with her.’’

‘’I am sorry Meira, I wanted things to work between us but you know the heart wants what it wants.’’

‘’And it’s Kristian that your heart wants? It’s always been her right?’’

‘’I can’t keep lying to you, I am tired of pretending that I am over her, I love Kristian and It would be unfair for me to marry you while being in love with another woman,’’ I swallow ha-rd before I continue, ‘’You are brilliant and beautiful, any man would be lucky to have you as their wife.’’

‘’Any man but not you?’’ Her voice trembles and for a moment there I notice that she wants to cry but she recovers and quietly says, ‘’I un-derstand Lee, I un-derstand perfectly what this is, you don’t have to apologize. You go after the woman you love I will be fine, you don’t have to worry about my wellbeing, thank you for the wonderful time we spent together.’’

‘’You are not angry with me?’’

She laughs, ‘’Angry? No I am not. Hurt yes but not angry.’’

‘’Oh.’’

‘’It hurts but I love you enough to let you go, I want you to be happy.’’

‘’Thank you so much.’’

‘’You are always welcome Lee, always.’’

I didn’t think this would be so easy, I thought she would whine and fuss about this.

‘’You can use the be-droom tonight, I will sleep in the spare be-droom.’’

‘’You don’t have to, I will start packing my stuff right away.’’

‘’You can’t wait until morning?’’

‘’No! I better leave this night or else I will never leave,’’ she laughs.

‘’Okay.’’

‘’Give me a few minutes and I will be done.’’

‘’Sure,’’ I walk out of the be-droom and text Kristian, ‘’Hey babe, I have done my p@rt, I will be waiting to hear from you.’’

‘’How did it go?’’

‘’Fine, she is packing her stuff right now.’’

‘’She didn’t throw any tantrums?’’

‘’No, she was actually very calm.’’

‘’That’s a first.’’

‘’I know right.’’

‘’I have texted Dante, him and I will talk tomorrow.’’

‘’Okay, keep me upd@t£d.’’

‘’Sure, I love you.’’

‘’I love you too.’’

After ending the call, I pour myself a cold beer and turn on the television. After going throu-gh the channels for a few minutes, I settle for a soccer game between Barca and some Uruguayan team. I am on my second beer when Meira walks out of the be-droom with two of her suitcases, standing up, I help her carry them to the car outside.

‘’Thank you for the time you spent with me, I wish you the best in your future endeavors.’’

‘’You are welcome, I wish you and Kristy the best, I hope your marriage works this time around.’’

Then I pu-ll her into a hvg embr@ce, ‘’Good bye Meira.’’

‘’Goodbye Lee,’’ she whispers.

When we pu-ll away from each other, she gets into the car and I watch her drive out of my compound. I feel bad for doing this but this is the best, I am sure she will find someone soon.
