Last Night - Sam’s Apartment
Laying next to her feels right - I think. My arm propping up my head, as she rests her head on my bare chest.
“Why am I not here with Alyssa? She’s there laying next to him - she’s cheating on me! Well, is she? After all, I’m here with my wife.”
My eyes hurt from my thinking. She rubs my chest and turns to look at me.
“What do you think?” She says.
“About what?” I haven’t listened to anything she has said.
“Lately Samuel, you’re here but you’re not here. Why’s that?”
I say nothing, mainly because there are no words that would suffice at this moment. To say something right now is to lie. I close my eyes, take a deep breath, and turn to smile at her.
“I’m sorry,” I laugh and tickle her cheeks.
“I love you,” She says.
“I love you too Mandy,” My mouth utters a lie.
She turns around and begins to snore a few minutes later.
“Alyssa,” My mind gravitates towards. “I miss you.”
Alyssa’s Apartment - Last Night
I sit on the edge of the bed until he grabs my waist and pulls me closer to him. I think about Sam. That’s all I can think about but he can’t tell. Justin kisses me and I indulge myself in his touch.
“I hope you had a great day hun,” He kisses my forehead.
“I did, hope you did too,” I smile. I did have a good day, great in fact, at the hotel with Sam, enjoying time together.
“What did you do on your day off?”
“I hung out with a couple friends,” I turn towards him, reaching in for a kiss.
“I see,” Justin replies.
I smile and he smiles as well. We talk and then read, before making out and turning in for the night.
The Day After
In the hotel room, Alyssa looks out the window, and begins to blush as Sam walks towards the building.
When he walks in, he finds her laying on the bed, in the enticing outfit he purchased for her a couple weeks ago.
Sam begins to undress himself, and she gets up and walks towards him. She kisses him, looks into his eyes, “Did you have sex with Mandy last night?” She asks.
He moves his head away, “I did not,” and walks away from her. “You?”
“No, I didn’t.” She walks towards the bed and sits on the edge.
“What are we doing Alyssa?”
“I don’t know. I keep telling myself that if he found out, he would not be okay. We have a history together. What about you and Mandy?”
He sits next to her on the edge of the bed, “I think about how Mandy and I met in college and how much she loves me, she shows me everyday.”
“And I love you too Sam.”
“I love you, Alyssa.”
“So, what do we keep doing this for?”
“Love? You know I do love you Alyssa.”
“Yet I feel like you cheat on me with her. I don’t know what to think anymore. I can’t get you out of my mind,” she lays down and moves towards the headboard. “Make me feel better?” She squeals.
He turns around, grins and moves towards her, “I love you,” he reaches for her lips and begins to lock his tongue with her.
They have sex, and afterwards lay staring at each other.
“I’ll end things with Mandy,” Sam utters.
Alyssa blushes, “I’ll do the same with Justin.”
They turn on the TV, cuddle and watch for a while. After a few blissful hours together, they check out at the front desk, and walk out of the hotel.
Sam walks into his home 20 minutes later and meets Mandy in the living room in one of her lingerie. She invites him to bed where they make love.
Alyssa, after 30 minutes of driving, walked into her apartment to see Justin sitting on their couch with a suitcase. As she says hi, he utters “I’m leaving you.”
“What? Why?” Alyssa asks.
“Haha,” he laughs, “I’m not an idiot to know you’ve been cheating on me. I’m done.”
“Great, this is easy then,” Alyssa gets on the floor and laughs. She watches him get up and walk out of the door. A little bit of tear falls on her phone as she opens it up to text Sam.
“Justin’s gone. Did you let Mandy know?” She texts, and continues to let the tears fall.
Mandy hears the ding, and with Sam in the shower, she opens his phone. The texts, the video, the pictures, her eyes open wide to the betrayal of her husband, and she begins to cry.
She locks the phone, wipes the tears from her eyes, and when Sam walks in from the bathroom, he smiles.
She reaches for him, “I love you Sam,” she says as she looks into his eyes.
“I love you too baby.”
“End your affair and I’ll forgive you!”
Sam says nothing. He sees the serious look on Mandy’s face but says nothing. “End it, and I’ll forgive you,” she repeats.
“Okay,” he grabs his phone, “I’m done Alyssa,” he replies and blocks her.
“I fucking hate you,” Mandy slaps him. She continues until her hands begin to hurt. “I love you and this is what you did to me. I fucking hate you!” She laments. “And I’m fucking pregnant with your child, you piece of shit.” She hits him again and walks out of the room.
Sam lays still, and begins to chuckle, “What a shit - bastardly way to end this story.”
The End!
