I grabbed her head and pulled it back as I stroked into her. “I love you-you know that don’t you baby?” I waited until her eyes cleared on mine.
“Yes.” The way she said that one word. She’s so fucking sweet sometimes it makes my heart hurt. Pulling her head down to mine I kissed sweet enough to give credence to the words.
For all the things she made me feel, for all the newness she’d brought to my life, the light. I loved her. She’d never know how hard it was for me not to be with her all day everyday. How hard it was for me to walk away.
I fucked until she came then came in her for the third time that day. She clung to me the way she always do when it’s time for me to go, twisting the knife deeper in my gut. I held onto her for as long as I could before I really needed to go. Promising myself that I’d make it up to her.
I got dressed while she watched from the bed looking fresh and well fucked. That ought to keep her for at least the next few hours. Once I was done I walked over to the bed and lifted her face to mine. “I will see you later baby, promise.” I kissed her lips once before heading for the door but not before seeing the pleased smile on her face.
Once outside I headed for my ride and hopped on. The neighborhood was quiet this time of day. Most everyone was at work or school. With one last look back where I knew she’d be watching out the window, I waved goodbye, pulled out and left. But only my body was gone, my mind and heart was back there with her.
Funniest fucking situation for a man my age! I’d already done the happily ever after thing, or at least I thought I had. But my ex lost her damn mind in the third act and I said fuck it. I had my kids, my crew and the little bit of green I’d accumulated over the years and that was enough.
It was until I met her, threw my ass for six. I’ve always steered clear of her type. The hot blonde with the rack and the tight ass that everybody else wanted, reminds me of that song ‘when you’re in love with a beautiful woman’. Not that my ex was a dog, but she wasn’t no supermodel type either.
We’d met right before I went into the service like a hundred years ago. It wasn’t love at first sight, though I’d grown to love Christine and she me. We got together, I got the news while I was deployed that she was pregnant, and we got hitched my first week back. My son was born a few days later.
Two years later my daughter was born and we had a good little thing going. That was until my last deployment two years ago when she decided to find herself in another man’s bed. Bitch told me she was lonely. I’m out there putting my ass on the line to keep her ass safe and she’s lonely. By the time she came to her senses and remembered she was married with children, the ink was dry on the divorce papers.
She’s done everything under the sun to get me to forgive her; I just don’t have it in me. I’m a man of honor, when I give my word I mean that shit and I have no respect for anyone who breaks their word so easily.
In the beginning she tried laying that shit on me. It was my fault that she jumped under the first swinging dick to give her the eye, fuck that. I was good to her, didn’t know any other way to be. When I’m in I’m all in and she knew that shit better than anybody.
She fucked up royally and she knows it, the whole damn town knows it. She’s lost her friends and even some of her own family members refuse to even look at her any more. I guess she didn’t take into consideration how this town feels about its service men and women.
Now she wants to put us back together, she’s out her fucking mind. The judge gave her six months to find a place so for now we’re still in the same space and for my kids’ sake I treat her like she’s still breathing, but whatever I had for her died a quick death when I found out about her betrayal.
I’d cut my losses and moved the fuck on with my life, throwing myself into work. A few of the guys from my squad and I had stuck together when we came home, deciding that since we worked so well together in hell it would be a cakewalk stateside.
