Erich's eyes widened as he saw Adele stood at the door.

He wasn't expecting to see her.

As Adele realised who it was, she went to slam the door. His foot stopped her.

"Adele, wait."

She pushed the door harder and locked it.

Her body sunk down in front of the door as she laid her head into her knees.

"Go away Erich."

Adele's voice was loud enough for him to hear, she knew that he wouldn't go away that easily.

"Please let me in."

"No."

There was a silence.

Deep down, Adele knew that she needed him back. She loved him and throughout the past few weeks, that feeling hadn't changed.

She stood up and slowly opened the door.

Erich was leaning against the wall staring at the ceiling, his eyes trailed to hers as she opened the door.

"Are you going to let me in?"

Adele nodded.

Very quickly, her entire personality shifted.

Adele Monroe was not weak, so why would she act it?

She straightened her posture and fell back to her confident self.

"What do you want to say?"

"Look I listened to what you said that night. You were right, what I did was absurd and unfair. But please know that I've changed. I'm not a complete dick anymore."

If it hadn't have been for Adele seeing Erich in the mall with Cassidy the other day, she wouldn't have believed him. But the man stood in front of her seemed genuine.

Allowing Erich to come floating back into her life was too easy. If he was a changed man, he would work for her, he would kiss the ground she walked on. If not, surely what he had just said was complete fiction.

"What do you want me to say Erich? Well done? Congratulations? You don't deserve any of that, especially from me."

Adele turned to walk towards the couch, the painful cramp that was growing inside her was strong. She winced at how intense the feeling was.

"Adele are you okay?"

"Do I look okay? My ex boyfriend is stood trying to win me back, I have cramps and I look like fucking shit so no I really don't think I am okay Erich."

Her tone was sharp and it clearly inflicted its pain onto Erich.

At some points, Erich forgot how fiery Adele could be. It was a trait of hers that he found incredibly attractive, not so when he's on the receiving end of it.

"We need to work this out, me and you are meant to be. It's as if we're made for each other."

"Who did you fuck this time to figure that out?"

Erich deserved that, and he knew it too.

"I actually haven't slept with anyone since you"
