Prologue

      "You have no respect for me. You don't see the things that you do hurt me. How many times will I have to repeat myself for you to get it!?" I exclaimed. I was crying into my sleeves. Hiding my face.
I never wanted someone to understand me as much as I do now. When you love someone you expect them to love you the same. Be there the same way you are there for them.
I continued...
"I give you everything. I gave you everything. I gave you the last of what I had Leone. Everything I had in me. The fucking tears I cried. The fucking heart you continuously stomp on. The fucking money in my bank account. Leone! I gave you everything you could've ever wanted! The body you 'oh so' praised so much." I was basically screaming at this point.

The pain in my heart hurt to much for me to cry as hard as I wanted to. I felt like I was dry heaving. My mouth started to get dry and my head started to hurt.
I sat down.
Leone stood there staring blankly into space. I knew he wouldn't shed one tear. While I'm over here pouring my heart out to save a relationship that I wanted to work. I wanted it to work out. Leone was my first everything. My first love and first heart break. 
He finally parted his lips and he spoke.

"I don't understand why we can't have a conversation without you getting emotional. You're too emotional. You wear your heart on your sleeve and then expect everyone to roll with it. You talk too much." Leone's face stood blank. Hard as a rock.

He knew how hard it was for me to contain my emotions. When you feel like you're being stepped on the whole relationship what do you expect?
I felt dumb staying in a relationship where neither of us was getting any where.

"If you keep up with this I'm gonna leave you for real." He always threatened to leave ... but he never did. He didn't want too. He and I both knew that neither of us wanted to leave.
I stood up and grabbed my bag. I headed for the door of his bedroom and left. He didn't call for me and I didn't look back. I just left.

I got into my car and sat there. I took a deep breath and let it out in a huff. I didn't understand what I was doing wrong.
I started the car and headed home.

I did everything a girlfriend could have done. I've been faithful to him and him only. I was so loyal that I went to sleep thinking only about him. Waking up thinking about him. He was all I thought about. I made sure that he had the love he needed and wanted everyday.

I pulled up into my apartment complex, grabbed my bag and went in. That wouldn't be the last that I heard from Leone.
