"The way you look at me I know you didn't come to apologize"

 I knew from the moment I walked through the door. Her gaze was cold and hurt.

 I had spent the entire afternoon before she came planning how I was going to apologize but it really wasn't necessary. He knew his plans weren't to fix everything. What happened to us? What happened to those times when our fights ended in kisses and games? I would give everything for this to be so.

 But now, as his hands cover my wet cheeks, I know that officially everything has come to an end and I can't do anything. I stare into her beautiful hazel eyes, sometimes green and sometimes brown, how can I live without seeing those beautiful eyes for the rest of my life? 

"Louis ... please, let's not make this more complicated" she whispered an inch from my face. She was breathing hard from crying. 

"Do you really want this to end?" I dared to ask.

"Of course not. But we can't spend the rest of our lives fighting. It's not fair to me or to you. Also, maybe another woman is the right woman in your life-"

"Enough with that, Eleanor. No one could ever replace you. Is that so difficult to understand?"

"So, for the first time in these discussions, can you tell me why you cheated on me?" Eleanor spoke looking at the floor. 

"I- I can't. I don't wanna hurt you more..." 

"I don't know why I'm doing this" she sighed.

"If tomorrow you wont be mine, wont you give me to me one las time?" Oh, why are you wearing that to get out of my life? "

" Oh, if everything is going to end, will you stay tonight? "

" Yes tomorrow you won't be mine, could you give me one last time?

For the first time in the whole night I totally observed her, she was beautiful. Eleanor didn't need to have a pound of makeup to look gorgeous, or to wear the world's most expensive pearls and sparkling dresses to look like a queen. Her beauty was natural, without or with makeup, with a dress or a simple sweatshirt, she was just perfect. 

It was as if nature was making fun of me. As if he wanted to rub in my face that the beautiful woman in front of him was going to stop being mine. She was wearing one of her beautiful dresses, it was that dress that she loved her to wear, I wonder if I plan to wear the dress to break up with me. He couldn't stop looking at her legs. Her beautiful legs, I must say. Her face, bathed in tears and her flushed cheeks still, looked perfect. And her lips, how much I wish to kiss those beautiful and full lips. When we were together she couldn't stop kissing those lips for a second. 

How will I do now that she won't be with me? Probably collapse. "You are beautiful," she said.  

"Thanks" he smiled weakly. 

"So I guess it's officially the end?" 

"I guess" he whispered "Unless..." 

"Louis..."

 It was hard to focus on this. It was difficult to concentrate with so much pain. I just wanted to take her body in my arms, take her to our room and make love to her so many times that I decided to forget all this. 

"I suppose now we must fix everything about the house and the..." she stopped

 Louis  don't know if what he did next is a mistake.

 His lips danced slowly over hers. She reciprocated the kiss. Louis took her waist and pressed her closer to him and she was playing with my hair. For a moment, I forgot everything and concentrated on the delicious taste on her lips. As they parted, they glued our foreheads and breathed heavily. 

"Louis this is not correct..." she whispered 

"Els, I know this is all over and I can't do anything" he said wistfully "Do you think you could stay tonight?

 "What do you mean?"

"If tomorrow you will no longer be mine... could you give me one last time?"
