Elizabeth POV
When I eventually woke up, my eyes were sore, nose stuffy and had a killer headache.
Last night's visions came back like a bullet. Me screaming at Lewis, him throughing me against the wall aggressively, us standing in the rain, everything.
I walked to the bathroom took a pill, I walked down to the kitchen because I was starving. I walked pass Lewis who was sitting at the island, I didn't even look at him or acknowledge him.
I got breakfast and headed back to the room to eat. I stayed in the room for a few hours. I eventually fell asleep, by the time I woke up it was 11pm.
I walked downstairs to get something to snake on and Lewis was no where to be seen. It didn't surprise me either way.
I thought to myself that I needed answers, I couldn't be in a one sided relationship, so I packed all that I had at his house, left everything he bought me.
I sat on the couch, while my bags were by the door.
Eventually after a few house he came threw the doors
He noticed the bags and looked at me
"what's this?"
He gestured to the bags
"are you cheating on me?"
I asked him getting to the point
"what, you think I'm cheating on you? "
"well then aren't you I love with me anymore?"
"Elizabeth why would you even ask that, I fall a little inlove with you everyday, you literally the best thing that happened to me"
I closed my eyes listing to this
"well then what the fuck is it Lewis?, you distant, sour and a little to aggressive. I'm scared that I Don even know who you really are"
I said passing the living room, pulling at my hair.
He stopped me and said
"you know me better then anyone Elizabeth. And what I did last night was inexcusable, I shouldn't have pushed you like that or hold you like I did. It was extremely wrong of me and I'm so sorry, I'll spend my whole like making up for that."
"maybe out relationship has had its time, myne we need a brea......"
"dont finish that sentence, look I want to tell you something, I didn't think I needed to tell you, but I should now."
He said Moving abit away from me, I looked at him listening to what he has to say.
"so...... a few years back I fell inlove with my father's friends daughter . We had a good relationship a bit of a toxic one, now that I think about it. My family loved her, my mother would always ask her opinion on things. They even wanted us to get married, but we took our time getting to that point. We moved in together less then a year of dating "
Then I realized like the two of us. But I didn't say anything and he continued
"we got a dog together and everything was good. On Christmas I asked her to marry me. I thought it was about time I made this girl my girl forever. Shortly after she quite being my PA to focus on the wedding and I didn't mind and stuff. We agreed of stuff and I made exceptions on other stuff, because I know it would make her happy. And then on the day of our wedding I see her kissing some guy, I later found out it was the bartender from a club we love to hang out. My world was literally crushed Elizabeth "
He said looking at me now and continued
"later on I found out that her family used her to get to me so that when we become a family I wouldn't mind linking our family's business with there's. I stood her up at the wedding and took our honeymoon ticket and left. I knew I had to face reality again and came home, when I came home her family business went bankrupt and they left. I got pity lookes wherever I went, and that's when I become hard and people started fearing me. She fucking ripped my chest open took my heart and trampled all over it.
I never wanted to see her lieing, cheating face ever again, until that day when we had lunch with rose and Henry, I saw her leaving the bar area, but I didn't know if it was really her, so I followed her but couldn't catch up. And then I saw her again at the coffee shop near work, but I couldn't stop, so I'm not sure if it is her. I got grant to look into where she is, if she is really back or what. "He stopped I sat closer to him touching his arm softly
Lewis POV
" Lewis... "
She said softly
" no Elizabeth because of her I've been distant from you, mistreating you, you of all people don't deserve this Elizabeth "
I said with a tear rolling down
" you the best fucking thing that happened to me, you made me feel human again, you made me love again. You make me so fucking happy, I'd be repaying you my whole life "
" shhh Lewis"
She said getting onto onto my lap, giving me a hug. Oh God I needed this hug. She then started talking
(recommended to listen to the song on top while reading this part)
"I'll never leave you, IF you don't give me a reason too. I'll never cheat on you, it's not how I was raised and I can't see another person the way I see you. Knowing where I live what I do who my family is you still excepted us for who we are, for I am, you never once tried to change me for anyone, or anywhere we went I understand that you went threw something shitty, and I'm sorry you went there that Lewis, just remember you amazing just the way you are maybe a few twitches, but you perfect, amazing, caring, kind, patient, loving, there's so much more that you are. "
At this point I was looking into her big brown eyes that were full of purity and honesty and love, God I love this women. I thought to myself
" we make each other whole, and I wouldn't change you for the world. You mean more to me then my own life, Lewis, always remember that. I except your apology, but Lewis don't ever touch me like how you did, or talk to me the way you did. If you upset at something I did, then pull me one side and tell me about it. Also you know you can tell me anything, I'm not just your girlfriend, I'm your best friend, your therapist you cook "
She laughed and that made me smile a little.
But what she said was true I shouldn't have done what I did especially knowing she didn't like that." I'm whatever you want me to be Lewis. And I love you baby "
She said kissing me. Shortly she started grinding on me and then shortly there after we started taking each other's clothes off
And we went at it on the couch. When we were done we just layed in each other's arms
I took this opportunity to tell her
" I love you more Elizabeth. Thank you"
I then kissed her on her head. And we fell asleep.
