Lorena couldn't but tap her foot anxiously, she had her eyes still on the door that Diana left through a few minutes ago. Neither Andy nor Lorena has broken the silence, Andy being too mad to while Lorena felt confused and on top of that she didn't even get to tell Diana about the woman at the gym so this visit was pretty much all for nothing. Lorena watched as Andy paced in the kitchen putting her hand on her head frustratingly, she let out a loud groan and walked over towards Lorena and sat on the couch, the same one that Diana was sitting at.
"Why? You said you wanted to let her come to us, we deserved for her to reach out to us first. I'm just confused, well also hurt but mainly confused. Lorena, please explain." Lorena started to reach out to grab Andy's hand but pulled her hand back at the last second deciding instead to let her hands rest in her lap and started twiddling her fingers to distract her hands from wanting to reach out to Andy again. "At first I did it because I knew that she needed to know about the woman at the gym."
Andy rolled her eyes and sat back against the couch. "Listen to me, Andy, it's huge that someone is running around with strength like Diana, and don't you think that deserves some attention?" Lorena knows that she is full-on pleading with Andy but she doesn't care, because this is important. Andy sighs and runs her hands through her hair in frustration at Lorena. "Who cares about that woman Lorena, don't you see what you are doing?" Lorena shakes her head confused at what Andy is trying to get at.
"Listen, honey." Andy leans forward and grabs Lorena's hand rubbing them softly. "You are trying to avoid what happened, you broke a little when it happened but you haven't given yourself really a time to be mad. You've been strong for me and I appreciate that but it's time to be upset at Diana instead of trying to solve everything and giving her excuses. You allowed me to feel what I feel so why can't you allow yourself to feel all the emotions too." Andy puts her hand on Lorena's cheek and caressed it gently, making her sigh and turn her head away but before Andy could pull her hand away Lorena grabbed it and squeezed it tightly.
Lorena sighed and pushed some of her blonde hair behind her ears. "I get it, I do. I just want to go back to a time when this didn't happen. She told me that she didn't realize that she wished for Steve but she was thinking about him at the time and that he will always be her first love but I just keep thinking why weren't we enough? We did everything right, we have safe words, we're honest with each other. We would go to the ends of the earth for each other but she still cheated on us." Lorena put her hands on her face and her lip quivered, Lorena heard Andy sigh and scoot closer before bringing the blonde woman in for a hug.
"It's okay, you need this. It's no one's fault but her own. We are enough Lorena, Diana had a choice and she made her choice, Diana slept with Steve. It wasn't us, it was her." Andy leaned up and kissed Lorena on the top of her head. Lorena sniffed and pulled back so she can see Andy's face, she reached up and rubbed Andy's cheek softly. "At least we have each other, I couldn't imagine my life without you." Andy pressed her lips to Lorena's once she was done speaking.
"I really appreciate you, you know. It's going to be hard to realize it because even after that talk I still am having a hard time realizing that we didn't do anything wrong, it was Diana but it's hard to believe at times because we spent three years together as a couple all down the drain." Lorena sighs as she stands up from the chair and walks towards the kitchen, she hears footsteps behind her, and she knows that Andy is walking up behind her so she doesn't jump when Andy's arms go around her waist.
Andy presses a kiss to the spot behind her ear. "It's going to take some time love, it's not something that we can get over quick even though we feel like we should. We lost the love of our life, we are allowed the feel this way no matter how long it takes. Sure she talked to you and she explained to you a little bit but honestly, that's not enough. She hasn't come to both of us which is important because It isn't just a two-person relationship, it's three." Andy turned Lorena around against the bar making Lorena chuckle as she was now facing Andy. "That is true, one person isn't enough. Hopefully, she realizes that she should talk to us both." Andy nods slightly, before pressing her lips together thoughtfully. "I love you, Lorena, I hope you know that and whatever happens. I will always love you."
As Andy pulled her in closer for a kiss Lorena can't help but smile slightly as she pulls back so she can speak. "I love you too, and I always will."
