- Your POV -

The drive home was very quiet, Florence didn't feel like talking and I didn't want to push her into doing something she didn't want to do.

So, I drove in silence, and once we reached my house, I turned the car off and looked at Florence.

" You heard it," I said and she nodded.

" I did, you'd go back to her"

I nodded " I would, but I also know that if I did that, it would be the worst choice ever, I would only end up hurting her and you, and I don't want that "

" So, I'm your consolation prize?"

" Not at all, you are the woman I love, I love you Florence, and I'm messed up, I know that and this Scarlett situation is not easy, but I want you and I will do whatever I can to make this right, just tell me what you want to do, "

She opened the door and got out of the car.
" I want to go home, I want to move back to England, I... I can't do this, I thought I could be cool and act like you don't know that you still love her, but... But I can't... I really can't...I want to go home and I want to be as far as possible from Scarlett "

" Then let do it, let's go away, just you and me..." I said and took her in my arms.

" I love you, let me prove that, you said that you don't want words, you want actions, let's move away, we can go where you want, but I don't want to lose you"
I said and looked into her eyes, which were full of tears.

" W... What about the kids?"

" I will call my lawyer, we will get a custody deal, Rose is a big girl, she can come visit during summer break and I will fly to her from time to time, and I will call her daily, and Katie and I already have a custody agreement and we will just make it work, " I said and kissed her.

" Please... Please don't go, I will leave her for you, she will never hear from me again"

" I don't want that..." She whispered and I looked into her eyes.

" What do you want, "

" I want you to pick me, I want you to want me as much as you want her"

" I want you so much more, I asked you to marry me, you have a ring on your finger that proves that I want to be with you"

" Scarlett never got that, I take marriage seriously, if I didn't want you, I wouldn't ask you to marry me "

" Did you ever ask her? " She asked and I shook my head " no, Scarlett is not one for marriage... Trust me, she's just... The mother of my kids and my friend... You are the one I love "

" I got a job interview... In L.A... would you come with me? " She asked and I nodded.

" Yes, I just need to be back for Chris's wedding next month... " I said and she looked into my eyes.

" That's okay, call your lawyer? "

I nodded and kissed her " you got it, we are going to L.A "

She smiled " thank you... "

" You are welcome, and... What movie are you doing? "

" I don't know yet, but Zach Braff is directing it, "

" That's nice babe,"
