It had been 2 weeks. 2 weeks sleeping alone in bed. 2 weeks eating dinner alone. 2 weeks without Elliot. I hadn't noticed how accustomed I had become to my new life with him. I missed him. I miss his huge bright smile. The way he would kiss me...everything. I want to see him. But he won't see me.
I had been back to the apartment but he refused to let me in. He even told the receptionist to not let me go up. He ignored my calls and texts never once answering them.
He missed the ultrasound that he had been looking forward to for weeks. He talked about it everyday. How we would go and he would be able to see his child. But even then he ignored my calls. Was this it? Was he really done with me?
Elliot's POV:
Today is the day he was having the ultrasound. The phone rang continually and text kept coming but I couldn't answer. I can't see him. I watched the clock hit 1 o'clock. This is when we were supposed to be there. I hung my head low. Tears slipped from my eyes. I want to go. I want to see my son. I want to see Dex. I have wanted to go to this appointment for weeks but now I can't.
"What are you crying about?"
A stern voice fled through my office.
"Nothing mother."
I sat up straight wiping my face and continued working.
"You better not be crying over that boy."
I shook my head.
"No. I'm not but...can't I just see him? Please?"
Her hands slapped down hard on my desk making me flinch.
"No! Do you what to lose your reputation along with this company's?! Not only were you seen in public with that worthless omega you got him pregnant. You have disgraced this family enough."
My blood boiled when she called Dex "worthless". Hes everything but that. I clenched my jaw. She's a wretched old witch.
"It's fine mother. Who cares?! No body! Did you get more than 5 comments about it?! No?! That's what I thought! All you care about is yourself. You hate me. Admit it. I'm not as smart as Toby and Theo I know that! You hate that your son that you always saw as worthless is actually running this company and doing a damn good job at it!"
I was up from my desk fuming mad. My mother stood perfectly still with her jaw clenched.
"You know nothing. You will never see him again do you understand?"
"No I don't! Let me see him or else."
She scoffed.
"Are you threatening your own mother? Besides you have nothing to threaten me with."
"I know you killed Josett."
She froze. Her eyes widened.
"I did no such thing."
I threw the folder of evidence I had been collecting across my desk at her.
"I know everything mother. You said you were going to have Dex "removed" from the situation. You meant killing him. You killed Josett when you found out that the kid wasn't mine. I have everything I need to put you in jail for the rest of your life. You killed my best friend and a child. You killed a child. And my best friend. You are a heartless cold blooded killer. Let me see Dex or I'll take this to the police."
She stood still. She didn't speak nor move. She finally picked up the folder flipping through the pages. When she realized I was telling the truth she nodded her head.
"Not get out. Bitch."
She turned on her heels and sped walk out of my office. I can see dex...I can see Dex! Wait...what am I supposed to say? I threw him out. What if he doesn't want to see me?
2 days later and I still can't figure out what to say to him. Do I call? Do I text? Do I go to his apartment? It was going on day 13 now. I haven't seen Dex for almost 2 weeks. I miss him so much. I want to hold him and kiss him or merely just sit in the same room as him. That's when I decided. I'm going to see him. Right now. I basically ran out of the apartment almost forgetting shoes.
On the drive there I'm surprised I didn't get a speeding ticke. I drove well over 20 miles faster than I was supposed to. I stopped to fast jerking me forward but I couldn't care. I skipped steps as I ran up the stairwell not wanting to wait for the elevator. I got to his door taking a deep breath before knocking.
When the door opened I expected to see my small omega but instead there was an alpha. A shirtless alpha. An alpha who was my height and build but he looked like a druggy. Who the fuck is this?
"Who is it?"
I heard Dex's voice from inside.
"It's your honey."
A smirk spread across his face. I was gone for 13 days and Dex is with someone else already?
"What?!"
I heard his small feet hitting the ground as he rushed over. He pushed the other alpha out of the way.
"What are you doing here Elliot?"
Dex was in nothing but a robe. Wow. Is this real? Did he really sleep with someone else?
"Elliot...why are you here?"
His voice was soft and kind. He isn't acting like someone who just got caught cheating. Is it really cheating though? Did we officially break up?
"I came to apologize and clear thing up but...looks like you have company."
"No! He can step out so we can talk or you know what? Lets go to yours, ok? Make sure you lock up when you leave."
He was talking to that other guy. I don't like him. Dex slipped on a pair of shoes and put a coat on not worrying about changing.
I stood there looking at the guy wondering where I had saw him. He looked so oddly familiar. Dex pulled me out of my thoughts yanking on my arm.
"Let's go."
I followed him the entire way to my car neither of us saying a word.
The drive was silent as well. I wanted to say something but I also wanted him to say something first. Dex sat picking at his finger nails.
"Stop that."
I put my hand on his.
"Dont pick like that."
Dex nodded and stopped messing with his nails. He is nervous. He always does that when he was really nervous.
"You don't need to be nervous."
"I'm not nervous I just don't know what to say."
"Then I'll start. Who was that guy?"
"Why did you break up with me? That's what you should be explaining first not worrying about that guy."
I sighed.
"I didn't break up with you."
"Yes you did. If I remember correctly your words were "get out. Out of my house and out of my life. That counts as breaking up."
I could tell he was getting upset.
"Why? Why Elliot? Why did you break up with me when we were happy? Why did you tell me to get out after you were so excited about our son? Why?!"
"Dex...I didn't want to break up with you. It was my..."
"Your what?!"
"My mother."
"So we are back to the whole parent thing! I thought you said you were going to handle it and that you were going to stay with me! I don't care if we were only separated for 2 weeks I missed you! I missed you so damn much. I missed your stupid smile and idiotic jokes and you. I missed you."
I pulled over stopping the car. I turned towards Dex seeing the tears that were forming in his eyes.
"God. I am so sorry. My mother...she threatened to "get rid of you".
"What the hell does the even mean?!"
"Dex...if I didn't break up with you she was going to kill you."
Dex sat frozen.
"You're just making stuff up now aren't you."
I shook my head.
"I wish I was but...I'm not. She did the same thing to Josett."
"She killed Josett and the kid?"
I nodded again.
"She found out that the kid wasn't mine and got rid of them both so I was worried she was going to...kill you too."
"And that's why you broke up with me?"
"Yes. I would have never broke up with you. I was just trying to keep you safe."
I hung my head. Tears starting to form in my eyes as well. I felt a pair of small hands on my cheeks lifting my head up.
"You Idiot."
Dex placed a kiss on my forehead laying his head on top of mine.
"Just tell me if something like this happens again. Ok?"
"Ok."
We sat like that for a little while longer before I remembered that guy.
"Can I ask about that guy now?"
"It's a bit of a long story so let's go home before I tell you."
Good. This is good. I have Dex and our son back. But I'm still worried about that man. What if Dex really did sleep with him.
