Marriage Story • Scarlett Johansson x Y/N

Selfishness & Regrets

NEXT DAY

"Where are you going?" Scarlett asked, once Y/N gets down, all dressed up. "You didn't tell me you're leaving."

"I was about to, but you fell asleep as soon as we got home last night." Y/N answered, looking through her purse for her car keys. "And I'll be meeting my VS fam, they're thinking about this new collection and they want me to—"

"No." Scarlett said, interrupting Y/N.

Y/N looked up from her purse and frowned, "What do you mean, no?" She asked. "Please, I don't want to argue today." She added.

"We're not arguing," Scarlett said, shaking her head. "I'm just saying no."

"Why are you saying no?" Y/N asked.

"I thought you quit being an Angel?" Scarlett asked back, frowning.

"I did," Y/N said, "And I never said I'm an Angel again. I'm just going to meet them to see what this new collection is all about, and if I like it, I'll model it." She explained.

"No, Y/N!" Scarlett said, getting frustrated.

"Why?!" Y/N asked, getting frustrated too.

"You're not a model anymore!" Scarlett said, "We're trying to have baby, so just stay here!"

"What?!" Y/N shouted, "Are you hearing yourself right now?! Scarlett, we stopped trying to have a baby in months! We don't even make love anymore! All we do is just fucking! Just plain sex! We don't make love like we used to!"

Scarlett didn't say anything, what Y/N said is true. They did stopped making love. It's just plain sex, just fucking. No love. The realization broke Scarlett's heart.

"So if we won't do that, if we're not gonna try to have a baby, then I will appreciate it if you let me live my life." Y/N said as calm as she can because she's tired of arguing.

At that, Scarlett snapped again. "Live your life?! Aren't you living your life here with me?!" She said, the veins in her neck is very visible due to her loud shouting.

"I'm living your life, Scarlett!" Y/N snapped, she just can't win against Scarlett, "I don't know what happened but you stopped caring for what I think, for what I want! It's always you, what you want, what you need, and what you think is best! So, yes, Scarlett, I haven't been living my life!"

"Fine! Then fucking leave, Y/N!" Scarlett yelled, throwing the remote across the room. "And you know what? I don't fucking care anymore if you come back or not!"

Y/N's heart broke. "What?"

"You fucking heard me!" Scarlett shouted.

Y/N wiped the tears that managed to escape her eyes, "Fine! Be this way then maybe I won't really come back! You're such an asshole!"

"Well, you're a bitch, Y/N!" Scarlett shouted.

Y/N gasped, Scarlett never called her that. At least not when she's angry. "I'm a bitch?! Fine! I'm a bitch!"

"Yes, you are! So go and wear nothing while they take pictures of you!" Scarlett shouted.

Y/N gasped again, "Now you're really just being an asshole, I'm done with this. I can't with you, Scarlett. I don't know you anymore."

"I can say the same thing, Y/N!" Scarlett said while following behind Y/N. "I don't know you anymore!"

"Just shut up, Scarlett! I'm leaving! Calm yourself down while I'm not here, fucking hell!" Y/N said and groaned.

"You know what?! Don't come back!" Scarlett shouted.

Y/N turned around, furious. "Fine! I won't come back! You know what your main problem is? You've become so engrossed in your own selfishness that you no longer recognize it as selfishness anymore! You're such a fucking dick!"

"Every day I wake up and hope you're dead! Dead, like I hope you get an illness and then get hit by a car and just die!" Scarlett yelled, without thinking much about what she's really saying.

"Wow." Y/N cried, nodding her head. "You want me to die? That's how much you hate me?"

Scarlett gulped. "I-I..."

"Okay." Y/N chuckled weakly. "Thanks for that, Scarlett." She said, and walked away, slamming the door behind her.

"Fuck!" Scarlett yelled, kicking the couch. She heard Y/N's car driving away and that's when it all sink in.

Scarlett immediately grabbed her phone and tried calling Y/N, but to her dismay, all her calls are going straight to voicemail.

"Hi, this is Y/N Johansson, I can't answer your call right now but leave a message and I'll make sure to get back to you!"

"Baby, come on... answer me, please." Scarlett whispered to herself, still trying to call her wife.

"Fuck!" Scarlett cursed, Y/N's not answering her calls. She decided to leave a voicemail, "Baby, it's me... I'm so so sorry for everything that I've said. I didn't mean it, I don't want you to get hurt or worse, die. Please, come home? Let's talk, baby. Please. I promise, I'm calm. Just come home, my love. Please."

Scarlett took a deep and shaky breath, dropping herself onto the couch. She knows she said things that really broke her wife and she regret every words that came out of her mouth, she feels like an asshole.

She's right, I'm an asshole. Scarlett thought, closing her eyes, tears streaming down her face.
