Song to listen to while reading: Dreaming with a broken heart by John Mayer

| Diana's POV |

A week later

The kids and I are in the family room early in the morning awakened by Cameron. I take a quick glance for the 10th time in 2 minutes.

"I can't be awake at this time, I need my beauty sleep or else i'll start to get bags under my eyes." Stephanie complains for the 50th time.

"You don't need any beauty sleep, you're already ugly enough." Lance laughs historically teasing his sister.

"Hey, enough. Lance apologize." I say breaking the mini argument between Steph and Lance. He soon apologizes but then makes another comment but I ignore him this time as Cameron walks in after waiting for him over like 26 hours. He was filled with smiles and it was starting to bother me.

He hands us three a sheet of paper with things on them.

"What is this?" I ask not even bothering to read them.

He doesn't say anything and all of sudden Stephanie and Lance start screaming and making noise. Mostly Stephanie.

"We're fucking going to Dubai!!!" she screams and I turn to look at her knowing I don't like her cussing."Sorry."

I take my time to look and read the paper, and what Stephanie said was on here. I try as much as possible to hide my excitement.

"We can't afford this." I say looking up at Cameron, putting the paper on the coffee table. Cameron, Lance and Stephanie look at me with confusion.

"Yeah we can baby, don't worry about it." he replies and I shake my head.

"Well count me out cause I'm not going." I get up, realizing their shocked expression. I walk into the kitchen, getting a big bowl from the cabinet. A measuring cup for the all-purpose flour and the milk. A table spoon, from the utensils drawer.

I hadn't realized that Cameron followed me into the kitchen until he spoke protested.

"What do you mean, count you out? This is a family trip."

I pull out the rest of the things that I need to make a pancake.

"Did you hear me correctly, I said I'm not going." I look at him repeating myself, feeling like these past few days.

"Why not Diana?" he asks, and this time I wanted to yell at him but I couldn't because I knew the kids were next door so they'll hear us."If it's because of the other night I yelled at you for coming home late... I'm really sorry."

He looks at me with those eyes, noo... not those eyes.

"Don't do that." I plead. He walks closer to me and wraps his arms around my waist.

I hate when he does that especially when I'm mad at him.

Wait..... why am I mad at him again?

Because you went through his messages AND saw that he's having an affair with you..Plus he acts as if nothing is wrong but in actual fact there.

"Stop it Cameron." I say moving his arms away from me. He let's go standing beside me

"Please, just one trip." he pleads and I stare at him.

Do I really want to spend 2 weeks in Dubai with a man who is cheating on me?

"Fine."

A smile curved onto the side of his lips. He kissed me on my cheek.

Why do I always keep on falling for him all over again.

Earlier that day

The door to my office was open and I hear voices. Cameron's voice and it sounds like he's talking to somebody on the phone.

It isn't my intention to eavesdrop on the phone conersation, but I just had too.

"Noo, Kirsten. I've made things worse, my best friend doesn't even talk to me. He doesn't believe me." he spoke into the phone.

Kirsten? Why is he talking to her? And Nash?

I peek my head through the room seeing his back facing me.

"It's bad enough that I'm cheating behind my wife's back but I slept with you and Nash caught me."

Oh my god.

H-he slept with her... I put my hand over my mouth crying not to make noise.

I didn't know I was crying until I felt pain in my chest, it was hurting really bad. I tried soo hard to push back the tears.

"Don't ever call this number again. we are through! Fuck you." he cusses into the phone and hangs up. I hear him sigh.

He turns out seeing that I was listening in his conversation the whole time and his eyes get wide, also he notices my eyes filled with tears. Guiltiness was written all over his face and his eyes showed hurt.

"Diana..." he speaks softly walking towards me but I step back. I put my hands up to signalling for him to stay away. "Please let me explain."

"Get out Cameron!" I yell at him, my voice cracks in between due to the fact that I was sobbing but I didn't care right now.

"Please.. I can exp-" He walks closer to me.

"I SAID GET THE HELL OUT OF THIS HOUSE, I DON'T WANT TO SEE YOU AGAIN." I raise my voice even more. What doesn't he understand?

He looks at me with pity and sorrow but at this moment I don't even care anymore. He walks out of my office and I try to hold back my tears. The sound of the front door slamming made me knew that he was gone.

I shut my eyes feeling a huge pain in my chest and tears streaming down my cheeks.

I lean against the wall, crying my eyes out. My head was in my hands and I just keep crying and I can't stop. All the tears I have been holding back till the day I read the messages, they have finally come out.

I didn't realize that I have been on the floor till I hear the sound of Stephanie and Lance.

"Mom?..." Stephanie says softly with a bit of confusion and no clue what was going on.

The warmness of Stephanie sitting beside me on my right while Lance was on my left.

They obviously heard the yelling so Stephanie rests her head against my head while Lance's head was on my shoulder. They both touch my my arm.
