Affair to Remember

Thirty

Demi | Mature

"I'm fine, Jesse. Stop fussing" I shoved his hand away from my cheek, starting to get frustrated.

"Demi, you..."

"I know, okay, you don't have to say anything. Yes, I was just assaulted by my fucking husband but I don't wanna talk about it" the sound of my doorbell made me jump. I dropped my head into my hands as Jesse turned to go and answer it. I released a breath, glancing up only at the sound of footsteps. Jesse stepped into the kitchen with two police officers behind him. They gave me a nod before they introduced themselves.

"Hi Demi. I'm Officer Harvey and this is Officer Jenkins. We were wondering if you wanted to give a statement."

"No. I-I just want him to leave me alone."

"Demi..." I shook my head, refusing to meet Jesse's gaze as he stepped in front of me.

"No, Jesse. I-I just want a restraining order" the officers nodded their understanding. "He was never aggressive before this. He's never hit me before. He's never..."

"But he's capable of it, Demi. You just saw that, he just proved that. He could easily do it to someone else" I bit on my lip as I glanced down at the floor. "Demi..."

"I just want a restraining order."

"We'll be in contact with you, Demi" I nodded, flashing them a thankful smile. They saw themselves out, a quiet settled around us as the front door closed. I stared down at my hands as I played with my fingers.

"Demi..."

"I don't wanna talk about it, Jesse. If you don't wanna drop it, please just leave" I stared up at him as I waited for him to respond. "I'm already gonna have to go through a divorce. I don't wanna have to go through a case for abuse either."

"He's never hit you before, is that true or did you lie?"

"You might not believe it but it's true. He did find out that I'd just cheated on him, I can't..."

"Demi, that doesn't justify his actions. Under no circumstances would I ever hit a woman, no matter how pissed I was" I shoved passed him and reached for a glass so I could grab some water. "He shouldn't have hit you. Yes, you may have cheated on him but he..."

"Can you stop?" he released a breath, shoving his hands into his pant pockets. "I get it, Jesse, okay? But I ain't changing my mind. I don't ever plan on seeing him again and a part of me is completely heartbroken about that. I used to dream of having my entire future with him but then you came along."

"So, this is my fault?"

"Yes" tears began to burn the back of my eyes. "If you hadn't have come along, I would still be married. I wouldn't have ever cheated. We'd probably have a kid and..."

"You didn't want a fucking kid, Demi, you were still on the pill" I jumped slightly at his raised voice. "You weren't happy when I came along. I'm fucking sorry I moved into the house next door. I'm sorry I was just living my fucking life. I didn't plan for this, Demi. I didn't think I'd fall in love with a married fucking woman. If only I could turn back time."

"You pursued me. You basically pressured me to fuck you and I fucking did because I was obviously desperate" a tear rolled down my cheek but it just fuelled my anger.

"So, I was just a quick fuck to you?" I was taking deep breaths, trying to stop my heart from breaking all over again.

"I never said that."

"But you were insinuating it."

"Don't twist my words, Jesse. I fell in love with you too and I never expected that. I thought I'd be married to Wilmer for the rest of my life. I didn't realise how unhappy I was until I met you" tears poured down my cheeks. I was surprised to find that his own eyes had welled up.

"I think we need to take a break from each other" I wanted to argue back but I knew that it was probably for the best. "We need to figure out whether we want anything more than just sex" I glanced down at my hands as my vision blurred. "I do love you, Demi, but I think you need a break from relationships" I couldn't agree more.

"I-I do love you too" he stared at me for a moment and then took a step towards me, cupping my face in his hands and pressing his lips to mine. The kiss very quickly became heated as I slid my hands down his sides and I unfastened his pants. He groaned against my lips as I managed to wrap my hand around his length. He very quickly hardened in my grip.

"Mmm, fuck" he took a hold of my hips, pushing me back until I reached the kitchen counter. He hooked his fingers around my leggings, pushing them down my legs. His hands slid down my ass and then he gripped my thighs, lifting me up and onto the counter. I gasped slightly from the cold tile against my ass. I moaned, dropping my head back as his fingers slid along my damp slit. I whimpered as the familiar tightening occurred in my stomach. My body shivered as Jesse's lips pressed against my neck. I slid my fingers through his curls, moaning into his neck as he eased a finger into me.

"Shit!" the harder his fingers thrust into me, the louder my moans became. It gradually became harder to hold back. "I-I'm gonna..."I briefly blacked out as I hit my high. I didn't even get to calm down from my climax before Jesse was pushing his erection into me. His hands held my ass, my arms wrapped around his neck as he pounded into me, breathy moans slipping from my lips as he groaned down my ear.

"Fuck, Baby" I began to nibble and suck at the skin under his ear, tears burning my eyes as I tightened my grip around him, savouring this moment together. "Mmm, Demi!" he slid his hand along my neck until I was forced to pull away from him. He cupped my chin in his hand, continuing to gently thrust into me, his other hand holding onto my ass. He lightly kissed away the tear that rolled down my cheek, pressing kisses all over my face until I managed a smile. I dropped my head back as he began to kiss down my neck, tangling his fingers in my hair. "I-I'm close" I clamped around him, his heavy breaths hit my neck making my spine tingle. His thrusts slowed as he shot his load, his grip tightening on my ass. "Fuck, Demi!" I began to play with his light curls, trying to calm down from my high. He pressed a soft kiss to my neck, eventually sliding himself out of me. "I will always love you, don't ever forget that" I swallowed hard as a lump formed in my throat.

"You-You should go" I kept my gaze down as he moved away from me. I clamped my eyes shut, tears flowing down my cheeks. It wasn't until I heard my front door close that I finally allowed myself to cry, dropping my head into my hands.
