Obsessed (Blake Griffin)

Chapter 13

Melanie's Pov

Blake caught me before I left, and talked me into coming back to the hotel with him. The ride back was silent, all I wanted to do was punch him in the face. Blake led me up to his new room since the old one was a crime scene. We walked in and just looked at each other.

"Mel-"He started but I cut him off

"How could you do this me?!" I snapped

"Mel I promise you I didn't cheat on you, let me explain."

"Explain what? How you've been lying to me? How I trusted you even with my suspicions. I knew something was up."

"What are you talking about?"

"You think I don't remember you coming home smelling like some cheap ass perfume the other day and the lipstick on your collar."

"Mel just let me talk please."

"Oh now you want to talk? You weren't trying to talk the other day when she came on to you."

"Mel come on you know me."

"No I don't! The Blake I know would have been honest with me. The Blake I know would have never kept something like this from me. But this guy I have no idea who you are."

"Melanie."

"If I hadn't come out here would you have even told me?"

"Of course I would have told you." He answered

"Like you told me about that night at the club, or the parking garage, oh and my favorite one is her quitting. What the hell was that about? You had every opportunity in the world to tell me and you didn't."

"I didn't know how to tell you about it without this happening."

"Blake I'm your wife! You're supposed to trust me for better or worse that was the deal!" I snapped

"Mel this girl is sick! Nothing has ever happened between us." He said as my tears start flowing

"Have I ever asked you for anything? Have I ever asked you for anything! All that I have ever asked of you was to be honest with me!" I snapped

"I have been honest with you!" He snapped back

"No you haven't, you should have told me what was going on from the beginning. You let this happen you let this go on!"

"Mel." He said reaching for me

"Don't touch me! Did you even think about me or your children?" I snapped 

"Children?" He asked

"Yes when you walked out on me the other day I was trying to tell you that I'm pregnant."

 "Mel." He said reaching for me again

"Don't! When you get back home I want you out of my house."

"No Mel baby please don't do this."

"I didn't you did this." I said grabbing my bag then I left 

"Mel please." Blake called but I just kept walking. I drove back to the airport where the plane was still waiting I boarded then told them to take off. Once I was alone the tears started coming and I couldn't stop them. When I got back home I was drained physically and emotionally, and I could feel my morning sickness begin to kick in. I sat down in the living room, I looked at the wall seeing a picture of us on our wedding day. I instantly felt anger I got up and grabbed the picture off the wall and threw it across the room. Callie rushed downstairs to see what was going on.

"Mel when did you get back? What happened?" She asked I looked at her and started crying again

"Mel, what happened?" She asked coming over and hugging me. Then she walked me over to the couch and sat down. I calmed myself down enough to tell her everything, when I finished she looked at me in disbelief 

"I can't believe him! Oh Mel."

"I want to hate him so much Callie but I can't."

"Because you still love him, just stick to your guns for now. Maybe this time apart, will do you guys some good?"

"I hate men." I spat

"Me too."

"We should just date each other." I joked making her laugh

"Agreed girlfriends." She said and we high five.

"You should go get some sleep, I'll take Nate to daycare when I go in." Callie told me and I nodded

"Thanks Callie."

"Remember you told me no need for thanks. You're my best friend." She told me 

"I'm gonna try and get some sleep." I told her then I got up and went upstairs. I laid down in our my bed, and cried myself to sleep.

Blake's Pov

I couldn't sleep after Melanie left. I tried but every time I closed my eyes I saw her face, looking so heartbroken. With tears running down her face, tears that I caused. When my mind finally rested it was time for practice. Doc told me I didn't have to come but I wasn't doing any good sitting here, wallowing in my misery. After I got dressed I tried to call Mel but of course she didn't answer. So I got up and headed downstairs, I met up with the team trying to ignore their stares. I just kept to myself and went through the motions of practice, then pre-game press, pre-game warm ups, and to top it all off we lost 112-101. I guess on the plus side we have been able to keep this whole 'scandal' under wraps. We were now on the plane waiting for take-off, when I tried to call Mel again but it went straight to voicemail.

"Fuck." I said to myself

"What's going on man?" DJ asked sitting down next to me

"Nothing."

"Blake come on man it's me. Tell me what the hell is going on. What happened last night?" He asked and I let out a breath and told everything that has been going on since that girl started working for me.

"Damn man why didn't you say anything?" He asked 

"I don't know, I-I thought I could take care of this myself. I thought this would be done and over with when I fired her."

"So what now?" 

"I don't know restraining order I guess, but it doesn't help that the detective working the case doesn't believe me."

"What do you mean?" 

"She thinks I was having an affair with the girl, that's why she did this." I told him 

"Well......were you?" He asked and I wanted to punch him

"What the fuck DJ! No! You know me man, I would never do that to Mel." I snapped

"I know, I'm sorry but I just had to ask....How's Mel?" 

"I'm gonna need a place to stay for a while."

"She kicked you out?" 

"Yeah and I don't blame her."

"Well you know you're always welcome at my house Blake."

"Thanks DJ." I said and he nodded

"And Melanie's pregnant." I told him

"Congratulations it could be better timing but hey." DJ said

"Are you kidding the timing couldn't be worse." I said pinching the bridge of my nose wondering how the hell was I gonna fix this mess I made.
