"What's with you both?" Aubrey asks. We're sat at the kitchen island, finishing our food.
Elias was being annoying and stayed in our room for hours straight until Aubrey finished making us all lasagna.
She's noticed something up since the minute she walked back into the house. Elias wasn't present and I was being a bitch.
She's stayed silent about our misbehaviour until it's become very obvious neither I or Elias are willing to fess up.
I'm sat besides Aubrey, facing Elias from the other side of the kitchen island. We've been having almost a staring contest whilst eating our food.
The tension is incredibly obvious yet neither of us talk or move. We simply just eat, staring right at each other.
"Seriously. What's up?" Aubrey asks, annoyed at our inability to respond to her question.
Elias stands up, taking his plate to the sink and leaving it there. He starts at walking to the door but not before turning and looking straight at me.
Only this time a large grin is visible on his face.
"Forgot to tell you" he says, directing it to me.
"You never wiped my cum off your face" then he walks away, leaving me alone with Aubrey, whose now freaking out.
My eyes go wide and I turn my body, wiping my face with my sleeve, but quickly realise nothing's there.
Fucking dickhead! He tricked me into believing him just so Aubrey would question me.
My back is still to Aubrey but I can feel her breathes grow heavier and she gasps loudly.
I slowly turn around, biting my bottom lip and fear what's the happen.
Aubrey has her mouth wide open, she's now standing up staring down at me.
I shake my head, "I didn't... we didn't" I smack my forehead into my palms, embarrassed.
Aubrey walks towards the door, but not before saying her final words.
"Whatever you did. You've got a husband up there that's clearly in need of your attention" then she as well walks away.
I breathe in, then exhale. What have I gotten myself into?
I started this... game. Not Elias. Me. I'm the only one at fault right now.
I stand up, leaving my plate and walking straight up to our room. I notice the room be empty and the shower turned on.
I attempt at opening the door but it's locked. I breathe out, disappointed in myself.
"Elias" I say, voice low. "Elias please can you open the door?" I ask.
The water comes to a sudden stop, and I'm not able to see him, but I know Elias is besides the door.
"Please" I whisper.
No answer comes from his mouth, nor does he open the door. I sigh aloud, slowly sitting down on the floor, leaning my back to the door and closing my eyes.
I'll wait for him to open the door.
I slowly begin to open my eyes, only this time, I'm no longer sat in the floor awaiting for Elias. I'm led in our bed, blankets covering me.
It's dark out and the room is silent. I look to my right and see nothing but emptiness.
Elias isn't here. I wouldn't be surprised if he left.
