Use Somebody

Chapter 34:

Nick's POV:

There was something off about Harry. He carried himself a different way now than he had when I was with him. When he walked to the door and opened it, he seemed really happy. Like his birthday something was going on and he was ready. Even if he wasn't dressed. I saw the scar he had running down his stomach and his arm that was in a cast. I may never know what happened to his arm but the scar is all my fault. I never thought I was going to do that.

"Nick!" My girlfriend, Monica yells at me.

It was enough to pull me out of my daydream. She was standing in front of me with her arms crossed. She raised her eyebrows.

"What?"

"Jessica wet the bed, strip it down while I give her a shower." Monica demands.

"No, I'm not going to deal with your kid. I just lost my own, okay." I tell her.

"Well, that's not my fault. Maybe YOU shouldn't have hit him. He didn't do anything to deserve it." She says walking off.

I get up and grab her. "You don't know what we went through."

"Let go of me!" Monica yells.

Jessica comes into the room and holds her mom's hand. They were happy and Monica happened to see me in a coffee shop and asked me on a date and I didn't turn her down. But lately everything was circling back to Harry. I kept telling myself he was gone and not coming back. Somehow I had to get him back. Maybe I could get him to cheat.

"Fine I'll change her sheets but then don't bother me. I have work to do." I say walking off in the direction of Jessica's room.

I strip the bed and spray it down with disinfectant. I remake the bed and sulk off to the room I share with Monica and try to figure out how to get Harry back with me.

---

I was sitting there on my computer for about twenty minutes before Monica came back into the room.

"You are always on that computer! You never do anything around the house to help!" She yells.

"If you don't like it maybe you should leave." I mumble.

"Fine I will." Monica says grabbing Jessica and heading out the front door.

I remembered that I had the video surveillance for Harry's bakery so I logged into it and found surveillance footage for January 3rd.  I started to watch it and saw Harry with someone I didn't recognize at first, but then I realized it was his doctor from when he lost Jayden.

They were looking at a cookbook and the doctor was gathering supplies to make whatever they had decided on. Suddenly Harry was getting himself undressed by the doctor. I knew where this was heading so I got a disk and downloaded it onto the first one and then three additional as well. I had four, one for Gemma, Harry, Harry's doctor, and the doctor's boss.

I place the first on into the mail and I send it to Harry's apartment, along with a note. I am going to get him back and he will see that he loves me more than he loves that doctor of his. I was the one who was always there for him when he needed it. When he was upset I drove him to his sister's or his mom's, he was never without a ride. He said I was the problem but the real problem was him. I seal the manila envelope and address it. The note read:

'You'll pay for leaving me.'
