BLOODSUCKER

quatorze

3 months later

'Ladies and Gentleman, today I am joined with no other than the gorgeous Maeve Leclerc!' The radio broadcaster announced.

'Thank you so much for inviting me here.' Maeve smiled as she spoke into the microphone. She had been invited to London to speak on the Capital FM breakfast show. 'This has always been a dream!'

'Bloodsucker has been released across all platforms today, how does that feel?'

'Bloodsucker has been a baby of mine for the past few months. I had the most amazing time producing it with my awesome producer Freddy. I am just beyond pleased to finally show it to the world.' Maeve couldn't wipe the smile off of her face, this was her proudest achievement to date.

'Let's talk about the backstory of the song. For those who don't know, Maeve is married to the Monegasque Ferrari Formula One driver Charles Leclerc, what does he think about the song?' Jordan North asked young Maeve. She hesitated before responding, Charles had not heard the song as of yet but it was only a matter of hours until he hears it and that was not a conversation she wanted to have today.

Charles and Maeve had barely exchanged a sentence in the past month. Maeve had outright refused to attend any of his races, she believed that his other woman would attend and be by his side whether he wins or looses. There was only so long she could camp out at Arthur's so after a month she moved back home. When Charles was home she would avoid him like the plague but it was a blessing that he was constantly flying half way across the world. On a couple of occasions Charles  would turn up at the office in attempts to talk things through with Maeve but she was no longer interested. She knew that if he was a cheater, he was incapable of changing his ways for Maeve. Charles gave up after the 2 month mark and that gave Maeve some type of satisfaction.

'Charles is my biggest supporter just like I am his. He loves all of my work. In bloodsucker I let my alter ego 'Maria' come through. She is a relationship that she is unhappy in, her man always makes promises that he can't keep and she knows this but every time she hopes he changes but he doesn't. Her man is a player yet he becomes rather insecure when he sees her with other men, his insecurities weigh down their relationship. He drains the life out of her because she is so unhappy and Maria just feels like she is this man's mother rather than his lover.'

'I think more women can relate this more than they would care to admit which is the sad reality of the world we live in.' Jordan continued talking into this microphone. 'How did you and Charles meet?'

The dreaded question. 'We have always known each other. Our families were close when we were younger so I think we were always bound to fall in love. The day he asked me to marry him.' Maeve's throat went dry at the thoughts of the happy times of their marriage but she just felt angry that she had to lie and make him seem like a good guy. 'It was magical. I always knew he was my soulmate so the answer was the easiest decision I had ever made. The media says we got married way too young. Maybe we did, but only time will tell but right now we are more in love than ever.'

'Would you do the honours of announcing your song live for the first time?' He asked Maeve with a wide smile.

'My name is Maeve, and you are listening to my first ever song Bloodsucker live on Capital Breakfast.'

Maeve was sat in her Uber that was transporting her to her next interview in London as she scrolled through her notifications.

Why did you not share this with me?      (3 hours ago)
Wait is this about me?                                (3 hours ago)
Are you out of your mind? You are about to destroy this for us Maeve!                                         (3 hours ago)

I am happy for you. Please can we talk?  (2 hours ago)
We need to talk.                                             (1 hour ago)

She sighed as she clicked on her husbands contact information.

You have 5 minutes. Don't call, just text.

Why didn't you share this with me?

I have to tell you everything? We are just in a contract. We are not best friends who share everything with each other.

Grow up. I'm sick of the arguments.
Yes I am in the wrong but I'm not the one who walked out on us!

How many times Charles! There is no us! We were stupid to ever think we could be lovers. We are from 2 different paths in life and we have 2 different lifestyles. The only thing we have in common is the hatred for each other.

Hatred? I don't hate you Maeve, how many time do I have to tell you this.

You should have thought about this before you put your dick inside of other women!

So you made this song to get back at me?

Get back at you? You are the one that needs to grow up Charles!

So why have you released this song publicly stating that we don't have a great relationship! You have made me out to be the world worst husband

Well you wasn't competing for the worlds best husband was you?
Well at least you have finally won a title at something!

That was unfair Maeve!
I love you. I am so in love with you. I can't stop thinking about you. We can't go on like this Maeve. I miss my wife. I miss you.

I hate you
You ruined this for us!
You gave up on me.

I never gave up on us. Everything I do is for you.

I don't see how you sleeping with other woman and lying to my face benefit me but okay.

Fuck sake Maeve. I never cheated on you. Well yes in the past. But that day 3 months ago, I let you believe I was cheating on you to hide the truth.

Hide the truth?

I didn't want to hurt you Maeve. You have been through so much so I told a lie that I was training, but I wasn't training.

What did you do?
Charles?
Okay now you go quiet.
Okay your five minutes is up.

Your dad is dead.
He killed himself.
