Leave Him Alone

Halloween Night

Lily walked around the house greeting everyone she met, "Hello Mr. Addams." Lily smiled as she stood in front of Gomez, "Please, call me Gomez." Gomez flashed a devilish smile at Lily, she blushed, "Okay then Gomez, is Morticia here? I haven't seen her." Lily sipped her drink, she always felt awkward around Gomez for some reason she could not explain. "She came with me, but I haven't seen her since we arrived." "That's strange... Would you like a drink, Gomez?" "Yes please." They walked to the bar together, "It has alcohol in it, is that okay?" "That's fine, Lily." Gomez nodded. Lily poured Gomez a drink and handed it to him, "I made it, I hope you like it." Lily was eager to know what Gomez thought of the drink. Gomez drank it, nodded then smiled, "Lily, this... I'm stunned, I never knew you could make drinks that tasted this fantastic!" Gomez continued to drink. "Thank you so much Gomez, I took mixing classes when I was younger so I picked up a few tricks then. I'm going to go look for Morticia." Lily said. "I'll see you later then."

Lily looked all around the house but she could not find Morticia or Herman anywhere. She decided to look outside in the garden. Lily saw Morticia and Herman sitting together at the very end of the garden, she hid behind a tree and listened in on their conversation. "I love you Herman Munster, you handsome beast." Morticia held Herman's hands and gazed lovingly into his eyes. "I love you too Morticia. You are the only woman in my life who I love with all my heart." He leaned in for a kiss, but Morticia backed away, "What about your wife?" "Lily? No way, she's just a toy, she's worn out with age. But you, you are young and beautiful, sexy and smart. No woman has ever been or will be as gorgeous as you, my love." Herman and Morticia kissed passionately. A single tear drop fell from Lily's eye, her heart was broken, shattered into a million pieces. She thought Herman loved her and would do anything for her, but she was wrong. She didn't even want to confront them, she silently walked back into the house. Tears rolling down her cheeks, Gomez walked up to her, "Lily what's wrong?" He asked. "The party is over." Lily didn't stop she walked to the very top of the stairs and got everyone's attention, "The party is over, you may all go home. I was hoping the party would go on for longer than this but something terrible has happened." Mumbles spread among the crowd as they started to clear out, Marilyn noticed her Aunt crying, "What happened?" Marilyn put her hand on Lily's shoulder. "Your Uncle is a cad and a phony. Now please, go to bed and take Eddie with you." Lily traipsed to her bedroom and sat on her bed, tears rolled uncontrollably down her face, smudging her make-up in the process.

Half an hour later Herman opened the bedroom door to find Lily crying into her pillow, Herman carefully approached Lily, he knew he had upset her. He just prayed it wasn't because he had kissed Morticia, "Lily..?" He whispered sitting down next beside her, he placed his hand low on her hip. She didn't move, she just kept weeping. "Are you okay my love?" At this Lily stopped sobbing and sat up, Herman removed his hand from her hip. Lily's mascara was all down her face and her eye-shadow was half on her face and half on the pillow, her eye-liner wasn't any better either, it was smudged all around her eyes. Lily opened her mouth to say something, she just sat beside Herman. She was still in love with him, she still wanted him. "What's wrong?" Herman placed his hands around her waist. Lily gazed into his eyes and placed her hand on her cheek, "I saw you with her." Herman looked shocked, "Let's not talk about it tonight my dearest." He kissed Lily, she pushed him away although he wouldn't let go of her waist. "Let go Herman!" Lily yelled. "Don't yell, the kids might hear." Herman lifted a hand and placed it on her mouth, little did they know Marilyn and Eddie were outside the door listening. Lily hit Herman's hand away, she struggled to get away. She fell to the floor with a thud. Herman had enough, he stormed towards the door. Marilyn and Eddie made a dash for their rooms as they knew what Herman was like when he got angry. He threw the door open and stomped out of the house. Lily was still on the floor, crying for Herman to come back. Even after what he did, she still loved him.
