Robert was in the kitchen preparing dinner while I looked in his suitcase for his big blue hoodie I loved.
"Robbie, where's your blue hoodie? It's not in your suitcase" I yelled, he yelled back something, but before I could register what he said, I found a big bag that was hidden at the end of the suitcase.
I grabbed the bag in my hands, when he stormed in the room.
I looked at him, he had this panicked look in his eyes.
He looked at the bag in my hands, and then back at me
"Leighton" he started, but i shook my head.
I couldn't believe it.
I looked at the bag carefully, and what it contained couldn't of been more obvious.
Cocaine.
I threw the bag at him, standing up.
"You're a piece of shit" I said, he threw the bag on his suitcase and walked towards me, his face scared.
"Leighton I can explain, please hear me out" he said touching my shoulders but I took a step back.
"You told me you were sober, Robert!Do you fucking know what sober means?" I yelled
"I'm sorry Leighton, but I didn't want to fuck up your recovery with my problems"
"My recovery? You're thinking about my recovery? Come on, Robert. You get drunk shitless in bars and stoned and you think about my recovery? Did you really think I wouldn't find out?"
"No. But I hoped you wouldn't."
"You've been lying to be all along. I knew it. You'll forever be a crack head, Robert! That's why Susan left you, and that's why I will too." I said, grabbing my stuff quickly.
"Leighton, please" he said, but I started getting dressed, putting everything of mine I could find in my suitcase.
"No Robert. You lied to me, that's what fucking hurts. Everyone struggles, everyone falls off the wagon. But lying? Come on. Adam and Ed were right. I should of never let you come near me" I said, grabbing my bag and putting on my jacket
"Adam and Ed? Did you meet with them?" He said, I started walking in the living room, he followed behind me. He grabbed my arm and pulled me closer to him, his firm lock leaving bruises on my arm
"You say you don't want lying, and here you are. Did you meet them to fuck 'em? Oh, little Leighton getting fucked by one and sucking the other one's dick at the same time. You are a perfect threesome" He yelled at me
I turned around, shocked by his words
"Oh Robert please. Stop living with this fear because your wife got up and fucked somebody shitless out of his mind behind your back, because you were a shitty husband. Not everybody is like that. Not everybody is like you."
He looked at me, his expression hard
and dark.

"You know why I lied, Robert? Because I wanted to give you an opportunity. Ed told me about all the typical affairs you have with your co-workers. But I didn't want, I couldn't , believe I was one of them too."
"You are not one of them" he said, he looked hurt, his eyes were now full of tears.
"Goodbye Robert" I said, and opened the door.
"Go ahead then! Prove you're just the same fucking slut you were years ago"
He yelled.
I didn't look back, I just kept walking. I managed to get out of the building before starting to cry.
I didn't have anywhere to go, it was Christmas and nothing was open.
I sat on the steps of his building, thinking of what to do.
Then I remembered.
I dialed Adam's number, hoping he would pick up.
"Hello?"
"Adam? Can you come get me?" I said between sobs
"Leigh? What's up? Where are you?"
I gave him the address and hung up.

AN: this is so small I know. I'm sorry!
