Ocean love

Chapter 8

I was laying down in bed crying when I heard the front door open. I sat up and walked to my door opening it a crack, and I felt my whole heart break to pieces.

Michael had a woman on his arm and was taking her to his room.

I felt tears gather in my eyes as Michael turned towards me and smirked at me, and leaned down and kiss the girls ears.

I slammed my door and knew in that moment that Michael would never be mine.

......................................................................................................................

"I'm so sorry hun, I could have sworn that he was changed. I guess I was wrong." Alicia said as she hugged me on my bed.

"I d-don't know why I let him back in my heart when I knew that I was no good for any man." I sat as tears streamed down my face.

"Oh, Honey. You do deserve someone. You deserve the best and Michael isn't the best. If he was he wouldn't be sleeping around with another woman." Alicia told me.

"I don't deserve anyone. I think that I am never going to date again. All guys ever do is hurt me, emotionally, and physically." I said before I realized what I was saying.

"What do you mean physically?" Alicia asked me. She looked at me with a hard gaze when she saw that I wasn't about to answer. "I think it is time for you to tell me about your ex. I know that he did stuff to you and it seriously hurts me that you have shut me out, and not trusted me with it. I have done nothing to not have your trust and I am about sick of it."

I felt bad as she said this. "Yes, it is time that I tell you." Alicia nodded her head at me to go on. "Andy, my ex, was a very controlling man. He would always check my phone to see who I was talking to, he would always make me tell him of any appointments that I had with my boss, and would sometimes try to come my meetings. One evening right after I got off of work I called him and told him that I a late night meeting that I had to go to and that it was extremely important that I go. Of course, he told me that I had to come home right away, but I decided to go to the meeting anyway. The meeting lasted for a couple hours, and I knew that Andy would be extremely pissed at me, so when I got home he told me to go to our room so that we can talk about my disrespectful behavior towards him. He made me strip my clothes, and get down on my knees as dragged a knife from my left boob all the way across my stomach and to my right thigh. He punched me every time I made a sound. I wanted to die, it was so painful. The neighbors heard me screaming and called the cops about an hour in the beating, and he was taking into jail."

Alicia looked at me as tears streamed down her face. "Honey, I am so sorry about that. You don't deserve to be treated like that."

I jumped back and let out a loud sob. "That's all that ever happens to me. Dammit Michael is the one for me, but obviously I am not for him. If I was then he wouldn't be hurting me so bad right now. All I want is him and nothing else, but I don't deserve him. So I am going to let him go."

I turned around and laid down on my bed. "Please. I want to be by myself right now." I told Alicia.

"Ok, hun. I'll check on you later." She said as she got up and walked out the door.

I grabbed my pillow and put it over my head.

......................

I sighed in happiness as I took in the scene of my first date with Michael. He had brought me to an abandoned building and made me a wonderful picnic, of food that he had made.

"You are so beautiful." I turned towards Michael and smiled at him. "I don't deserve someone like you, but I plan to make our time that we have together special. So with that being said will you be my girlfriend?"

I grabbed Michaels face, and gave him a kiss. I pulled back and smiled at him "Of course."

I woke up with sweat pouring down my body.

I had to get out of here. I couldn't stay here when I knew that the person I loved was across the room with someone else In his bed.

I jumped up from bed and grabbed my suitcase. I quickly threw everything in my suitcase, and froze as I heard my door open.

"Mary?" Tears flowed down my face as I heard his voice. "Mary. Please. I need to talk to you, and apologize."

I wiped my tears as I zipped up my suitcase, and turned towards Michael as I grabbed my bag. "There is nothing to talk about."

Michael stepped towards me and had a guilty sad look in his eyes. "Please , let me explain. I know I don't deserve to even breathe the air that you breath, but I heard what you told Alicia and I realized..."

I slammed my suitcase down on the ground. "I don't give a fuck what you have to say. This is second time that you have broken my heart and I can't stand to be around you anymore. I don't trust a word that you say. And as for you hearing my conversation, thanks, that just makes me realize that you only feel sorry for me. Obviously it's just sympathy and not love. I mean you fucking slept with someone the same night that we had sex."

Michael steeped forward with tears streaming down his face. "Please, I love you."

I grabbed my bag and pushed past him. "No, you don't love me. You love yourself, and I fit nowhere in your world." I grabbed the doorknob as I forcibly opened the door. "I have loved you from the moment you asked me to be your girlfriend all those years ago, and I now know for sure that you never have loved me. Have fun with your other girlfriend, because I am finally going to be out of your way for good. Goodbye Michael."

I slammed the door open and walked down the hallway, and felt my heart break with every step I took. Goodbye, my love.

Michael's POV

I slammed my fist into the wall as I thought of how I am the worst human being to ever walk this earth. I totally wrecked the woman I love, and no contract is to blame this time. It is one hundred percent my fault. I am to blame.

After leaving Trace's room I had went down to the bar and drunk way too much. This led me to bringing a girl to my room. I sobered up a little when I saw the broken look on Mary's face, and I had kicked the girl out of my room, before we could do anything.

I had laid down and started thinking about what I was thinking and realized that I was being an idiot. I loved that girl so much, and I was only hurting her worse by staying away from her. So I had prepared a speech in my head, on what I was going to tell her, but when I got to her door I overheard the conversation on what has happened to her, and realized that I was the biggest dick in world.

I left the door when I realized that Alicia was coming out of the room, and decided to let Mary rest a little while.

An hour later my heart broke as I saw her suitcase, and as I heard the words that I didn't want to come out of her mouth. I fucked up and there was no one else to blame but myself.

I laid down on my bed that night as I startedto think. Maybe, I can talk to her tomorrow, and apologize. I mean she must begoing to stay in Alicia's room. There was no way that she could leave. I meanwe are out in the middle of the ocean.
