Love and Lies

Chapter 2//The truth

Chloe's POV
I'm sitting at the kitchen table wearing black jeans, black crop top and black heels, tapping my dark red nails against the table. It's the next day and Sam still isn't back. I look at the wedding ring and start thinking about the meaning of it. When you're married aren't you supposed to love only one person-the one you married? Aren't you supposed to trust each other and be loyal to each other? I hear the door opening and I jump up from the chair. Sam appears in the kitchen doorway and as soon as he sees me pain flashes through his eyes. My eyes start to water and I try to swallow it but it doesn't work. A tear slips and rolls down my cheek.
"What does our marriage mean to you?" I silently whisper as more tears roll down my cheeks.
"Chloe, baby, I don't know what you're talking about." He softly says. At that exact moment all the anger I've been holding onto explodes and I loose control.
"God dammit Sam! Why are you lying to me?! I've seen the pictures of you and that girl going into the hotel, kissing and holding hands!" I yell but my voice becomes quieter towards the end. "Does my love for you mean nothing to you?" I whisper. More pain flashes through his eyes and he sighs before sitting down on a kitchen stool.
"I don't know why I did what I did but I regret it and will always hate myself for it. The day I proposed to you, I knew that I wanted to spend the rest of my life with you and on our wedding day when I said I'll be with you through thick and thin and I'll be by your side forever no matter what the situation, I told you that I will love you when you hate me and I will love you when you don't want to see me, I promised that when you're sad, I'll cheer you up and when you're insecure I'll let you know that you are always beautiful to me. Chloe, I still mean all of that. I wasn't angry at you when you had to leave for 5 months to go away for your modelling job. I love you Chloe Ann Claflin. And I always will." He finishes off and I'm surprised I haven't drowned in my own tears.
"I can't believe you cheated on me." I whisper. I pick up a glass and throw it at the wall beside Sam. He doesn't even flinch. I see tears rolling down his cheeks as well.
"That's what my heart is right now. Shattered into millions of tiny pieces." I say and walk out of the house. I get into my car and drive as far as I can.
Few hours of driving around I realise I'm by the beach. I get out and walk down the stairs that lead to the soft sand and waves. I sit down on the bench and take several deep breaths. I close my eyes and when I open them I see a familiar figure walking a couples of metres in front of me.
"Josh!!" I shout and run straight into his arms. He wraps him arms around me and lifts me up.
"Jesus, Chloe, I've missed you so much! How is my little sister doing?" He asks. I haven't seen Josh for ages because he's been away filming a new film.
"Not so well." I sigh and he frowns at me.
"Come on, let's sit down and I'll tell you everything." I say.
~~~~AUTHORS NOTE~~~~
Before you try to kill me for not updating let me explain why.
Reason 1-I started writing a new story called 'The bad boy nearly killed me' and I totally forgot that I've started writing this one.
Reason 2-I couldn't think of anything good to write because obviously I want to make you guys happy and I didn't want to let you down by giving you a bad chapter so I needed time to plan out a decent chapter.
Reason 3-I'm on holiday and the wifi at this hotel is beyond shit.
Reason 4-I've been having a hard couple of weeks because I've lost a close friend of mine and also the boy who said loved me decided to kiss another girl.
Once again I'm extremely sorry for not updating but I promise I'll update more often now.
Love you all 😘❤️
