The CEO Wife

Twenty Six

Aria's P.O.V

The next day, I decided to go to Beck's place. I knocked on Beck's door and luckily, he was the one who opened it.

"Hey," I smiled shyly.

"Hey. You wanna come in?" He asked me.

"Sure," I walked inside and saw that nothing had changed. I saw pictures of us still hanging on the walls.

"I didn't have the guts to take them down or put them away," Beck told me. I walked over to the living room and sat onto the couch.

"What did you want to talk about?" Beck asked as he sat next to me.

"I wanted to talk about Xander," I told him.

"What happened?" Beck asked worried.

"If we move in with you, you need to have some time off of work to spend more time with him," I told Beck.

"Wait. You're agreeing to this?" Beck asked me.

"You're his father and you have every right to see Xander," I said.

"Thank you so much, Aria," Beck said pulling me into a hug. I hugged back a bit before pulling away.

"But I sleep in a separate room," I told him. His smile dropped and he nodded in understandment.

"Aria. You have no idea how much you and now Xander mean to me," Beck said.

"You shouldn't have cheated on me then," I said.

"It was a mistake. I don't know why I did that. I cried myself to sleep when you left for a week straight," Beck told me. He cried to sleep? I remember crying myself to sleep for a while after leaving him.

"Beck, I'm moving back in with you for the sake of our child. But once that boy turns 18, I'm leaving," I said.

"Aria-"

"Beck. I'm serious. You made that choice a year ago. Cheating is a choice," I said before getting up.

"Aria."

"What?" I turned around and he placed his lips onto mine.

I was in shock. I couldn't move. Until I wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed back. He wrapped his arms around my waist as he kissed me. I pulled away slowly and he smiled.

"You still love me," He teased.

"I got a new man in my heart. And his name is Xander," I teased back.

"Im still in love with you, Aria," Beck told me.

"I love you too. But I don't think I can be with you right now," I said.

"What do you mean?" Beck asked.

"I love you but you lost my trust. It's going to be a while until I can trust you again," I said.

"I understand. As long as I have you and Xander, that's all I need," Beck said.

"We'll come over tomorrow at your work," I said.

"That's fine."

"So don't be fucking some other girl," I warned.

"When are you going to let this go?" Beck asked me.

"Until I'm over it," I said.

"So never?" Beck joked.

"Fuck you," I rolled my eyes at him.

"Okay," Beck said before giving me another quick kiss.

"Am I allowed to kiss you? Or no?" Beck asked.

"As much as I miss those kisses, I think it's better if we don't," I tell him.

"Alright. Whatever makes you happy."
