The Cheating Cycle

Chapter 2

Chapter 2

"Tell me what happened again." My best friend Kimberley said. Kimberley is literally flawless. She has perfect blonde hair, brown eyes and beautiful smile, no acme, and she's a natural beauty.

I signed. My eyes were red and puffy from all the tears. I looked up at her and then instantly out my head back down.

"JohngavemyrosesbutIdroppedthembecausehetoldmehecheatedonmewithsomegirl." I paused. "I hope it was a girl. Butthenitoldhimtogetoutofmyhouseandhedoesntseemupsetaboutit." I paused again and took a deep breathe. "And I don't know what to do." I pouted.

"Oh sweetie.... Dump his sorry ass." I looked up at her with wide eyes.

"I can't. I have been with him for five years. He is my fiancé. I have been through too much with him. Five years of my life wasted. I even knew exactly what the kids were going to look like." I started balling out again.

"Lucy, did you scare him?" I furrowed my eyebrows at her. "Just kidding. Calm your tits. But on a serious note, John doesn't deserve you if he did that and the way he thinks like he's going to get away with it. He's a dick and you know it." She drank her coffee. "I mean I can get Rick to get his gun-"

"No!" I screamed. "Thats terrible." I looked down at my hands. They haven't stopped shaking.

"Lucy you are too nice. I'll put it like this: John shot your mother and she is on the verge of death. Would you still marry him?"

I was about to say no but I sighed and busted out crying again. God what did I do.

"Gosh he's such a little d-d-d..." I try to say the word I'm thinking of but I can't. The word never formed my mouth.

"Come on say it! Say he's a dick!" Kimberly chanted.

I sighed. "I can't."

"Why not?"

"It's too dirty." Tears ran down my cheeks.

"Sweetheart, it's not your fault. I never liked him anyway..." Her voice trailed off. I stopped sobbing.

"You told me he was the perfect man for me." I sniffed.

"Yeah I DID. Now he's a total fag so just get on with your life. You can be independent." She said before drinking her coffee.

"But I'm so dependent on everyone. I mean I can't even hold myself together. I need other people to be piece in my life so I can have a full puzzle." I whined. "He's also dependent considering the fact that he's been sleeping on the front steps of my apartment. I feel awful..."

"Oh hell no. I'm taking care of this." She grabbed her keys and we went to go face John.

"Lucy?" John asked as I stepped out of Kimberly's car.

"Yeah don't touch her t-bag. Leave the steps." Kimberly said stepping in front of me. Oh great another Kimberly moment.

"No. You can't tell me what to do." He said pushing past Kimberly, making her furious. "Lucy, please, I'm so sorry. But I honestly don't see what the big deal is. Is it your time of the month?" He said.

Oh my goodness. He didn't just say it. He did. Oh gosh. But he wasn't sarcastic, he was dead serious.

"Fucker!" Kimberly said pushing him away. Why am I watching this? I should stop it...

"I love her! And it's not my fault she didn't want to have sex before marriage. I wanted it."

"You said you wanted to save it and have it be special." I said in shock. I want to say Kimberly kick his butt, but I'm at loss for words.

"You know What John, I'd love to see your point of view, but I can't get my head that far up my ass!"

"Why because it's too tight down there?" He snapped back.

"Oh you are so getting-"

"Stop!" I yell stepping in between them. "Can I talk to John alone?"

Kimberly storms away.

"I'm sorry Lucy. I never seriously meant for it to happen.... I made a mistake. Please. We can have the life you have always dreamed of. I will never cheat on you again. All I am asking is a second chance..."
