Mr. Warner chuckles loudly as I walk up to him. He takes my hand leading me into the house. We walk through the house to his dining room where a full candle lit dinner has been laid out for two.
I sit in a chair allowing him to push me in then he sits in front of me. Three maids come in and start serving us while one pours wine in our glasses. "Thank you," I say smiling to the maid. She nods and hurries out of the room. "Thank you for dinner." I mumble beginning to eat my food.
After we finished our dinner he insisted that I stay for the night and I didn't want to so we came to a compromise, I'm going home. It was a nice night but he still isn't Dominic. I don't think I can ever pursue a relationship with him because of Dominic.
~oOo~
This morning my car didn't want to start because it's out of gas. It was useless to call Mr. Warner or to ride a bus. I'd rather not waste money. So after my second official day of work and Mr. Warner asking to take me out again I'm walking home.
Although my heels keep slipping on the ice I can't take them off so I keep my head down and watch for it. I have my coat on zipped up and a scarf around my neck and face.
I slowly walk along the sidewalk not really wanting to go home alone again tonight. As I pass two men I feel an eerie and almost scary presence. Trying not to pay attention I walk along until I hear familiar voices, familiar words, accents. Russian accents and Russian words.
"D-D-Dom?" I ask in shock turning around. The two men in suits turn with death in their gazes but their looks quickly soften. My body freezes as dark, dark, blue orbs connect with my green ones. Suddenly I feel like I'm going to throw up or pass out or maybe just fall over dead.
The man standing taller than I remember walks slower than molasses to me. Once his figure is right in front of my own he reaches down gently touching my face as if asking himself if I'm a ghost. My small hand trails his now bearded jaw and chin going down to his chest. My eyes immediately dart to a scar across his chin.
"Willamina," He finally breathes aloud. His hands caress my body as he looks over it to see the changes. My fingers find their way to his collar bones where I trace them for old time's sake. Dominic's hand gently grabs my hair adjusting to the change in color and length. All of the sudden his hand grips my suit jacket as his head dips down gently pressing his lips against my own.
In a moment of weakness I let all of this happen. Before I know it I'm softly pushing him away. His eyes show more hurt than I have ever seen in anyone. He settles on a huge hug instead of a kiss. Once we pull away I face the other man who has a look of guilt on his face.
"Nick?" I ask stepping over in front of him as he avoids my eyes. "Aren't you going to hug me?" He smiles pulling me into a tight hug. I face two of my three favorite men in the world feeling like I'm going to die. Two of the three men that I betrayed.
"Will you come out with us?" Dominic asks out of the blue. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes a thousand times over. "I'm sorry, I can't tonight. I just got off work-" Dominic cuts me off with a death glare. "Why are you walking home?" He asks with venom in his voice of course not faced towards me.
"M-My car, it's not working, I need to get gas." I stutter out an answer. "My apartment is literally right over there," I point out the crappy apartment building. "Why are you living in a shitty apartment? If you needed," He stops to keep his voice from wavering grabbing my shoulders to hug me once again. "If you needed help getting a house or gas or anything you could have called."
"Dom." I say breathlessly. I want to tell him I'm fine without him but I can't. I want to tell him things are going great but they're not. "I need to go." I murmur pushing him back earning another hurt look. "Of course." He says with monotone voice. I nod trying to ignore the throbbing in my heart and the feeling that someone has just hit me.
What. The. Hell. Is. Wrong. With. You?!! I internally scream at myself as I walk away from my first and only love and my brother. You had them back and you say 'I have to go'?? I feel tears begin to roll down my face.
