"Of course I told them everything! From your dick size to the type of coffee you drink in the morning,"

"But if I left life would be so much easier for you!"
Ashley yells at me in Alohowa in the middle of JFK International airport in a black business suit. He's holding his suitcase at the gate, about to board a flight out of New York City.
He was trying to disappear.
He was going to abandon me.
"No Ashley, you have it wrong, If I had to choose between you and Linda I would choose you, every single god damn time, I love you so much, Ash. You can't leave me because I'm not complete without you. Without you every day morphs into one bland period of time where I feel like I'm missing a piece of my soul."
I admit the honest truth to him.
My worst fear is losing him yet again.
He stands there and stares at me in a state of disbelief with a hand on his hip
"Don't leave me," I call out one last time.
Suddenly his serious expression breaks into laughter.
"And you say I'm the dramatic one, Babe I'm leaving for like three days on a business summit YOU arranged to have me go to."
He says and I instantly feel like an idiot, admitting my true feelings with hundreds of people staring at us.
"Oh, forget everything I just said then," I shrug and put my hands in my pockets, he rolls his eyes and finally walks over to me.
"Nope, holding this against you for the rest of your life Johnny boy,"
"Come on..."
"It was really sweet though you fucking sap, Now I don't want leave. You're over here looking all sad and embarrassed. Did you really think I'd..."
"Then don't leave, I miss you already."
I give him my best sad puppy eyes that he could never resist.
"You're really clingy you know that? It's not cute"
"Because I never want to lose you again."
"Ah, so you're being a scared little bitch right now. Is that what this is?,"
"Possibly,"
"SO you can go on trips and I can't?" "Yup"
"What kind of marriage is this?" "An unfair, loving but overprotective one,"
"You're lucky I love you,"
Ashley punches me in the chest and looks back at his boarding flight that was waiting for its last passenger.
"So are you coming back or not?"
"fine, but you're carrying my bag"
"Sure...."
He tosses his suitcase to me and it weighs probably fifty pounds more than him.
"oof what the hell did you pack? Rocks?!"
"Possibly"
"Seriously?"
"...."
"Ashley!"
"What?! New York can be sketchy sometimes and I didn't want anyone to steal it..."
Author pov. Taking a short hiatus from this book til I can get it together. It didn't go like I planned which isn't a bad thing but I need to do a self readjustment.
