This Life We Live- Complete

Chapter 14- What am I doing?

Avery's point of view

I walked out of the tiny clinic my ex worked in, wiping the tears I'd shed away. I seriously should have been an actress, I could cry on a dime. It really was a gift. The tears were brought on by the mention of Simon, I had meant it when I said he had left me. But I had given him exactly what he deserved.

I got into my car and pulled out onto the main road of this little town Dimitri had grown up in-I didn't see the apeal- and started the hour drive to the motel to meet the sexy guy that had found me at my job only a week ago.

I had to give it to him all the information he gave me on where to find Dimitri had been dead on. But he failed to tell me about Dimitri's new little feral dog.

I was so much prettier than her, hell I made my living off my body. I didn't have a choice since Simon had squandered all the money I'd inherrited from my father after his untimely death, and then skipped town. It had taken me about a year to find him again, but it gave me great plessure to see him meet his fate. The coroner ruled it a suicide due to overdose. No one messes with Avery freaking Lazar.

It's not that I really wanted Dimitri back, it just pissed me off that he picked that girl over me. It hurt my ego, not something I liked.

I pulled into the parking lot of the motel we were staying in. It wasn't the cleanest place but he assured me no one would look for us here. Not that I understood why he was worried about that. Walking up the stairs I was wondering what the next move would be. None of this made sense to me.

Letting myself into the room I looked to see Adrian laying across the bed in his silk boxers. There was a bottle of Spirytus and some coke on the bedside table, apparently this was going to be a good night for us. I stripped down to my underwear and climbed on the bed straddling his lap.

He looked at me and started running his hands along my bare skin. I melted to him but just like that he pushed me off of him and stood up taking a swig from the bottle. I looked at him a little shocked, he had this crazy look in his eyes.

" What did you find out?"

He asked me calmly, too calmly for the look I just saw.

" Not much really. All your information was right. He has a girl friend though. Why did you send me to see him anyway?" I said.

" What was his girlfriends name?"

He said completely ignoring my question. What was with this guy? I should have known he'd be crazy.

" He called her Roza, I think. Why?"

I said. He got a thoughtful look on his face.

" Do you think you could get him back?"

Um what? Where was he going with this?

" No I don't think so. They seem to be in love."

I was tiring of talking about this as he got a disgusted look on his face. I stood up and smiled at him. I wanted to have a bit of fun. He wiped the anger and disgust off of his face and handed me the bottle, while he made lines for us to do.

After doing the lines I was feeling good, but he was mumbling shit that didn't make any sense.

" What are you mumbling about honey?" I asked

" We are going to have to find another way to get her!"

I didn't have time to ask him what he meant as he pinned me to the bed and crashed his mouth to mine with unnecessary force. But I couldn't help the part of me that used to be a nice, reasonable person telling me that this was wrong. Something was seriously messed up with this guy. But I wasn't really any better. I had become a terrible person.

My head was fuzzy now and I just laid still while Adrian did what he wanted. He was hot but, I would have to teach him something, because he was utterly useless in bed. I couldn't wait for him to pass out.

Once he had finally finished his assault on my body and passed out I quietly rolled away from him and out of the bed. Very careful not to wake him. I grabbed his phone and sat beside the bed on the floor, thank god there was no password on it. This made my task easier.

His screen saver was the standard one that comes already on the phone. Not personalized at all. I clicked on his gallery and was completely shocked. It seemed his entire phone gallery consisted of hundreds of pictures of the girl I'd seen hours ago standing beside Dimitri.

Now I understood his hatred and crazy ramblings, this girl was his girlfriend or something. Things were starting to make sense now. He had done his research on Dimitri and found me to take Dimitri out of the picture, so he could get her back. Of course this made me angry, what was so special about this bitch?

First Dimitri told me he chooses her over me and now I find out about being used by Adrian over the same girl. I would help him do whatever he wanted, but he would pay for this. I would wait it out, and when the time was right maybe I'd take this girl out of both of their lives.

Putting his phone back exactly where he had it- just in case he remembered by some miracle- I climbed slowly back in the bed beside him and started to form a plan as I fell asleep.
