"I wanted to see if the rumors were true." He said.
He looked at her, noticing that she was totally shocked to see him standing there. He looked the same to her; dark hair and eyes, with olive skin. He wasn't that tall, only about 5'11'' with a nice build. Over all, he was good looking; but when you compared him to Tommy he was nothing. Tommy blew him out of the water in every area.
"What rumors would those be?" She asked.
"That you were moving to England and starting a new career."
"Yes, I am. I leave next weekend. What does it matter to you? Why do you care?"
He put his hands in his pockets, "I don't know. I just thought maybe I could say good bye or something."
"Well good bye," she replied.
"Come on Ali! We were married for 10 years! You can do better than that!"
"What do you want me to say Dave!! You know how things ended! Not well!!"
"And I suppose that you are going to blame me for it! Are you going to bring up Cindy again?!"
"YES!! You were fucking your secretary and whoever else you could find to spread their legs for you for half of our marriage!!"
"Well if you were a little more adventurous I wouldn't have had to look elsewhere! You were so plain!"
"Are you fucking kidding me?! Seriously, you need to leave. I have nothing more to say to you. You better leave because if Lila sees you, she will tear your ass up!"
He moved closer to her, using his size advantage to intimidate her, "Maybe I want a little something more," he grabbed her arm, "Come on Ali. Don't be such a prude." And he started tugging on her arm to lead her to the living room.
While Dave was trying to talking to Ali, Tommy heard the talking and walked quietly down the hall and listened to the conversation. He was getting more upset as the conversation continued, and he was a pretty even tempered man. It took a lot to get him really upset and it only happened a few times in his adult life. He could tell that this was going to be one of the times he lost it. He heard the man's last comment, he had reached his limit.
He turned the corner and went in the kitchen just as Ali said, "Get your hands off me!"
"You better listen to what the lady said," Tommy said in a very even voice, looking straight at the shorter man.
Dave dropped her arm and looked at the taller man with a smirk and said, "So it looks like the rest of the rumors were true too."
"What are you talking about," Ali asked rubbing her arm as Tommy came to her side and put his arm around her waist.
"That you were whoring yourself to half of London."
Ali's temper was simmering before that and as soon as he said that, it boiled over.
"What the hell are you talking about?! I didn't whore myself out to anyone you Asshole!!"
Just as she said that, Lila came in with Nigel laughing. She stopped dead in her tracks as she saw Dave.
"What the HELL are you doing in my house, you son of a bitch!!"
"Get a grip Lila, I was just checking to see if Ali was moving or not."
"And making some inappropriate proposals as well," Tommy said with a dead calm voice.
Nigel had only heard that voice a few other times and knew he needed to try and intervene, "Mate, I think its best you leave. You are not wanted here."
