Daddy's Best Friend

Chapter Thirty-One

Grayson left earlier than usual this morning. We haven't really spoken since Saturday and it's Monday morning. I was awake when he came in to get ready for work but just acted like I was asleep. I still don't understand why he is so mad at me.

Dallas is with Kim for a couple of days. It is weird being in the house alone. I made breakfast and a coffee and sat on the back porch just watching the birds and such. It was getting cooler and the leaves were changing colors, it was very beautiful and peaceful out here. It made me never want to leave. 

I finished my breakfast and coffee and walked back into the kitchen. I unloaded the dishwasher and loaded it with dirty ones. 

My phone rang and I walked over to the counter and picked up my phone to see an incoming call from Gray. 

"Hello?" he asked.

"Hi." i answered.

"Are you busy right now?"

"No, whats up?" I asked.

"I forgot my check book. Do you think you can run it up to me by chance?" He asked.

"Sure. Where is it?" I asked.

"In the top right drawer of my desk, in my office."

"Okay, I will be up soon." I said.

"Thank you." 

"Of course, Grayson." i said and hung up.

I walked to the other side of the house to Grayson's office. I looked in the drawer that he told me to and it was no where to be found. I look in all of his drawers except for the very last one. 

There was a receipt in the bottom of the desk. It was for a hotel, lingerie, champagne, and way to much food. This was on all on his credit car bill. But it is the date that caught my eye more than anything. 

It was April 8th, the day that Grayson told me he loved me and we had sex. I never got  lingerie. So who could he possibly have bought it for. 

I put my head in my hands and fell to the ground. He bought it for a women. 

I thought he loved me. I thought it was me and him. And soon me, him, Dallas and the baby. I thought he loved me. 

But he probably fucked another bitch the same day he told me he loved me and took my virginity.

On the bright side though, I found his check book.

--

I packed my shit and through the bags  in my car. I grabbed his check book and drove to Grayson's office. 

The people looked at me like I was crazy, I don't blame them. My hair is a mess, i'm in my pajamas, and my face was puffy.

When the elevator dinged I tried to get out of it before it even opened. I needed him to tell me I am over thinking. To tell me that he never got the chance to use the hotel, champagne, and the shit ton of food. To tell me that the lingerie was a size too big.

I got out the elevator and raced to his office, still getting dirty looks from people. I didn't care.

When I got to his office I didn't bother to knock I just busted in. There were two men sitting across from Grayson at his desk.

"Leah, what is going on? Are you okay?" he asked and rushed over to me. 

"Please ask them to leave." I asked not looking at him in the eyes.

"Gentlemen, let's continue this later." He said and separated himself from me to open up the door for the men.

"Baby, what is going on? Are you okay? Is the baby okay?" he asked.

I wiped my nose and pulled out the folded paper from my pocket. 

"You got a hotel and lingerie on April, 8th. Why?" I asked.

"Where did you find that?" he asked.

"When I was looking for your check book it wasn't in the drawer that you said it was in. Why?" 

"I- it was-"

"Please. No more lies. Were you with another women the day that you told me you loved me and had sex with me?" i asked and finally look up at his now glossy eyes. "Grayson! Answer me god dammit!" I said raising my voice.

"Leah. Please let me explain." he pleaded.

"Yes or no, Grayson. It's not that hard." 

He took a few minutes to answer. Probably wondering if he should lie or not. "Yes." he said in a whisper.

That's when the tears started to fall yet again. "It was Samantha. Wasn't it?" I asked.

He closed his eyes in shame and nodded his head. "Please,Leah. Let me explain myself to you." 

"I have most of my clothes in my car. I will be back later this week to get the rest of my stuff." I said.

"No! Leah, please talk to me. Let me explain. Let's talk it out." he pleaded as a single tear escaped his eye.

"Talk what out? That you only told me you loved me to get your nut off for the second time that day?" I asked. "I love you so much. But you never loved me." 

"You know that is not true. I love you with everything I have. I made a mistake and I need you to just let me explain." he said and grabbed my hands in his.

"You have 2 minutes." 

" I met Samantha when I was married to Kim.We were always very flirty with each other. And  when me and Kim split up we fooled around. How was I supposed to know you felt the same way I did? So yes I did see her the day I told you I loved you. I have not seen her in that way since. I love you so so much. And I am so fucking sorry for lying to you. But I promise you that every single time I have told you I loved you it was true. I love you and our baby more than I love  myself." he pleaded. "Please look at me." 

I closed my eyes and let more tears fall. "I will be by to get the rest of my stuff later this week." I said and pulled my hands away from him. I can't stand to be touched by him.

"No, please do not do this to me. Don't leave me." he said. "I can't loose you. I swore to myself I would never loose you again."

"You should have thought about that before." 

"Leah, what do you want me to do? Get on my knees and beg? Because I will." he said and got down on his knees.

"Grayson, get up." I said looking down at him. "I don't want you to do anything." I said and turned around going for his door. 

Before I could open up the door his big hand stopped me from opening it. 

"We can work this out. We can talk and you can yell at me all you want. Whatever makes you feel better. But do not leave me." He begged.

"Move,Grayson. Move." I said not turning around.

"Okay yeah. Maybe you just need a break, to think. Go, take a break and we can talk about it tonight over dinner. At our home." he said trying to make this all okay.

"No Grayson!" I said and turned around. "Taking the day off does not make it better. You fucked me and another women on the same day. You let me believe you were some great guy and you were fucking that whore the whole time. Maybe you did stop after that but, you did it before too. I can't even look at you. Now move out of my fucking way before I scream bloody murder." I said. 

"Leah, please." he whispered breathlessly. 

"No, Grayson. Stop saying please and let me go." I said. 

He closed his eyes and backed away. I opened the door and before I left he whispered "I love you" 

"Oh, I almost forgot. Here is your check book." said and threw it at him before walking out of his office and the building.
