I hated admitting it but having Shelby back at the house felt right. I didnt want her to ever leave again. I wasnt really certain if things could go back exactly like they had been before, but I was certain I needed to try.

Shelby had still been in the room changing when the food arrived so I set everything up and went to look for her. I found her in the floor of the bedroom sitting there with a pair of lacy black thongs clutched in her hand.

"Shelby whats the matter, " I asked as I noticed the tears rolling down her cheeks.

"One of your guests left her underwear behind. They got mixed up with my things.."

She flung the thongs at me and got up. I had no idea what to say to her at this point. This was an awkward situation to say the least.

"Shelby I'm sorry you had to see that.. I know it must have been a little upsetting for you.."

Judging on her expression, I probably should have come up with something a little better than that to say. If looks alone truly killed I would be at my own funeral right now.

"I knew you had been with women while I was gone.I knew that..But for some reason I refused to let myself believe you would bring them here... I didnt think you would have sex with them in this house... and that you would fuck them in that bed"

Shit. My mind quickly traveled to that day that Shelby and I decided to move in together. I wanted her to truly feel like it was our home so I had goodwill pick up all of the furniture I had once shared with Anne and I took her shopping. We picked out everything together..and we were in the store playfully rolling around on a giant king sized bed.

"we have to get this one its huge.. we can do some wild stuff in this bed" I teased as she laughed.

"we will be the only two people who have ever made love in this bed..."

And that was now no longer true.

Shit.

"do you have any idea how it feels Adam to know that the man you love so much doesnt want you anymore and that you have no one to blame for that but your own self. I did this. I caused this. You fucked those women in my bed because of me.. I am such a fucking idiot. I ruined everything."

She was a mess and she was really starting to worry me. I needed her to calm down. How I was going to make that happen I had no idea.

"How long did you wait Adam? How long was I gone before you fucked her?"

"Shelby there is no point in this at all. Its done now. Its all done and it cant be undone. You made a mistake and I made a mistake. We have both hurt one another and screwed up ..But"

"Just answer me Adam. You are the one who wanted complete honesty. No secrets right..so tell me...How long was I gone before you fucked someone else... because I never did. I just wanted you to know that. It was all my fault and I caused it in the first place but I never fucked anyone else..Ever."

"I didnt cheat on you Shelby not ever. I never cheated on you. When we were together I was completely faithful to you. I was loyal. I loved you with ever fiber of my being. I would have never fucked another woman for my entire life if you hadnt left me.."

"I already admitted it was all my fault Adam. But answer the question.. How long was I gone?"

I could not answer this question. I was certain that I could not answer the question or things would get much much worse than they already were.

She kept on and on and was getting herself so worked up I really began to panic. I braced myself for the fallout because I was certain it was going to be huge.

"a week"

"a week. I was gone a week and you had someone in our bed fucking her?"

"Shelby I was devestated and drunk. I was drunk alot.. almost constantly. I needed to numb the pain. I hurt like hell and I was drunk and you know how I get when I am drinking..."

I was making it worse. Every word I said made it worse.

"you were calling me and texting me and coming to Toms house trying to talk to me while you were fucking other women? You called me a whore Adam"

"I was distraught and desperate..I wanted you back. No one meant anything to me. i just wanted you back.."

"and this was a great way to make that happen.. Where else did you screw them? In the shower? On the kitchen table? Did you do her in the tub like you did me? What about the couch.. Did you let them go down on you on our couch like I always did?"

"Shelby enough"

"Youre right. Its enough. I have had enough"

"where are you going?"

"I'm calling a cab and I am going home. i cant even be in this house. It disgusts me.. You disgust me Adam.. You made me feel like shit for hurting you so bad.. but I'm glad to know you werent in to much pain to stick your dick into another woman."

'Shelby"

"goodbye Adam"
