--Julliet Parris--
I waited and waited for Geo to come home. It was going on nine o'clock at night and I really started feeling like her wasn't going to show at all.
I poured the last serving of my second bottle of wine into my glass and lifted it to my lips, downing all of it in one gulp. Tears began streaming down my face. He wasn't coming home, huh?
The door suddenly opened and his sillhouette came into view,making me hurriedly wipe at my tears with the back of my hand.
He made a beeline toward me and lifted me on to the table before getting between my legs and kissing me. I tasted the Hennessy on his tongue and I was certain that he tasted the wine on mine.
"I wanna make this work, Geo." I mumbled.
"I want you to want this, Jules." He groaned. "I love you so much. Why can't you see that?" He kissed my neck. "You got me so fucked up, Jules."
It was obvious that we were both drunk.
Two lost souls.
Geo laid me back on the table and swiftly pulled my thong off. He gently glided his thumb over my pearl, making me shudder and gasp.
He then sat in the chair where I was and propped my legs up on his shoulders as he buried his face between my legs.
Geo's tongue swirled around my clit, causing me to grip his hair as my back arched toward him, granting him more access. He sucked gently on my clit, making me tightly squeeze my eyes shut as my mouth hung ajar, while moans escaped my throat. I ground my hips into his face as his tongue flipped rapidly against my center.
"Oh my God." I moaned as he pushed his tongue into my core and thrusted with it. Then, he sucked on my clit again, making me lose myself altogether. He cleaned my juices up and quickly undid his belt and trousers, allowing them to fall around his ankles along with his boxers as he guided his swollen shaft into me, returning home.
My slick, warm walls willingly welcomed him home as my legs wrapped around his hips, pushing him deeper.
Geo allowed himself to fall on to me. He face was now buried deep in the crook of my neck. His warm breath sending chills up my spine.
"I love you, Julliet." He groaned.
"I-I love you too." I stuttered as his shaft hit my shaft.
"I ain't got nobody but you, baybeh." He growled. "I swear."
"I believe you, Geo." I moaned as he sucked on my breasts. "I believe you."

I woke up under the impression that my husband and I were back in a good place, but I was wrong; I woke up to an empty bed and an a just as empty house. It seemed like Geo had left for work and hadn't bothered to wake me or anything. He just left.
I made my way into the bathroom and was met with a usual post-it note stuck to the mirror. "We need to talk. ~Geovanni." Was all it read, which puzzled me tremendously. I immediately got a nervous feeling after reading the note. My stomach churned as my thoughts became pessimistic.
It was now six o'clock in the evening and I sat in one of our couches awaiting his arrival.
I know that we were both under the influenceast night when we made love, but he couldn't regret it, right?
I became even more anxious when I heard his car pull into the driveway and the engine died. My heart rate increased as I listened to his keys jingle and the door knob turn. As soon as he entered the house, his presence and smell filled the atmosphere.
Soon enough, he entered the living room where I was and sat on the couch opposite of the one I currently occupied.
"Hey." He greeted.
"Hi." I replied as I chewed on my lower lip.
"You got my note this morning?" He questioned.
"Yup." I nodded hesitantly.
"Cool." He sighed. "Listen, the sex we had last night doesn't fix or change anything." He decided to go get right into it.
"Ok." I nodded.
"We were both wasted and it's been a while since we've fucked at all."
That all it was to him? I wondered. Just a fuck.
"But it doesn't change anything." He repeated.
"Cool." I nodded.
"Why you chose to stay?" He asked.
"Because Geo, I love you and I really want this to work." I stressed.
"And what are you planning to do to make sure that it works?"
"Whatever it takes, Geo." I shrugged. "What I know is I don't want to come home to an empty house or a different man. I want to come home and you're here. I don't ever want Krys to grow up and feel like he was at fault for our split. I want to be the woman in whom you find peace Geo." I rambled. "It's not something I could promise for certain, Geo. It's only something I could promise to give a try, but I need you to meet me half way. I need you to teach me and have patience with me."
"Don't you think that I've been patient enough with you?" He asked.
"Yes, but if you want this too, you won't have a problem exercising your patience some more." I shrugged.
"What do you expect me to do if you ever act up again?" He asked.
"I expecte you to tell me about it, Geo. Tell me when I'm doing something wrong and I'll try to fix it."
"But I've been doing that, Jules and you haven't really ever made any special efforts to change that shit."
"Because I didn't know how you felt about it, Geo." I defended.
"Oh yeah?" He questioned sarcastically. "You didn't know?" He scoffed. "So all those times I spoke about it was just for fun?" She shook his head.
"I never said that."
"Well it sound like that's what you're saying and it isn't making any sense, Julliet."
"What do you want from me, Geo?" I asked frustratedly. "Must I lay down and die for you?" I yelled. "Because I will."
"I don't want you to die for me, Julliet." He boomed.
"Well that's what it sounds like. Or maybe you don't really want this." I concluded. "Maybe you actually want a divorce." I sniffled as I tried fighting my tears. "Maybe I'm the only one fighting for this." I sniffled again. "So what do you want Geo?" I asked.
"I think we need one time apart." He shrugged, causing my stomach to drop and the tears to fall.
"Fine." I mumbled as I stood and made my way to the stairs. If he doesn't want me around, I could make that happen; I thought as I made my way to our room, so I could start packing. If he doesn't want this, then it doesn't even make sense for me to even start trying.
