Trouble With Us

Chapter 6

Chapter 6.......it's the

I half expected Will to start sending his henchman to pick up or drop off the kids again. When he didn't I was forced to look at the face of the one person I truly loved but couldn't have. Will always kept the conversations brief and half the time he only said hello or goodbye. It really wasn't any wonder if you believed the rumour mill. While my friends tried to protect me from it I still found out anyways. Will was happy and things were starting to get serious. Even the one night while we were watching a movie in which the actors found themselves in a sex store Mac made a off handed reference to Wills kinky sex life. So great not only did she have him but was giving him the best sex of his life.

So instead I chose to move on as well. Brad and I have been out on a few dates and going on another tonight. Dress nice was the only thing he would tell me. He wouldn't tell me where we were going or what we were doing despite how many times I asked. When he showed up he had his usual bouquet of flowers, this time daisies.

Then he blindfolded me and made me promise not to look. After he helped me into his car we drove for what seemed like forever. Eventually we stopped and he helped me out and took my hand. Where ever we were there was lots of people. I heard the familiar ding of an elevator as we stepped in. Even blindfolded I knew this was no regular elevator as it went on and on without stopping on any floor for a ridiculous amount of time. If fact I was beginning to wonder if something was wrong before Brad finally took my hand and lead me off.

"Ok were here," Brad murmured in my ear as he placed my hands on a railing directly in front of me. Walking around behind me Brad removed the blindfold and wrapped his arms around my waist. "Surprise."

Allowing my eyes to adjust I could see the New York sky line glittering in all it's glory before me. Immediately I knew we were on the observation deck at the Empire State Building. Taking his hands in mine I leaned back against the solid wall of his chest. Tipping my head up I whispered, "Thank you, I love it."

Kissing me softly Brad squeezed me a little tighter. "I'm just going to go check on our dinner reservations ok."

"I'll be right here." Clutching my bag in my hands I let out a long slow breath of air. Looking out over the New York skyline I couldn't help but miss the view from Wills loft. When I lived there I never truly appreciated how amazing it really was.

"Enjoying the view?" a thick, deep English accent drawled from behind me.

Spinning around I was speechless as I stared into Wills baby blue eyes. He was wearing a light tanned Armani suit with a white shirt and his glasses instead of his contacts. I opened my mouth but nothing came out.

"What's wrong? Cat got your tongue?" he asked dryly.

"I...I wasn't expecting to see you." Finally my brain and mouth began to function together.

"Clearly," The anger in Wills voice was in direct contrast to his casual stance. "It's a week night and yet here you are hanging off some bloke."

"Brad is going away on business for a week so we came out tonight." For some reason I found myself explaining my actions.

"Brad," in a sinister tone Will drawled his name out slowly. Taking a step closer it felt like Will was pinning me down on the spot. "Your here with that wanker instead of at home where you should be with your kids. With my kids."

"Were only here for supper and that's it." Now I was defending myself to Will. It made me so angry that with a matter of a few words Will had the power to twist me in what ever way he wanted while nothing I did ever had any effect on him.

I felt Brad walk up behind me and put his hand on the small of my back. I froze in fear as this was the first time Will and Brad had physically crossed paths. I looked at Will silently pleading with him to be decent. When lack of introductions came Brad eventually reached his hand out in Wills direction, "Hi I'm Brad and you are?"
