Out of the ring 2 { completed}

Roman

After taking Nikki to go get ice cream, we caught a catch a cab to get back to the hotel.

" Roman, Thanks again." She says as we stand outside my hotel room.

" No problem, just tell John to take care of you." We both laugh after I make that comment. I went from being her lover to her father. I really want to change that. " Hey, do you want to come inside?" I ask knowing the answer may be no.

" Umm... Isn't Galina in there?"

" No, she is probably already heading home." The truth is I don't where Galina is since we are technically not married no more. " Just come inside for a few minutes."

" Roman? Are you sure?"

" Yeah, it's fine." I open my hotel door, to a clean and Seth less room, as if he knew this was happening. I let Nikki go in first as I follow behind her. I take off my jet black suit jacket and fold it neatly on the office chair. " Do you want some champagne?"

" What are we celebrating?"

" Just two old friends getting back together."

" Well, in that case, yes, but were actually really friends?"

" I'm afraid you have a point," I say popping the golden top off the bottle and pouring it in the glasses. I watch as she takes a few sips, as the room fills with silence. " Why do we make things so complicated?"

" Because you slept with her."

" For us."

" I really don't wanna hear that bullshit." She says placing her glass on the table. " She released the video anyway."

" Nicole, if I could I would do it all over again. I regret what I did, every day." I say trying to comfort her. She places her hand out, so she could stop me.

" Roman, thanks for the champagne and ice cream but I think it's time I go." She grabs her purse off my bed, and head out.

Well, I didn't plan for it to go like that.
