This is for Dionnadii
Over the last few weeks, Shiro had been noticeably distant. He always looked guilty. He was more high strung than usual. It was not normal, but you assume it was work. He had been working late with a work friend named Curtis. You understood, it was all part of saving the world.

You got into bed knowing Shiro wouldn't be home until morning again. You sigh and curl into a ball and sighed. You missed him so much. You drift off to sleep hoping you'd wake up in his arms.

———————-
You woke up to the smell of breakfast and smiled. You rolled out of bed and hurried to the kitchen. "Hey, are you hungry?" He asked.

"Yeah. I forgot to eat dinner that night. You said.

You walked up behind him and wrapped your arms around his waist just as he turned away to grab something. You watched as he moved to grab milk. You sigh and go to sit at the table.

You wanted to cry, all you wanted was his attention. You bury your head in your arms and wait until breakfast. The only sounds that were heard were the sizzling pan.

"Sit up, you need to eat."

"Can I ask you something?" You ask.

"After you eat." He set the plates down and sat in his usual seat and frowned.

You both ate in silence. You watched him carefully. Then you noticed something. A hickey. It was faint and just below the collar of his shirt. You froze. He was cheating on you. The man you have been with for years decided to throw it all away.

"I'm going to ask you a question and I expect you to answer honestly." You asked keeping your voice steady. This was not a situation where you should cry. Well, at least not yet.

"Not -"

"Was he worth it?" You asked

Shiro was shocked, "you knew?" He asked, "this entire time, you knew?"

"No, I just figured it out. Maybe you should cover the hickies up before coming home to your wife." You growled standing up.

"I'm sorry." You rolled your eyes and dumped your leftover in a plastic container, you barely took a bite out of your food. You moved to wash your plate. "I already said I'm sorry."

"Sorry isn't going to help when I kick your ass."

"I'm-"

"You're not sorry!" You snapped. You turned to him and pulled him down by his shirt. "You're not sorry. If you were sorry you wouldn't have kept it a secret. You are not the man I married."

"Yes, I am. I just... I love him and you." He admits. "I don't know what to do."

You sighed, you can never stay mad with him. It broke your heart all over again seeing him so upset.
"I have an idea." You said taking his hand.

You lead him to the couch and sat down bringing your legs to your chest and rested your chin on your knees. "If you loved me, you wouldn't have cheated. So here's what's going to happen. "You're going to decide if you want Curtis or me. Next, you're going to let us know what you choose. If you choose him, then I will file for divorce. Okay?"

He nodded and wiped his face. He tried to pull you into a hug but you shook your head. He sighed and stood up. "I'm going to go talk to him." He grabbed his keys and blew me a kiss and waved. You nodded as he left.

You felt your throat tighten up as your eyes water. You waited to burst into tears just In case he left something. You held out as long as you could before bursting into tears. You knew he was going to choose Curtis. You were so angry he never told you. You sobbed into your arms.

All there was left to do was wonder where you two went wrong.
