Abbigail's POV
Oh my god could this night get any more complicated I am standing in the middle of a dancefloor wearing a very expensive dress that now has blood on it watching as a man I hate confesses his love for me. This is not what I wanted of all the things to happen tonight this is not what I wanted.
I look over at Xavier and he is looking at me with both anger and hurt in his eyes I want to tell him that he is not the one that I love that I love him and not Roger, but the words get stuck in my throat. I look around as people stare at me.
Xavier shakes off the guys that were holding him walking away I step after him, but Sal stops me I look down at him blue eyes telling me not to. I excuse myself from everyone heading for the ladies' room I look down at my lip and it is really swollen up.
I wet some paper towels putting it to my lip and it stings at this point I can't gold back my tears, I hate this I don't have to ask I know that Xavier is mad at me, but I didn't do anything wrong. It's not my fault that Roger feels that way I tried to keep him away, but he is crazy.
I stand cleaning up my face when the door opened, and a woman walks in I look over at her she has short blond hair around her shoulder. Her bright blue eyes staring right at me as if trying to see something.
"Can I help you?" I ask not getting why she is staring at me like that.
"No, just wanted to finally meet the woman who took my husband from me" she says, and I pale. "That's right I'm Mrs. Fields"
Oh, dear god how much more of this can I take I don't understand why all of this is happening tonight of all nights. I take her in from head to toe she is wearing a cream dress that fits her just right she looks elegant.
"Look I didn't know he was married and when I found out I ended things. I can't apologize enough for that" I tell her honestly she looks at me from head to toe before looking at my lip.
"He's in love with you" she says, and I shake my head leaning on the sink. "Do you love him?"
"No, I have a boyfriend I love him he probably won't even speak to me after this I don't blame him" I look at my face in the mirror tear stained eyes and swollen lip.
I look a mess I feel like a complete mess I clean my face the best I could before heading back into the party I make my way over to my table Sal stands when he sees me he gives me a sad look and I want to cry but I hold strong.
"I'm going to head out" I tell him taking up my purse.
"Is Xavier with you" he asks I shake my head telling him. "Don't give up on him he'll come around"
I just nod heading out I get my coat from the coat check guy heading out I take out my phone dialing for a cab I just want to get out of here. I reach the street telling the person who picked up where I was hanging up.
