Loving Him

The Taste That Your Lips Allow

Chapter Fourteen -

-Megan's Point of View-

"You're fired," I say as calmly as I can to Freya McBitch.

She starts panicking and getting hysterical. Her fault, not my problem.

"You can't fire me!" She screams at me, "you don't even come into the office!"

"First of all, stop pointing your filthy finger at me, it's rude," I say bored and folding my arms, "and second, that doesn't give you permission to play kissy face with my husband."

She looks at Jay for help and that was a big mistake. Freya's already treading on eggshells here. I raise my eyebrows at Jay, challenging him to take her side. "I'll talk to you after Megan and I have a talk," he dismisses her. Oh really, Jay? Freya leaves the office and if looks could kill, I'd be ten feet under.

"You can't just fire her like that, Megan," he looks at me and we share the same bored expression.

"What so you're defending her now? Any wife who walks into her husbands office and catches him locking lips with a 'business associate' as you so wrongly introduced her to me, would be dragged to prison for attempted or successful murder!" I've lost it now. No more bored faced cover up.

"Her family's close friends with my family, I'd get in deep shit if they found out she was fired!"

"I asked you for one thing, Jay." My tone of voice even scares me but his betrayal is just too much to handle. How embarrassing is it that I practically begged him not to cheat on me and he plays perfect marriage with me at home and does it anyway?

"She came onto me," he tries to explain.

"Please Jay! That's the oldest excuse in the book!"

"Well I'm actually telling the truth here, Megan!"

"Then if she's to blame for it all, she deserves to be fired!"

"Meg," he attempts to calm me down.

"Don't 'Meg' me," a knock on the door echoes through the room. Sophia and Mark walk into Jay's office and Mark looks at me with worried eyes.

"Meg, Sophia isn't feeling too good," I immediately rush over to my friend's side.

"What's wrong?"

"Just a little dizzy," she smiles, "could you drive me home now? Please."

I nod and rub her back reassuringly, "of course. I'll see you, Mark," I smile at the man and he kisses Sophia quickly.

"Thank you, Sophia,"

"Megan, we're not finished," Jay says.

"I think we are," double meaning.

"He what?!" Sophia screams out in shock. She had her prenatal vitamins and all the other pills you take when your pregnant.

"I know," I say sadly.

"Are you okay?" She asks me quietly.

"I asked him to do one thing, Sophia! It's not fair,"

"I never liked that Freya 'I've got longer legs than you' girl anyway!"

We laugh a little and she tells me a story of how Freya was trying to make a move on Mark a couple months back.

"How come you never told me!"

"You were sort of depressed with the whole 'I hate my husband and the love of my life is gone' thing," she knows about Ryan and I only ever really talk to her about him, "sorry. I didn't mean that in any harsh way at all!" She starts to panic thinking she hurt me.
