Later that night
Jimmy's parents had agreed to watch Viviana until the next day. Jimmy was glad since he wanted a few moments alone with his fiancé. It took a bit of convincing for Aria, as she rarely even let her own mother watch her baby until the next day. Jimmy also wanted to talk to Aria. None ever really addressed the situation of what happened between the two. After the divorce, they didn't communicate until they seen each other at Alexis' baptismal party. Even then, neither said a word. But once their daughter was born, they were forced to co parent. No matter how much Aria despised him at the time, she couldn't keep Jimmy away from his daughter, despite his actions.
The two were now in their house, in their bedroom. Aria sat on the couch and took her shoes off.
"A-Aria?" Jimmys voice was shaky.
"Yeah?" She looked up at him.
"Can we talk?" He sat beside her.
She nodded, "Of course. About what?"
"Everything... Everything that has happened in our relationship. This crazy almost two years we've had."
"Sure, we can." Aria said and turned to face him. "Where do you want to start?"
"My first cheating scandal.." He practically whispered.
Aria took a deep breath, "We both know how that ended. Actually, I have a question for you. Both times you cheated on me, you were always caught by the media. Why did you never make an effort to hid it?"
Jimmy leaned forward, "I don't know. Cause I'm stupid I guess. I was just drunk and never thought about being caught."
"How did you meet Mia and Alexandra?"
"When you were in Surrey, one of the guys invited me over to his house, he was having just a little party. And his girlfriend was really good friends with Mia, and invited her. Me and her got to talking, I was drunk again, and we decided to go out the next night. And we did.. And yeah." He paused for a moment. "I just met Alexandra at the clubs. She traveled a lot because she's a model, and I seen her a few times, then we had a thing."
"How long did you have a thing with her before I found out?" Aria wondered.
"Four months." Jimmy bit his lip.
Aria nodded and looked down. All this information was hard to process. "Why do you think I gave you another chance and said yes to your proposal? And don't say it's because I love you, together or not, I will always have a spot for you in my heart because you are the father of my child."
He grabbed her hand, "Because you seen that I am changing. And not just for you but for Viv as well. I don't want her to grow up and research her dad then all she sees is the dumb things I did."
"You know how dumb it made me look right?" She blinked rapidly, trying to fight the tears.
"I do. I'm sorry, I didn't mean for you to look like that." He sighed and dropped his head.
"Before the divorce.. And when I was pregnant, I would wait for you to come home from the club. I'd be up at two, three, waiting until you walked through that door. And little did I know, you were cheating." She cried.
"Aria... Please don't cry." Jimmy whispered as tears of his own, threatened to run down his face.
"I hid it too. After I found out.. I could've released the videos but I didn't cause I wanted to protect you. Because I would wait all night for you to warm me up, and you haven't once thought of me."
"I know," He went and bent between her legs, the tears pouring down. "I did some stupid shit to you and you didn't not deserve it. If anything, I deserve it. And you did, you did protect me and my career. I thank you so much for that."
