ALWAYS AND FOREVER

Cross Pov

“Hey, are you okay?”

I asked her as she came back from the restroom but she didn’t answer me, she just sat down.

“What happened?”

I asked again.

“Please dont ask me, go ask the woman who is supposed to be your bride,”

She said in a low voice but knew who she was talking about, as I looked around, I saw her among the guest and stood up.

“I am coming, and when I come back we are leaving,”

I said to her and left.

“What do you want Dolly? Why are you here in Arizona? Why can’t you just take a hint and fuck off?”

I asked as I dragged Dolly to the other side of the reception hall, away from people, I had seen her when she came in but had ignored thinking she will behave herself but I was wrong, she spoke with Katherine, not like I had to explain to her but she hadn’t looked happy with the confrontation, I knew instantly that Dolly had spoken to her.

“Let go of me Cross, you are hurting me,”

“I told you to stay the fuck away from me so why are you stalking me? And what did you tell my wife?”

I asked, I couldn’t believe I was already addressing Katherine as my wife but that’s what she was anyway.

“I didn’t tell her anything that is not true, I told her we had a thing, and it is true, you broke things off with me when I wasn’t even ready, you can’t just up and toss me aside and expect me to leave while you are happily married, it doesn’t work that way,”

“I didn’t break things off with you, we never had a thing, what we had was a fling, you were aware, I never asked you for anything, we had an affair, affairs don’t last, I never told you anything neither did I give you any false hope, so if you know what’s good for you, you better get the fuck out of this place before I do something that might not end well for you,”

I said in anger, I just don’t get which part of everything that I have been saying that she didn’t get, I wanted to shake her to get her senses back.

“I refuse to be tossed aside, you have to take responsibility for my feelings for you,”

She replied, I couldn’t help it I busted out laughing, moving away from her a wall a few distances before coming back to stand in front of her with a stern face.

“Dolly, listen and listen real good because I am not going to repeat myself, I don’t care what you feel, I don’t care how you feel, what I do know is that I want you out of my face, or if I decided to act the way you are making me, you are gonna lose everything, including that precious career of yours, so while I am still nice for the very last time, get the fuck out of my life, and don’t you ever come close to my wife say anything to her, I have warned you,”

I said making sure she saw how serious I was, it would only take leaking one of her many unholy deeds for her to lose a lot of deals which will shout her up for good.

“What are you going to do? Release our sex tape?”

“What? I don’t have any of those, I don’t do that kind of shits, so get off my face, I have warned you already, this is the last time I will speak to you,”

“I fucking hate you Cross, and I hope she knows that you are a fucking monster, you don’t deserve her or any woman, you don’t have respect for somen, you use us to do your binding and toss us aside when you want, your kinds should never be happy, and I will be back for sure to show you that you are just another male who feels over-entitled,”

“The feeling is mutual Dolly now fuck off before I change my mind.”

“You are worst than a monster, I wish people would see through you and see the kind of evil human you are, you are not even supposed to be called human,”

She said and I laughed.

“You know all that so why are you still following me? Don’t you think you should be running it I might do something bad to you, ?”

“Shut the fuck up, I am out of here, but I wish you would experience the kind of pain I am feeling now,”

She replied and walked off, I didn’t even bother to turn back and watch her, I went back into the reception hall, looking for my mom, I found her with a group of women who I knew were her friends.

“Mom, I will like to leave now, I am tired so Kat and I will go ahead,”

I said pulling her from the women and Boeing in apology.

“Oh, okay, your wife looks tired too, you guys tried a lot today, I am proud of you son,”

She said hugging me.

“Okay then, will be heading home first,”

“Home? Not home, we booked a hotel for your first night together, why will you go home when it will be filled with people, you guys need time together as a couple, it’s your wedding night,”

“Ma!! I never asked you to do that, I am fine with going home and sleeping on my bed tonight, it’s nothing special,”

I said making sure the other women didn’t hear the last part, they were already looking and straining their ears to hear what I and my mom were talking about.

“No way, wedding nights are special and yours won’t be anything different alright, now go to get your wife while I go tell the driver to drop you guys off,”

“Fine, you are such a pest,”

I said giving in, I hoped the hotel at least have a big sofa or a big bed, we were not gonna spend the night doing what my mom expect us to do, that wasn’t part of the marriage deal Katherine and I had, I already have the papers, I will have her sign it soon before we leave for New York, my mom insisted on us going on a honeymoon, later gave up when even Kathrine had said she didn’t want a honeymoon.

“You love me,”

She responded and I rolled my eyes before adding an “unfortunately”

“Please can you tell Dean that I am off, I can’t seem to get a hold on him,”

I said, I couldn’t find a best friend and supposed best man, I haven’t seen him since after the toast.

“Sure, dear, do have a good rest, and also walk on making me some grandbabies,”

My mom said and I rolled my eyes.

“Whatever mom,”

I said snd left her there to go look for my wife, I can’t believe I have to call her that, I found her sitting alone where I left her, she had that sad and distant look I have come to accompany her with, I couldn’t tell if that how she always have been or if whattt happened to her had turned her to the sadist, over the last few weeks I have tried to learn little details about her but I couldn’t do much on the internet, although her family were sometimes on the news and net, she mostly wasn’t seen, even her social media had few photos of her and he didn’t see much there either, she just posts photos of her with either an emoji or a two-letter word, she saw me watching her and waved smiling weakly in my direction, this was the first time she had smiled at me, I wondered what happened when I left her to confront Dolly, she had been upset, and I expected her to still be, I turned around and it dawned on me that she wasn’t smiling at me beither was she waving at me, she was waving at the guy beside me, I didn’t know why I felt upset but I did, whoever he was I didn’t want him near her, walking up to her I pulled her up.

“We are leaving now,”

“What? I need to speak to my friend,”Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

She said pulling her hands off, and pointing In the guy’s direction, I turned back and saw him smiling which made me even more upset.

“You are not serious, if you don’t come with me right now, I’m leaving you here and you can come on your own,”

I said walking off, I didn’t look back until I got to where our car was parked and got in only then did I look and saw that she had followed behind me, she got into the car and we drove off to the hotel in silence. I couldn’t come up with a legit explanation as to why I acted the way I did, I should have allowed her to talk to her friend, it not like we were a real couple so why did I act that way, I couldn’t come up with an answer but I promised myself that I would never do that again, she could meet whoever she wants to meet and I would not stop her, and I want her to do the same, I will make her sign the document before we leave, I just hope I won’t be the one to break that boundary, there is only one woman for me and I lost her ten years ago, no other woman would take my heart, no one else, not even my new wife…
