Hiding True Feelings, chapter 5
Given it two years to it let everything sink in, never was there a day that went by that she didn't think of Mike and how much she missed him. She settled into her seat as her answering machine was playing another message from Mike. After giving it time to think finally decided to call Mike back. Since he has called atleast ten times by now. With a shaky hand, she picked up the phone and dialed the number to his house.
The phone rang a few times and she cursed under her breath when the machine picked up. She let out a sigh and began speaking at the beep, "Mike...pick up the phone. I know you're there..Listen Mike I know what you did was really wrong and it hurt me a lot. The thing is I miss you a lot. Hanging up the phone now since it was the end of the message.
Slamming the phone down and walking to the sofa to try and watch something. No such luck since there was nothing at all on the TV. That is when I decided to call up some of my friends and we could all head to a bar. Twenty minutes after my best friend Briggette arrives first. Followed by my cousin Melissa and her friend Christina. Next after Amber arrives we all get into my car and head to the nearest bar.
Were hear I look over and tell everyone. Made sure we parked up close to the front. Making out way into the bar now for the start of our girls night out.Briggette stops facing me asking me.
"Brittney are you sure your all right?" Briggette said
"Yes I will be fine its just hard to get over him," Brittney said
"Lets get this girls night out wild party started I yelled to everyone," Brittney said
Embraced into a long warm hug from my best friend. We all sat at a booth near the back of the bar. Ordered myself a few shots of tequila. This might help try to ease some of the pain I was feeling. Next my friends ordered a big bottle of rum. Amber suggests they should take turns with Jell-O shots and playing quarters.
Amber and I decide it would be much fun to dance. Amber leads me out on the small little area for them to dance to a couple of songs.Suddenly I stop dancing right in the middle of the song. The strangest feeling ever just came over me. I looked up and saw Mike entering the bar.Damm she thought to herself he looked really good wearing a black wifebeater and tight jeans. Continued thinking to herself stop it Brittney you shouldn't think this way after he hurt you.
Just then this tall and handsome stranger walks up over to where Amber,Brigette and me were dancing. By that time Briggette had walked over to them to join in all the dancing. The tall and handsome stranger comes out asking him if he could dance with us. He tells Amber that his name is Eric. Just then a slow song comes on and Amber and Eric began dancing together.
So much for out girls night out. I felt a tap on my shoulder and turned out to see that it was Mike. I can't believe it he was standing right in front of me only inches apart. For some reason hope this won't be the last time I see him. Slowly Mike starts to grab my hand and asks me if I want to dance. Not sure why I said yes when I know I should have said no.Smiling at him weakly, letting out a sigh as we began to dance.
After our dance we all head back to our table followed by Mike and Eric. Mike sat down on the seat next to me. My voice trailed off as i searched for the words. Just then, the bartender sat the pitcher of beer they had order in front of me. Thankful for the slight interruption, I looked at Mike and smiled at him.Now were facing one another both of us having a drink in our hands.
"Buy you a drink?" the bartender said.
"Sure that would be fine," Brittney said.
Mike looked at the bartender. "No, the drinks are on me." He quickly makes the order to bartender that they would like some cheechs and proceeds with the conversation with Brittney.
"Hello Brit how have you been?" Mike says to Brittney.
"I been all right i guess i said to him with sadness," Brittney replies.
Mike senses the sadness and begins to tell Brittney that he's having marriage problems and Imight be getting a divorce. Too many fights and nothings good came out of the marriage.
Only that she had my daughter. She had a girl I ask Mike. Mike replies telling her yeah and that her name is Estelle Desire.Congrations to you Mike I bet your a great dad.
Shocked and surprised at what he said to me. It replayed over and over in my mindas if it was some kind of record that you could play over and over again. I know i had to make sure what he said was true and I wasn't just hearing things. Which caused me to ask Mike what did he just say to me? He repeated what he said.I leaned over and hugged Mike and told him i am sorry to hear that.
As its now only three am the bar is ready to close and everyone has left but us. Eric and Amber exchange phone numbers. Eric leaves first before any of us do. All of my friends head back home driving my car I gave the keys to Briggette. Since Mike and I wanted to catch up and hang out still he offer to take me back to his place. His own place not one with his wife but an apartment of his own. He was driving a nice new rented BMW which he rented for about a week since he hasn't brought his own car yet.
Twenty minutes later we arrive safe and unharmed to his apartment. I say safe since we were both pretty wasted by now. Searching for his keys in his pocket with one hand. Leaving his right hand free he uses it to pull me close to him. Close enough that we stand there looking smiling and looking into each other eyes.Mike has some really beautiful blue eyes and any girl could get lost in those eyes of his.
He uses that very moment to lean in, and kiss me causing it to shock me but at the same time I felt so excited enough to take my breath away. Still standing there right in front of his apartment door kissing passionately causing me to feel weak in my knees. He gets the keys opening his door which is downstairs which is good that we don't have to walk miles upstairs. As were still kissing while he's unlocking his apartment door never once breaking the kiss
We settled into his apartment passing the sofa and dinning room making our way straight to his bedroom. Still kissing we both fall on the bed causing me to land on top of him. Coming up for some air now we both are so into the moment that it causes us to forget his marriage and that he hurt me big time. All the bad things its like it never happen. At this very moment in time, it feels like we were never really apart. Both way into the mood and wanting each other badly that were just literally ripping each others clothes off and throwing there on the floor. Now going at it for the second time but this time Mike rolls over and he's on top of me.
Sun is coming through the window I guess it must be morning. I glance over to look at the clock and I was wrong it wasn't morning at all. It was now almost two 'oclock in the afternoon. My head was pounding away and aching majorly.
Everything looked really unfamiliar and strange to me. I turned to my right and noticed Mike was next to me. Began rubbing my eyes thinking it was just a dream. It didn't work because it wasn't a dream at all. The man I have been in love with for the longest time was laying in bed naked next to me. Too happy for words to ever desirable.
"Oh my God!" I screamed!
I guess it was loud enough because Mike started to wake up. He sits up and says, "What's wrong beautiful? Did something happen?"
"No everything is all fine now, just was a little unsure at first," I told him. He smiles his beautiful big smile of his and pulls me next to him to where I am laying in his arms.
The doorbell rings while we are going at it in bed at this very moment for the third time
