Melinoe

"How dare you,and how could you? Will you only feel bad when they find out. If you take it back all back, would you?"- Billie Eilish, Your Power.

"You said you needed to talk." I folded my arms and a good be fire the man who was sitting on the bed. "Yes."

"So?"

"Uhh, Melinoe I wanted to talk about us," I knitted my brows. "More about me then us honestly." He scratched the back of his neck and I couldn't help but be shocked at what I was seeing. Was Aaron Garcia, Aaron Freaking Garcia nervous right now?

Never had I seen such a put up man nervous. "Look I know I haven't been the perfect boyfriend nor fiancé, but I want to be the perfect husband and perfect dad."

Dad?

A dad?

"W-what?"

"I'm talking far ahead in our future love," I breathed in and realized. "Oh." I simply said. And for some reason I was far from disappointed on what he just added on. "Would it be that bad having a baby with me?"

"No, no. It's not that Aaron it's just- you're rarely here at home, barely have any time to spend or to even talk to me so it's kind of, I don't know- sudden? I don't know I just didn't expect it. We don't have time to talk about all of these things so, you know, it's shocking."

"Right and that's exactly what I wanted to talk to about." He got up and took my hands into his. "Melinoe Montez, I know I haven't been the perfect partner, I know I'm not always there, you've forgiven me, mistake after mistake and I just think you deserve so much more. But I think my love is to strong to actually let you go. Yet I'm way to selfish to let you go with some else. So from this day on, I promise to be the best husband I can be, I promise more of my time and devotion. I promise to give to you all the things I couldn't give you before."

"Aaron-"

"No you deserve it." I stared into his blue eyes and searched for sincerity and I found it. But I didn't know if it was my eyes fooling me for the millionth time because I wasn't sure on how many times that I had seen that sincerity. What if I was fooling myself once again? What if I was just letting myself be fooled.

But he wouldn't intentionally hurt me right?Aaron wouldn't do that to me. "Forgive me," he shut his eyes and I watched as a tear rolled down. "I- there's nothing to forgive you for," I whispered as our foreheads touched. "There's so many reasons, so many. And I just need you to forgive me. "

"I forgive you Aaron okay? I forgive you." His lips crashed into mine almost immediately and I melted into it. I could taste the salty ness of his tears and suddenly the man in front of me wasn't Aaron anymore. It was Damon.

My heart dropped at the sight before me. I was naked, covered in my sheets with Aaron Garcia, my fiancé. My future husband so why did it feel so wrong?

Why did I suddenly feel guilty?

Maybe it was because yesterday I was making out with his brother and then later on last night I made love with Aaron? Maybe? Yes, no?

I don't even know.

This was what I've always wanted wasn't it? Why was I not smiling then? I wanted him to give me more time, be a better fiancé. So why was I like this?

Suddenly, the sound of my phone's ringtone snapped me out of my thoughts and I saw it on my nightstand. I picked the phone up and I saw it was a text from someone.

And that someone was Damon.

Damon:

We need to talk, be ready, I'm coming.

I blinked at the text about 10 times and it clear as day that my eyes were not deceiving me. Damon was coming over- now. Like now, now.

I placed my phone back and right as I was about to get out of these sheets, I felt a hand wrap around my waist."Good morning,"

"Morning,"

"Where are you going so soon?"

"The bathroom." I answered and was about to move but he stopped me. His blue eyes stared into mine intensely and he looked suspicious of something. "What's wrong?" I whispered.

"Nothing, give me a kiss." I smiled a bit and gave him a peck on the lips before I got off the bed with my sheets covering me. Oh no- I forgot my phone.

Melinoe Mariá Luísa Montez, how more stupid can you actually be? I tugged my hair and just decided to start off my morning by quickly brushing my teeth. Once I was done, I hopped into the shower and made sure the water was warm enough to relax my tense muscles.

Once I was out, I wrapped a towel around my body and was about to put on my robe but found that it wasn't in the bathroom.

You have got to be kidding.

I opened the bathroom door and saw Aaron getting up from the bed. "Hey baby have you seen my robe somewhe-" my words were cut off by the sound of the door opening. And there he was, his piercing blue eyes locked with my hazel green ones.

"What are you d-"

"Nothing nothing, I just came to tell you both that breakfast is ready. I didn't know that I'd be interrupting something." I chose to stay silent and not say anything. And it would've been useless because he was gone within a second.
