Katherine
I get up to open the door, but then realize that I'm still naked. I quickly put on a bathrobe and open the door for Fernandez. "Hey sweetheart, who were you talking to?". "No one, just catching up with Léon". I hate that I'm lying to him. "I'm going to take a shower okay." I say to Fernandez and continue to go to the bathroom. "How about we take a shower together" he says with a smirk on his face. I really don't want to. "I'm sorry love, I'm really tired. I just want to take a shower and read a book before I go to sleep. Tomorrow is a long day at the ball" I give him a kiss on the lips and close the bathroom door behind me.
When I get out of the shower Fernandez is already asleep. I crawl into bed with him. "Hey Fernandez" I say quietly not trying to scare him. "Yeh" he lets our a soft whisper. "I'm sorry if you think I'm not happy with you, I am. I'm just a bit confused right now". "I know that you're happy with me Katherine, but..." he stops. "But what?". "But you don't love me" he stared at the ceiling. He looked hurt and disappointed. "I love you Katherine. You make me want to wake up in the morning knowing that you'll be lying there next to me, you make me want to watch those stupid romantic movies just to see your innocent reaction crying when they finally have their happy ending at the end of the movie, you make me want to dance in the rain with you and do all of those hopeless romantic stuff. Don't you get it by now? You make me want to live, but you have to make up your mind about us. I can't live our lives for the two of us. I can't keep living in this lie, it will destroy me" ending with a crack in his voice.
I bite my lip, trying to hold back my tears. "I'm sorry Fernandez". That's all I can say to him right now, because I know he is right and this isn't fair. He lets out a big sigh, "get some sleep Kath". He turns off the light on the nightstand. "Fernandez?" "Yes?", "are we going to be alright?" I ask him with tears in my eyes. "Only time will tell my love, but I truly hope so" he gave me a soft kiss on my forehead and went to sleep. I felt myself fade away as well shortly after.
