...........................................Y/N POV.................................................................................

Almost 2 weeks had passed since Mark had left and I hadn't heard from him. It wasn't a shock, I didn't expect to see him again, I'd begun to accept that now. 

My boyfriend was due home any minute and I felt sick. 

I heard his key in the lock and I desperately wanted to run away, but I knew I had to do this. 

"Hey babe" he grinned as he walked through the door, I stood and attempted a smile, he didn't notice how fake it was. He dropped his bags and wrapped his arms around me, I hugged him back but it wasn't as enthusiastic as usual and he sensed it.

"Is everything ok?" he asked sounding worried,

"No really" I sighed, he face dropped as I pulled him to sit down "we need to talk"

"What about?" he asked, confusion and worry in his eyes,

"I need to tell you something and its no going to be easy to listen to" I explained,

"Babe please just tell me you're scaring me now" he attempted to chuckle but it sounded shaky.

I took a deep breath and told him everything, well not everything....the general picture. 

He just sat there staring at me afterwards.

"Please say something" I sighed, voice breaking.

"You cheated on me?" he finally spoke, hearing those words out loud made me feel dirty and horrible, tears began to fall.

"I'm sorry" I whispered

"Did you sleep with him?" he asked, I shook my head quickly "But you got close?" I just nodded, I could see he was getting angry. 

He stood up and started pacing, running his hands over his face. 

"I don't know what to do here" he sighed leaning against the wall,

"I'm sorry" I said again

"Stop saying that" he snapped "Because you're not!"

"I am" I cried "I didn't want to hurt you"

"But you're not sorry you did it!" he yelled, I didn't answer. "For god sake Y/N I love you!"

"I lo..." I started to say but he interrupted

"Don't say that!" he interrupted "because you don't"

"I do love you" I sobbed "I'm just not in love with you the way I thought I was"

"You don't hurt people you love!" he snapped

"I'm sorry" I said again,

"Save it!" he hissed, "I wont bother unpacking" he grabbed his bags and stormed out of the house. 

I rang Heather straight away and cried until it was time to sleep.


...........................................MARK's POV.................................................................................

It had been over 2 weeks since I'd got back home and I still hadn't told my wife anything or decided what I wanted. 

I was happy now that I was home. My wife had been all over me after being apart and I had missed her. I felt like it had all been a dream. Surely if I felt the way I thought I did about Y/N, I wouldn't be able to sleep with my wife. But I had, and I'd loved it.
