“Mary? Where have you been?” said Marcel while staring at Edward
“Oh, Edward showed me around the mall” I said while walking to the door
“Yeah, we were both home alone and bored. How was work?” asked Edward
“It was fine, thank you”
“Alright guys, um… I’m going inside.”

I walked through the door and shut it behind me I could hear the faint whispers between Edward and Marcel.

“Edward, where’d you take her?”
“To the mall, like she said.”
“Don’t try anything with her Edward, please. I love her. Don’t be like Harry.”
“Calm down Marcy. I’m not doing anything with her. I just thought it would be a good idea to get her of the house instead of leaving her here all alone while you were at ‘work’”
“I was at work.”
“Sure you were. Both me and Harry know you cheated on Mary.”
“I didn’t cheat!”
“You cheated. No matter how drunk you were Marcel. You cheated. Don’t mess things up more than you already have. I know Harry wouldn’t mind taking her off your hands.”
“I don’t want her ‘taken off my hands’. I love her, more than anything and you know that. That kiss with Ester meant absolutely nothing.”
“Then why didn’t you tell Mary? Why did you lie to her?”
“I don’t know… I can’t lose her Edward please... understand.”
“Understand this. You tell her. Or I will.”

I stood there, crying behind the door. Marcel cheated on me. Then lied about it… and Edward was forcing him to tell me. I wasn’t sure what to do so I just went into the kitchen and sat on a stool.

Marcel walked back inside and closed the door behind him.

“Mary, there’s something I have to tell you.”
“Save it Marcel. I heard everything…”
“Mary, I’m so sorry.”
“Yeah so am I.” I said while taking off my ring and throwing it at him “Get out Marcel.”
“No! Mary, please my love, listen to me!”
“I’ve heard enough. Leave!” I cried

Marcel got on his knees

“No. Mary, Mary, I promise, it didn’t mean anything to me! I was drunk please, please understand!”
“You lied to me! It was so simple for you to lie to me! Go Marcel, I don’t want to see you anymore.”
“No, no it wasn’t Mary please!”
“Just go!”

He got up. His eyes were red and I couldn’t help but to sob into my hands.

“Mary. I’m so sorry… I’ll regret it for the rest of my life. I love you.”

I stood there and said nothing as he walked out the door.

After crying for a couple of hours I received a text message, from Edward.

                Mary, you alright?
No… How could I be?
                I’m coming over.
Ed, it’s late, you don’t have to.
                Come open the door.

I opened the door and let him in. My face was covered in mascara and my hair was a mess.

“Oh hey Mary, you look great. Love what you’ve done with your hair by the way, beautiful.” He joked while walking to the sofa
“Please stop! I’m a mess.” I laughed
“You look fine. Go wash your face though. I brought some snacks, we’ll watch a movie to get your mind off things.”
“Edward, I don’t want to… I know you’re trying to help, but you know for some odd reason you remind me a lot of Marcel. I have no idea why.” I said sarcastically

Edward laughed and I went to the bathroom to wash my face. I finished and walked back to the sofa. I was still hurting a lot and I couldn’t help but start to cry again.

“Mary don’t cry, I know you’re upset, but things get better.”
“Not for me they don’t. Whenever I finally have something good I end up losing it.”
“It’ll be fine Mary, I promise… come here” He said while putting his arm around my shoulder.

I fell asleep on the sofa long before the movie was over, Edward left when it ended…
