Have you ever loved someone so much it physically hurt? Like youre entire body will shut down if they arent in your life. Like you cant sleep at night without them by your side. How about when you want to be so close to them, that you'd just crawl into their skin if you could? Sounds weird, right? Thats how I feel though. Like I cant breathe without him in my sight. I would do absolutely anything to spend every second of the day in his presence. This cant be normal. This is absolutely an illness, but oh what a way to live.
I'm married to my high school sweetheart. I just turned 21. Bo and I have been together since I was 15 and he was 16. He is my best friend, was my first for everything. We got married right out of high school. He's your typical boy next door with his all American looks. Six foot and muscular, quarterback of our high school team. Go Wolverines! I was on our high school cheer team. We are a match made in heaven. With us both having blond hair and blue eyes, we are going to make the cutest babies. Thats on hold though because I'm only in my second year of college, Bo is in his third year. He is going for business and I'm going for nursing.
My Pathology class let out pretty early today. We're coming up on the end of our first semester so our professor only had a study guide to hand out to us today. SinceI'm out early and have no more classes for the day since my Psychology class was canceled for today, I go to our favorite restaurant, Bruno's, to pick up some burgers and fries for me and Bo as a surprise for him. I also stop by and pick up his dry cleaning, he likes to wear dressy clothes for his classes. He always says to dress for the job you want, and he's hoping to make it big. He already has an internship lined up with Hudson Co in their marketing department. That means that I have to pick up extra shifts at the nursing home to make sure we get to keep our apartment, but that's ok. I'll do anything to make sure he follows his dreams.
I juggle the dry cleaning and the burgers in one hand while pulling my keys out of my purse with the other hand. It's a little run down in here with paint chipping off the walls and stained carpet from the 90's but it's home to me. We'll get something better once we both graduate and get steady jobs. I'm hoping to go into labor and delivery, babies make me so happy. Unlocking the door, i push it open with my hip and step into the front room, aka the living room. We have a sectional couch thats deep brown and so cozy you just sink right in to it, many nights are spent sleeping on that couch. Our TV is sitting on a small table thats supposed to be a coffee table but we made it into a TV stand. The lamp behind the couch is turned on giving the space a cozy feel. I walk to the kitchen thats connected to the living room and set down the burgers. The kitchen is small with just enough room for an oven and a fridge. A little bit of counter space, but not much. But, hey, the rent was cheap and beggars cant be choosers.
"Bo! I'm home." I yell out while taking my scarf off and making my way towards the bedroom on the other side of the living room. I could hear some music coming from the bedroom so I just open the door to show him that I am home. What i find on the other side of that door absolutely destroys my heart. I feel like I cant breathe. Bo is laying on the bed with a brown headed woman bouncing up and down on his lap. She has nothing on except for the sheet covering her hips. The dry cleaning slips out of my hands and falls to the floor with a thump. Bo looks up from the womans bouncing breasts and his eyes go comically wide.
"T-Tilly!" He yells and shoves the woman off him, then cllimbs from the bed. His cock is still hard and wet from the acts that were just happening. He wasnt wearing a condom either. Weird the little things you notice when your heart is quite literally falling to pieces. I cant look him in the eyes and decide to take in the state of our room. Theres clothes everywhere like they were in a hurry to undress eachother. I look over at his hands that are reaching for me and his wedding ring is nowhere in sight. I let out a little chuckle. How stupid am I? I feel like the butt of everyones jokes right now. How many of his buddies he went to the bar with every weekend knew what he was doing but smiled in my face when I invite them over for dinner. I literally am the perfect wife. We have sex nightly, I cook and make his plate for him. I clean this shit hole of an apartment daily so he doesnt have to worry about it. I work multiple times a week to keep food in our bellies and a roof over our head. I do it all so he can live comfortably and chase after his career. He doesnt work or clean or do anything but go to school and then the bars on weekends.
I'm still laughing as I watch his mediocre cock deflate.
"No Bo." Is all I get out. I'm still fighting for my breath.
"Bo, who is this woman?" The female in my bed asks. IN MY BED.
"I'm no one anymore." I walk over to the closet and throw it open. Bo reaches for me and I slap his hands away.
"Don't fucking touch me." I grit out. He takes a step back and runs his fingers through his hair as he watches me pack my clothes from the closet.
"Tilly, lets talk about this. Don't overreact." He pleads with me. I scoff. Overreact? I'm so numb im not reacting at all other than moving to the dresser and packing my things from there. I ignore Bo and and slam the last drawer closed. I turn to leave and he blocks the door.
" You are not leaving me." He says between gritted teeth. I roll my eyes and push him out of the way. The woman in my, im sorry, Bo's bed stumbles out with my silk sheets wrapped around her body. She's beautiful, thats for sure. Curves in all the right places, a big chest and a rounded butt. I could see the appeal of her. I'ts not her fault, she obviously didnt know he was married. No. Fuck that. There's pictures all over this apartment of Bo and I since high school. There's definitely a womans touch in this apartment. What man had silk sheets like that? They're purple! There's no way she doesnt see that a woman lives here too. There is only one bedroom in this apartment.
" I think I am." I calmly say. I dont have it in me to get angry and fight right now. I just want to leave and go somewhere else. I walk up to him and push him aside as I walk out of the bedroom and towards the front door. Sadly everything I own fits in this duffle bag. I walk over to the counter where i put my keys down and take the apartment key off the hook and lay it gently down on the counter. I take one more look around my home. Im still numb to it all but i know I'll never be the same again. I go to the door and open it to hear Bo call my name one more time, I turn to look at him and the woman is clinging to his arm. His eyes are drawn down and his face looks broken. Is it me he's going to miss or the easy life he's had that he'll miss? I close the door behind me and walk down the run down hallway of the complex. I take the stairs from the second floor to the first and go to my black Honda Civic. I only have a week left of tests before we're let out for winter break. I drive to the bank and take all my money out of the account, leaving two hundred in there for Bo. My next stop is the closest motel to the college. My phone is blowing up with calls and texts not just from Bo but also our group of friends. All telling me that I'm over reacting and that Bo and i are destined to be together. I throw my phone out the window as I drive down the road. I'm leaving this life behind me.
Have you ever loved someone so much that it absolutely destroys everything about you? Your confidence, your self worth. EVERYTHING. Because I have and I swear I never will again.
