ADONIS
I stood in the staff bathroom for a long time after she left.

I gritted my teeth against the sting of her slap that was still there.

I stood in the bathroom with clenched hands and just watched as the door swung shut behind her.

I looked at the basin where she had been standing and closed my eyes tight.

She was so close, her perfume surrounded me, her softness pressing hard against me.

She had looked so....I frowned, so ready to kiss until I had to spoil that moment by insulting her son.

"That was low Adonis." I muttered, even if I was furious at her, her son is innocent and I had no right to call him a bastard.

I almost took back the words at the way she had reacted, her eyes had snapped open with a look of raw hurt that I had immediately regretted my words, I had seen her palm coming to my cheek but I had let her slap me because I deserved it.
I had meant to hurt her, I wanted her to feel the pain she had inflicted on me all these years but then, her next word just before she left got me confused.

How dare she accuse me of abandoning her when she was the one who left and got married to another man?

I went back to my room, sat on the edge of the bed and just stared blankly at the wall.

I pressed my hands over my face and sat there.

Something was not right, it had been sitting wrong since I had met her again but I just couldn't figure out what.

Why does she always look so hurt whenever she saw me, I should be the one feeling that way....or, was her husband not treating her right?

Of course he wasn't, if he was, she wouldn't be here serving drinks right?

Maybe she needs saving from her husband, maybe...

I caught myself on my trail of thought and laughed coldly at my self, "what, so you want to be her knight in shining armor? I scoffed and plough on my bed.

Whatever concerns her was not his business and would not be his business.

After the final match, he was leaving and never looking back.

MICA

I got home and sat on Leo's bedroom floor in the dark and listened to him breathe.

He was asleep on his back with his arms spread wide the way he always slept, completely surrendered to it, and I sat on the floor beside his bed and listened to the small even sound of his breathing and thought about the beautiful moment that created such sweetheart.

Adonis had called him a bastard not knowing that Leo was actually his son.

I pressed my hand against the cold floor and looked at Leo's sleeping face in the dark and felt the love of it, even though his father was a jerk, he at least gave her this adorable son.

Adonis hadn't gotten the chance to see Leo's face otherwise, he would have known that Leo was his son because of the striking resemblance he has with his son.

The eyes is the most striking resemblance of all, Leo had his father's eyes and I had been looking at them every day for four years and feeling the ache of that each time because I couldn't look at him and not think about his father.

I kept telling myself it was fine and that Leo was enough, I don't care if he reminded me of his father everyday, he was my son and the only one who fulfilled me, I did not need anything else but seeing him today with those girls, standing so close to him in the bathroom with his breath fanning over my face, I couldn't help but admit that every wall I thought I had built around myself was a lie.

I got up slowly.

Went to the kitchen and made tea but I couldn't not drink it because it suddenly taste so bitter in my mouth.

It's time that I admit it at least to myself, I am still very much in love with Adonis...it hurts.



He found her at the lobby the next morning.

He had been awake since four and had gone through the thought a hundred times in the dark of his room and by the time the morning came he was not going to training first, he was going to find her first.

She looked up when he came in the lobby and her face went completely still but composed and was careful as if she was preparing for a fight.

He walked to her and stopped in front of her.

"What do you want now?" She asked and tilted her chin stubbornly towards him.

He almost smiled, that action reminded him of the old Mica, feisty.

"I am sorry," he said. "For what I said last night. About your son. I had no right to say that."

Mica's jaw dropped and she looked at him wide eyed, was he actually apologizing?

She held his gaze and shrugged before answering, "Thank you," and made to move passed him but he stopped her by grabbing her arm.

They both felt the jolt immediately, it was like he was a flame and she was being drawn to him like a moth.

She gasped and he quickly let go of her like she actually burned him.

"Mica," he whispered dangerously low and the sound of that voice sent liquids straight to her middle.

What was wrong with her? She was about to cum at just the sound of his voice, was she so starved of sex? After Adonis she hadn't been with anyone in that kind of way, she had been as o busy with her pregnancy and then taking care of her baby to even think about that, again, no one has even been able to awaken that part of her until she met Adonis, again.

"Adonis." She whispered back, her body floating closer to him of it's own volition

His eyes burned into hers and her breath hitch, she pressed her legs together to release the pressure between her legs and just as she was ready to fling out all the anger and just beg him to take her, slender arms slid around his waist from behind and she felt like someone had just poured her a bucket full of ice water.

It was the lady he was kissing the other night.

Adonis felt them before he saw them and turned his head to see her pressed her lips on his cheek and her hands linked at his stomach.

He could feel Mica's eyes on him and growled at the girl, what the hell was wrong with all these desperate girls? I cursed inwardly.

Mica straightened and started to leave, desperately, I opened my mouth to call out to her but then the lobby doors opened and Cara walked in.

"There you are, I've been looking for you everywhere." She said sweetly to Adonis and then fixed a cold glare on the girl's face, "Hands off my man." She warned icily and Adonis groaned out loud, he doesn't know which was worst.
