I Don't Love You Anymore

Chapter 6 - F*ck Benny

I didn't have a good feeling about going out tonight. It was suspicious that Alice wanted to go to a place Benny frequented. They got on well, but they were opposites.Alice never liked the places he did. I wasn't about to let her go alone, though. So here I stood Alice on my arm in front of a booming nightclub. We make our way inside, and I see that it actually wasn't as bad as I thought. I was expecting more of a fratboy atmosphere, and while it did still have that, it also felt like it had a hint of class. The music was loud, but the people weren't very rowdy. As we pushed further in looking for a table, I had to correct myself. It was rowdy, but only with one particular table. I tried to pay them no mind as I wade through the sea of people to a table with Alice. Once seated, though, I knew it was a mistake for us to be here. From where we sat, we had a full view of not only the bar but the rowdy table from earlier. The table was filled with bottles, some being drunk, and some just knocked over going to waste. The annoying laughter of the girls eventually drove me to give them an annoyed look. When I looked over, however, I saw Benny in the corner with his arm around a leggy brunette and his tongue down her throat. I pulled out my phone and quickly got a picture, not wanting him to lie his way out later. Then I tap Alice on her shoulder, who was still looking at the menu. She glanced up, and I mime with my thumb to the loud table. She looked confused at first only for her face to harden as she got a better look at Benny, who had just come up for air. Without waiting a second long, she was out of her seat and nearly flying towards him. I barely had time to catch up with her.

She stood there before his table waiting for him to notice. It took him a minute, but when he finally pulled away from the brunette, probably to whisper something disgusting to her, he caught on to the quietness of the table. He glanced around till his eyes finally landed on hers going white as a sheet. He pushed the brunette off. She protests, but he's already out of his seat trying to plead to Alice.

"Baby! What are you doing here?" He asked nervously. "You know this club isn't for you." Alice's eyes flash with anger "Yes I can see why." She practically hissed to him. "How else would you have a good time on my credit card if I was to know you're using it to cheat." "Baby no! I swear it's not like that. I was just giving her some advice. She's going into the same major as me and just needed some pointers." "I'm sure she did, " Alice retorted with disgust while glancing at his barely concieled b***r. "We're over. Not only are we over but you will be paying me back for every past dime spent with my card.You have till the end of the month of I will destroy everything you have." She turns on her heel and walks out of the club. I couldn't let him get by with just that. Not after he blatantly showed off his affair. I brought my hand up and slap him hard across his face, making sure my rings were turned inward. Seeing the satisfying mark I made, I spit at him before following Alice out.

She was slumped over with her head in her hands on the bench outside. It was hard seeing her like that. I never liked Benny, but I knew how much she did. They had been together for 3 years now. She had started talked about maybe marrying him. He always made her smile, so to see her broken on the street because of him had me wishing I'd hit him more. "Hey." I say, sitting down next to her. "I should have known he was cheating. He was probably doing it the whole time. I saw all the signs. The late nights, not answering his phone. I knew something was off, but I didn't want to believe it." She sobbed into me. "It's not your fault. You thought he was a good guy."He made me laugh. Was there when mom had her surgery. How could he do this? He said he loved me." I couldn't answer her. Why someone would throw away the best thing in their life I'll never understand. "I'll take you home." I say gently. "No!" She says stubbornly, looking up at me with her tearful streaked face. "We came out to give you a good night." She angrily wiped at her tears. "I'll be damned if he ruins that. I know a better place. We'll stop at my house real quick. There's no way we're going out like this now." I feel a twinge of fear. I knew what was about to come out. We grab a taxi to her place, and an hour later, we're back out. Only this time, Alice is out for blood. Her blonde hair was softly pulled up into into a sleek bun with jewels hanging from it. Her outfit didn't leave much to imagine. She was wearing her f**k me dress. It was baby blue and skin tight with its corset top that pushed her already heaving breast's further up. The skirt fell just past her ass with a slit all the way up to her waist. All that on top of towering diamond platforms. There was no way she'd be going home alone tonight. Alice had dressed me similarly my copper hair had been brushed into a silky half up half down style that made me appear more pixie than before. My dress a skin tight green with a V that when I bent over came dangerously close to me spilling out. Mine was a bit longer than her clinging just the middle of my thighs with a slit that also stopped just at my waist.

We were a vision that I could be sure of. I could still see the redness in Alice's eyes that betrayed exactly why we were still going out. "We don't have to go," I say, giving her one more out. "No." She says solemnly. "We're going."
