Chapter 10 Michael's P.o.v It's been hours... where the hell is she?She just left, she just walked out.It doesn't make sense.I called everyone and they haven't seen her.Where the hell could she have gone.Should I call Leah again?... Where could she be she's never done anything like this before.I don't know what to do,what if something happened to her.I dial the phone and Leah picks up. She says she still hasn't heard from her, that maybe I should call the police..That's when I hear the door open and my heart races.I see my wife standing there with a blank look on her face and completely disheveled."Jesus Kat where the hell have you been?" She just stares off into the distance and now she's starting to scare me."Katrina answer me?"What the is wrong with her? She slowly walks towards the couch like she's on autopilot but doesn't say a word.I sit at the edge of the table and take her by the hand."Honey, are you alright? Are you hurt?"Still she doesn't say anything.It's like she's frozen or in shock I don't know what else to do. I'm beginning to lose my patience with my comatose wife.I can feel my anger and concern rise.Do I slap her?.I firmly grab her face forcing her to look at me and the look of fear stirs something in me.The thought of her fearing me as I stand over her begins to make me hard and I remember I need to control myself.I need to figure out what is wrong with her."Katrina answer me".Her eyes widen and I can see anger written all over her face. I see her struggling to surpress it.I know what it looks like. I've never seen her like this before. She takes a deep breath and closes her eyes as if she's struggling to breathe."I'm fine I just wasn't feeling well so I went to the doctor. Then I spent the day with Leah." She spent the day with Leah?I know she's lying to me, she's never lied before.Why the f**k is she lying to me now.What the hell is this b***h hiding from me. I slowly let go of her face,I have to keep my cool if I want her to be honest.Or maybe I'll beat the truth out of her.No what am I saying she's my wife I can't."Are you sure that's all Kat?"She slowly nods and I watch her stand up and make her way upstairs.I hear the door close and nothing else.Where the hell was she all day?I don't know what kind of games she's playing but I'm gonna find out. Kat's P.o.v I make my way upstairs and shut the door behind me praying that he doesn't follow.But I know soon he'll be here with his arms around me.And the thought alone makes me feel ill.I look out the window knowing that he's there sleeping and it puts me at ease.I don't bother getting undressed and just get under the covers.I can still smell David on me. Flashes of him make me bite my lip. I pull my body into itself and for a moment I feel safe.That's until I hear the door open. The footsteps get closer and closer and my heart begins to race.I lay still and pretend to be asleep praying that I can play pretend as well as he does.I feel the bed dip and my heart sinks.I feel his warmth next to me, he pulls me close and I tense up. He wraps his arms around me and I go completely rigid at his touch.I used to crave his hands on me, his touch used to give me comfort now they make me feel nothing but disgust and fear."Kat I was so scared when I didn't know where you went.I was out of my mind.I love you please don't scare me like that again.I couldn't live if something happened to you."He kisses the nape of my neck and caresses my hair."I know you're tired now, sleep baby and we can talk about it in the morning." He holds onto me and I feel as if I'm sinking deep into a pit that I can't crawl out of.If he wants to pretend.... let's play pretend.I turn over and looking into his eyes is hard to do right now.I gently touch his stubbled cheek with my hand."Michael...I'm sorry I scared you it wont happen again.But you have nothing to worry about."I kiss him and bite down on my inner cheek to keep from screaming.He smiles but I know now it's fake.... how many of his smiles, his words, his kisses have been apart of him playing house.He begins to drift off to sleep with a relaxed look on his face...he wants to play pretend...? Let's play...
