Lost between Two

fight and love

I followed Glad to the bedroom, my heart heavy with guilt and frustration. I knew that I had hurt him, and I didn't know how to make things right. As I walked into the room, I saw him sitting on the bed with his arms crossed, a scowl on his face.

"I can't believe you did this to me, Carmen," he said, his voice laced with anger. "You know how I feel about this, and yet you still went ahead and did it."

"I know, and I'm sorry," I said, my voice barely above a whisper. "I didn't mean to hurt you. I just got caught up in the moment, and I didn't know what to do."

Glad just shook his head, his eyes blazing with fury. "You always do this, Carmen. You always think about yourself and your own desires, without ever considering how your actions affect others. I'm tired of being the one who always has to pick up the pieces."

I felt tears welling up in my eyes, and I knew that I had to make things right between us. I took a step towards him, reaching out to touch his arm. "Please, Glad. I'm sorry. Let's talk about this."

But before I could say anything else, Glad pushed me away. "No, Carmen. I don't want to talk about it. I don't want to hear any excuses. Just go to bed. We'll deal with this in the morning."

I stood there for a moment, watching as Glad got up from the bed and started to walk towards the door. I knew that I had to do something, anything to make things right between us. And then an idea came to me.

As Glad reached for the doorknob, I moved quickly, blocking his way. "Please, Glad. Don't go."

He looked at me, his eyes softening slightly. "What do you want, Carmen?"

"I want you," I said, my voice low and husky. "I want to make things right between us. I want to show you how sorry I am."

Glad looked at me, his expression unreadable. And then, without a word, he reached out and pulled me into a passionate kiss. Our bodies pressed together, and I could feel the heat between us. For a moment, all of our anger and frustration melted away, and all that was left was desire.

Glad pushed me towards the bed, and I fell back onto the soft sheets. He climbed on top of me, his lips moving down my neck as he whispered my name. I moaned in pleasure, my hands reaching up to pull him closer.

For the next few hours, we lost ourselves in each other. We fought, we argued, and we made up in the most intimate way possible. And as we lay there, spent and satisfied, I knew that I had found my way back to Glad.

We still had a lot to talk about in the morning, but for now, we were together, and that was all that mattered.

The next morning, I woke up to the sound of birds chirping outside the window. For a moment, I felt disoriented, trying to remember where I was and what had happened. And then, as the memories flooded back, I felt a pang of guilt and regret.

Glad was lying next to me, his arm draped across my waist. He was still asleep, his breathing slow and steady. I watched him for a moment, admiring the peaceful expression on his face. Despite everything that had happened, I still loved him, and I knew that I needed to make things right between us.

I gently extricated myself from his embrace and got out of bed, wrapping a robe around myself. I went to the kitchen and started making coffee, trying to clear my head and come up with a plan.

As I waited for the coffee to brew, I thought about what had led me to this point. I had let my desire for attention and validation lead me down a path that had hurt the person I loved the most. It was a pattern that I had repeated throughout my life, and I knew that I needed to break it if I wanted to salvage my relationship with Glad.

When the coffee was ready, I poured myself a cup and took it to the living room. I sat down on the couch, feeling nervous and apprehensive. I knew that I needed to talk to Glad, but I didn't know how to begin.

A few minutes later, Glad walked into the room. He was still wearing his pajamas, his hair tousled from sleep. He looked at me, his expression guarded. "Good morning," he said, his voice neutral.

"Good morning," I said, trying to keep my voice steady. "Can we talk?"

Glad hesitated for a moment, and then nodded. "Sure."

I took a deep breath and launched into what I had to say. I apologized for my behavior, for not considering his feelings, and for putting our relationship at risk. I told him that I loved him and that I wanted to do whatever it takes to make things right between us.

Glad listened to me patiently, his expression softening as I spoke. When I was finished, he took my hand and gave it a gentle squeeze. "I appreciate what you're saying, Carmen," he said. "But this can't be a one-time thing. You need to show me, through your actions, that you're committed to making this work."

I nodded, feeling grateful for his understanding. "I know. And I will. I'll do whatever it takes to make things right between us."

We spent the rest of the day talking, laughing, and just being together. It was a start, a small step towards rebuilding our relationship. I knew that it wouldn't be easy, that there would be more fights and more challenges in the days to come. But I was determined to face them, together with Glad, and to make sure that I never lost sight of what was truly important.
