I heard someone groaning but i ignored it because i know its Aiden. Dealing with a drunk man is soooooo much work. My goodness .. Aiden was groaning most of the night then he wanted to try and get up and go to the kitchen , giving me a whole lot of stress worst of them all he peed on the floor, i was gonna clean it up but he fell asleep on it and my hand was not gonna deal with that.

That was only one night , he made this a habit. It became his everyday thing , he wont quit it either despite the hangovers. He would come home after 3 in the morning bumping into things and throwing them down or puking in the hall , which was sooo disguisting!! i almost murdered him that day i swear.

i was getting real tired of this.

He came home in the afternoon that day , Lord knows what possessed him to come home at this hour.

"Heyy Aiden"

He just grunted.

That right there had my blood boiling. He was moving really slow , his reactions were slow and not quick enough.

I stormed into his direction , i pushed at his shoulder" you need to stop this drinking and coming home late thing , this isn't you aid-" pausee i stared into his eyes "A-are you high ? mixed with alcohol?!" i screeched when he looked guilty.

I was beyond pissed.

When i saw the tears flowing from his eyes i was in shock but my heart tugged at him sobbing i really was gonna pat him on the back but you know at some point i started treating him like a baby.

My Baby.

Oh my gosh.

"I'm so sad" he said during sobs i took him to the coach and hugged him. At some point he fell asleep and his weight was too much to hold up , his weight pushed me flat on the couch. I didnt want to wake him up because he'll start sobbing all over again.

He adjusted himself and his head was now placed on my stomach. The lil curls on his forehead were tempting me to play with them and that exactly what i did. Within minutes i found myself playing with all of his hair and with that i myself fell asleep.

I know its weird but i have to take advantage of these moments because he would never be like this again.

I was currently out with Jeremy and Anje at a restaurant.

"Oh my goodness how could you say that scallop potato is better than lasagna ?!" anje yelled in jeremy face.

"Because it is !! who likes potato ?!"

"Everyone does!!"

"Noo soph doesnt , right soph ?!

Always , they could be discussing about something and i wont say nothing but yet they still put me in this !! never get in a discussion with them just leave it be ,stray away from the topic stay in the safe lane.

"Oh my goodness did you see that waiter with the curly hair?" i gushed pointing my head in his direction.

They both gave me flat looks.

"How about this weather ?"

Neutral faces was all i was receiving.

"I'm sorry , i prefer none " i lied obviously i love them both scallop potato and beef lasagna.

"Thats a lie!!" they yelled at the same time.

Oh my goodness.

5 minutes later the discussion was finally over.

"Soo you going to the gala in 2 days ?" anje asked .

"Gala ? what gala ?"

"The gala for all great companies , some appreciation thing " jeremy waved off

"I dont know i'll have to check with Aiden"

"Hmmm how is he by the way?" Anje asked

"You mean how's she doing" Jeremy said smirking

"Madame la here is taking advantage of her husband state of mind " jeremy said blurting out my little secret.

"Jeremy!" i slapped his arm

Anje's eyes were as wide as saucers.

She choked on her coke "What?!" she screeched

i looked away shyly. "I mean yeah "

"Well he seemed so vulnerable soo why not , i wont ever get this moment back .. when his cards are unfrozen he'll turn back to the same way he was." he stared at me for a full 5 seconds before bursting into a fit of laughter.

"Oh my gosshh" she giggled giving me a high five

"Sophia got to be the bests friend that i have " she continued laughing

"Well i mean duh who wouldn't do what i am currently doing " i shrugged and then my phone rung and i knew exactly who it was .

"Speaking of the devil , he's calling " he simmered down.

"Hello"

"Hey *sniffled* baby can you come home *sniffled* i need you "

-

-

Did he just call me baby ? i dont know why but my heart skipped a beat at this and i couldv'e felt all the butterflies in my stomach. i bit my lip to refrain from 'Aaaw-ing'

"Okay , i'm on my way"

i hung up. All of a sudden i felt giddy !!

I sqealed and got up my seat "sorry guys but i gottta go my husband is waiting for me !!" i dashed out as quickly as i could .

Why am i feeling soo giddy ?! is it possible that i'm actually catching feelings?! ...Nah impossible.

I made it some and it was getting dark.

I turned the knob and got in .... i almost got a heart attack . The house was dark , bottles were around like crazy and the house just looked like a mess.

"Oh my gosh ... oh my gosh , look what you did to the place!!!! Oh my goodness do you know how long it's gonna take to clean this up ?!" he didnt even look interested. "Oh wait , my bad i mean do you know how long its gonna take for YOU to clean this up ?! "

" Now how does it feel to be on the other side , in the maids position ? huh ?"

" your turning yourself into a monster!! more than you already were !! in these times you have to push yourself up -"

Slap.

I fell to the floor with a thud "Dont you ever say that again!" he roared.

I turn my head back to looked at him in shock , i felt the tears build up in my eyes.

"You hit me " i whispered , i see his eyes widen and he looked surprised himself. His eyes turned and looked at me apologetically.

"Soph-"

I got up and ran towards the bathroom i could hear him running after me "Sophia !!"

"Sophia wait!!"

I slammed the bathroom door and sat on the toilet and let all the tears flow.

"Sophia please open the door , i'm sorry" he croaked , he sounded as he was crying as well.

I didn't answer , i didn't have the voice to.

After all i did to help him and comfort him , he slaps me in return.

"Baby please listen to me i'm sorry, i was just- i wasn't thinking baby please " he whispered the last part

He sounded so sincere but i knew i couldn't give in so easily that's what made me cry even more.

"Soph please , I'm sorry"

"Let me just hold you" he pleaded

i shook my head and continued crying , crying always leads to sleeping.

Half an hour later i was almost there the energy was leaving my body.

The last thing i heard before i went sleep was "sophia if you dont open this door i'll break it down if i have to .... i need you please dont leave me like they did"

I was officially knocked out of that.

****

I woke up with sore eyes , Aiden was spooning me .

I couldn't stop thinking about how he had hit me.

I felt the tears build up but i blinked them back one time .

I tried unwrapping my myself from him. He moved a little bit but was still asleep .

When i finally succeed in getting off the bed , i packed some clothes quickly and rushed out of the house before he woke up , i saw the mail had arrived , it was the invitation to the gala , so i left it there for him to see and i dipped out of the house.

I took a cab and made my way straight to my best friends house.

I knew i had a tear stained face and a red nose . i paid the guy and stepped out of the cab. I went up to the door and knocked for the 1st time.

I could hear the footsteps coming down the stairs. The door finally opened. "Hey soph -" he cut himself off and began frowning "Hey whats wrong ?" he asked concerned "Jeremy " i breathe out before i pulled him into a hug.

"I got you soph" he whispered and kissed the side of my head while rubbing my hair and pulling me inside his house.
