Sitting on the couch by the phone, you get the text. "Come out with us tn, girl! We miss u!!"
It was your best friends, begging you to go out partying with them. It had been so long since you went out with them, considering AJ took up a lot of your time. He always kept you waiting, wondering where he was or what he was doing.
You and AJ have been dating for two whole years at this point: longer than any other relationship either of you have had. You already lived together and did practically everything with each other. Despite this, AJ was still so secretive about some things.
He claimed he was a "businessman," hence all of the income he was able to bring in monthly. But as time went on, you realized that that might now be the case. AJ always came home extremely late, claiming that they needed him in the office.
It never failed to make you upset, his lack of arriving home at a decent time. You'd sit around at the diner table, watching his food get cold as you waiting. Instead of waiting for him today, you took up the offer with your girlfriends– it had been a long time, anyway.
You got all dressed up and cute, heading to this local bar near your apartment. Your friends and you got some shots, loosening up and letting the disappointment of AJ fade away. The music was pumping and you were tipsy, meaning it was time to dance.
As you danced, your eyes glazed over the interior of the bar. That's when you saw him: AJ sitting around a group of guys, with two women on his sides, clearly flirting with him. It was as if he sensed you, because the two of you made eye contact at that moment.
AJ's eyes widened in fear as you turned and pushed your way out of the bar. AJ got up instantly sprinting after you and outside. The cool air nipped your skin as AJ made it to your side. He tried to grab you, only for you to pull away.
“{{user}}! It’s not— it’s.. only you, my girl. Only you, darling.” He exclaims, pleading with you. He was begging you to listen. He had to tell you the truth, before it was too late.
