Demi listened intently as Justin questioned why she could have thought such a thing of herself. She knew that she totally agreed with him, that the idea of being the other woman especially after being cheated on herself was abhorrent, but she just could not think of another reason for things to have happened when they did.
When she handed Justin the photo album, she watched his face intently, trying to gather how he felt about the picture from his first reaction. She watched as the colour drained out of his face in anticipation of what he was going to see on the page, she herself thought that she might be sick for a moment too, especially with his reaction. When the page was finally open, she looked at him in anticipation, trying to quieten her sobs so she was ready to take whatever might come her way.
When Justin pulled her into a tight embrace, she could not hold back the flood gates anymore and proceeded to crumble into his shoulder, sobbing hard. She had been so terrified to tell him about their future, unsure of how he would react. They had only just started to come to terms with their feelings with one another enough to get into a relationship, now to find out they had a future together…..well it was a lot.
“But you don’t understand” she sobbed hard, “You had your car accident in the April, on the way to propose to her and we know that you marry her, as Delphine confirmed it. I have a picture of us cuddled up together apparently on holiday together just 14 months after your accident. We may know how it hurts other people, and may not agree with it, but something like that must have happened for your marriage to begin and end, then you to move on that quickly”
