We finished our dance and I gave Zack a long and tender kiss before we returned to our table.
“I’m just nipping to the gents, I won’t be long.”
As he left the room, I watched as Olivia got up and walked closely behind him. She glanced back at me and I quickly looked away. I couldn’t help myself as I got up and followed them.
Zack turned the corner to the toilets and she ran to catch him up. I sneaked along the wall listening for them talking.
“Zack, wait please,” she breathlessly whispered to him.
Her voice sounded so feminine and sexy.
“Olivia, what do you want? I am with Jennifer now and I am very happy. You have to stop calling me and texting me. It’s over and it has been for a very long time.”
“Do you love her like you once loved me, Zack?” she asked as she started to cry.
“I do. She is the best thing that has ever happened to me Olivia.”
I heard her sigh softly.
“Don’t say that, Zack. We had some amazing times together, didn’t we? You were the best lover I have ever had.”
Yeah, he gets that a lot!
“We did but that’s in the past now. I have moved on and I suggest you do too.”
“I can’t. I still love you so much it hurts.”
She started to really sob now. I couldn’t help but feel sorry for her as I knew what a man Zack was. Some women would kill to be with him, I had no doubt.
“Olivia, I’m sorry but I love someone else,” he told her gently.
“Kiss me one last time, Zack!”
I peeked around the wall and I couldn’t believe my eyes as she pulled him into her and kissed him passionately. He quickly responded to her kiss as his eyes closed. He didn’t move his hands from his trouser pockets. They looked really good together. She touched his neck wrapping her hands into his hair. One hand travelled down to his crotch and she went to touch him. Olivia's fingers pulled the zip of his trousers down and her hand pushed in.
What!!
Suddenly he seemed to come to his senses as he pulled away from her and shoved her off.
He looked confused and dazed.
She looked triumphant.
I must have looked murderous.
“No, Olivia! I shouldn’t have kissed you, it was wrong. How could I have been so stupid?’ he told her, gripping her wrists.
I was trying not to cry as I watched them. Blood rushed to my ears as pure jealousy engulfed me.
Then rage took over.
I wanted to kill him and her.
“Well, there is still something between us Zack and there always will be!” she said as she ran around the corner, crashing into me.
“I’m so sorry, Jennifer,” she cried as she sprinted back down the corridor.
“Jennifer!” Zack shouted.
Zack’s eyes widened as he wiped his mouth and tried to figure out quickly what I had seen. I stalked up to him and slapped him really hard across the face. It made me feel marginally better. He held his hand up to his red cheek, rubbing it.
“You prize bastard, Zack! How could you?” I shouted at him, not really caring who heard us.
I was so mad it was ridiculous.
Hot tears ran down my face.
“Jennifer, I’m so sorry. I made a big mistake! She felt familiar, that’s all but I pushed her away!”
He tried to grab me but I shoved him off. He looked crushed.
Good!
“Too right, you did. I am going to bed and I don’t really care if you come or not. Why don’t you go and fuck your ex?” I screamed at him and then I turned heel towards the lift.
He ran along behind me.
“Please, Jennifer, forgive me. I’m just a weak man. Anyhow, you can talk, what about John?”
“That’s a bit harsh, Zack!”
I knew he would bring that up.
“It’s exactly the same and you can’t come over all holier than thou! We both have history with other people, Jennifer!”
“Okay, fair enough, I deserved that but I am still mad and jealous as hell! She touched you! It made me feel sick!”
“Look, I love you not Olivia. You love me. Let’s forget about it and go and make love. Our bodies never ever get it wrong.”
The lift arrived and we got on. I tried to turn away from him but resistance was futile against him. A hot rush of familiar desire for him took over my willing body as I responded to his urgent kisses. I hit his rock hard biceps in frustration. He grabbed my arms to still me.
Bloody hell! Why couldn’t I be mad at him!
Why did I love him so much when he could hurt me like that?
Thoughts hurtled around my brain as he kissed me with lips that were on another woman a moment ago. I pushed him off again and scowled at him but he was clearly very aroused and he went to pull me back to him.
“No, Zack. Don’t, please,” I told him, holding his hands off me.
