Julia opened the guest room door and signaled for Brent to come out to the lounge. "What are you doing here, Brent? The last thing you said to me was that you wanted a divorce."

Brent was looking at her with his infamous puppy dog eyes. Those eyes used to melt her and make her give in to anything but right now she just wanted to kill him. "Look, Jules baby. I'm sorry. I didn't mean it. You and I are good together. We work and one stupid argument shouldn't be reason to throw away three years."

Julia guffawed. "Yeah right! We're perfect for each other as long as you're fucking someone else and I'm sat around waiting for the magical day that you decide to show up and shower me with attention."

"Julia, that's not fair. We agreed that we were both free to pursue other people and our marriage was no barrier to that. If you are uncomfortable with that then maybe we need to consider our arrangements moving forward. Maybe we should consider being exclusive again."

Julia was so annoyed. "You don't get to do this Brent. You don't get to walk in when you please and suddenly decide what's best for our relationship. What a joke! Do you know how many days we've actually spent together in our supposed three year marriage? Eleven! And how many times have we had sex since the wedding? Four! What kind of a relationship is that, hmm? And why now? Did Harley kick you to the curb?"

Brent bristled. "Harley and I came to the natural conclusion of our encounter." He looked bitter. "Look, I know I've neglected you since we both went off and did our own films but I want to start afresh. I want to be the man you deserve. I miss us." He got closer to Julia and draped his arms around her waist. She didn't push him away. She'd loved this man for years and she was anything but immune to his charm. She began crying and he soothed her gently. "Shh, shh. I'm here now. Brenty’s going to make it all better."

"Brent please don't. I can't live like this anymore. You can't keep running in and out of my life and leaving me to pick up the pieces. I can't take it again."

"Julia darling. My sweet, gorgeous wife. Give me another chance. I promise. I'm done with that stupidity. I only want you." He kissed her gently and wiped her tears away. She bashed her fists against his chest in protest but she was exhausted. She needed to be held. She needed to feel loved so badly. He picked her up in his arms and carried her to the main bedroom. "I'm not going anywhere."
