Justin hugged him and emitted a soft laugh. “You’re so cute when you’re mad. I love you.”

Kenny nuzzled his face in the crook of Justin’s neck. Kenny’s cheeks flushed and he felt foolish, but he didn’t care. He waited too long to find someone like Justin, and he wasn’t about to risk losing him.

Chapter Forty-One:

Peter was late again. Very late. And he didn’t return any of Heather’s calls. She wondered if he was cheating on her, or if maybe something happened to him. She shook her head. He was probably just out having drinks after work again. It’s a new habit that he acquired in the last few weeks. She hated it, because she didn’t like Peter when he was drunk. She gave up trying to call him and waited for him at the front window with the lights off. The second his car pulled into the driveway, she ran into the living room and sat in front of the TV. She swore she wasn’t going to bombard him with questions, but as soon as he staggered through the front door, she jumped off of the couch. “Why are you home so late? Where were you?”

“I went out for a few drinks after work.” Peter’s speech was slurred from too much alcohol.

“Why didn’t you answer your phone or call me? I’ve been calling you all night.”

“It’s too loud in the bar to hear the phone.” He swayed back and forth as he stared at her for a few seconds. “What’s the matter? I can’t go out? You don’t have to know where I am every fuckin’ minute.”

“It’s just common courtesy to call when you’re going to be this late, Peter. It’s after midnight.”

He sneered his lip at her. “I’m a grown man. I can come and go as I please.”

He was being argumentative. She knew it was from the alcohol, but she wasn’t about to let him bully her. She had a temper too, and she lashed back at him. “I’m your wife. If you’re gonna be five hours late, you call me to let me know you’re OK.”

“Leave me the fuck alone.”

Peter turned his back to her and started up the stairs. She was tired of being dismissed. She wanted to finish a fight, for once. She wanted to talk things out like normal adults. She grabbed him by the arm so he wouldn’t leave the room.

“Get the fuck off of me!” He overreacted to her touch and pushed her away.

“Don’t fuckin’ push me!”

“Then get the fuck away from me.”

His words were hurtful and disrespectful. She stomped her foot and slapped her thigh. “Why are you acting like this?”

“Just stay away from me. I’m not in the mood for your bullshit.”

He made another attempt to go upstairs and again she grabbed his arm. He turned abruptly, and slapped her across the face with an open hand. She stumbled, but remained on her feet. She was shocked. Stunned. He never hit her before. But her shock quickly turned to anger, and she slapped him back.
