We’re wrapped in each other’s arms; the only sound in the room is the ticking of a clock. We haven’t spoken a single word since we finished having sex. I think we’re both scared to break the silence. A phone rings, startling us both and he rolls over. “It’s my cell.” He scoots over to the edge of the bed and pulls his jeans up from the floor. The ringing continues and he reaches in his jean pocket, fishing the phone out. He squints, looking at the screen, but doesn’t answer it.

“You can answer it. I don’t mind.”

I pull the blanket up to my chest and sit up. He swipes his finger across the screen and puts it to his ear. “Hello.”

I can’t hear the other person but his body is suddenly rigid. “No, I never received a message. And no, I don’t think that’s a good idea.” His voice is off. I don’t know what, but something’s wrong. He drops his head and begins to massage his temple with his free hand.

“Why are you just now telling me this? I really don’t see how you’d ever think I’d agree with something like this.”

He stands up abruptly and I suddenly feel like an eavesdropper. Maybe I should get up and leave the room.

“This isn’t a good time. I’ll have to call you back tomorrow.”

He taps the end button and puts the phone on his bedside table.

“Is everything alright?”

“No, not really. It seems tonight is the night for exes to interject themselves into our lives.” He drops down on the edge of the bed and runs a hand through his disheveled hair.

“Oh, I’m sorry.”

An uncomfortable silence settles around us. The only thing I can think to do is offer to leave him alone to deal with whatever this is with his ex-wife.

“I can go so you can call her back.” I start to scoot out of the bed and he turns toward me.

“No, I don’t want you to go.” His expression is pained. The creases at the corner of his eyes are darker and his eyes are sad. “Stay the night with me.”

I grip the blanket at my chest and search his eyes for some sign that doing this isn’t the wrong choice. His beautiful lips curl up faintly at each corner and his eyes soften just a hint. “Please.”

I melt for him at that one word. “Okay.”

He crawls across the bed and pulls me into an embrace. Holding me tightly with one arm, his other hand intertwines in my hair and he breathes into the crook of my neck. “Thank you. I’m not yet ready to let you go.” He kisses the soft skin along my collarbone and I shiver.

“I deleted my profile on that website by the way. I just wanted you to know.”

I lean back away from him in response. Why would he do that? Why tell me? Does he want me to delete mine too? I have so many questions about how drastically everything has changed tonight but I don’t know how to ask without sounding awful about it.
