Trouble
Cheated
Chapter 12
Harry
Precisely what I was thinking is that if I play the victim card, Marilynn is bound to feel pity and feel more attached to me then she already is. I need to get her to open up. I should’ve driven her to that stupid cabin and tempted her to tell me everything there, but then at the same time I couldn’t say no to Feli; we dated in high school, she knows half of what I’ve been through which is a great amount considering I don’t tell anything to anyone even the guys.
“Harry. Woo hoo!” Feli said waving her hand back and fourth in front of my face.
“I’m sorry, what?” I asked, confused.
“I said-“ she paused and took a sip of her tea.
“That maybe we can hang out tomor-“ she was cut off by the ringing of my cell phone.
I quickly checked my display screen only to see the devil herself was calling me.
Incoming Call Loosifer…
Damn she gave in sooner than I thought. That chick is pretty pathetic; it bugs me. Eventually I’m going to have to call her back but right now I’m busy with Felicity, maybe one day we can go out again. That is a maybe though; after all, my friend is flying in from America.
I press ignore. Eh she can wait.
“You were saying?”
“I was saying that maybe you and I can hang out tomorrow?”
“Like a date?” I asked.
“Well now that you mention it, I don’t see why not.” She said innocently.
“I guess but I have stuff to do during the day so how about later in the evening?”
“Sounds swell!” Swell? Who the fuck still says that? Whatever Feli can be weird like that.
Feli checked the time, stating she had to go and I don’t know what else the fuck but we agreed to meet at some restaurant around six.
My phone started ringing again and of course it was the devil. I guess I should pick up.

So Mary and I talked, she apologized, then I apologized and now I’m driving off to her awesome cabin. Sense the sarcasm.
As I’m driving my mind wanders off to when I was young and how I do go fishing with my father. We too use to stay at a cabin; it wasn’t his, he’d just use it with the permission of his friend. I wonder what my mum has been up to I really miss her. Plenty.
Thinking of my mum reminds me of how much she loved Felicity. She always supported Felicity and I’s relationship.
What would’ve happened if I never cheated on Fel? Would we have broke up anyway? Have we just ended up friends or stayed together? We were only sixteen when I committed that mistake; in my defense I was pretty young and had no experience. All I wanted was to be prepared when the time would come for Fel and I. She forgave me two years later and well we kept little contact.
I notice a small sign indicating that the nearest lake was about three miles ahead. Mary said her cabin was a mile radius from the lake so I have four miles yet to go.
I see the tall tress and the stars are much more noticeable. It’s all so beautiful; I can’t help but think about how a perfect getaway this would be. Lying under the trees, watching the stars dash across the night sky. Skinny-dipping in the lake with a love that is yours truly. I can be quite the romantic lad.
I make a small turn and notice a cabin off in the distance. Yup it’s that one, I know it. The closer I drive there the more nervous I become.
I head into the driveway and I can’t help but think about what it’d be like if my father hadn’t done what he did. No I shouldn’t think about that right now. I turn off my ignition and get out of my car well here goes nothing.
I walk up to her from door and wait anxiously. I have no fucken idea why I am even anxious in the first place. Damn how long does it take to open the goddamn door?
She better be doing something important cause I have low fucking patience. I spoke too soon when I saw Mary open the door with watery eyes.
Wait, she was crying?
“Come in.” she spoke softly leaving the door open enough to let me in. I walked inside closing the door before locking it. I follow Marilynn to the couch; I notice a closed photo album on the coffee table. Oh…she misses someone.
“Nice place you got here.” I commented.
“Thanks my dad built it.” She said in a low tone.
“So. We need to talk.” I spoke.
“So talk.”
“Let me start off by saying don’t leave my car on ever again. It wastes my battery or it could over heat and mess up my car.”
“Sorry it won’t happen again.”
“Not to mention-‘
I start off until her words are processed in my head. Wait she’s sorry?
“You’re sorry?’’ I ask.
“Yeah I guess I was just mad that you blew me off.’’
“But why?” I asked, scooting closer to her this time.
Marilynn moved closer as well becoming much more comfortable on the couch. She was stiffer when we first sat down. “It’s cause, well, everyone seems to blow me off.” She says with sadness in her eyes.
“I have an idea.” I said.
