18 The Confrontation

KYLE'S POV

"It seems like I'm interrupting something?" JP skipped all formalities. He brushed past me and started to make his way to Maya's room I suppose.

"Maya isn't dressed so I don't think you should go up there unannounced," I grabbed his arm.

"It's nothing I haven't seen before, I can assure"JP scoffed as he walked past me, "I've probably had the pleasure more times than you."

I pulled him back and threw a punch at him which sent him sprawling across the room.

"Don't ever you ever speak about her like that!" I pointed my finger at him.

I clenched my jaw and counted to ten backwards. I was not a violent guy other wise I would have done serious damage to his face.I couldn't understand what Amaya saw in this douche. More importantly what was he doing here?

Amaya walkedinto theroom tightening the sash around her robe. It was rather short and it showed off her long shapely legs.She still looked upset but not more than I was right at this moment.

"Hey! What's going on here? JP what are you doing here?" She looked at both of us as she folded her arms against her chest, accentuating her ample cleavage. Focus Kyle.

JP picked himself up and dusted his suit, his eyes were taking here in from head to toe. I felt my anger building up again so I excused myself from the room before I did something I would regret.I sat at the edge of the bed and left the bedroom door slightly open so that I could hear the discussion between Amaya and JP.I didn't want to eavesdrop but I had to.I had to know what was going on, for my own sanity. I was already insecure whenever it came to JP and I thought Maya and I were in a good place. But there was no telling with her.

"I can't believe that you slept with him but you have kept me at arms length for over twoyears! You've only known him for a couple of months and you have already jumped into bed with him?! What is it that he has that I don't have Maya? Please make me understand??" JP was having an outburst.

I was kind of glad to hear he didn't sleep with Maya. Relieved actually. Maybe Maya and I had something special after all. We would have gone all the way if I hadn't stopped her..twice.

"You shouldn't concern yourself too much about who I choose to sleep with. Don't make it your business!" Maya shot back.

"But it should Maya! We are in a relationship aren't we?" He retorted.

"No JP, we had an agreement. No strings.No commitment. Period," Maya said flatly. "You are not supposed to be here. You can't come here unannounced and start causing a scene. You don't get to do that, understand?"

"We have been together for a long time now. I thought you had changed your mind about all that nonsense! Now thisKyle comes along and you've changed. We were happy ma petite amie ," JP was sounding desperate now. I almost fell sorry for the guy.

"Nothing has changed JP. I think it's time for you to move on and find someone else that is ready to commit to you. I can't give you what you want," Maya responded.

Well this seems like deja vu.. It made me wonder what my chances were if she still wasn't ready for commitment. We would have to talk about this once that douche left.

"I thought you were considering my proposal? How did you decide so quickly ma cherie amou?" he asked.

Proposal? Did he propose to Maya? Why didn't she say anything to me?

"JP please let's not argue about this. I'm not going to change my mind and I'm not going to accept your proposal okay?" she said gently like she was speaking to a child.

"It's him isn't it? You love him? I know you do-I can tell. You're different somehow." He sighed audibly.

Dare I believe that Maya was in love with me? That would be a dream come true. Maya didn't answer but he continued talking.

"I thought we were getting along tonight at dinner and then when we kissed in the limo-I thought you still felt the same way about me. I thought we were on the same page," he said dejectedly.

They kissed?! My heart sank down to the pits of my stomach and exploded into a thousand pieces.I stood up and started walking around the room trying to block out what I just heard. No-it can't be true. I leaned against the wall trying to steady my breathing.I felt like I was drowning. Sinking. It felt like someone ripped out my heart with a pair of tweezers and stomped on it afterwards.. How could she? Why??After everything? I gave her my heart and she turned it into chop liver yet again.

I needed to get out of here. I couldn't stay. Not after what JP just revealed.My heart was aching and my feeling were spiraling. I picked up my t-shirt from the floor and put it over my head. I had flash backs about what happened just a few minutes ago, as I sat on her bed and put my shoes on. But it probably didn't mean anything to her if she kissed me and another man in the same night. . With those same bewitching lips.

Amaya's POV

"JP I'm going to need you to leave," I said holding open the door for him. He hesitated.

"Now," I emphasized.

"Of cos," he said as he straightened his jacket. " I know you will come back to me. I'll be waiting." He tried to kiss me on his way out and I turned away.

I closed the door and leaned against it.What was I going to say to Kyle. I'm positive he heard everything JP said. While I was going over everything in my head I saw Kyle making his way to the door. He had dressed up and grabbed his car keys from the side table. He just stood there looking at me like a wounded animal. He was in anguish. Totally shattered.

"Can we talk? Please?" I pleaded.

He just shrugged his shoulders and walked into the sitting room and sat on the couch. I hurt him. Again. Why did I have to be so confused?

I sat cautiously next to him and tried to hold his hand but he pulled it away.He didn't want to look at me so I knelt in front of him and sat back on my heels, willing him to look at me. He lifted his hand to wipe his eyes and that's when I noticed the tears.

Gosh. I done did it this time. I'd never had a guy cry for me before so I didn't know how to handle such a situation. But it hurt to see him like this and even worse, it was me that did this. I should try and fix it but how? I found myself crying as well and I didn't try to hide it. So we both just sat there and silently shed our tears.

Then Kyle got up and walked out of my life.Probably forever.
