| AJ found Howie at the bar."Hey man! What's up?"Howie greeted as AJ approached. "You can't do this tonight." "Can't do what?" "Come on D. Do you love her?" "Yeah but what does "Do you trust her?"AJ interrupted. "Yes but I don't "How can you do this to her then? Do you think she would really cheat on you after going through all the hell she did just to get where you two are now?" "No but "Then don't do it. She loves you. She'd never do anything to hurt you." "What's come over you?" "I gained a conscience. If you love her as much as you say you do then gain one but if you insist on continuing with your little charade find somebody else to play your warped little game. I refuse to do it anymore. It's not fair to Liz and now that I think about it, I'm getting a little sick of it." "Nick got to you didn't he?" "It doesn't matter. If you don't love her I'm sure Nick will be happy to replace you all too quickly." "What are you talking about?" "They were in a relationship for two months Howie. If you think nothing happened between them in that time then you're only kidding yourself." "That's just being spiteful." "Spiteful or not, you've got a beautiful woman deeply in love with you and it would crush her to pieces if she knew this side of you. Don't do it. You'll only be hurting yourself in the end." He knew AJ was right. It was not fair to bring Tamara and all her innocence into his depraved little world but she was his girlfriend now. It was gonna have to be dealt with sooner or later. For tonight though, he let it rest. He needed her stability to keep the honest, sweet image up. If anybody really knew what he did behind closed doors. It wasn't horrific by any means. It was just......well, it was just a part of him she wouldn't understand yet. |
