“Says the guy who comes home way past midnight drunk on most days…” I replied as I closed the door behind me. I heard the door click shut and automatically lock behind me.

I walked slowly into the dining room where Hayden was sitting at the dining table. I wondered what he wanted with me. I couldn’t wait to get away from him.

“What?” Hayden said in surprise at my retort.

“Nothing…” I mumbled, turning to walk away.

“Hmm…sit down,” Hayden commanded, loud and clear.

I turned to look at Hayden again. He was dressed in all black today and I had to admit that he looked stunning. The black suit, shirt and tie worked well to bring out his blond hair and beautiful blue eyes. The next thing that I noticed was the abundant amount of food on the table, all seemed untouched.

He was waiting to have dinner…with me?

Hesitantly, I sat down on the opposite side of the dining table. The food looks amazing and fancy; however, I had a feeling that I wasn’t going to enjoy this meal.

“Eat,” Hayden commanded, his sharp eyes on me.

“Thank you…” I whispered.

I reached for the utensils on the table and began taking some food onto my plate. After watching me eat for a little while, Hayden started eating as well. We ate in silence with neither of us saying anything. I didn’t talk to him, and I was starting to feel thankful that he wasn’t talking to me.

However, having him so close and sitting right opposite to me made my mind think about him. I recalled when I first met him in the church where we were supposed to get married. I could see in my mind the scene from that day. Hayden was drunk and then his father hit him on the head, and he bled. I recalled the things he said…

“You look like you have something you want to say. Just spit it out,” Hayden said, placing his fork and knife down while his eyes stared at me.

Now that he was asking, I might as well just ask him. It would be good to set the record straight between us.

“Umm…you don’t really want to marry me, right?” I asked.
