I bit my bottom lip as tears pricked my eyes, trying to escape and make the journey down my flushed cheeks. "You can't do this anymore." I repeated his words as I shook my head, looking down at the floor. I wasn't able to look into his eyes.

"I want a divorce." His voice was soft but firm. After a moment of silence, I was able to look up at him; captivated by the brown eyes that made me fall in love with him all those years ago.

Dimitri and I were highschool sweethearts. We had met our sophomore year when I transferred to his school, and he helped me around my first day. I fell for him instantly.

Whether I wanted to admit it or not, I knew this day was coming. Late nights at the office. Midnight phone calls. Sleeping in separate rooms. He always smelled of lavender.

"Do you remember our wedding night?"

Pain flared in his eyes as I asked the question, "Rose don't-"

I cut him off, "Do you remember how you carried me in your arms across the threshold of the hotel room door?" Slowly he nodded, and I continued on, "I'll sign the papers if every morning for a month, you carry me from our bedroom to the front door."

His eyes searched my tear stained face and finally he nodded; agreeing to my strange request.
