He lay down in the comfortable bed. Aiden turned onto his side, facing the brunette. He wanted so bad to take the girl into his arms. At least one more time. He remembered when the young mother used to cling to him in her sleep. She had held onto him as if he was her life saver. In some since he had saved her from herself after Spencer left. When they had gotten together he never left her side. He was her support, her rock. He would wrap his arms around her lithe body and protect her from the outside world. He held onto the girl. Her need wasn’t the only thing that kept his arms around her. He held onto her because at the time she was his.

He remembers when they first had Ashden. They would lay in bed with the small swaddled baby in the middle of them. They would talk about anything that would hit their mind. Aiden had loved the way that she had smiled at him. It was even better when him and Glen would sit and talk. Glen would tell him hat the young mother had begun grinning when his name had been mentioned. It was the ‘honeymoon’ year for them. They had just gotten married and Ashden was born. He remembered that he was worse. Whenever he saw, smelt, or heard anything that had reminded him of the girl, a smile would curl onto his lips.

She didn’t move closer to him. She didn’t even seek comfort of his body heat. She just slept there, a small unnoticeable smile on the girl’s face. Aiden couldn’t live like this. He couldn’t keep going with the thought that his wife was in love with another woman. He couldn’t deny the girl of the happiness she had so unselfishly gave him over the years. He wanted to be selfish. He wanted to be so fucking selfish. He wanted to be the one to have the girl in the end. He wanted to be the one to have the happy ending. He couldn’t have this ending though, when he knew that she wasn’t happy.
