Picking up the pieces

"What the fuck was that!?" Jason asks perhaps a bit too harshly as Lily recoils, "I-I'm sorry, it's just you've been so busy with work. I was horny and ****" Lily explains, outside the door Ray hears this as he dresses and smirks as he makes a mental note to put just a little more on Jasons plate. "I know baby but him?" Jason asks Lily avoids his gaze, "he's an asshole" Jason continues venting his true feelings about Ray, "I know... He was so charming at first" Lily says lamenting her decision. This does soften Jasons anger, in a sense he got what he wanted, he wanted his wife to realise Ray was an asshole and he got that. Jason just wished it didn't require his wife getting fucked to do so.

"I think I should sleep in the guest room" Jason sighs he just couldn't share a bed with his wife right now, his emotions too raw. "No no I'll take the guest room" Lily insists, feeling guilty about her actions, Lily goes to get off the table but Jason stops her. "Hold on there's glass on the floor here, let me sweep this up first" he say looking at his wife's bare feet, he still loved her and didn't want her to step on any glass from the coffee jar. Jason grabs and dustpan and brush and begins sweeping up the shards and spilt coffee grounds, Lily watches with adoration she loved this man and her heart hurt that she'd upset him. While sweeping Jason takes a few glimpses at his wife "god she's beautiful" he thinks to himself as he takes in her flushed expression and naked body. Jason tries to avoid looking at the cream oozing cooch but his eyes keep being drawn back to it, he tries to put what just happened to the back of his mind but he can't.

Once the debris is swept up Lily sheepishly goes off for a shower, while she showers he grapples with his feelings about what the fuck just happened. He just watched the man he hates most fuck his wife and even though it filled him with rage, there was something deep inside of him that liked it. Some dormant part of him had awoken and he was ashamed to admit it, and he truly knew he couldn't deny it Ray had seen his stained pants and while Lily had yet to comment on it she surely did too. "This is so fucked up" Jason admits to himself burying his face in his hands.

As the hot water cascades over Lily she is also grappling with her feelings, she felt guilty and ashamed that she had let her husbands boss talk her into cheating. She felt even more guilty because it was the best sex she'd ever had, she cursed herself for being so foolish. "Jason came to it" Lily says to herself her voice barely audible over the hiss of the shower, "did he enjoy it?" Lily didn't want to entertain the idea because her husband had seemed so angry but what if he was lashing out to compensate for the fact that he enjoyed it. Lily knew her husband well and that wouldn't be something beyond the pale for Jason. "This is so fucked up" Lily admits turning off the shower.

The couple get ready for bed avoiding each other for the most part, both of them being too embarrassed to address the elephant in the room. As Lily gathers her things to head to the guest room she asks Jason "so what happens now?" Jason sighs heavily rubbing the bridge of his nose "I don't know... I think we should get some sleep and tomorrow morning we can talk about this properly" Lily nods in agreement looking at her husband with concern. "I'm sorry" Lily admits before tentatively adding "I love you", Lily didn't expect Jason to say it back but she wanted to let him know regardless. "I love you too" Jason replies, as emotional as he was he couldn't deny he still loved his wife even if their relationship was now more complicated.
