Edward
All the wayhome in the limo Julia chattered on and on about her ring, the celebrities she’d met and a slew of other superficial things. It was like she was on a “money high”. She had accompanied me to many social functions and fundraisers in the past but I guess going as my future wife, rather than as my employee, made a big enough difference to send her over the edge.
The marriage pretence was having a negative effect on me as well. I was beginning to have trouble differentiating between what was real with Julia and what was simply for show. The line between the two was starting to get uncomfortably smudged and blurry for me. Julia had certainly adapted to her new posh lifestyle quickly enough; maybe a little too quickly for my taste. But then maybe I was just being too hard on her. I grew up like this… She was experiencing these things for the first time.
We entered the house and headed for the bedroom. It was late and I was feeling pretty tired. No sooner had I slipped out of my jacket and loosened my tie, she was all over me. She seemed like she was still a little buzzed from the party. I had absolutely no idea how much she had to drink after I lost her in the crowd. I guessed it was quite a bit because she was super horny and aggressive. She pushed me down onto the bed, peeled off her new gown and threw herself on top of me. I felt her hand working my cock through my pants and I hardened immediately. Her kiss was long and forceful. She was as fucking hot and sexy as ever. Normally I would have been all over that action, but for some reason I just couldn’t really get into it. For the first time ever, I felt like I was just going through the motions with her.
“What’s the matter Edward? Is something wrong?”
“I’m sorry. I guess I’m just not totally in the mood right now…..”
“Well you’re big beautiful dick says you are!”
She put her soft moist lips around my cock and started sucking it and tickling the head with her tongue. Even that wasn’t enough to get me in the game.
“Edward I can’t believe you don’t feel like making love to me on the night of our wonderful engagement.”
“I’m sorry Julia. I can’t help it but things just don’t feel right.”
Julia rolled off me, got out of bed and pulled on her silk robe. She tugged and tied the sash around her waist in frustration and plopped down on a chair in the corner of the bedroom. The floor lamp next to her illuminated her face in a soft glow of light; Just enough for me to see that it was completely expressionless.
“I don’t understand Edward. What are you talking about? What doesn’t feel right to you?”
“Julia I keep thinking that maybe we’re making a mistake.”
In an instant her face went from totally blank to a combination of disbelief, sorrow and rage. I wasn’t sure which emotion was going to come out of her mouth first.
“A mistake? A mistake? I can’t believe what I’m hearing!”
Looks like disbelief won……
“First of all Edward, how dare you publicly propose to me in front all those people and then suddenly change your mind once we get home! How humiliating can you get, you fucking arrogant asshole?!”
Next up? Rage! I figured she probably meant that as a rhetorical question…..
“Why are you doing this Edward?” Julia began to sob, wiping away her tears with the sleeve of her robe
And finally sorrow…..
I felt like a jerk for making her cry but I had to get it out. I had to tell Julia the truth. I sat on the edge of the bed with my head buried in my hands for a minute while I gathered my thoughts.
“Julia ever since we started this whole thing……..this whole fucking plan……it’s been all about the money. You and I…….living together like a couple……again all about the money. You’re only doing all of this to help me keep my inheritance. It’s been making me feel sick deep in the pit of my stomach. I can’t stand it. This isn’t your fault. This is mine! I’m sitting here dumping lavish gifts on you. That necklace cost more than you’ve earned in all the time you’ve worked for me… Money isn’t fucking everything! And yet… It’s our entire relationship.”
“Edward I thought that’s what you wanted…….for me to act the part of your love interest and future wife. I’m playing the role you wanted me to play! I don’t know what else you want from me.”
“That’s just it Julia. I don’t want you to act the part. I’m in love with you Julia. I’m not acting. Not at all. You were the first and only woman who made me feel like my money didn’t matter. I loved that about you. But now that we’re getting married for the fucking inheritance, it feels like you’re just like all the others: In it for the dollars rather than the desire. It’s all about the car, the clothes, the jewelry, and the house. Oh yeah, and rubbing elbows with other people who have…….. money.”
“What did you say?”
“Weren’t you listening to anything I said? I’m not gonna repeat all that shit!”
“Edward? Did you just say you LOVE me?”
“Yes. I love you Julia! Didn’t you know that? I’ve loved you for so goddamned long it hurts!”
“No Edward, I didn’t know. We had a fling, sure, but you never even talked about being boyfriend and girlfriend. I thought you were just putting on an act for the inheritance money…”
“Julia, this pretend relationship is fucking with my head… I desperately want to make love to you, but not as my fake fiancée. I want to fuck you the way I did before any of this shit happened…”
