My love

Celine's POV:

We hadn't planned anything on that night but I wanted to surprise Rene with a dinner. Everybody knew I wasn't a great cook at this time but I wanted to have a romantic night with him. I knew he would come home a little bit later so I had time for cooking.

When it was 9 pm the food was ready and I set table beautifully. Everything was ready in the kitchen so I decided to change a dress on and put some makeup on. I put my red dress which showed my legs and I curled my hair. When I was ready I went back to downstairs. Everything was perfect for Rene so I had to just wait for him. It was almost 10 pm and I knew he would come any time soon. I put couple candles on the table and lighted them on. I walked into the living room and put music on. It wasn't special day for us but Rene was working really hard and he was stressed with all his work. I wanted to have a romantic night and take all his stress away. "Taller than the tallest tree is that's how it's got to feel. Deeper than the deep blue sea is that's how deep it goes - if its real" I sang with Frank and danced a little. I knew this night would be perfect, just two of us.

It was already 11 pm and I didn't know where Rene was. He didn't answered my calls or messages. Food was cold and I put out the candles and switched off the music. I knew Rene didn't know what I had planned but I still was hurt. I didn't bother to take off plates so I just left them on the table.

When I was about to go to the upstairs I heard how door opened and I turned to face the door. "Sorry, today went later than I expected" Rene said with a surprised look. I wanted him to look like this but earlier when food was hot and music was playing. "Yeah, whatever" I turned my back to him and took a step when I heard Rene's voice. "Is something happened?" I wanted to yell at him all my anger away and tell how I was waiting for him almost three hours to come home but I couldn't. "Nothing..." I answered and continued my way to upstairs. He took his jacket off and walked to the kitchen. I tried to hear what he was doing but I didn't hear anything. Finally I heard his steps and I started to walk stairs again. "Did you have a nice dinner with someone?" he joked and I turned to face him. That was the last thing what he should say right now. I was so done with his jokes and his incredibly beautiful smile. "Actually I planned nice and romantic night for me and my husband and surprise him but he didn't even bother to answer the damn phone!" I raised my voice a little and Rene looked surprised. "Honey, I had work to d-" "You always have! You don't do anything else than just work and work and work!" I cut him off and I came downstairs to stood right in front of him. "You're always working with me or not! We don't have any time together and if we do have sometime, we are working!" I let all the anger go away. "But I'm your manager for God sake!" Rene looked at me with disappointment in his eye. "But you are my fucking husband as well!" I pushed him and walked into the kitchen. Rene stayed there for a little time and then walked after me. "You know I have to do my job. What's the problem here? Do I work too much?" Rene asked while I put all plates back to the cupboard. "You work all the time. You're stressed all the time. We don't do anything together anymore" I looked him for a second and continued cleaning up the kitchen. "But you knew what it will be to be with your manager" Rene said calmly and leaned on the table. "But I didn't want this! I wanted to marry the man I love! Not only my manager who works his ass off! Who comes home late at night and go to sleep right away!" I was done. I couldn't be in the same room with him.

I put everything down from my hands and walked away from kitchen. "I'm sorry" Rene started but I didn't want to hear it anymore. "I don't care" I said and walked past him when he grabbed my arm and stopped me. I pulled my arm off of him and looked at his sad eyes. "Don't touch me. Don't talk to me. I'm done and I don't want to hear it" I walked to upstairs and I heard how Rene came after me. "What should I do? What the hell should I do then Celine?" Rene raised his voice and I turned around. His eyes were wet and it was too much for me. Tears filled my eyes even I tried to suck them back. I couldn't cry now. I wanted him to listen to me and understand what was wrong. "Listen" I said with a weak voice and I wiped my tears. "As long as I've known you I've admire how hard worker you are. I'm very thankful and I'm proud of you and I respect you and your work very much..." Rene came closer but I took a step back. I looked his eyes and saw how sorry he was. "But I need you! I need a man who I love more than anything else in this damn planet! Do you understand? I love you and I want to have time with you!" I yelled tears in my eyes. "I would fucking give all I am to you! Would you do the same for me? I want to share my life with you! Not only my career and success! I want you! I need you! I can't do this any longer so you have to decide Rene! You have to decide what do you want!" I totally collapsed and Rene ran to me. He took me in his arms and hold me close to his body. I pulled my face into his neck and cried. It was loud and ugly crying but it didn't matter at this time. I had said all the things to my husband what I had wanted to say so long time and only that mattered.

And there we were, on the floor. I was sobbing and Rene petting my back and kissing my forehead. "Nothing else, not even me, matter to me as much as you do" Rene whispered to my ear and it made me sobbing even more. "I didn't realize how much it bothered you but I will stop it. I promise I won't work as much as I'm working right now. And I promise I will be more with you" he cupped my face on his gentle hands and looked straight into my eyes. "I would and I will give all I am to you and I want to share my life with you too. I need you Celine" after those words he kissed my lips and wiped my tears. I didn't planned our night something like this but in the end it was worth it.
