Re: American Angel in London
Anne's POV
Lizzy went to her room, playing while I sat down with Orlando.
"So, you said we can't work this out. So what do we do? What about Lizzy?" Orlando asked.
"Oh, no. Don't you dare put this on me. I go away for a weekend and come home to find my boyfriend's co-stars wife in our bed! Don't you dare guilt me into staying for Lizzy. Did our daughter even cross your mind when you had your tounge stuck down Christine's throat?" I spat, getting up. "Here's what's going to happen. Lizzy and i are going back home. I'll call you in the morning and we'll work something out."
"Work something out?" He said, looking up at me.
"With Lizzy." Suddenly the thought of Lizzy being taken away from me entered my mind.
"Orlando.." I said, my voice shaking.
He looked up, shaking his head. "I know what you're thinking. You know me Anne. I woudln't do that."
"You're wrong. I don't know you at all. I thought I did but-"
"I'd never use our daughter as an altumatum."
I nodded. "So,I'll call you tommorow."
Orlando's POV
Say something you bloody idiot. Something..anything to make her stay. Anything that would keep her from taking your daughter, and walking out the door. But my body wasn't cooperating with my mind. I simply nodded sadly.
"Have a safe flight."
"I should get my things." She said, moving towards our bedroom, but stopping suddenly. I dared to hope, until I realized why she'd stopped. Christine was still in the bedroom.
"Orlado do you think maybe you could..."
"Yes of course. Sorry." I mumbled, getting up. Anne moved, going into Lizzy's room.

Re: American Angel in London
Anne's POV
I gathered Lizzie's things, and started to walk through the house, when I felt my leg be pushed, and Lizzie run ahead of me. I looked up to see why she was running.
"Cwistine!" She squealed, running into Christine's arms. I sat down our bags, and glared over at Orlando. He walked over to me, looking down at the ground.
"Sorry, she was on her way out."
"Yeah, I can see that." I said with another death glare. I pushed past him, and walked over.
"Give me my daughter."
"Anne..she.."
"I know. Give me my daughter." I said, reaching for her.
"Anne, I'm so sorry. Believe me we never meant-"
"For me to find out? Well I did. Orlando's diffrent. I love him, and he's a man. It's almost expected at some point. But you..you did this to another woman. You split Lizzie's family up. So don't you dare come to me for forgiveness. Now give me my daughter." I hissed. She reached forward, and Lizzie wrapped her arms around my neck, crumpling into my arms.
"Mommy mad?" She said, her bottom lip sticking out.
"Not at you baby. Come on, let's get ready. Wanna go see grandma?" I said, walking into my bedroom, without another glance to Orlando or Christine. I packed my things, and walked back out. By that time, Christine was gone, and Orlando was sitting on the couch, with his head in my hands.
"Go get your shoes baby." I told Lizzie, and walked over, sitting beside him, brushing a strand of stray hair from his face.
"Is this really over?" He croaked.
I nodded. "It has to be dosen't it?"
He looked up at me. "No Anne. We can work this out. If you can forgive me.."
"I can't do that right now."
"Anne, you once said I could cut off your finger and you'd still forgive me."
"No, I said love you. Not forgive. And this is diffrent."
"Please Anne....tell me how to fix this."
"You don't. You let me go. You let me walk out that door, and the only thing we focus on is making this as easy as possible for Lizzie."
Finally, I saw him nod, and Lizzie ran back in with her shoes. I forced a brave smile, and looked over to notice Orlando was doing the same. I pulled Lizzie into my lap, and put her shoes on.
"You know, when I first saw Lizzie, when I first saw Elizabeth...after the shock..I started thinking about evreything I'd miss because I had a kid. My friends...partying..evreything I was used to. It was horrible...but that's what I was thinking about. Then, after I took her home, I realized it didn't matter. She made up for evreything I'd miss." Orlando said, reaching down to touch his daughter's hair.
I offered a soft smile. "You're a good dad."
He nodded. "Anne, don't go. I'm not trying to guilt you into staying with me...just don't leave New Zeland. It's going to kill me to loose you but if I loose Lizzie too....I'm just so used to seeing her evreyday."
"I have to get out of here Orlando. For atleast a few days. Lizzie can stay with you."
"No, she needs to be with you. I just...I'll miss her."
Oh great...now's the time to give me the guilt trip. And Lizzie's puppy dog eyes are pleading with me...although she has no idea what's going on. I sighed. "Okay..I'll take Lizzie back with me for a few days. You have a weeklong break starting Friday, and you were going to London right?"
He nodded. "Yeah, why?"
"I'll meet you in London, and get the rest of my things that we stored at your mom's while I'm there. You can have Lizzie, and we'll figure out some kind of custody agreement then, okay?"
"Alright. That sounds okay."
"Good. I guess I'll...be going then."
"I'll drive you."
"No, it's okay. I called a cab while I was packing."
"Okay then..." He leaned down, and kissed Lizzie's head.
"Daddy loves you kiddo." he smiled. "For the record, I love you too Anne."
Enough with the guilt trip already!
I nodded. "I know Orlando. I love you too. I just can't-"
"I know. Have a safe flight Anne."
"Thank you." I said, standing up with my bags, and taking Lizzie's hand. I took one last look back at Orlando, then walked out the door, and into the waiting cab.

Re: American Angel in London
Absence makes the heart grow fonder, so maybe this separation will work to get them back together.

Re: American Angel in London
Orlando's POV
There it goes. My entire life just walked out the door, thanks to my stupid, stupid mistake. I sighed, and stood up, opening the door, and looked out, seeing her climb into the cab. I knew Anne. She cried at evreything from a sad puppy to a romance movie. But tonight, though I could see them brimming her baby blue eyes, she hadn't dared shed even one tear.But as she looked back one last time, even from a distance, I could see tears falling down her cheek. My first instinct was to run to her...to cradle her in my arms, and kick who'sever arse had made her cry. But then...I realized it was me. My eyes locked with hers for just a moment before she ducked into the cab, and it pulled away from the curb.
Anne's POV
As Orlando's eyes locked with mine, I quickly wiped away the streaming tears. I'd tried so hard not to cry in front of him. As if crying showed that I was a victim of some kind. I'd convinced myself I was trying to show him I didn't care, when the truth was, I was only trying to make him feel less guilty.
As the cab pulled away, I snuggled up to Lizzie, burrying my face in her hair. As if she understood perfectly, she turned, wrapping her arms around my neck.
We caught the plane, and headed back to Tenessee. I caught a cab to my house, using the hide-a-key, and putting Lizzie in my bed. I left my parents a note, and grabbed the car keys. I knew where I had to go. Unethical as it was, I needed him. Reguardless of our past, and the circumstances, he was my best friend.
I kissed Lizzie's head, and headed out, driving across town to his place. I parked, and knocked on the door. I heard shuffling, then the light turned on, and he opened the door.
"Anne? I thought you left? Do you know it's 3am?" He said, leaning against the door, a sleepy smile on his face.
"I know. Sorry. I just..I need someone to talk to."
"Okay, come on in." He said, moving aside to let me in, then shutting the door behind me. "Is evreything okay?" He asked, taking my hand, and leading me to the couch.
"N-not really."
"What is it Anne?" He asked.
"Orlando and I...we broke up."
"What? Why? Are you sure."
I nodded. "Yeah, pretty sure." I said sarcastically.
"How?"
"Hmm, finding him in bed with another woman kind of defines 'it's over'. Don't you think?"
"Oh God Anne...I'm so sorry. You found them?"
I nodded.
"Did you give him a chance to explain?"
"Yes, I did. But what is there to explain really?"
"Anne, alot of things could have happenned. Orlando loves you and-"
"Of all the people! I thought atleast you would be on my side!"
"I am on your side Anne. But things happen. I don't want to see you throw away the love of your life over something like this."
"Something like this?! What's that supposed to mean?"
"Nothing Anne." he sighed. "Okay, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make you think I wasn't on your side. I'm completley on your side."
"Thank you" I sighed, leaning back against me. He wrapped his arms around me in a comfortable hug.
"I have an extra room if you wanna stay the night." he offered.
"No, Lizzie's at my parent's, and I took their car. I have to get home. I just..I just needed a friend."
"That's what I'm here for you." he smiled.
