They happened to be stranded and ended up at the same place. Was this a coincidence or was it planned? Neither knew but they didn't care. After being divorced for over 2 years, they just didn't care.
It was a rainy night and both had a long way to go but it was impossible to do so under such heavy rain.
A thunderstorm was brewing and they had missed the weather forecast for the day and now they were stuck!
"I can spare you a room for the night" An old lady with a warm smile said to him.
His honey brown eyes scanned the woman from head to toe. He was already having a shitty day and didn't want to transfer aggression.
"Thank you ma'am but the rain will soon stop and I'll be on my way". No sooner had he finished saying so, a loud thunder clap was heard and it gave everyone a fright causing a heavy downpour with storms.
"I offered because of your wife, she looks like she needs it".
There was confusion written all over his face, who was she calling his wife? The old lady mistook it for concern and gestured towards a blonde lady who had her arms wrapped around her with furrowed eyebrows.
He let out a small laugh filled with unbelief, then he scoffed, but before he could say anything a voice that was way too familiar was suddenly behind him.
"Thank you ma, we really appreciate it". The owner of the voice appeared before me and gave the old lady a polite bow and she replied with another warm smile.
"I'll go get the keys" and she left them.
"You're what now ??" Anger was clearly laced in his voice, who gave her the right!
But before he could say anymore the blonde head turned around and icy blue eyes met his honey brown eyes and every word he wanted to say disappeared into thin air. A silent message was passed across and he understood it so well that he shut his mouth and swallowed everything he wanted to say.
The old lady brought the key and gave it to the blonde lady, giving them directions on how to get to the room.
In front of the door...
"Why would you do that? You're not my wife anymore damnit! How are we supposed to sleep in the same room Ivy!
She turned around and slowly made her way towards him like a predator going towards her prey until his back hit the wall and there was no where else to run to. She leaned closer to him, her heels giving her an advantage in height, until their noses almost touched.
"Do you still have feelings for me?" Ivy said with an unrushed tone and a cold aura that matched her eyes and surrounded her. She was a cold beauty and that had attracted him to her. The way she carried herself and her voice which always sent shivers down his spine.
Her eyes was unblinking as she held his gaze while his heart skipped a beat without his consent. He knew the answer but... He knew what to say because he wasn't going to fall for her again!
"Hell no!"
"Good. Then stop acting like a bitch." She said and turned around to open the door leaving him dumbfounded.
