Vengeful Love

Here is a story featuring the Backstreet Boys. This was written years ago close to the time where I was new to writing. Positive feedback would be appreciated thank you. Enjoy

This story will be short and the chapters may be short as well.

Nick walked into the ballroom with Brian, Leighanne, Kevin, Kristin, Howie, Leigh, AJ, and Rachel. They were attending a charity event where single guys would bid on single girls for a date for one night. The guys were intent on making Nick bid on one of the girls. Nick was married to a woman named Hayley. They aren’t officially divorced since she disappeared before any papers could be filed.

“Guys, this is not a good idea, no one is going to go out with me, I’m still married,” Nick said.

“Yeah, but your wife has disappeared, remember,” Brian said. Nick sighed.

“Still, I’m married,” Nick said.

“It’s just for one night and it’s a good cause,” Brian said.

“I know, okay,” Nick said. They mingled with the crowd. Nick stood there looking around. He heard applause and someone speaking and turned towards the stage and his eyes widened as he saw his wife, Hayley, standing there smiling.

“Thank you all for coming tonight to help benefit the children’s hospital, now there are some ladies up for bid for a date for one night only, and of course, I’m the first one up for bid,” Hayley said. The auction began.

“One thousand dollars going once, going twice,” the auctioneer said.

“One hundred thousand dollars,” Nick called out. He came up to the front of the crowd and Hayley froze as she stared at him. The auctioneer looked around the room.

“Sold to the gentlemen for one hundred thousand dollars,” he said. He held out his hand and she took it and he pulled her to another room and closed the door and stood there glaring at her.

“I suppose you planned this event,” Nick said.

“Yes,” Hayley said quietly.

“Didn’t expect to see me, did you,” Nick said.

“I didn’t know you guys were coming,” Hayley said quietly.

“I paid one hundred thousand dollars to go on a date with my wife, how funny is that,” Nick said.

“Nick,” Hayley said.

“I don’t want to hear any excuses, Hayley, I want the truth, why did you leave me?” Nick asked.

“I came home one night and saw Willa in your bed,” Hayley said.

“Was I there?” Nick asked.

“No, you were on tour,” Hayley said.

“Exactly, you played her game, she has been trying to get me back for a long time, but I wouldn’t take her back because of you, I was married to you, for better for worse, til death do us part, remember, but you hightailed it out of my life as soon as you got the chance, before you heard my side of the story,” Nick said. Hayley turned away.

“It doesn’t matter anymore, it was five years ago, I’ve moved on,” Hayley said.

“So that’s it, huh, nothing else matters, like our marriage, I’d be damned if I even give you a divorce,” Nick said.

“It’s for the best,” Hayley said.

“Why, is there another guy?” Nick asked.

“No,” Hayley said.

“Hayley, why did you leave like that, you knew I would never cheat on you, remember, it happened before, you found someone in our bed and thought I cheated, you confronted me and the guys and found out it wasn’t true, you didn’t run then but you find Willa in our bed and you take off, what was the difference, huh,” Nick said.

“I thought it really happened that time, because it was Willa in bed this time, I thought she came to get you back and thought she would just wait on the bed for you,” Hayley said.

“I told you a hundred times that I never wanted to see Willa ever again,” Nick said.

“It doesn’t matter now, it’s over with, I’ve moved on,” Hayley said.

“So you don’t love me anymore, is that it,” Nick said.

“I will go to my grave loving you,” Hayley said. Nick came up behind her.

“Why can’t we work this out, we are married, Hayley, I haven’t been with anyone else, I couldn’t, the guys have been trying to set me up and get me to move on, but I can’t, I can’t stop loving you or wanting you, you were my wife, I vowed on our wedding day to always be faithful to you and love you, and that’s what I’ve done, but the first chance you get, you leave,” Nick said. Hayley covered her face.

“I’m sorry, okay, I can’t!” Hayley said. She ran from the room. Nick stood there.
