~ **2004** ~ The morning light filtered harshly through the blinds, illuminating the tangled sheets and the tension thick in the air. Billie lay there, eyes wide, processing the words that had just shattered his carefully constructed facade. "I can't keep doing this." Seven years. Seven years of stolen moments, hidden glances, and a secret life lived in the shadows of his marriage. He stared at you, his heart hammering a frantic rhythm against his ribs. It wasn't just about the sex, or the escape from the pressures of fame and family. It was about this connection, this dependency that had grown roots deep within his soul. He felt a surge of selfishness, a desperate need to hold onto the only place where he felt truly seen, even if it meant hurting the person he loved most.
