The Separation
Mayumi Urazawa

A/N: Seinfeld and I Don’t Wanna Close My Eyes do not belong to me. I am merely writing this because… well, I wanted to get it all out of my system. This is my first Seinfeld fanfic, and after much research, I finally had the chance to write it. This is the first of the three I’m going to write. This one has no sequel but the other two are connected. Again, Seinfeld belongs to Larry David, Jerry Seinfeld, and a bunch of other guys and I Don’t Wanna Close My Eyes belongs to Aerosmith. However, I’m gonna use a slower version of this song.

Main Summary: If you haven’t figured it out yet, Jerry is Elaine’s fiancé. They live together in a house and they’re in the midst of breaking up right now. Will they break-up though? I’ll leave that for you to find out. Read the story, quick! … No just kidding… but really, if you want to find out, read it.

Chapter Two – The Fight

Elaine just glared at Jerry as she entered the living room and walked passed him.

“Elaine, can we talk about this?” he said, trying to get her attention.

Without saying anything, she headed for their room and grabbed a luggage to pack. She was sick and tired of having to deal with somebody like him, and she wanted to get away for a while—maybe even forever.

“What are you doing?” he asked as she stuffed all of her belongings in the luggage.

“What do you think I’m doing? I’m taking everything that’s mine and moving out,” she told him without eye contact.

She grabbed an object from one of the nightstands and as she was about to put it in the bag, she felt her fiancée’s hand stop her. “What are you doing? That’s mine!”

“I gave it to you and I can take it back whenever I want to!” she retorted.

“Nope, if I borrowed it then you can take it back, but you gave it to me, so it’s mine.” She couldn’t come up with a comeback, so instead she placed it back on the nightstand and took another object. This time, it was some sort of painting from the wall.

“That’s mine, Elaine. I gave that to you.” He sounded as though he was playing around, but she had no time to put up with his nonsense. She wanted to get away from him. Now.

Frustrated, she headed for the bathroom and grabbed her toothbrush. “Do you want this too?”

Without giving the brown-haired man a chance to respond, she shoved the toothbrush in his hands and stomped out of the bathroom and down the stairs towards the living room. It took Jerry a few seconds before he gained back his consciousness and followed her down. Seeing that she was just about to head for the front door, he immediately tackled her, sending them both to the floor.

“Get away from me,” she told him, struggling to break free.

“No! If you leave, then where would you go?” he asked her.

Again, she could not think of a reply, yet she struggled to free herself from his grasp anyway. Where would she go? At Kramer’s? At George’s? She really did not know. Finally, she stopped restraining and just cried.

Sensing that it was time for a serious talk, Jerry let her go as she lay on her back to faced him. He sat on the floor cross-legged with her head rested on one of his legs. “Look, Lainey, I’m sorry okay? I really didn’t want it to go this far,” he told her apologetically, stroking her hair with one hand and the other wiping her tears.

“Don’t you trust me anymore? I love you Jer. You know that right?” she replied, placing a hand against the one on her face.

“I do trust you. It’s just that I get worried sometimes. I get scared that something might happen to you, especially when you’re around Williams. You do tell me a lot that he tries to… you know…” he ran out of words to say.

She rose from the floor and sat herself down at his eye level. She placed a hand against his cheek and kissed him lightly. “I can handle myself, Jer. I’m a big girl now, remember?” she told him once she broke away.

“And I’m sorry for being so overprotective of my big girl,” he told her.

Elaine smiled and pulled him into another kiss. This time, it was more fervent rather than gentle like the previous one. It also lasted longer, reaching up to the point where he tried to remove her shirt. Once she felt this, she immediately broke away.

“So, I guess this means that you’re not leaving?” he asked her with a smile.

She didn’t answer, but instead she smiled ran up the stairs to their room, causing him to chase her.

“Lainey, what now?” he asked her as he ran up the staircase.

He entered their open bedroom door and saw her between the sheets, smiling at him. He leaned against the doorframe and asked her with his arms crossed, “What are you doing?”

“Oh, I don’t know,” she started playfully. She went under the sheets and then out, revealing only her face. She then took out her top and continued as she dropped it on the floor, “What does it look like I’m doing?”

“Ohhh, god,” Jerry said followed by a sigh of pleasure as he watched all of her other pieces of clothing fall to the floor. Before the last one could go, he took his shirt and pants off and went over towards her between the sheets.

Once again, they picked up where they left off, placing trails of gentle kisses on her collarbone, earning a soft moan from her. They continued, only pausing at short time periods without interruptions until the phone rang.

Elaine let out a little whimper.

“Let it ring,” he told her.

“No! It’s bothering me,” she exclaimed.

He whimpered and begged her not to answer, but in the end, she won anyway and answered the phone. “Hello?”

A familiar male voice was heard through the receiver. It was her boss. “Is this Ms. Benes speaking?”

“Yes, this is she.”

“I’m calling about Mr. Williams. Ms. Benes, as his assigned trainer, it is your job to make sure that he knows exactly what to do.”

“Yes, I know that sir, and I’d really like to talk to you about him tomorrow first thing in the morning.”

“Very well. We will discuss Mr. Williams’ behavior tomorrow. I shall see you in my office once you’ve clocked in.”

“Yes, sir.”

“Have a good evening, Ms. Benes.”

“You too, sir.”

At that, she hung up the phone.

“Your boss?” Jerry asked, seeing the unpleasant expression in his beloved’s face.

“Yup. He wants to talk about the imbecile I’m supposed to train tomorrow. First thing in the morning! Do you know how bad it is to start my day at work just to talk about him?” Elaine exclaimed.

“Hey, don’t get all upset now. It’s bad for you,” he said, trying to cheer her up.

The dark-haired woman rested her head against her lover’s chest. “I just wish he could leave me alone,” she said.

“Don’t worry, Lainey. I’m sure he will somehow,” he told her, as he wrapped his arms around her upper body.

Elaine just looked up at him for a moment and leaned in closer and closer, until the gap between them was no longer in existence. And once again, their dance of love continued all throughout the night.

Additional Notes:

Did you think it was a little disturbing? Don’t worry, you’re not alone. It was pretty hard for me to write that part. I can’t even believe I came up with that! See, I’m the type of writer who just lets her mind flow. I didn’t even see that coming. It was kind of like watching your parents hook up in front of you. Oh, my god.

Okay, anyway, review please, and tell me what you think!

Sincerely,
Micchan
