"You are not a home breaker Jordan, don't say that you weren't aware that he was with someone,"Katrina said trying to make excuses for him but Jordan shook his head. Yes he hadn't been aware the first time, heck he didn't even know his mystery lover had been Liam but the second time they slept together, he had been aware, there was no excuse for that."I didn't the first time Kat, but the second time, I knew he had someone, I just couldn't say no, I was so stupid and so loss-filled that I let it happen."He said, covering his face in shame."Jordan, I know you better than anyone else, I know you have a knit for blaming yourself in everything but don't do it this time, as much as I don't support you cheating with someone who is already taking, I understand how you feel, you had a thing for the man and it would have been hard to resist, I couldn't do it with Lucas even when I knew all the risk, I still couldn't resist it,"" But this is different Kat, Lucas had been single, Liam isn't,

"I can't believe my best friend is going to get married, wow, I am so happy, this is the best thing that had ever happened to me,"Katrina said when she walked into his room, he rolled his eyes at her."Yeah, right, so you mean you pick this moment over your own wedding and when your two devil-angels Steria and Moon were born? I will like to see you say that when Lucas is here,"He teased."Why can't you just let me have a man? Why do you always have to be such a show spoiler? I was having fun and you just had to mention the reasons for my sleepless nights,"She said with a sad pout."Oh, I am going to add that to the list of things I am going to gossip to your husband,"He said and she glared at him."Are you my best friend or are you Lucas's spy?"She asked laying on his bed."That's the bed I spend almost every night ticking Liam on,"He announced and she was up in seconds, brushing the invisible stain off her body with a disgusted look."What the fuck?

He really didn't like the direction his mind was going and shook off the thoughts."Now why are you frowning so early in the morning? Did you have a bad dream??""No, I just, I am just,""What? You are lost for words?

Jordan looked up from what he had been doing when his phone rang, he checked who it was and dropped the phone back, it was Liam's mom calling him, he didn't know what to tell her, what could he say when he told his son to fuck off, maybe she wanted to tell him to stay away from her son, he knew that wasn't possible, the phone stopped ringing and he went back to working silently but a few minutes later, it rang again, this time, he decided to pick up."Good day, mom,"He greeted as he walked out of the office towards the resting area, thankfully, no one was in, he entered and sat down."Hi, son, I am sorry to disturb you,"She responded."It's not a problem mom, it must be urgent since you are calling me, what is it?"He asked even though he already had an idea of what she might be calling for."His are you doing Jordan?"She shows shocking him, he shouldn't be shocked by her caring, she has never stopped, ever since Christmas, when she had gotten his contact again, she had made sure t

Like he expected it wasn't going to be easy getting Jordan back but that didn't mean he wa going to give up, no he wasn't, Jordan endured a lot and him giving up right after the first rejection would be him not trying at all, he wasn't going to back out until Jordan takes him back, he didn't want live life without him by his side, there won't be a reason for his living then.Once again he was at Jordan’s apartment waiting for him even after he has been rejected every day for the past two weeks, he just couldn’t give up, he saw Jordan’s car and got out of his, running to him before he could enter his apartment.“You are here again?

"What? What do you fucking have to say to me now Liam? What?"Jordan yelled at him, he couldn't even bring himself to believe that this was even real, that Liam was here, and that he was finally whole, that he finally remembered."How could you leave just because I asked you to? You said you love me Jordan, that you will never leave me but you did, you fucking left me and took all traces of us that would have let me remember anything from me, there was no sign of you in the house we shared, nothing, and you went away,"Liam let out, Jordan couldn't believe he was saying all these to him after everything he put him through, right now he had a lot on his mind, Kat went into labor when they were on the phone together and he was worried about her.“What are you even talking about?”“Why didn’t you stay?
