Around 8pm, Brixlee left the office when she got Xavier’s text. He was already waiting when she got to the parking lot."Hey, Brix"He said smiling broadly."You're early" she implied entering the car."I couldn't get the whole plans off my head" Xavier replied grinning . “I hope you’re ready for our first date?”“Sure, let’s just get it over with” Brixlee replied halfheartedly as the car zoomed off.…They arrived at the fanciest restaurant Brixlee had ever been to. Like a gentlemen, Xavier pulled the chair for her and then sat opposite her.The next few minutes passed by them scanning the menu cards “what is your favorite cuisine” he asked her.Brixlee was taken aback by the sudden question, Xavier already knew what her favorite cruise was, infact he knew everything about her so why was he asking her again.“Dude! You literally know everything about me!” Brixlee said smiling.Xavier frowned. “Don’t ruin this for me, please. Let’s just pretend we’re meeting for the first time” he excl

Brixlee felt a lump come to her throat as Xavier said those words, she slowly disengaged the hug, avoiding his gaze.Those words reminded her of Nathan, he had said the exact same words to her and she also loved him back. She felt guilty, guilty that she was leading Xavier on, she shouldn’t have hugged him back, she should’ve made it clear that she wasn’t interested but by hugging him back, she gave him hope, hope that Brixlee was going to be his soon.As they drove back home in silence, Brixlee thought about what had happened. Why did she hug Xavier back? She shouldn’t have and she felt guilty, like she was cheating. Her thoughts drifted off to Nathan. What would he even think of her if he found out that the woman he said he loved was already lusting after his sworn enemy?Her heart skipped as soon as her phone beeped. It was a text from Nathan.It read; “WHAT ARE YOU UP TO?”She sighed and sank deeper into her seat, closing her eyes and soon all her worries dulled into oblivion.…T

Brixlee sat on the couch in her living room, staring blankly at the TV screen. Her mind was numb, and her heart felt like it had been shattered into a million pieces. She couldn't believe it - that Nathan didn’t want her anymore because Allison was carrying his baby?Brixlee felt a sudden ache in her chest. Her eyes welled up with tears as she stared down at her feet. Her lower lips trembled as she struggled to blink back the tears before they dripped down her cheeks. She clenched her fists, quickly drawing in breaths, hoping the feeling would pass.She slowly rubbed her chest, trying to ease the ache in her heart and gulped in air once again. It was so hard for her to breathe. She tried to clear her throat but the twisted lump remained drawing her voice together. She sniffed trying to blink back the tears. She sighed heavily,letting her hand drop. It felt like she was struggling to swallow a still-breathing heart.She got on her feet, lowering her head in her palm as she fought back t

As Nathan watched Xavier and Brixlee getting into Xavier’s car, anger bubbled within him and it was all Allison’s fault. He had never felt so angry in his life. Angrily, Nathan drove up to Allison's house, the anger within him simmering like molten lava.The car halted as Nathan got out. The autumn leaves crunched beneath his feet, echoing his frustration, as he made his way to her front door. Clenching his fists, he banged on the door, the sound reverberating through the quiet neighborhood."Allison! Open the damn door!" He yelled, his voice strained with anger.After a moment, he heard the locks turning and the door slowly creaked open. Allison stood before him, her face pale and nervous, but he wasn't concerned with her emotions. Nathan’s heart felt like it was going to burst out of his chest, the betrayal etched into every fiber of his being."What the hell did you think you were doing, Allison?" He spat, his words laced with venom. "Why would you stoop so low as to make up a lie

Two days later, Brixlee decided to finally go back to the office. That morning before she left home, she had started having a bad feeling about it. Maybe she wasn’t ready to face Nathan yet? Maybe she didn’t have to go back?As she walked into the office, Nathan and Tyler weren’t there yet. She took her seat and inhaled deeply, questioning her inner instincts and as she did, the door slowly creaked open and Nathan appeared. Nathan’s heart raced when he saw Brixlee, it felt too soon. He wasn’t ready to tell her the whole truth about the bet, he wasn’t even sure if Allison hadn’t got to her first.Their eye met and Brixlee could feel her heart sink to her stomach. She could feel her heart race as Nathan walked up to her, stopping right in front of her desk.She managed to find her words, “Good morning, Mr Grey” her voice trembled under the weight of her grief."Brixlee," Nathan began, his voice tinged with a mix of guilt and desperation, "we need to talk."Brixlee nodded solemnly as
