Ariana's POV

I was pulling up in front of Paige's house and I was already regretting this.

But I had no choice.

And I sure as hell wasn't going to Ms. O'Connell's place.

No way.

I'll just have to cope.

I let out a deep sigh and got out of my car, locking it right after and going up to her door.

Before I could even knock, Paige opened the door with a huge smile on her face.

"Hey, I don't know if your allergic to dogs but I brought my dog Tolous-" She wouldn't even let me finish as she pulled me in, closing the door behind me.

"I'm so happy to have you here, Ariana. D-do you need anything or want something to eat?" She asked.

God this bitch was scary. It was like looking in a mirror.

"Um.. no thanks, I'm good. I-"

"Maybe we can stay up all night. We could have a girls night making cookies, painting each other's nails and watching movies, yeah?" Oh hell no. I gotta get outta here.

I'd rather stay with Ms. O'Connell than be tortured by my clone.

Thank you, next.

"Yeah, you know what? I actually have to go back to the office because I left my... wallet there. So yeah, I should really get going." I chuckled uncomfortably.

Before she got the chance to respond, I rushed out of that bitch and back into my car.

"Fuck me," I whispered to myself.

I have to go to Ms. O'Connells.

I just hate that my plan is falling to pieces.

I sighed and took my phone out to text her.

You

Ms. O'Connell, I'm sorry to be a bother but do you mind if maybe I stayed over at you're house for a little while?

Ms. O'Connell

I'm busy right now

You

Please, I have no where else to stay

Ms. O'Connell

That's your problem

You

My boyfriend cheated on me and I feel like shit right now, please Ms. O'Connell I'm begging you

Ms. O'Connell

He cheated on you?

You

Yes

Ms. O'Connell

And you feel like shit right now?

You

Yes

Ms. O'Connell

I'll pick you up, send your location

~

Ms. O'Connell let me in her house and of course as promised, she was busy.

She had someone over.

A girl.

A pretty girl.

"You can take your stuff and go upstairs to the guest room." Ms. O'Connell closed the door behind me.

The girl just stared at me and if I'm not mistaking, she looked kinda scared.

"I-..."

"What?"

It's just that I usually keep my stuff in your room.

"Nothing, nevermind." I chuckled awkwardly. Before she could even respond, I went upstairs and into the guest room.

It was nice but I'd rather stay with Ms. O'Connell.

Speaking of Ms. O'Connell, who the hell was that girl downstairs?

Is she another one of Ms. O'Connell's toys?

God why do I care so much? It's not like I'm dating the woman.

Claudia's POV

"So that's the new intern, huh?" I chuckled to Billie, taking another sip of my wine.

"Yeah, she's a gem."

I've seen that look in her eyes before.

This isn't good.

"Billie be careful-"

"I know what I'm doing Clauds." Billie cut me off with a sigh.

I just wanna make sure she's okay.

"I know but not only could this get you fired but you don't want what happened last time to happen again. Y'know, with-"

"Don't you dare even say her name."

We both went into an awkward silence after that.

"It's almost your break right?" Every year she gets a break off work for a whole week and that's this month. At least I think it is.

"Yeah, why?"

"Well Finn was thinking we could have you over since he hasn't seen you in a while. Also your parents miss you like crazy." I chuckled.

I was just doing my best to change the subject. When Billie gets mad, it is NOT pretty.

"Maybe. I start break in three days so hopefully work doesn't fall apart without me."

I hate how she's always tied up in her work. She needs more than just a week break. Maybe like a vacation or something.

But she could never.

Her mind would be on work all the time so it wouldn't even be a vacation, it'd be like a stress trip.

Something she DEFINITELY doesn't need.

"I should get going but it was great seeing you again, Bil."

"You too, and tell peach I said hi." She chuckled.

We both got up and hugged like never before. I only ever get to see her like once every two years so I take in as much as possible.

"Oh, and Bil?"

"Yeah?"

"Treat her good."
