Khalil POV
I get off the stage as Riley walks off towards some of her girls smiling. Probably to gloat about how we are "dating". I didn't even want to date her to be honest but the label says that its what I have to do to gain more publicity and so..I technically have to.

I feel a slap on the back of my head and my guards immediately come to my aid.

"No shes fine" I say and they leave Angel alone.

Once they're gone Angel turns to face me.

"What the fuck was that! You're with Riley now" She snaps

"No not in reality. Its just for show for publicity." I explain

"So you dumped Brice like that just for publicity!" She says pissed

"I knew that I couldn't date her and Riley at the same time even if Riley's wasn't real. I wouldn't have eno-"

"You shouldn't be explaining this to me. You should be explaining it to her. The way you dumped her was worse than over text." Angel sneers

"I know and I honestly feel bad caus-"

"Stop explaining to me cause I dont give a fuck. Do you realize she came here to this party to clear things with you like mature adults. She was gonna say sorry but you did this to her."

"I didnt have a choice." I sigh cause I really didn't like seriously.

"You always have a choice Khalil. Its how you set those choices up that makes the difference."

My eyebrows pull in confusion and Angel shakes her head walking off. Now that I think about it...I really did hurt Brice and I shouldn't have. I feel like a dick. Im sure that if our roles were switched I would have acted the same way as her. I need to fix this.

I search around the club for Brice but see no sign of her. Maybe she ran to the bathroom but I cant go into the bathroom like that. A few minutes later Riley struts into the hall.

"Yea babe." She says batting her lashes.

"Hey can you go in the bathroom and see if Brice is there." I ask and she smiles a fake smile.

"Of course" she walks in as I stand there.

Riley doesn't know that this is fake. If she did her dad would lose business cause Riley likes things her way and if she doesn't get that then she will most definitely cause hell.

She comes out a few minutes later and shakes her head no before kissing my cheek and walking off. I sigh and pull out my phone choosing to text her.

"Babe come dance with me" Riley says from down the hall and I glance at my phone.

"Oh come on Im sure Brice is fine. Just give her some space." Riley states walking to me and handing me a drink.

"Yea...yea ok" I put my phone in my pocket and down the drink.

Please be ok Brice.

Brice POV
I walk around the full parking lot of cars as I try to search for a familiar face. No doubt I probably look fucking crazy with dry mascara down my face and my hair messy. As I turn around to search the next lot that is behind this huge building which displays the movie "50 shades of Grey", I bump. into someone.

"Brice? You came!" I look up and my eyes meet Robs.

"Oh yea. Thought Id come hang out with you" I smile a fake smile.

"What about your plans for tonight?" He cocks his head to the side.

"Oh turns out I wasn't really needed" I look down as silence falls over us.
