"I don't like you and Daniel together. He's not good for you." I leaned on the doorway of Gwen's new office with my arms crossed, she didn't bother to look up from her laptop as she typed away.
"And that concerns you... how?" She continued to type and it annoyed me that she wouldn't look up at me.
"What? Can't stop writing us fucking to take a moment to talk to me?" Gwen slammed her laptop shut and stood up.
"Like I fucking said, this concerns you, how?" I rolled my eyes as she grabbed her bag out of her desk and shoved her laptop in. She snatched her iced coffee off the desk that hadn't even been touched and put her phone in her back pocket. "And believe me, Bowman, I have no plans to ever write about you again. That was a fucking mistake on my end. So don't worry. I'm officially out of your life before the weekend." Gwen pushed past me and began walking down the hall briskly, stopping at the front desk and dropping off an envelope that I hadn't noticed in her hand.
"What does that even mean?" She looked at me and rolled her eyes, walking towards the elevator, pressing the button, and got in the moment the door opened.
"I just handed in my resignation. I'm done working for cheaters, on and off the track. And don't worry about Daniel, I'll make sure to tell my cousin just how jealous you are of him." I blinked in surprise at how nasty she said that towards me as the door shut in my face.

"So she quit?" Bethany straddled my lap, her lips on my neck as she rocked back and forth slowly. I wasn't in the mood and pushed her off of me. "So much for fucking you tonight." She got up from the couch, brushed off her skirt like it was covered in lint, and rolled her eyes at me. "Why are you sulking about it? She's finally gone. That stalker can't ruin our lives now." Bethany smirked at me and then hiked up her skirt to reveal nothing but bare skin. "Now if you don't lick this pussy, I'm going to go find someone else to do it for me." I just glanced up at her and rolled my eyes. "Fine, I'll see you at Dega this weekend." And just like that, Bethany pushed down her skirt, grabbed her purse, and left me to wallow in misery.
I don't even know why I'm so out of it right now. I got what I wanted, right? The girl of my dreams, the amazing sponsorship, and a potential contract that looked like it was going to be extremely becoming in the wealth department. I was already locked into the playoffs and if I kept things up, I knew I could get a few more wins under my belt.
I knew what I had to do and as far as Gwen was concerned, well, it didn't matter now. She was gone from my life.
However, something deep in my gut told me that letting her go was a huge mistake, but I just brushed it off. The mistake was getting to know her for real, her dirty secrets were enough to turn me off and against her.
I'm not falling for that mistake again.
