| Claire's POV |

My phone vibrated and I quickly grab it seeing the caller I'd showing Nash. I slide to unlock and answer the call.

"Hey baby." I speak in the phone as I turn on the TV.

"Claire we need to talk about something and it's urgent. I'm on queen street, on my way home." He spoke fast and unable for me to understand a word he was saying.

"Woah woah, babe slow down what's wrong?" I sit up straight in the couch.

Nash explains to me that he needs to tell me something and that he can't really talk cause he's driving.

I couldn't help but wonder what he wanted to discuss and I knew it wasn't a good news because of the way he spoke when something bad happens.

The sound of the front door slamming snapping me out of my thoughts. Nash walks in the living room and he was red like crazy his shirt was crumpled, his hair was messy and his tie was lose. I glance down at his knuckles and the was blood on it. I looked at him with confusion and panic. My husband tells me he needs to tell me something and I see that there's blood on his knuckles.

What the hell is going on?

"Nash what the hell? Why are you like this? There's blood on your hands." I say panicking and asking him a ton of question. I get up grab his hand with the blood on it and look at him.

"Claire I need you to sit down and calm down, please." he says trying to sound calm, but it wasn't working. I can't stay calm because there's fucking blood all over his hand. 

I stare at him and listening to his command. . I sit down on the couch as he sits beside me grabbing my hand.

He begins to talk as I feel a wave of betrayal and hurt wash over me.

My brother in-law and my close friend?

I can not believe what i am hearing. Nash explained to me that the blood was from Cameron. When he punched him.

"We have to be strong for Diana, she has no idea and we are not going to tell her. It's not our place too, yes it will crush her but Cameron is will tell her. " he says whipping my tears not realizing that I was crying. I nod allowing him to continue.

The front door opens and closes as Mackenzie, Baeya and Josh walk in.

I quickly whip my tears, not wanting them to know what is wrong.

"Hey mom, dad." they all say in unison.

Josh goes to the kitchen while Mackenzie and Baeya sit down on the white leather sofa across from us

"So, Stephanie asked Aunt Diana and she said it's no problem. All she asks is that you guys, her and uncle Cameron sit down and talk about it." Mackenzie starts talking. I flinch at the sound of the name Cameron's name being mentioned but i try to hid it.

"Sure, that's fine." I look at Nash nodding my head and smile at the girls.

Saturday Afternoon

I offload the last plates in the dishwasher, and are the same time I close it the door bell ring, knowing that Cameron and Diana are here. I open the door, seeing as they brought along food with them.

I smile seeing Diana with the bowl of fruits. My gaze turns to Cameron who had a pack of grape juice in a champagne bottle, and I just feel like punching and screaming at him but most importantly opening the bottle and allowing the cork to hit him in the eye , but I try to hide my anger as he also notices that I know about his affair.

I move to side allowing them to walk in. I follow them into the kitchen as Diana places the bowl on the marble kitchen counter. Cameron stands opposite to us not saying anything.

I talk to Diana for a few minutes and Nash walks in creating an awkward tension between the three of us, especially him and Cameron. Their best friend more like brother and Cameron ruined their friendship.

"Hey big bro." Diana smiles and hugs him. He gladly returns it and lets go of her.

Nash stands beside me not even giving a shit about Cameron being in the same room. As a matter of fact he hasn't even said anything to him. Why should he though?

"So about the kids, I think it's a good idea I mean they're mature enough." Diana starts to talk, nodding in agreement. Nash unwraps the cellophane around the fruit bowl.He was about to pick one with his hand and realizing what he was doing. Diana and I both slapped his hand causing him to curse out da fuck

"You know better Nash." Diana said shaking a head and also saying what i was going to say. I told her that I had a new recipe for cooking, we walk into the great room leaving Nash and Cameron in the kitchen together.

|Cameron's POV|

The ladies left the kitchen, because Claire had a new recipe and whenever she has one she and Diana always trade it.

I knew that Nash told Claire due to the fact that she gave me a cold shoulder, gave me glares all the time and didn't even say one word to me since we arrived.

I look down at my shoes , knowing this is an awkward and terrible situation that I find myself in.

"Nash please let me explain." I finally speak breaking the silence. He looks at me with anger and I can notice that his jaw is clenched.

"Save it Cameron." he puts his hand in the air, not wanting to listen to anything that I have to say. He slowly walks out of the kitchen leaving me to think about my mistakes and my consequences

What have I done, my best friend caught me fucking his wife's co worker in my office. He won't fucking believe any word that I say and I'm soo fucking screwed.
