Rachel POV
Marshall has gone mad since our fight. Proof told me he's been sleeping with different women from city to city. I can't really blame him for being pissed at me but does he really have to completely ruin the relationship we had going on.
"Hey hun, how's it going" Molly greets me as she walks into our hotel room.
"I'm fine" I say as I stare at the small tv.
"Look, I know your down about your man and everything but you need to get over that and get laid" Molly says seriously. This is surprising to me because she's always acting to nice and innocent.
"Damn, what has gotten into you lately?" I ask amused to her new attitude.
"I'm sleeping with someone" She smirks.
"You little slut, who is it?" I ask giggling.
"I don't kiss and tell" She says.
"But enough about me, we're going to the after party tonight and getting fucking laid" she says with a smile.
"If Marshall sees me with another guy, he will literally flip" I say seriously.
"I don't know, I heard he has a thing with some girl now" She says looking down.
"What? With who?" I ask surprised. How could he move on so fast?
"No idea, I just overheard a conversation. But enough about him, we need to get ready bitch" She says making me laugh.

*THE AFTER PARTY*
Molly and I walk into the club making our way straight to the VIP lounge area. I instantly see Marshall sitting next to Proof and the rest of the guys.
"Yo, Rachel" Proof says waving me over to him.
"Wanna sit with them?" I ask Molly making sure it's okay with her.
"Yeah thats fine" She says with a smile. We walk over to the couch and we sit in between Proof and Marshall. Thankfully Molly sits next to Marshall making it a bit easier to avoid him.
"Yo girl, why haven't I seen you hanging around lately" Proof asks making me give him a stupid look.
"Really"
"Just because you and Marsh ain't a thing don't mean you can avoid the rest of us" Proof says.
"Yeah Rach, we miss you" Biz says making me laugh.
"Okay sorry, I'll come see you guys more often" I say giggling. I turn to talk to Molly but I see that she's talking to Marshall, which isn't bad, I just didn't know they were friends. I then see his arm around her shoulders. Wait a minute... it makes since now! Marshall is the guy she's sleeping with and that's why she's basically telling me to back off of him.
"Proof, are Molly and Marshall fuckin?" I ask him bluntly. He looks at me and says nothing.
"Don't play right now, why didn't you tell me?" I say seriously.
"Look, I for real don't know what's going on between them. All I know is that she's been hanging around him a lot since y'all's fight. He's said nothing about it to me yet, so she must not mean much to him" He tells me. I yank Proofs arm and I take him across to the other couch so Molly does not hear me.
"This bitch has literally been fucking preaching that I should forget him and get laid! She's as fake as the next bitch, I can't believe this" I say angrily.
"I feel you, that's fucked up but honestly you need to chill out and lay low and see if she tells you about it" Proof says trying to be the peace maker that he is.
"Maybe your right... but I'm giving that bitch like 1 week to tell me that shit cause I can't keep acting like her friend" I say seriously. I notice Marshall coming over to our couch.
"Y'all good?" Marshall says quickly glancing at me.
"Why wouldn't we be good?" I ask sounding like a bitch.
"Cause from over there it looks like y'all are tweakin the fuck out" Marshall says smirking.
"Nah we're good man, we just talkin" Proof says.
"You want something to drink?" Proof asks me as he gets up.
"Yeah, something strong" I say smirking. He leaves me with Marshall. An awkward silence lays over us for a few minutes.
"You know I still love you, right?" Marshall says sitting down next to me.
"Bro, no you don't. And even if you did this definitely is not the fucking time to tell me" I say annoyed.
"I do though, and I want to make things work with you" He says looking at me.
"You wanna make it work?" I ask him like he's stupid.
"Yeah..."
"Why don't you go fucking make it work with Molly" I say letting the cat out the bag. I get up and feel Marshall grab my wrist.
"What are you talking about?"
"Don't you even dare act dumb right now"
"I don't know what you've heard but I don't wanna be with Molly, I fucked her once and now the bitch won't leave me alone" Marshall says seriously.
"How could you sleep with her? You know I'm cool with her! Fucking with you again was seriously the biggest fucking mistake I've ever made" I say walking out of VIP.
I go down to the bar cause Proof is taking way to long with my drink. I sit down and order my regular choice of drink. I sit in silence for a while just downing drink after drink.
"You from here?" A guy next to me asks. I look him over and damn he's fine as fuck. Definitely my type.
"No, just visiting" I say cause I don't want to explain.
"I see, so where you actually from sweetheart" He asks nicely.
"Michigan, and what's your name" I now ask.
"I'm Marco" He says giving me a sexy smile.
"I'm Rachel" I tell him.
"Well Rachel, how about we take this back to my place and get to know each other" He says smirking. Wow, this guy is fast but I don't mind it.
"That's kinda progressive, isn't it" I say teasingly.
"What do you say?" He says smirking.
"Ok" I say and I get up as he pays for our drinks. I can't believe I'm doing this.
As we're walking towards the door I get stopped my some grabbing my waist from behind. I turn around In confusion.
"Who the fuck is this fuckin punk?" Marshall asks glancing at Marco.
"Do I know you?" I ask. I'm just gonna pretend like I don't know him cause I like this Marco guy.
"Rachel, stop fuckin playing" Marshall says.
"Whoa dude, you're not about to yell at her like that" Marco says intervening.
"Motherfucker, this is my girl so back the fuck up" Marshall says getting closer to Marco. Did he really just say that?
"Dude you must be mistaken cause this is my girl and we're about to leave together" Marco says. This man is bold as fuck.
"If you leave with his guy, I swear I will never fucking talk to you ever again" Marshall says looking at me angrily.
"Marco let's go, this guy is drunk as fuck" I say pulling his arm.
