I tried my best to ignore everything that has just happened but it was difficult to, I tried putting piece by piece together 

Casey and Reuben definitely had history as Mandi said, He looked at her the way he looks at me? What does that mean?

Whatever anyways Marco told me he stabbed her? I'm starting to freak out..... was it an accident or did he mean it

Reuben wouldn't hurt someone he cared for I know that for a fact, But he is the world's most dangerous assassin for a reason I can't make assumptions before knowing the true story

Victoria's Outfit

Reuben Tony and Damian were in his office I could hear them talking through the door, I tried to not eavesdrop since its none of my business but it was pretty hard to not

Reuben Tony and Damian were in his office I could hear them talking through the door, I tried to not eavesdrop since its none of my business but it was pretty hard to not

"Before it's too late" I overheard Damian speak sounding pretty serious, "No one is getting hurt because of my goddam past" Reuben slammed his desk down

That poor desk has been through hell and back, "You have to tell her, It's the only way we can prevent way of her from getting harmed and it's Victoria we are talking about"

Tony spoke sweetly, "She's nothing like Casey, Casey was the biggest bitch come on Reuben" Tony chuckled the room was silent, I started hearing rumble and screaming going around

"Both of you calm down! She is dead! Okay she is fucking dead get over it" Damian shouted pretty loud

"Reuben she is fucking dead, She never loved you and you know it! She picked Marc and left you like a piece of garbage, You need to get over it" 

Damian's voice calmed down, I immediately walked downstairs that's enough information for me. Reuben fell for a girl who sounds like a complete bitch and left him......

It all makes sense now! He broke down once he saw me and Damian kiss I triggered him..... I triggered Reuben's past that's why Damian never fought back that's why he treated me like shit

Precious little Reuben...... I've been such a bitch, haven't I? "What were you doing?" Selena walked out of nowhere bumping into me

"I was just getting a drink" I stutter fake smiling, "Same I really need a drink come on" Selena dragged my hand into the kitchen taking two glasses out and pouring liquor on them

"They won't notice have you seen their liquor room?" Selena whispered handing me a cup, I softly chuckle taking a sip as she sat beside me, "No actually"

I groan, Wow this is extremely strong they must handle their liquor pretty well, "So why were you really eavesdropping on their conversation" Selena whispered giving me a confident smile

"Ugh fine I was trying to listen" I groan rolling my eyes, "Yea so what were they talking-" "Hey girls" Tony walked up to us taking a drink out himself

"Um, your neck?" Selena questioned worriedly, Tony had a slight cut on his neck which seemed like a knife. I think I know who caused it.....

"Got into a fight with my bud, we're all good now" Tony smiled sitting across from us, "Sure?" Selena chuckled suspiciously

Reuben and Damian then walked in, Reuben's shirt was all fucked up while Damian's blazer was as well

I got the image in my head of what happened, Reubens's facial expression screamed Enraged, It was so noticeable I could read him like a book

I tried my best to ignore him but why couldn't I take my eyes off him, It got on my nerves, I kept staring at Tony's neck, Reuben loves Tony

Would he hurt someone he loves? I'm just scaring myself at this point, I need something way stronger than one drink

Damian Tony and Selena seemed to get along pretty well since they all talked and laughed around, While me and Reuben were both distracted

I could tell his head was somewhere else, I just kept overthinking about Casey, He then placed his glass down and stood up walking away

I decided to go up to him we left things pretty bad "Hey where are you going?" I question curiously speaking nicely 

"Going boxing don't wait up" Reuben walked upstairs

-----------------------

Reuben seemed to have fixed my bedroom window so quickly, At least I could sleep in my room, not in his.

Reuben left and I did wait up, Everyone was asleep but I couldn't even fall asleep, Once again I had a bad gut feeling

I got up and walked up to Reuben's room, I place my hand on the doorknob and open it quietly "Reuben?" I peeked inside seeing his bed fixed

"What the" I walked in and looked around his room, He was nowhere to be found. I tried calling him and he wouldn't pick up

He's probably with a stripper, I did get on his nerves and he had a bad day, I sighed as I walked out of his room and got a sudden random call

I picked up expecting it to be Reuben, "hello?" I spoke, All I heard was breathing... Is this Reuben?! No, he's Reuben for god's sake

He could take care of himself, I roll my eyes and hang up the phone and continue to talk up to my room 

I got the call once again and I started getting spooked, "Hello?" I answered once again, Nothing just breathing?! "I don't know who the hell you are but this ain't funny!" I whispered out loud hanging up the phone 

As I was about to get into bed I got one more phone call, "Leave me alone!" I shouted, "Victoria Velasquez?" I heard a women speak on the other line

"Oh my god yes I'm sorry about that"
"No need this is the Cities Hospital calling to inform you, Your husband Reuben had been shot and beaten up I request you please come in- Hello?"
