Jacob pov 6months later

He had been away for a week doing a campaign for Helly Hansen.
Driving home he couldn't wait to claim his wife, sink himself in her.
As he neared the city he saw an advertisement for her coffee shop. His heart almost stopped. She stood there smiling while a guy had his arms wrapped around her, holding her tight.
'What the f**k!!!'
Pressing his dash he said.
"Alexa, call Schmetterling."

The phone rang out.
"Hey." Her voice sang.
"Who the f**k is he Alexis?" He demanded.
"What? Who is who?"
"The f**king guy with his arms all over you!"
"Oh the advert. That's Daniel. Him and..."
He cut her off.
"On first name terms. You had him in our bed?" He spat.
The line went quiet.
"Take it, I'm right." He growled.
"Go f**k yourself Jacob. YOU are the only man who has EVER touched me. YOU are the only one who has EVER made love to me. YOU are the only one that has EVER shared my bed." She screamed. "You know what. DON'T come home. I don't want you here."
"FINE." He hung up, beating his hand on the steering wheel.

Storming into Kabu offices, everyone turned to him.
"Sup bro?" Bene asked.
"Ok if I stay at the mansion for a bit?" He made himself a drink.
"Sure. Erm, anything we can help with?"
The coffee cup smashed off the wall and he dropped to the floor leaning against the cupboards.
"I've just accused Lexi of cheating on me."
His friends surrounded him.
"Why did you do that?" Jojo asked.
"Saw her advertisement and the green eyed monster rose."
"The one with Daniel? He's a regular at the coffee house with his wife and kids. The little ones love Lexi." Luis stated.
They all turned when the office door burst open.

Alexis pov

How dare he think that.
She sorted through masses of photos that had been taken of him over the past few years, eventually just throwing them all into a box.
The taxi dropped her off at the office, and waited. Looking over at his car she felt like going over and puncturing his tyres, but she just rushed inside.
Slamming the door open the boys were all standing over by the coffee machine. A stain of brown fluid running down the wall. They looked at her.
"Where is he?" She growled.
They moved apart as she stormed over to him still sitting on the floor. Opening the box she emptied hundreds of photos over him.
"One f**king picture Jacob and you called me a whore. What should I call you?" She hurled the box at him before she turned and ran out, climbing into the taxi she left.

At home she pulled on her running gear and made sure everything was locked up before she headed out into the streets.
The sun was beginning to drop but she kept going.
The tears stung at her eyes but she just wiped them away.
"ALEXIS."
Slowing, she saw Julien running her way.
"Not now Julien. I'm not in the mood."
He nodded but ran alongside her.
Soon they were back at her home.
"Thank you." She whispered as she went inside.
He silently turned and ran away.

Under the warm jets she cried. In the bedroom she curled in a ball under the sheets watching her phone as Jacob rang over and over and as her voice messages piled up.
She deleted them all without listening to them.
Then Tim messaged.
Tim: Lexi are you OK?
Her: How do I know this isn't Jacob?
Tim: You don't. You'll have to take my word for it.
Her: I'm a mess but hey tomorrow's another day.
Tim: He didn't mean it.
Her: Don't stand up for him. I know you're his friend but...
Tim: He's an ass.
She laughed
Her: Goodnight Tim
Tim: Goodnight Lexi
