A/N: I don't know what the hell Wattpad is doing and why they are messing with the rating of my story but it's not cool. It's actually pretty irritating. So hopefully this goes well. :/ If not, I will leave a link to my AO3 account so you all can read the chapter there.

She didn't call. She didn't text. Alicia completely isolated herself from Mark the next week after their confrontation. She really wished things didn't go the way that it did, especially on the day of his return. Yet, it gave her time to re-evaluate what she was doing. She was fuck buddies with a famous YouTuber who could have any woman he wanted. A man who seemed to have feelings for her but his words made her feel different. It hurt. It hurt bad...
She never thought that she would ever be in situations like this. She always thought that she would be in a loving, committed relationship or even engaged at this point to a guy with a career, who knew how to cook all her favorite foods and loved her endlessly. She quickly guessed that life had other plans for her or maybe she did find the person...
Alicia stared at herself in the mirror, her eyes staring through herself. The sepia eyes searching her reflection for the answer as she looked down at her phone, chewing on her lip as read another missed call from Mark. She winced as she turned her phone over so the screen was facing down before she began to brush her hair, ignoring the painful throbbing in her heart. She had agreed to go to lunch with Jules, who ad she had grown to know more and more as time went on. He was incredibly sweet and humorous guy. This lunch was a bit special, at least for Jules. Alicia snickered as she put on a blue skirt and a strapless tube top with a pair of simple flats. As she had finished dressing up, she heard a knock on the door. Knowing it was Jules, she skipped to the door and opened it to see his frowned up expression. Alicia clasped her hands together as she took in his outfit.
Jules was dressed in a nice red button up and a nice pair of dark jeans with a simple pair of black shoes. His vanilla hair was pulled back in a low ponytail, which made Alicia pout.
"Oh come on, I told you to try a man bun," she said reaching to tug at his ponytail and he shook his head before staring sternly at her.
"I don't like this. I don't like the color red and I hate this kind of dress up. I feel ridiculous...," Jules murmured.
Alicia stepped outside of her apartment and began to lock it up before turning to him with a bright grin. She patted his arm, hoping to give him more encouragement but the scowl stayed on his face.
"Jules, you look great! I promise...," she said sincerely, making his silver eyes finally soften and look at her shyly.
"I...I haven't done this in such a long time," he murmured softly. "I just hope that nothing goes wrong,"
"Everything is going to be fine, I swear. It'll be fun...," Alicia says with a small giggle as they head outside and to her car. As they headed to a small bistro downtown, Alicia mind drifted to Mark. She felt her heart react once again, aching at the thought of not talking to him anymore. She couldn't bring herself to go that far; she couldn't even imagine not talking to him anymore. It was just so hard after what he had said, all of out of jealous on top of that. She took a breath, trying to clear her head. Now wasn't the time for any of this...
"So have you talked to Mark?" Jules piped up as if he read her mind. Alicia glanced over at him before focusing back on the road.
"No..." Alicia said quietly, trying to keep any trace of her thoughts out of her voice.
"Don't you miss him? I mean, it's been a week and he had just gotten back when you guys had argued and you guys are not even speaking to each other. It's like he never came back...," Jules said softly.
