Secrets Tear Us Apart - Book 2 of I love my best friend

Chapter Two~ Who the hell are you?

I had originally planned  on just telling Jordan I had a savior who turned out to be an ex boyfriend who my current boyfriend hates , but once I started, the rest came out like word vomit. I ended up telling Jordan practically my whole life story.

By the time I finished, all he could do was blink at me. "I told you ... you should have sat down." I laughed nervously. Jordan replied by sliding down to sit on the floor.

"Someone's in a pickle.." he mumbled. I felt my hand go to the back of my neck. "You think?"

"Am I the first person you told about this?"

I nodded. "Willa knew before, but i told her that he left before the attack after i closed up. i thought he did, since i hadn't seen him after the party... then it was kyle and i just..." i sighed heavily as i slid to the floor beside Jordan. "i don't know what to do."

Jordan blew out a breath, scratching his cheek. "I don't know what to tell you... I honestly don't.."

I sighed again, "Should I meet with him today...?"

He pressed his lips together and looked over at me. "Let's answer that with a question... Do you love Chace?"

"Of course," I nodded.

"Do you want to wreck what you have with Chace?"

"No." I shook my head, not even daring to think of what would happen if I slipped up and did something I would regret.

"Then you tell me..."

I bit my tongue then stood, "Mind if I take about 5 minutes off? I have to make a call.

"I'll cover you.. go on."

I smiled and thanked him, then ran out the back door, pulling my phone from my pocket. I raised my phone to my ear after dialing, the ringing echoed through my ear as I rounded the corner. I stopped dead in my tracks as I saw what looked like Chace talking to a brunette. He was all leaned up on the wall, acting all cool. Then I heard it. His laugh. It was Chace. Who was he even talking to?

"Hello? Lexi?" Kyle's voice rang through my ear.

"Kyle." I spoke, turning my heel, back to the two people. "Change of plans... I'm not meeting you today... or any other day. I won't let you get in my way so just... keep your explanations. I won't tell anyone.."

I didn't even give him time to respond before I hung up and turned back to see the people had left. I pursed my lips and walked back in the mall using out back entrance. Thanking Jordan again, I went back to work. But I couldn't help but wonder... Who was that brunette Chace was talking to? Why the hell was he flirting with her?
