"You can't be mad that I have sex with my wife. She was my wife, did you expect me to not satisfy her needs?" Bryan said below a yelling tone.

They were long over ten minutes into their argument now, and neither had plans on backing down.

"No, but impregnate her? While we were.. you know." Toni shot back avoiding using the word "together" which infuriated Bryan, bringing him back to their previous argument.

"There you go again, Toni. Why can't you admit we are in a relationship? What makes that head of yours so damn thick!" Bryan yelled.

Toni got frustrated quickly by the same argument and began pacing the room.

"Bryan, I do love you." She said calmly. "I really do and I'm not saying just because you did, I'm saying it because that's how I feel. I don't and won't always tell you how I feel because that's just not how I am.. at least not with you." Toni looked up at Bryan and continued. "My last boyfriend used me for my body and we spat out the whole love stuff literally two weeks within meeting each other. The one before that used me to make his ex jealous and then dumped me after I said I loved him."

A tear slipped from Toni's eye as she quickly wiped it away. Bryan motioned her to sat next to him and finish. She sat on his desk and continued.

"With you, these last few months have been crazy and fun, I didn't want to push it and next thing you know, you leave me for your wife. I love being your... your girlfriend. And I know I fucked up the other night but it's because I thought you were leaving me for Regina and the baby. I was trying to leave you before you left me. I thought it'd be easier than you telling me–"

Bryan shut her up with a kiss.

He released the kiss and looked in her eyes. "We are divorcing." He said aloud. Toni backed up and tried to hold back her happy dance. "Why? Because of me?" She asked holding her chest.

Bryan chuckled and shook his head no. "She was cheating on me. She had sex with my trainer and she's been having that affair for months, since before you. He got her pregnant, not me. I haven't even touched her since we started our relationship."

Toni smirked to herself before realized she was actually the one that cheated, and that Bryan didn't. Tears were at the brim of her eyes before she fell in Bryan's lap.

"Baby, I'm so sorry. I wish I would've known. I'm such a bad person." She says picking herself up and pacing the room again.

"I broke up your marriage and I took you for myself then cheated on you after you said you lo-" Bryan cut off her again by kissing her.

"You talk a lot. Listen. My marriage was already broken, you had nothing to do with it. You didn't take me, I made the first move on you because I liked you. Don't worry about the other night.. It only happened once, right?" He asked with his eyes glued to Toni waiting for a response.

Toni didn't want to lie but she did. "Yes. That was our first and last time having sex." Silence filled the room as they just stared at each other. Bryan winked at Toni making her blush and causing to break the staring.

Before they knew it, they were fighting over control in a kiss. There was a knock on the door causing them to quickly break apart. "Hello, I'm Dean Townier. I'm here to reward Toni Braxton.. which I'm assuming is you, the only student in the class." The dean said making her way down to the front of the classroom.

"Ms. Braxton, you are being rewarded for being this graduating class's valedictorian. Congratulations. We can't wait to hear your speech."

The dean handed Toni a certificate, a red cap and gown, and a unique tassel to wear when getting the diploma and making the speech.

As the dean walked out, Bryan picked up Toni and swung her around. "Congrats princess!" He said slowing down his speed and planting a kiss on her cheek.

"Thank you babe. I'm so surprised, I could've sworn Mariane was going to get it." Toni rambled.

"Babe, I love you and all, but shut up. Start believing in yourself and stop thinking others are ahead. You got this, come on, let's celebrate Birdman style." He said.

Toni was confused on this 'Birdman style' he spoke of because he's never addressed himself as Birdman in front of her nor did she ever call him that. "Bird what?" She asked seriously as they walked outside.

He laughed before grabbing his stuff and putting it in the car. "Pack a bag, Toni Michele. We are off to Puerta Vallarta." Bryan said. Him and Toni got in the car and drive to Toni's dorm. She hesitated but went to go pack a bag anyways.

When she got to the car, they drove off to his jet. Toni had always known Bryan as Bryan the regular guy, not Bryan the luxurious CEO of a company. She forgot he was rich and famous, thinking back, she did remember paparazzi waiting for him outside of restaurants.

"You ready?" He asked pulling up to the jet and grasping onto Toni's hand. He had such a big smile even she didn't want to go, she would've went. "Let's go."

They hopped out the car and Toni was covered so the paparazzi wouldn't see her face. As they settled in the plane, side by side on the couch, the pilot came on the PA: "Next stop, Puerta Vallarta."

Within twenty minutes, the plane lifted off and Toni felt tired already. She let out a soft yawn catching Bryan's eye.

He got a blanket and covered himself and Toni. As she snuggled under his arm, he kissed her forehead, which was the last straw before she fell asleep. "Man, I love you Toni." He said before closing his eyes and sleeping as well.
