Heartbreaker

Chapter 14

Mason's POV

After all this with Alex, I decided I would apologize to all the women I hurt. Now it was a long list so I picked the ones I hurt the most. Honestly the one I really hurt was Jessica. I slept with her sister after dating her for a year. I didn't love her but she was good in bed and she thought it was more than what it was. I found her on Facebook since I deleted her number shortly after cheating. I took a deep breath and began typing.

Mason: hey I was wondering if we could meet up? I have some things to say to you.

Jessica: what could you possibly have to say?

Mason: please?

Jessica: fine

With a smile on my face, the first smile since Alex, I told her to meet me at Tiffany's cafe in 30 minutes then I got up and dressed. I made it there earlier than Jessica so I took a seat to wait for her. When she arrived I stood to greet her; it was a little awkward I had to admit. I didn't know if I should hug her or just sit but she decided for me by sitting down with nothing more than an eye roll. I sat down and looked at her with a small smile.

"What did you want, Mason?" She asked her voice laced with irritation.

"I wanted to explain and apologize," I said.

"It's over now there's no point," she said keeping her eyes low.

"I know I hurt you," I began. "I was immature I shouldn't have led you on. To me it was nothing more than sex and I'm sorry for that. I truly am. I didn't know how it felt to be used well not till now. I met this girl. She was the most beautiful woman I've ever seen but guess what. She broke my heart two months ago. Now she's seeing someone else and it kills me so believe me I know how you feel and I'm truly sorry."

"What was she like?" Jessica asked suddenly intrigued.

"She was a fireball. She didn't take shit from just anyone. She was tough but when it came to me she was sweet and kind. It was my fault really I kissed someone else while drunk and I told her. She slept with me just to leave me."

Jessica say quiet for a moment staring down at her hands.

"I thought I'd love to see you suffer but looking at you now I feel bad for you. Let me tell you something. I hired Alexandra Adams to break your heart," she said then she chuckled. "I'll be damned she actually did it."

"You what?" I asked shocked and confused.

"Alexandra runs a business breaking men's hearts. I can guarantee you that that little boyfriend she has now she isn't really with him. He's probably just another guy she's screwing over."

Her words took a long time to register. I knew I should have been pissed but all I felt was relief. She's not with anyone else. Then the rest sunk in, she never loved me. I was just a meal ticket. She used me for money. She was an evil bitch.

"Mason?" Jessica said cutting me out of my thoughts. "I'm sorry to tell you all this."

"No, thank you," I said jumping up and running out the door.

Trying to hold the tears from falling; I ran to my car. Once inside I let them go. How did this girl have this effect on me? God I wanted to hate her but I still couldn't not even after the information Jessica told me. I grabbed a pen and paper from my center console and jotted down what I had to say.

Dear Alexandra Adams,

I met with Jessica today to apologize for my actions; funny thing is you were the one who inspired me to do good but you weren't good to me. Jessica told me what you were hired to do and it all made sense. You never cared for me all you wanted was to get the job done. I didn't think someone could lie like that but I guess I'm a fool. You're such a good fucking liar. I'm so pissed at you right now but somehow I still love you more than anything. How the hell is that possible? How can I love you more than anything and need you more than oxygen but be so pissed at you that I could kill you? What gets me the most is how you became friends with my sister knowing you were just using me. How could you do that Alexandra? My nickname for you couldn't be more correct. You are a fireball. You destroy everything that gets close to you.
