"Nice to meet all of you." Trevante says making eye contact with you before him and Ava walked to their seats.
As they sat directly across from you down your glass of wine and immediately excuses yourself from the table going outside while Ty followed close behind. Once you made it outside you sat on a bench in silence gathering your thoughts.
"Wait was that the Trevante you were telling me about?" She said. You nodded your head not looking up from the ground.
"Hold on I'm about to kill this nigga." Ty said a taking off her earrings and getting ready to go back in.
"No. Just forget about it." You tell her grabbing her. "Let's just go." You say.
Ty goes inside to let everyone at your table know that you were leaving because you weren't feeling well and she met you out front while you waited for a car. When you got home you showered, got dressed and went to bed. The next morning you got a text from Trevante soon as you saw his name you put your phone down and went to the kitchen. You started making yourself some tea when Ty walked in.
"Good morning." You say to her as she grabs a cup out of the cabinet.
"Morning Y/N! How you feeling?" She asks.
"A little better." You tell her as you sit at the table.
"C'mon let do something to take your mind off all this shit. Let's go to the beach or shopping, something I just don't want you stuck in your apartment all day. And I'm hungry so before we do anything let's get food." Ty says sitting next to you.
You agree and soon the two of you are out at breakfast. After ordering your food you and Ty talked and waited for your food to arrive. In the middle of your conversation you get a call from Trevante again and you immediately declined it. A minute later you see he left a voicemail you then turn your phone off and focused your attention on Ty. Once you were done with breakfast you and Ty went to The Grove to shop.
Hours later you arrive home and put your shopping bags away. You go into your guest room and help Ty pack for her flight in the morning.
"Fuck I didn't realize how much stuff I had." Ty sighs trying to close her suitcase.
"It's probably because you're leaving with more than what you came with." You laugh. Getting up you go into your room and get a bag to give Ty. "Here you should be able to fit everything else in this." You say giving her the bag. You sit on the bed and continue to watch her pack.
"Y/N promise me you won't forgive him." Ty says looking at you.
"I won't." You tell her.
"You say that now but I know you Y/N you're too forgiving. As soon as you talk to him again you're gonna act like nothing happened." She says.
"I promise you he is the last person I wanna see or speak to." You say.
The next morning you wake up and get ready for work. Ty's Uber showed up you help her with her bags to the car. You say your goodbyes and watch as she leaves. Once Ty is fine you get in your car and go to work. When you got to work you went straight to your office to avoid seeing or having to speak to Ava. As you sat staring at your computer you hear a knock on you door and see Jeremiah waving at you. You invite him in and he sits across from you.
"Feeling better?" He asks. You look at him confused. "Your friend said you weren't feeling well at the party." He says.
"Oh yeah I'm fine now." You tell him. "So what's up?" You ask.
"Nothing much really. Ava's away for the next few days so I'm gonna make the best of it." He joked. "Speaking of Ava that fiancé of hers is...oh my God." Jeremiah continues.
"You never met him before the other night?" You ask.
"No. Which is weird because I'm usually everywhere she is." He says. "I've never seen them together, I've never seen him at her house, hell there aren't any pictures of him at her house or her office. But then again she is hella private so I kinda get it." Jeremiah continues.
"Yeah you right." You say getting up. "I'm going to the cafe downstairs you wanna go?" You ask Jeremiah. He agrees and the two of you leave.
Later as you got home you started to get comfortable until there's a knock at your door. You get up and look out the peephole to see Trevante. You sigh and turn around to go sit back on the couch.
"Y/N can you open the door please?" Trevante begs.
You ignore him and sit back down.
"Come on Y/N just let me explain and if you don't want to talk to me again I'll leave you alone I promise." He yells through the door.
You hesitantly walk back to the door and open it. Trevante comes in as his tall frame hovers over you. You take a couple steps back and look at him.
"Explain." You say folding your arms.
"Listen Y/N when we met Ava and I weren't together at the time. But a month or so after you and I met we got back together but I didn't want things between me and you to end so I kept it going." He tells you.
"That's a poor ass excuse but I didn't expect anything else." You say.
"I know. I'm sorry." Trevante says walking towards you.
"What I don't understand is the night we met I told you where I worked and you didn't once bother to say 'Hey my ex is your boss.' You didn't even bother to tell me so I could've avoided all this." You yell. "And not only that you and her got back together while we were together. I would've preferred you telling me you didn't want to be with me, hell you could've ghosted and that would have been better. But instead you led me on and made me feel stupid." You continue to yell as you felt tears roll down your face. Trevante stood quietly as you continued to yell at him.
You tried but couldn't stop crying as Trevante steps closer to you. He holds your face wiping your tears. He leans in to kiss you and you push him away. He kisses you again and this time you gave in and kisses him back. As much as you knew what you were doing was wrong you couldn't help yourself. Coming to your senses you push Trevante away again and the two of you just stood staring at each other. After a minute you tell Trevante to leave and you go into your room.
