I was cuddled on the couch,wrapped on a blanket,watching Marley dance for me to Let It Go. My phone buzzed. I slipped my arm out from under the blanket and opened up the text.

"Hey how you feeling?" Nick texted, I looked over at the time,so it was time for him to get off work,I sighed, "Better. Thanks,babe." I responded. I stared at the ceiling. I am so stupid. I know I have to tell him sometime,because if I don't then it'll just get worse. I can't lose this job.

"I was thinking that you and Marley could come over & spend the night, I want to make you guys dinner. If you're feeling okay."

I couldn't help but to smile.

"Mar,wanna stay at Nick's?" I looked at her as she began to jump up and down, I took her to the bedroom and changed her in a better outfit. I then got her in a car and drove off to Nick's.

I pulled up in Nick's driveway and there was a white mercedes in the driveway, that wasn't Nick's. I got out of the car and helped Marley out, "Who's car is that,mommy?" I sighed, "I don't know,honey." I went and knocked on the door. "Bye Nick." this brown headed girl walked out, "Oh,sorry. I'm Olivia Culpo." she gave me a smile. I was confused on why she was here. "I'm Demi."

"It's nice to meet you,Demi. Bye." she walked out and I walked in, "What was your ex doing here?" I crossed my arms, "Nothing happened I swear. I didn't even plan on her coming by. I cross my heart." I smirked at the fact that he was getting nervous.

"What did she want?" I walked over to him, "She said she missed me and she wanted me back,but I told her 'hell no, I am with someone else.' " then he looked at Marley, "Sorry for my bad word,Mar." he went and picked her up. "Okay,good." I smiled and pecked his lips. "You're forgiven,Nick." Marley smiled.

"I hope you guys like spaghetti because I made it just for you." Nick smiled at Marley. "She does,but she makes a mess out of it,just a heads up." I grinned, "I'll clean it up." he pecked my lips, he then put down Marley, "I'm sorry sweetheart but I have to stir the sauce." Nick headed to the kitchen.

"Mommy,can I play his xbox?" she looked at me, "Babe,can Marley play your xbox?" I raised my voice, "Yeah,sure. You need to buy a age appropriate game on the demand. Don't worry about the price."

I found a Zoo game,so I bought it and she started playing, I headed to the kitchen, "Can I help you with something?" I grinned, "You can put the noodles on our plates."

"Okay." I got the noodles on the plates as Nick poured the sauce over the noodles, he dropped some meatballs on our noodles too and he had to cut Marley's meatballs for her. "Come on,Marley. Time to eat. You can play it again after." we all sat down.

After dinner, Marley went to play the game again and Nick and I sat on the couch,watching and talking to each other. "I wish I could tell you why Joe is a d-i-c-k,but I can't..." he stroke my hair, "Eh," I shrugged, "I don't care about it anymore." I laid my head on his shoulder. "Can you guys spend the night? I'm willing to take Marley to school."

"Please mommy!? Can we have a sleepover with Nick!?" she begged, "I have to take Selena's car back home.." I sighed, "You get ready for bed and I'll take the car back,just give me the keys." he gave me a smile, "How are you going to get home?"

"I'll get a bus. Don't worry, please?" Nick begged, I giggled, "Fine."

"Yay!" Marley clapped.

I was working in my office on this Tuesday morning. I was writing emails that Kevin wanted me to do. The hard part was that I had to act like I was Kevin. There was a knock on the door and Joe walked in, I sighed. "Hello Mr. Jonas."

"Demetria. I need you to do me a favor." He sat down in a chair in front of my desk, I looked at him, "And what's that?" I stopped typing, "I'm always invite to this shitty fundraiser dance thing, and supposedly you're suppose to bring a girl or guy.."

I just stared at him.

He sighed, "And I was wondering if I could bring you along,we don't have to dance or anything." my mouth dropped, "You hate me,remember? Why the hell are you inviting me?" he raised an eyebrow, "Why are you so shocked?"

"Well,you can be a bit of an asshole." I sat back,watching him look at the ceiling and chuckling, "Do you not know alot of girls?" I sipped my coffee, "No, no one is as stupid to stick around me as long as you. You're the only woman that I know could go. I gave you this job,you can do this favor for me. Besides, if I knew the girl who fucked me last Friday,she would be the first one I'd ask."

I scoffed, "I have to do a favor because you hired me?! Um,correction, you and your brothers, hired me." I looked him in the eyes,those dark chocolate eyes, he chuckled, "I was actually the one who saw your name and suggested to the brothers to interview you. But I really thought you were a boy."

"Yeah,cause Demi is such a boy name." I rolled my eyes.

"So,can you just fucking do this for me?!" he looked at me, I sighed, "Fine,but what would Nick think about this?" I played with my pen, "He'll be okay with it. He's not invited and he has nothing worry about anyways because if you make a move and you're fired."

"Trust me,the only move I'll be making will be poking my eyes out with needles." he chuckled, "I'll pick you up tomorrow at 6. It's a formal thing." he got up.
