It was a Friday in Salt Lake City in the early days of December. Since it was off season, Tobin had come to stay at her girlfriend, Christen, and her roommate, Mal's, house. This weekend was special because Mal's boyfriend, Dansby, was in town for 2 nights before he had to go back to MLB training. The four had dinner together last night, but tonight, Christen and Tobin opted to go out on a date so Mal and Dans could have some alone time before he left tomorrow morning.
"I think I'm way too full for dessert" Christen laughed as she told her girlfriend.
"I am too but that doesn't stop us from taking it to go. We can even bring an extra piece home for Mal and Dans. You know how much home girl loves her chocolate cake" Tobin said before their date was interrupted by a phone call.
"It's just Kelley I can call her back later" Tobin said before declining the call. Only a second later did Christen's phone start to ring.
"Uhh I should probably answer this, just in case it's an emergency" Christen said before answering the phone.
"Hey Kel, what's up" Christen asked.
"Umm have you or Tobin been on your phones recently?" Kelley asked.
"No, why? We're out on a date right now at that Italian place downtown." Christen answered kinda confused.
"Uh Christen, social media is blowing up right now of a photo of Dansby kissing another girl at a club. It was posted about 2 hours ago but a ton of tabloids have reposted this photo. It's literally everywhere right now." Kelley explained.
"Are you fucking kidding me? Kelley, I will call you as soon as I get home and find out more, I promise you" Christen said before angrily hanging up the phone. Tobin looked at her in confusion.
"What the heck was that about Chris?" Tobin asked slightly worried.
"Kelley said there is a photo on social media right now of Dansby kissing another girl and it is blowing up. She said it's everywhere." Christen explained to Tobin before a flash of anger spread across her face. Tobin stood up from the table and pulled money out of her wallet. She handed the waiter the money and told her to keep the change. Before Christen even realized, they were pulling out of the restaurant trying to get home.
Tobin sped into the driveway and through the car into park. At this point, Christen and Tobin were both fuming. Upon Tobin opening the door, they heard yelling. Tobin looked up to see Dansby's suitcase sitting by the door.
"Get the fuck out of here" they heard Mal yell.
"Mal, I'm not going anywhere. Just let me explain to you" Dansby countered back.
"I don't fucking want to hear how you cheated on me but somehow it's not what it seems or it's not your fault" Mal replied back with obvious anger in her voice.
"Just open the damn door and stop be a fucking bitch" he yelled at her through the bathroom door. At this point, Tobin knew she needed to step in.
"Dansby, I'm only going to ask you once. Get out of our house, right now" Tobin said, surprising him because he didn't know they were home yet.
"Guys, it's not what it looks like" he said in a panic.
"Dansby, she doesn't want you here. You need to leave" Christen said in authoritative voice. They could see how angry he was at this point. He slammed his feet down the stairs and grabbed his suitcase. He opened the door and turned back.
"Mal, call me when you're done being a fucking cunt" he said before turning and slamming the door shut. Only then did they hear the crying coming from the bathroom. Christen and Tobin walked up the stairs to the bathroom at the end of the hall. Christen gently knocked.
"Mal, will you let us in?" Christen pleaded. A second later they heard the door unlock and a head peek out from behind the door. Mal's face was bright red and covered in tears. Christen pushed the door back and pulled her into a tight embrace.
"It's okay, it's not your fault" Tobin said placing her arms around the two. They were met with soft cries of pain and humiliation.
