Richard's pov

While the pm guys were in the booth doing their thing, we we're sitting waiting for our turn.

"Shit, bro Richard have you heard about Aria?" Joel says looking over at me.

"WHA- is she okay? What happened?"

"Yeah yeah she's safe, but Um it's more of what she did"

"What did she do?"

"Just look man"

He hands me his phone and it's a page with multiple pictures of what? Alex and Aria? Yeah they're hugging and look really close. That looks like he's kissing her forehead... what the literal fuck.

The caption read:

LA star Aria Camacho spotted at a cafe cuddled up with what it seems like, model Alex Beck. Recently Aria was seen holding hands and out a lot with singer and member of prettymuch, Brandon Arreaga. Camacho and Arreaga were rumored to be dating.. could Aria be cheating?

"Damn it. DAMN IT ARIA."

"Puede ser falso, no tenemos su lado de ella todavía" (it could be fake, we don't have her side yet) zabdiel says

"Yeah, there could be a reasonable explanation" Christopher says.

"She better have a good ass reason for all this shit" I respond.

"Reason for what?" Zion says as his head pops out of the door. We all look at each other.

"has Brandon checked his phone?" Erick says

"No.... I have his phone, why?"

"We'll tell you but you can't tell Brandon, at least not yet" I say not wanting him to freak out too much.

We told him to sit down and showed him the article. By now it's trending on twitter. He kind of freaked and wanted to tell Brandon.

"He deserves to know man, if he's being cheated on he gets to know"

"We don't know she was cheating, they're only hugging in the pictures"I respond

"I came out here to go home so I can get an extra mic so I'll go home. Talk to her and she what she has to say"

"Fine but you have to let her explain before you jump to anything okay?" Joel says warning Zion. He nods and gives us all the guys phones except for his so none of the boys can find out.

Zion's pov

All that's going through my damn head is 'it can't be'. She couldn't have cheated, she's not like that. That's not the girl we know. It doesn't make any sense. It can't be.

When I park I take a good 5 minutes to calm myself down and prepare myself. Then I walk out it he house, open the door to a quiet house. I could hear them. Talking in the kitchen and I walk in quietly.

"Hey z" Ari says looking at me.

They see that I'm not my usual self, "Wha- is something wrong?"

"Yeah um, have you guys not seen your phones?"

"Um no our phones are up in Ari's room charging" Jenn says

"Why?" Ari asks.

"Can I talk to you privately, Aria?"

"I- anything you need to say you can say in front of her, Zion. What's wrong?"

"...... Um okay, can you explain this?" "Please? Cause I'm not understanding anything at this point" I add.

I slide the phone on the counter and let her see it. Her eyes widen.

"Fucking asshole. I knew he was up to some shit." "Read this, Jenn". She says passing it to her.

"So it's true... you Um cheating?" I say lowly

"Wha- NO NO Zion. I can explain, and no I'm not cheating on Brandon. But has he seen? I promise there's a reasonable explanation"

"No, Richard saw it first and he wanted your side before he showed Brandon"

"I'm not cheating, I went to get us coffee and.. Zion he had a knife to me in those pictures. He said some bullshit story about just wanted to hug me one more time" "I should've known he wouldn't pulled some shit like this"

"He- he had a knife to you?" I say not really believing it but kind of. It seems so far fetched but Alex is pretty crazy.

"WE HAVE PROOF! Yeah I was on a call with her when it happened, he didn't know and I recorded. So you know we're telling the truth" Jenn says running upstairs to get her phone.

"I know it sounds crazy but I'm telling the truth."

Jenn came down and played the audio. And they were telling the truth and I felt so relieved. I took their phone with the audio and drove back to the studio.
