***THE NEXT DAY

Mia made the Instagram live unavailable on her account almost as soon as she ended it the night before. Even so, the screen recordings of her saying that she made sure Tony "knows he would be her choice out of all the boys in the house" is all over the internet. The other members are already teasing Tony and Mia. Like everyone else, they assume that something must have happened between the two.

Tony decides to call off his agreement with Thomas. Things have gone too far at this point and he's tired of lying. He looks around the house for Thomas and can't find him anywhere, so he sends him an angry text.

Tony: That's it, Thomas! I'm done playing your stupid game! This whole thing with Mia is being blown way out of proportion and everyone thinks we're actually dating now.

Thomas: That was the point, Tony.

Tony: Well now it's gone way too far and I don't want to do it anymore!

Thomas: Listen, Tony. This little controversy of yours has us on everyone's radar which means $$$. If you wanna tell the truth and mess with that, that's fine, but you and Ondreaz better start packing your bags.

Tony: Oh hell no! Idc about the clout. If you try to expose our relationship or kick Ondreaz and me out of the house over this I'll just tell everyone how controlling you are, what it's really like to live here. You don't want another Daisy situation, do you?

Thomas: Don't EVER mention her name to me again!

Tony: You think I won't expose you right back?
Do what you want Thomas but I'm done.

When Nick sees the video, doubt in his and Tony's relationship starts to creep into his mind again. His jealousy has been building so much ever since Tony and Mia started hanging out together that he feels like he could explode. He knows he needs to confront Tony about it, but he's not ready yet. He just wants to clear his head so he goes out for a drive.

***A FEW HOURS LATER

Nick is back from driving around and feeling calmer. He heads upstairs to Tony's room and stands outside the door for a second. Before knocking on the door, he prepares for the heartbreak that may be coming, depending on the outcome of their conversation. He doesn't have to open the door after all because Tony comes outside.

"Baby, you're back," Tony says going in for a kiss.

Nick dodges the kiss and walks past him into the room, taking a seat in the older boy's bed.

"Wow, ok. I deserved that. " Tony says with a sigh, "Nick, I know there's something you want to say. Can we please just get it over with?"

"You wanna get it over with?" Nick says incredulously.

Tony pleads, "Please, I hate you being mad at me. Whatever it is, just ask."

Nick gets up from the bed, his jealous anger boiling up again. He finally asks what he's been holding back, "Ok. Be honest with me. Is something going on with you and Mia?"

Tony responds immediately, "Not at all. We're just friends I promise."

Nick is not convinced and continues to question Tony, "Then what did she mean on her live? Because it sounded like she's got a crush and wasn't afraid to let you know that. I'm obviously not the only one who thinks so either," he says.

"Sure, I knew how she felt about me but I stopped it. I told her I only see her as a friend," Tony tries to reassure him.

"What do you mean you stopped it? Did something happen between you two!?" Nick asks accusingly.
