One Shot

Mae's POV

Why was Tommy calling me? We agreed to FaceTime once a week so that I could enjoy my time with Maggie and so he could focus on his career.

"I..um..better take this," I said awkwardly getting off of Nick's lap. He sighed in frustration but nodded nonetheless.

"Hey Tommy," I breathed into the phone. I really wasn't in the mood to talk to him right now.

"Hey babygirl." I could see Nick tense up when he heard the word "babygirl" and I walked a few more feet away from where he was sitting.

"Do you need something, Tommy? I thought we agreed to once a week?"

"Can't a boyfriend just check in on his girlfriend that he misses?" I immediately felt the hair on my arms stand up. He sounded suspicious, almost as if he was up to something. Who am I to talk though. I just cheated on him.

"Look, Tommy, unless its important I would like to stick to the once a week thing," I was saying anything at this point to hang up.

"Okay okay I'm sorry babe. I'll talk to you later. Love you." And with that he hung up. I scrunched my eyebrows up in confusion. That was almost too easy. Tommy is definitely up to something.

I put my phone back in my pocket and turned around to see Nick laying on his back on his bed staring at the ceiling. I waited for him to say something but when he never did I decided to speak up.

"Nick?"

"What?" He snapped back. I tensed up.

"Say something," It came out as a plea and I knew I would regret it later.

"What the fuck would you like me to say, Mae?" Nick said getting angrier. He got up off his bed and started walking towards me.

"You just cheated on your boyfriend! I can't believe you didn't tell me. That's disgusting, Mae!" Nick was waving his hands around and yelling. I continued  backing up until I was to the wall.

"Just get out," he sighed in frustration.

I shakily put my hand on the door handle and made my way out but no before hearing a muffled "whore" leave Nick's mouth. I felt my eyes water and slammed the door shut. How dare he call me that. I know I shouldn't have cheated on Tommy and I should have told Nick I had a boyfriend. That doesn't stop it from hurting though. I made my way downstairs and exited the house. I'm going to my aunt's house. I don't think I can face Nick for awhile.

My aunt wasn't even fucking home. She left me a note that said she had a business trip come up and she would be gone for a month. She did say I was welcome to stay and use her house for my time in LA however. I was going to take full advantage of that.

I texted Maggie and told her to come over later so we can swim. Only good thing about my aunt is her pool is super nice. Maggie said that she and the boys would be over later. Fuck. That means I have to see Nick again.

Time passed slowly. Being alone in a big house was no fun. I decided to put my bathing suit on and go lay out until everyone else got here. Nothing else to do.

I opened my eyes to a big splash that absolutely got me soaked. I must've fallen asleep.

"Zionnnn," I whined. He chuckled and continued to splash me until finally I had enough and walked away.

"Why did you just leave earlier? You could've stayed at the crib?" Brandon asked and I felt my face flush. I looked up to see Nick taking his shirt. Brandon must have seen because he made an "o" shape with his mouth and gave me a little smirk. I took my arm out and pushed him backwards. He ended up stumbling and falling into the pool. Maggie and and I let out fits of laughter.
