Temptation

The Past: Part Two

A/N: I was kinda stumped on how i was going to finish the flashback and jump back to the present so I kinda pieced this together in hopes to shake a few things up. Bare with me, the next chapter will be... fun lol

The Next Day

When Mercedes woke up she had six missed calls from Shane and a few texts messages. She opted to just call him instead of reading the messages.

Why didn't you answer when I called?

I was asleep! Why are you so snappy?

Why the hell was Tank there? You text me at three somethin talking about he was there and now we need to talk. You fuck him?

Hold the hell up! You need to check how you're speaking to me because I have no issues ending this call right now. The fact that you could even fix your damn mouth to accuse me of cheating on you with Tank of all people is beyond insulting!

What do you expect me to think? I know you have a thing for him...

WHAT! I do not! I can't stand his ass. I wanted to talk about the fact that he told me you told him about us and then had the nerve to come onto me and accuse me of flirting with him and playing whatever game he thought I was playing. You would have known that had you not left like a fucking thief in the night.

Yeah... I told him but I didn't expect him to come running to you after. I left you a note, something came up and I didn't want to wake you. Baby, look I don't want to argue especially not after last night. Let me make it up to you? I'll come over and make your favorite foods, we can watch a movie and just cuddle.

So you're not even bothered that your boy came on to me? That he kissed me? That he tried to take my robe off?

You didn't say he did all that! Why hide the kiss from me?

You didn't ask! You didn't even say anything when I said he made a pass at me. Look, this isn't going anywhere so bye.

Cedes, don't han- *click

Mercedes was beyond pissed! How in the hell could he possibility think she would even sleep with Tank? Hell why would he even accuse her of that, she made him wait three years and now after one time she was just going to spread her legs to any man? Where the hell did he have to run off to and why hadn't he explained that? She decided she was going to find out where he went and why it was so urgent for him to do so. She got dressed and decided she was going to pop up at Shane's since he suggested coming to hers.

She knew that she was going to seem crazy but she had a gut feeling something was up and she'd be damned if she got played. She took a deep breath and headed to her car to make the trip to his place, when she reached her car she saw one that looked just like his. She shook her head telling herself that it wasn't his and that it could be anyone's car. She stood a little longer before giving in and going to look at the car to see if the sticker she'd put on it was there. She tried to look as casual as possible walking to the vehicle when she reached it she saw the "MJ" sticker on the bumper and knew it was his.

She looked around to see if anyone was in it but it was empty. She felt her self backing away from Shane's truck and heading back to hers but she stopped and turned around to see which building it was parked in front of, if he was there he had to be in one of the buildings. She saw it was across from Building G and tried to think if she knew anyone that lived there but couldn't think of anyone except her lab partner Monica. Fucking Monica, that slutty bitch! She thought to herself as she headed to her apartment, they had met over there once and Shane needed to Mercedes' key to get into her place so she told him to meet him over at Monica's. That was months ago... she started walking faster and getting angrier the closer she got. Had this motherfucker really come over to her house, fucked her then went to Monica's after? Had he been there ever since he left her last night? She approached Monica's door and began banging on it and shouting his name.
