Demi's POV:

"Hey nena, how was the gym?" My loving boyfriend asked as I walked into the house.

"Hi Wil, it was good. I've been working on kickboxing, I'm really enjoying it. I'm actually going back to the gym later tonight for an extra session. One of the mixed martial arts coaches said they would train me tonight" I told him excitedly.

"That's cool, just make sure you don't overdo it baby. Working out two times in one day, you know?" Wilmer warned me while also reminding me of my past struggles with an eating disorder.

"I know. Thank you baby. Do you want to come watch your girl kick some ass?"

Wilmer smiled at that, "Sure. I would love to."

Later that night at Unbreakable Gym:

"Hey Demi, ready to get started?" David the MMA coach asked me.

"Sure, David this is my boyfriend Wilmer."

"Pleasure to meet you David. I'm a huge fan of MMA" Wilmer said while shaking his hand.

"Thank you man. Demi, I invited Bomba to our session, he's going to be sparring with you" David told me and walked away.

Shit. Bomba and I had hooked up a few months ago. This would be the first time I have seen him since. And to make matters worse, my actual boyfriend is here as well.

"Bomba? Great, he's going to be here? And close with you?" Wilmer asked annoyed.

"I didn't know, I'm sorry."

"It's not your fault that the guy has a crush on you. Poor guy though, he doesn't stand a chance. We've been through so much." Wilmer said kissing my cheek and going over to the water fountain.

I am the worst. He doesn't know I cheated on him and I can never tell him. It would break his heart and it was a mistake. I just have to get this session over with and hope Wilmer doesn't suspect anything.

Later that evening:

"Wil, are you ok? You've been so quiet since we came back home from the gym"

"Yeah, I'm just tired. It was interesting seeing Bomba"

"Uh, yeah I guess" I chuckled nervously and replied to him.

Wilmer paused for a moment before asking, "Demi, did anything ever happen between you two?"

My heart stopped.

"What? Why would you even think that?"

"That's not an answer. Just tell me the truth"

"No, I promise. Nothing happened. I don't even know why you're asking me this"

Wilmer closed his eyes tightly and when he opened them again, there were tears streaming down his face. I had never seen him look so hopeless and hurt. It was in that instant I knew that he knew everything.

You always break a heart when you break a promise

"Wil, can I please explain?"

"What's the point? You're just going to lie again. God, when did you get so good at lying?"

"How long have you known?"

"I overheard your boy toy talking on the phone about how he's sparring with the girl he hooked up with a few weeks ago. He was bragging to his buddies that her boyfriend was here too. But I didn't know for sure until now. You can't even look me in the eye since I brought him up"

"It didn't mean anything. I don't even know why it happened. I'm so sorry" I tried to explain while also crying.

"You know what the worst part is? The fact that if you had told me the truth just now when I asked about him, we might have been able to make it work. Goodbye, Demi. Take care of yourself" Wilmer told me while leaving.

You asked a question and I lied

I think about it all the time

I was wrong to think I'm right

Playing God with you and I

But the truth always comes out

In the silence, it rings loud

Where there's smoke, there's a fire

Now I know what you see

When you look at me

I will always be a liar
