<< down at my watch, I noticed it would be close to closing time here. This was going to be one hell of a conversation. I wasn’t leaving now until I actually spoke with Brooke Trevino. I just hoped she was clothed this time*

When did you get back? *I called out as I leaned against my bike. I knew it was a matter of time before Brooke Trevino came out after her shift, pocketing her damn good tips. With a body like that, she would make bank in no time. I shook those thoughts out of my head as I stood>>

<< and made my way over to Brooke Trevino, arms crossing over my chest as my eyes narrowed into a glare as I glanced down at her* Were you ever going to tell me you were back or was I just not even on your fucking radar? *I hadn’t even told the guys what was up yet. They didn’t>>

<< need to know. I would call #Lumiere later and tell him but for now, this was between me and Brooke Trevino. And no small talk. I wanted to get right to the goddamn point. Pissed off was an understatement and she owed me some fucking explanations.*

Are you kidding me right now? *I said, anger rising as Brooke Trevino said she didn’t know what I wanted from her* I just asked you. What the hell are you doing back here and why the hell did I have to find out with you flashing your bare ass in my face? *My breaths >>

<< came in pants as I tried to control my temper* I swear, you just disappeared without a word then you appear much the same way. Was I just some passing fancy to you? Now you just flash that ass of yours for anyone willing to pay? *Yeah, I was being a dick but I didn’t >>

<< care right at the moment. I was pissed off and hurt. Both fed off the other and I felt my nostrils flare as I glared down at her* You thought so little of us, of me, that I didn’t warrant a phone call or an explanation? Seriously? Nice to know. So I”m going to ask you one>>

<< more time… What are you doing back? Why are you back? *That was all that really mattered to me. I needed and deserved answers but if Brooke Trevino was going to be back, I needed them so I could keep my head about me with the guys. I Just sealed the deal of a >>

<< lifetime. I couldn’t jeopardize it over Brooke Trevino. If I lost this deal, there went my club and my life. I didn’t have a heart since she left so that wasn’t at stake anymore. But I wasn’t going to risk my club because the woman in front of me broke my heart*

*I didn’t know what I was expecting but when Brooke Trevino said that #Gaston had brought her back, I about lost my shit. I took a deep breath and a couple steps back, running a hand through my hair before over my face and goatee* You mean… You left me and are returning with >>

<< the person who wants to kill me more than anyone else? God damnit, Belle!!! *I nearly screamed in frustration as my heart shattered all over again. Brooke Trevino didn’t come back for me. She didn’t want me. No, she was spreading it for my worst enemy now. >>

<< Yeah… I was done. The pain would be a slow death but at least I knew I would never hurt this bad ever again. Only Brooke Trevino could hurt me like that but no more* Got it. I know where your loyalties lie. Won’t bother you again, sweet cheeks. *My tone was harsh as I >>

<< turned my back on Brooke Trevino, not trusting myself to look at her this second*

Explain what? *My tone was filled with venom only to hide the pain as I looked anywhere but Brooke Trevino. I couldn’t do this. I didn’t want to hear the rejection. The reason behind it* You’re sleeping with the person would sooner gut me than shake my hand and you think there’s>>

<< a good enough explanation? Are you on something? *Rudeness was my go to when I was hurt. It allowed me time to put my walls back up. Walls that didn’t want to go back up with Brooke Trevino standing right there* What could you possibly say that could explain this shit?

-I still couldn't believe this shit was happening. It had been days since I had seen Brooke Trevino and I still couldn't wrap my head around it. #Lumiere asked me what the fuck was up And I had finally come clean. He wasn't happy with it but he backed off and gave me >>

<< save you clear my head. As I sat at the head of the table of my club, I had to decide what kind of President I wanted to be. Part of me wanted to be heartless and just cut all that shit out so I didn't feel a damn thing. But that wasn't how to keep the loyalty and >>

<< love of the guys, my brothers. I had a duty to them- Let's get this first job done! -I called out as I walked into the lounge and bar area, hands in my pockets- Let's see how this shit goes. You all have your orders. Let's get it done. Call if any shit goes down with >>

<< #Gaston's crew. No one engage if outnumbered, got it? - Once they were gone, I took out my phone and sighed. I was hoping to hear from Brooke Trevino but nothing. Maybe she was trying to keep away like I said. It's that what I wanted?-
