After a few hours of getting Thomas up to speed with the game and it's map, stats, weapons ect. They heard a knock at the door. Ivy looked at Thomas she was in full couch potato mode with Zeus on her lap so she wasn't moving any time soon. Thomas went to the door and welcomed Pierce in, he was brought up by the security.

"Wow is this where your living now it's like out of a magazine Ivy." Pierce was stunned by how grand the place was. ​​

"Come in and get in the kitchen." Ivy didn't even raise her head to look at him.

"Ok this humble servant can only follow your orders my lady." Pierce bowed sarcastically and walked to the kitchen.

"Wow this kitchen is small but stylish I love it. I want the counters at our place."

Ivy rolled her eyes as she sat beside Thomas and loaded up her game. She plugged in Pierces laptop and turned it on. After half an hour Pierce brought out the food there's buffalo chicken bites, mini burgers, beef taco cups, nachos and mini desserts like brownies cookies, truffles and mini cheesecakes.

They eat, game and chat for a few hours and then stopped for a break. Thomas cleared away the food and washed the plates. Ivy scratches Zeus ear and checked her phone and saw a txt from Jamie.

"Did you hear from Jamie he has a big steak out tonight its Nicole Simmons. I wonder if he failed..." Pierce commented jokingly, he stopped seeing Ivy's face.

Ivy looked at the txt and her heart dropped into her stomach she felt sick. The txt read..

(I'm sorry Ivy)

She then scrolled through the three pictures that followed. The first was Nicole Simmons and Noah meeting outside a hotel. Then the two of them eating dinner together. Seeing the last picture felt like she was punched in the gut. It was a picture of Nicole Simmons and Noah outside the elevator inside the hotel.

Thomas and Pierce watched Ivy flick through the pictures over and over till she threw her phone down.

Ivy then saw Thomas take out his phone so she grabbed it and stuffed it down into her leggings. Thomas was not allowed to txt Noah. She would see him when he gets home. She didn't want Thomas to call him back. Ivy got up and grabbed three glasses then the bottle of whiskey.

"Who's up for a drink?" Ivy waved the bottle and glasses.

"Ivy." Thomas didn't want her to drink because she was upset.

"Don't Thomas not tonight." Ivy poured herself a drink then another, then another she was shooting whiskey after whiskey. To stop her from drinking Pierce asked for a drink so Ivy obliged but it didn't end there so she grabbed beers from the fridge.

This continued until Ivy broke the silence. "Why am I never good enough. Men always cheat.... No don't stick up for him." Ivy hiccup and ranted for a while.

Thomas tried to calm Ivy down she sounded defeated and sad. Pierce looked at Ivy and sighed he new this would happen once she got drunk. Noah was wealthy, handsome and the no 1 bachelor of course women would chase and flirt with him. Ivy should have more confidence in herself.

"Don't worry Thomas she rarely drinks but when she gets drunk she's a bit bipolar."

Thomas nodded and went to the kitchen to get water. He came back to Ivy hugging Zeus.

"Your the only one I can count on Zeus."

"Come on Ivy drink some water please." Thomas offered her the opened bottle.

"No." Ivy waved her hand about and the bottle was knocked over Ivy and Zeus.

"Damm it." Thomas cursed and set about trying to pry Ivy from Zeus. Pierce joined in and helped Ivy up.

"Let's get her changed." Pierce helped wipe Ivy's face with a tissue and Thomas carried the drunk woman into the bedroom while Pierce followed.

"Wow this bedroom is the size of my apartment." Pierce stood in awe for a minute.

"Eh... Ivy's closet is there beside you." Thomas set a wet Ivy down on the king-size bed. She stared up at him like a kid waiting to be told what to do.

Pierce grabbed the first t-shirt he could find, though it turned out to be Noah's. Thomas pulled Ivy up and they both tried to get her sweatshirt off.

"Stop it, stop it, it tickles." Ivy giggled and Thomas sighed and thought at least she is laughing and not crying again. He was thankful for Pierce or he wouldn't know what to do with a crying Ivy.

"Come on take off your shirt or you'll get a cold."

"I won't I haven't been sick in." Ivy was trying to think and used her fingers to count in a very cute way.

"Two months." A deep cello like voice entered the bedroom.
