I watch Trevor disappear behind the house and I shake my head. Literally 85% of me thought he would grab my hand and we will walk back to the car together. My eyes water and I hurry to wipe them. I turn around and start to head back to the car. Mason was busy hitting the wheel, nodding his head with the music. He turns it down when I reach the passenger side getting in.
"Hey..." he says and I look down at my lap. I take a deep breath and look out the window.
"Could you take me home?"
"Yea, is your brother and Trev coming?"
"No" I said putting my seatbelt on. Mason pulls away from the building and honestly I wasn't sad. I was disappointed. I was so angry that they decided to be reckless after how shitty tonight has already been. What's the point of beating up Nico? What is that going to solve?
When I arrive to my dorm, I thank Mason and headed up. I unlock the door and the house smells of pizza. I shut the door and immediately Desi walks out her room.
"Hey" she says and I look at her before walking to the living room. "I wasn't expecting you to be back for awhile? How'd it go?"
"How do you think it went Desi?" I said staring at her.
"Camari I had to tell him" Desi says and I go sit on the couch. "I get it, you're mad and you hate me but Nico needs to be dealt with. He can't go around just hurting people" she says and I lay down on the couch. "Are you going to talk to me?"
"I don't hate you" I say.
"What?"
"You said I hate you... and I'm telling you I don't" I said and she walks around to face me on the couch. She stares at me as she rubs her arms.
"What happened tonight?" she ask.
"Everything" I said.
"What does that mean?" she ask. I decided to explain everything about the situation starting with Brianna Benson and my brother in high school. The secrets, the lies and all of us getting exposed. "YOU GUYS WERE IN JAIL?" Desi yells. "WHY DIDN'T YOU CALL ME?"
"Wouldn't let me use the phone" I said.
"And now you're brother and Trevor are at Nico's?"
"Yea..." I said and Desi paces back and forth.
"What the hell Cam, this is wild"
"I know" I say closing my eyes.
"Well... think about it like this. There are now no more secrets. You all don't have anything to hide anymore. It's a fresh slate"

"I guess, I'm really tired so..."
"You're going to sleep out here?" she ask and I don't respond. "Right, let me know if you need anything Cam" she adds and I feel her walk away. I was exhausted, it was a long night, and it didn't take me long too fall asleep.
By the time I woke up it was light outside and I see a blurry figure sitting on the table in front of me. My eyes shoot open and I sit up to see Trevor. He was still in his suit but no jacket, no tie and the top of his shirt was unbutton. His eyes were dark like he hasn't gotten any sleep. He looks at me and I take a deep breath.
"Morning" he says and I stare at him.
"Why are you here?" I ask.
"Cam... I'm too tired for the bullshit"
"Then you should had went home... to your bedroom at your place" I said then look over at the door. "How'd you get in?"
"It was unlocked" he says and I roll my eyes.
"Where's my brother? You know what... don't answer that" I said getting up and walking to my bedroom. I go grab my pajamas and lay them on my bed as I get my towel and stuff to get ready to take a shower. Trevor walks in and closes my bedroom door and I look at him. "What are you doing?"
"I said I'm tired, I'm going to bed" he says taking off his shoes and shirt.
"Not here Trevor" I said as he walks up to me and grabs my hand. "Trevor stop" I said as he pulls me to the bed. "I fuckin broke up with you, we're not together" I argue and he continues to pull me to the bed. He lays down and pulls me down to lay with me and I try to fight out of his arms but he doesn't budge. I take a deep breath and decided to calm down.
"You done?" he ask.
"I told you last night... we're done"
"We didn't do anything to him Camari" Trevor says and I turn to look at him.
"You didn't?"
"Don't get it twisted... we would've still beaten his ass... if he ever showed up" he says and I stare at him. "Instead we just talked about everything" he says and although he had bags under his eyes, the blue was still pretty piercing.
"And?"
"We came to an understanding and an agreement"
"Which is?" I said and he leans forward to kiss me then pulls back.

"I'm tired" he said as he shuts his eyes. I stare at him for a minute as I watch him drift off in sleep. I then bite my lip and close my eyes, laying my head on his chest.
By the time we both work up, I look over to see it was rolling up two in the afternoon. I hear talking in the living room and I look over at Trevor. He was already looking at me and his face goes into a smile.
"Morning... again" he says.
"Morning?" I said as he kisses my neck. I hear Desi's voice and I sit up in bed. I go to change out my dress and hurry to slip on some shorts and a t-shirt. I know I looked like shit but it was a crazy night. I go open the door to see Desi and Breenan talking. "Hey" I said walking out and Breenan looks at me. His eyes travel behind me and I turn to see Trevor walking out my bedroom slipping his shirt back on. I shake my head and look back at Breenan.
"It's fuckin weird I ain't going to lie... but I'll get use to it" Breenan says and I cross my arms. Breenan stares at me then looks down. He holds a piece of paper that looked like a ticket then looks at us.
"What is that?" I ask.
"I got a flight back home" he says and I look at him confused.
"What?" Desi and I say at the same time.
"Yea... I need to freshen up... start over" he says.
"And you can't do that here?" I ask.
"He can but he's not" Trevor said and I stare at Breenan.
"Yea... after getting fired this morning, it made me realize how shitty I am" Breenan says.
"You're not shitty Bren" I said.
"I am... and I think we all do need a break from each other. All of us, to grow as individuals" he says.
"I thought mom said you had to look after me?" I joke and he smiles.
"Yea... looks like you already have someone to do that for you" Breenan says.
"When do you leave?" Desi ask.
"In about two hours, so I should head out" he says.
"Bye Breenan" Desi says going up to hug him. I laugh a little because I know Desi is in Heaven right now.
"You can let go now Desi" I said and we laugh.
"I mean if you want Breenan, I can come back with you, I'm feeling a little homesick" Desi says and I roll my eyes.
"I'll see you this Summer Desi" he says and she looks at me and I roll my eyes. I walk up to hug Breenan and he squeezes me. "Now on...we tell each other the truth... about everything" he says.
"Okay" I said and he looks at me. He looks at Trevor and they do a handshake then smile at each other.
"Good luck with everything" Trevor says.
"You too man" Breenan says. He looks at me then turns to the door. "Oh yea..." he starts then looks at us. "For the first time in my life I don't have the answers. I don't know what to do about Nico, Brianna and Tori. Better yet... what can we do?" he says and we stare at him as he shakes his head. "Well if something does happen or pop off... don't hit me up" he says and we laugh. "See ya'll this summer" he says leaving the dorm. I turn around and look at Trevor and he stares back at me.
"What?" he ask.
"You leaving too?" I ask and he rolls his eyes.
"Nah, I ain't leaving you no more" he says pulling me to him kissing my forehead.
"Trevor how didn't you get fired?" Desi says and we look at her.
"Uhhh Blake or Brianna... kinda saved my ass" he says.
"Of course she did" I roll my eyes. "Wait so you're going to stay there... while she's there?"
"Camari... I have bills to pay. I can't just up and quit" he says and I stare at him.
"And the software?" I ask.
"I get half"
"So you guys are... partners?"
"Camari..."
"If it's not one thing it's another. Trevor... she's so pyscho. Like where have you been? She hated you guys so much, she made it her life long mission to screw you guys"
"Cam.... Breenan and I already talked about it. The money will help with rent, I'll help Breenan and I can take care of you. It doesn't sound bad"
"Working with her does"
"It's not forever" he says kissing my cheek. "I'm going to go home, shower, then I say... we all get food"
"You paying?" Desi says and Trevor laughs.
"Yea I got you" he says and he looks at me. "I'll text you when I'm on my way"
"Okay" I said and he bends over to kiss me.
"Bye Desi" he says going to the door. I watch him leave then took a deep breath.
"I'm not trippin, right?" I said looking at Desi.

The 99th Divorce

Intimacy forbidden?” He raised his eyebrow. Who knew that after she got drunk one day, leaning on the headboard, he rested his deep-set eyes on her. “You broke the contract, Mrs, Li.”
