I came downstairs and saw Trinity waiting for me at the desk. I grinned, knowing that if anyone could cheer me up, it would be her.

"Hey Tri! I thought you'd be home with Nikko by now."

"I was going to, but Bill kept Mr busy."

"Do I need to smack him? I will. I'll kick his arse all the way down the block!"

"No no. That's not necessary. Seems as though we were wrong."

"Huh?"

"He's not interested in me."

"He's gay? Oh. Well then I won't have to hit him."

"No. Not exactly. I know I told you to give Mr. Wright a chance, but he's your boss and I know how you feel about that. Bill actually likes you and wants to take you out. Maybe it's a good idea. Help Mr. Wright get over you, without having to crush him."

"There's nothing for him to get over. He doesn't like me. He was just drunk."

"Oh well then great!"

"Tri, you don't understand. I was starting to listen to you. I was gonna give him a shot. I was imagining us as a couple, and it wasn't so bad. He doesn't like me, and I'm kinda sad about it."

"Aw. Liv, don't be. It's his loss. You're perfect. You're gorgeous, brilliant, funny, and amazing. There's thousands of guys waiting in line to show you that. Bill is one of them. What else can you do but show Mr. Wright what he lost? Don't mope around! Get out! Have fun! It doesn't have to be serious. Just give other guys a chance."

"Why are you always right?"

"It's a gift. Bill went home, but I have his number. So is it a yes or a no?"

"Yes. What do I have to lose?"

"Yay! I'll tell him later. Nikko is in the car waiting and I think he had a bad day. I'll text you later with Bill's number!"

"Okay. Thanks, Tri. You always look out for me."

"Of course, doll."

Maybe I'll have a good time with Bill, but right now all I can think about is Mr. Wright. Hopefully I can forget about him soon.

I walked out of the building, and headed to the car. I see Nikko sitting in the driver's seat with his arms crossed and an angry expression on his face.

"Babe, what's wrong?"

"Nothing. Is that guy the one who always bothers you?"

"Yeah. Why?"

"Oh nothing."

We sat in silence until we got home. I changed into pajamas, but Nikko just sat on the couch. I sat next to him, and tried to talk to him.

"What's wrong?"

"Oh nothing. I mean every guy is totally cool with his girlfriend hugging guys who constantly hit on them."

"Bill doesn't constantly hit on me?"

"Really? Calling you babe, hugging you, and staring at you all the time is just being friendly?"

"He's not always staring at me!"

"Really? Whenever I pick you up for lunch and you and Liv walk out together his eyes aren't to himself!"

"Are you serious right now?"

"Yeah. Why wouldn't I be? My girlfriend is just being shady."

"Oh hell no! You think there's something going on between Bill and I?"

"You guys were pretty close, you had something to do for him which seemed pretty secretive, and he's calling you babe and hanging all over you! If there's something going on just tell me!"

"I can't believe you don't trust me!"

"You're not giving me much to trust!"

"Seriously? That's it! You're sleeping on the couch tonight!"

"That's fine. Make room for Bill!"

"Would you cut the crap?"

Just then, my phone went off.

What did she say?

She said yes. She's pretty upset from her past situation , so please be gentle and try not to overwhelm her with full on Bill just yet. Let me forward you her number.

I totally owe you one! Thanks so much, Babe!

No problem. Hurt her, and I kill you.

Point taken, babe. Thanks again.

I looked up to see a very annoyed Nikko. I was getting this close to throwing him out.

"Seriously? Olivia can't wait like 5 minutes?"

"It's not Olivia!"

"Let me guess, it's Bill!"

"Yes it is!"

"That's it! I'm done. If you wanna cheat on me, we're over."

"I never cheated on you , dumbass. If you would let --"

"You never cheated on me, but that doesn't mean you haven't thought about it!"

"Let me finish my sentence! I've never cheated on you! I was doing Bill a favor."

"Like what?"

"Getting him a date with Liv!"

"What?"

"Yeah when he would stare, it wouldn't be at me! It would be at the girl next to me, Olivia! I just gave Bill her number!"

"Babe, I'm so sorry."

"Don't you dare 'babe' me! You didn't trust me!"

"It looked pretty bad. I'm sorry babe."

"It's gonna take a lot more than sorry to fix this. Have fun on the couch tonight!"

"Babe --"

"Goodnight!"

I can't believe Nikko could act like this. I would never cheat on him in a million years. He should know this. Instead he didn't trust me, and almost dumped me. I won't put up with that attitude of his. Maybe I should ask Olivia about what to do. I love Nikko, even though we've never said it, but I won't deal with someone who doesn't trust me.
