Genevieve takes a deep breath the look on her is like she trying to convince herself to speak. Finally she opens her mouth.

"C-Claudia"

I feel my jaw drop. Claudia. My ex. If you can really even call her that. Claudia and I used each other. I used her for sex and she used me for status and my money.

"Genevieve, Claudia is nothing to me. We are over. "

"Does she know that?"

"Genevieve..."

"Please leave Mr Cunningham" Gah! I hate it when she calls me by my last name! Letting my anger get the better of me I slam my fist on the desk. Genevieve flinches at me action. I scared her.

"I'm sorry" I say softly.

"It is ok. But I think... maybe we should keep our distance. I have had my heart broken enough in the last year to chance getting involved with my boss."

"You won't get involved with your boss but you will with a client"

She narrows her eyes at me. "Are you referring to Carter? The difference would be Mr Cunningham that he isn't involved with anyone else. I won't be your something on the side and I definitely won't be your rebound." She stands suddenly. "I'll be back later I'm going out to lunch"

"Can I join you?" I ask already knowing her answer.

"No" she says as she slams the door behind her.

...

I finish setting up the coffee table for my date when there is knock at the door. Honey is still in the bathroom, she has a date tonight too. I move to open the door. I swing it open and Brooke stares back at me. My gorgeous girlfriend.

"Hey babe" she greets me pressing a kiss to my cheek. She steps inside and I close the door. "Is Honey excited for her date?"

"Yes she is" Honey says stepping out of the bathroom. Brooke claps her hands together at her outfit. She is wearing one of those dresses that could be mistaken for swimwear by the way it hugs her body. "Brooke do you mind doing my hair?" Honey says holding up at straightening iron.

"Going all out?" I laugh knowing she never bothers straightening her hair.

"Shut up Bas" Brooke and Honey say in unison stepping into the bathroom.

I sit back on the couch and scroll through Netflix deciding on a movie for tonight. I opt for Guardians of the Galaxy adding it our queue. There is a knock at the door and Honey shouts from the bathroom. "Bas get the door!"

"Yeah, yeah" I open the door to find a guy I don't recognise. "Uh...hi you must be the date"

He laughs at me, "And you must be the brother"

"Bas" I say extending my hand.

"Carter" he says shaking my hand.

"Come in she is still getting ready."

"Do you have plans tonight?" Carter asks.

"Well once you get Honey out of here I'll get my girlfriend back"

"Oh shut up Bas" Brooke says stepping out of the bathroom. "She will be right out Mr Wells"

"Miss Williams? Please call me Carter"

"And I'm Brooke, Bas's girlfriend"

We sit in silence momentarily before Honey clears her throat. "I'm ready. Hi Carter"

"Honey you look gorgeous"

"Thanks" she takes his hand in her and leads him out the door. "Night Bas, night Brooke don't wait up"

...

Brooke and I are onto our second movie when there is knocking at the door.

"Do you think it is Honey?" Brooke asks.

"I don't know. Why don't you grab some ice-cream and I'll check"

The knocking turns into pounding and I soon realise it isn't Honey when I open the door Brooke's boss is staring back at me.

"Mr Cunningham?"

"Good evening Sebastian. Please call me Cameron"

"Ok Cameron well call me Bas 'cause Sebastian makes me feel like I'm in trouble. What can I do for you?"

"I came to talk to Genevieve" he says simply.

"Honey isn't here"

"Excuse me?"

"Mr Cunningham?" Brooke says from behind me.

"Good evening Miss Williams" he nods at her, "So where is Genevieve?"

"She is on a date" I reply if I'm not mistaken the guy actually looks saddened by the news. Does he have a thing for my sister?

"Who with?" his voice is a low angry growl.

Brooke answers for me, "Carter Wells"

I notice Cameron's breathing slow. He takes out his phone assuming to check the time. I think it must be around midnight. He slides it back in his pocket. "When do you expect her back?"

"Uh... I think her exact words were don't wait up but -" I say but Brooke interrupts me with an elbow to the ribs.

"Would you like to come in sir?" Brooke asks gesturing to my apartment. "I'll text her and see where she is"

Cameron says nothing but nods and moves passed us into the apartment. He looks around clearly judging the fact that we have just one open area with two beds, lounge, tv and kitchen. "Your place is..."

"Small" I offer and he offers back a small smile. Brooke heads to the kitchen bench to grab her phone and texts Honey.

Brooke sits down on the floor leaning back on my legs. "So I guess we just wait for her to reply" she says putting her phone down next to her.

"We were watching Bad Neighbours. Is that ok with you?" I ask Cameron.

"Uh yeah sure"

We watch for about ten minutes before I hear something outside the door. "That might be Honey I'll check"

Cameron gets up with me and heads to the door. I open the door to find Honey and Carter lip locked and I hear Cameron's breathing stop.
