"Jamie I don't think is a very good idea to just sit here waiting." Lenora informed, looking around for reporters or angry fans. The house was already in a pretty sorry state and any moment now the next batch of hurt and angry people seeking justice would be coming by. Weather he like it or not he stayed with her in her apartment. He couldn't access his account meaning he couldn't get a hotel or literally anything. So he didn't really have a choice.

But it was anything but pleasant, who knew Jamie could be this unpleasant to be with? He was moody and annoyed most of the time. Always brooding and dull, worse of all he somehow managed to blame her for everything. How he managed to conclude it form her story she did not understand.

​​

"You can go if you want to." He said curtly.

"I can't just leave you here, you don't know the way back." She replied.

He glared at her, sending chills down her spine. "I was pretty attentive on the way here I don't need your help." He stated bluntly. "So it would even be better if you just walk away already." He said in a less than friendly tone.

Lenora shut her eyes, fisted her plans and let out a heavy sigh. If she lashed out she might just push him back to Susan. Even though it was hard right now at least he was with her.

He already walked forward and sat in front of her gate, looking all manners of attractive.

You can do this Lenora. She encouraged herself and went to sit down behind him. " He said.

Before he spoke and she felt the weight of his gaze on her she explained. "I'm not here because of you, I thought about it and I'm still a reporter. If I was looking for the actress I would start here. Besides I have a curiosity to feed."

He scoffed and scooted away from her, "suit yourself."

"He said what?" Tony asked.

"It was so strange" Jessie replied. "He some how felt different, I always knew that there was more to Jonathan but that was pretty intense."

Tony nodded for her to go on, and she did. "He said he knows his brother likes me, and he knows I know that he likes me." She started. "And I already told I was caught in my deceit, so that already was him having an upper hand. I just really didn't have words." She said.

"Why would you even lie like that?" Tony asked.

"I didn't think he would hear, besides I've had to start using such underhanded techniques to get my way with Jason. Ugh... both brothers are making my already difficult life even more difficult!" She huffed.

Tony sighed. "I'm at least happy to see you worrying about problems you should be worrying about."

"How is being trapped in the middle of two very opinionated and dominant Alpha males a problem I should be worrying about? I'm sure you know more than anything I hate love triangles." She frowned.

"So what? Are you torn between them?" He asked, it seemed that's all he did.

"No." She blurted immediately, realising her mistake when Tony cocked a brow. She covered her mouth and shook her head. "I don't have time to think about such things right now. My life is in too much of a mess."

Tony laughed mockingly. "Yeah right."

**************************************************

'I told you so' was in order but she couldn't dare say it. So she just allowed the sulking man sulk into her apartment. She pulled off her heeled sandals and shimied her small feet into comfortable flip flops. Pulling the door close when she felt a resistance, her hair whipped around and her gaze fell on a brown haired petite woman.

"Susan?" She asked, confusion etched all over her features.

"Where is he?" She spat, ignoring Lenora and looking inside.

Lenora followed her line of sight and shut the door behind her coming to stand in front of the woman, looking straight into her eyes. When she realised the height difference unconsciously her eyes went to her heels then back to her face.

"What do you mean?" Lenora asked.

"Don't lie, I saw him come in here. I saw both of you come in here." She said.

"I wasn't trying to lie, yes Jamie is in my apartment right now. He uses my towels, sleeps in my bed and eats my food. Why is that you business?" Lenora said with a look of disgust on her face.

Susan nostrils flared and before Lenora could react her face was already burning and possibly bruised. Again before she could react her head yanked back in an uncommon angle, as she felt strands of her hair leave her head.

"Are you mad?!!" Lenora shrieked.

"Yes! Yes I'm mad! I can't believe he still went back to you!" Susan screamed.

Lenora grabbed her hair as well and use her long nails to scrape across her scalp before yanked a fist full.

"Ahh!" Susan screamed. "Let go!"

"You let go!" She retorted.

Tears bit her eyes but she refused to cry them, unlike Susan that was already a blubeering mess. "How could he come back to such a toxic person like you? How could he ...? I didn't even ask him to stay with me but you are just poison to him." She spat.

Each word cutting in to Lenora as she already had the thoughts in her subconscious mind. Ofcourse she did, she was stil human. She kept pushing them away. But now Susan said it, it made her feel extremely pathetic and selfish. And she was, she was all those things she already knew. And it already hurt her so much, that was why she refused to give up on Jamie. Even though she hurt him so much he was the only one that saw her pain and understood her struggle.

"Fine, fine I agree I'm toxic for Jamie, let go!" She yelled.

"You let go!" Susan screamed.

"Fine on three, we'll both let go." Lenora suggested. "Deal?"

"Fine deal." Susan agreed.

"One." Lenora started.

"Two." Susan continued.

"Three!" They both said together but at the end of the day one person was still yelping in pain.

"You bitch! Let go of my hair!" Susan yelled.

"No." Lenora said with a straight face. "You think you can come to my house and spout any manner of rubbish and I'll take it? Who are you to say what Jamie needs or wants? Who the hell do you think you are to poke your nose in other people's business?!" She yelled yanking on her hair.

"Ahh! You physco, I'll kill you!" Susan screamed.

"What the hell is going on here?" A calm voice came from behind them. Both women turned around to see a shirtless, towel clad and still dripping ex cop glaring at them with boredom etched all over his features.
