“Now,” she snapped.

My eyes widened at her tone, and Maddox tensed. “You

don’t get to come here and make demands. I’m not your

boy toy, Bianca.”

She tapped her foot, impatiently. “You owe me a better

explanation for breaking up with me, Maddox.”

Maddox rubbed his eyes and slurred a bit as he spoke, “I

don’t owe you shit. And we were never together in the first

place. We fucked, that’s it.”

The distaste was clear on her face as she gave me a

nasty look. “It’s because of her, isn’t it? You’re choosing

her?” Bianca said in a shrill voice, pointing an accusing

finger at me.

Here we go again.

Another ‘girlfriend,’ same drama.

Maddox growled low in his throat, the sound so

threatening even I winced. “Listen–”

My phone rang, breaking through the tension, and

Maddox stopped mid-sentence. I gave him a sheepish look

and slid out of the booth, phone to my ear.

I walked away from Maddox and Bianca as they

continued arguing with each other.

“Hey, Bea?” I answered the call.

“Lila, shit. We’re in trouble,” she gasped.

“What? What is it? What happened?” I strode out of the

club since it was too loud to hear anything Bea was saying

over the phone.

Bea was a professional dancer, and my chorographer of

the dance club at Harvard. Two years ago, I joined the club

as a hobby and soon realized that I enjoyed dancing. It was

therapeutic.

I wasn’t the best dancer, but I also wasn’t too bad. In

between my studying and waitressing part-time, I needed

something to do to relax and just unwind. Dancing seemed

to do that for me.
