Jerome's POV

"No Cindy! I don't want your stupid models at my engagement party!" I spat at her. "It's my party too and I can invite whomever I want Jerome!" She spat too then walked away. "Fuck! You never listen to me! Why should I even marry you?" I sighed in frustration. "What did you just say?" She returned folding her arms. I just realized what I said. "Am going out!" I ran away from the argument and called up my crew to crash a bar. I sat over at the counter and had about 5 tequila shots with Blake, Anthony, Nathan and Tony. They were all my best friends since college. Nathan and Tony were famous footballers, Anthony was my rival company and Blake is my personal aid. "So why are you even marrying her if you don't love her?" Blake finally asked. "I do love her" I admitted. "I just don't feel the same as I felt when I was with..." "Becca, glad you could come" Blake interrupted me. I looked up to see Becca making out with my best friend. What the fuck is going on? "Becca, these are my best buddies. Best buddies, this is my fiancé, Rebecca Sterling." He beamed as he said 'fiancé'. I am the only one supposed to call her Becca! I gave her that pet name. "What? Fiancé? When did that happen?" I asked getting tense. "Remember when he asked us to shower his house with rose petals and you were busy with... Cindy" Nathan and Tony laughed. They were the only ones who knew that I was engaged to Becca five years ago since they helped with my proposal. I nearly had a seizure or worse a heart attack. She moved on! What the fuck was I thinking? I give up now! "So you guys did that? It was so beautiful" Becca eyes got moist and Blake embraced her. Traitor! For some reason, I just wanted to end our friendship and fire his ass right here, right now but that would only prove that I was envious. Why should I be jealous when I already have a smoking hot fiancé... At home probably packing her things to leave me while I speak. Fuck! I screwed up big time. The bar got too suffocating so I stepped outside to have a cigarette. I inhaled the carbon dioxide and it was soothing. I exhaled the toxic air and my depression oozes along out with it. "Well you look delightful" The familiar voice disturbed my moment. I ignored her sarcasm and continued blowing smoke. "If you ever get in the way of my career again, I will gut you! Like a rabbit" She threatened. I laughed until my eyes were moist. "You think you intimidate me?" I smirked. Her boldness began to drain. She looks so defenseless. "Why did you do it?" She sounded really distraught. "It made you call me didn't it?" I suggested. "I know how much you like to mess with me, but I never thought you would stoop so low to see me fail. You don't want me to strive?" She half shouted. "You will thank me in the end." I said then stomped on my burnt out cigarette then went away. When I reached home I expected to see my room clear of Cindy's belongings. But every one of her stuffs were in its usual place except for her. I couldn't' find her. I headed to the pool house and I saw her there floating lifeless in the water. I dived into the Jacuzzi. I swam towards her but she was alive. "You scared me. I thought you drowned" I spat and she threw her arms around me and kissed me. I ran my hands up and down her body until I slipped off her bikini and she removed my drenched clothing. "I want it here" She whispered as she sucked unto my neck like a vampire. I imagined she was Becca. I did Cindy the way I would have done Becca if her dad didn't take her away; Have passionate romantic sex all day and all night.
