Jess stood up hesitantly from the chair and walked towards me, but Nate stood up as well. "Who do you think you are?!" He yelled in anger as he stalked towards me.

Caspian suddenly stood up from his chair and stopped Nate with a hand on his chest. "I wouldn't take another step near him, mate," he threatened in a cold voice I hoped to never be on the receiving end of. Nate staggered back at his words and sat back in his seat. I had to admit I would've loved to see Caspian beat his ass but right now wasn't the time.

Jess was being rude to them for no damn reason and my blood was boiling. I grabbed Jess's hand and led her to a corridor to search for a place to talk to her. Seeing no other alternative I walked into the empty women's restroom and closed the door behind us. Thankfully, it was in pristine condition.

"What the fuck is your problem?" I hissed.

"I don't have a problem," she said, crossing her arms.

"You clearly do. I've never seen you be as much of a bitch as you were tonight."

"A bitch?" She yelled. "Who are you and where is Xavier?"

"Oh please, like you truly know me. You just saw a version of me that fit the role of whatever fucked up life you envision for yourself."

A flicker of hurt passed her eyes and she shook her head at me. "You're being an asshole."

"And you're not? You're nice to everyone yet tonight you treat Cleo and Caspian like shit-you acted like some jealous ex!"

"Jealous?" She scoffed in shock. "Jealous of what?"

"Fuck if I know."

"I have nothing to be jealous of. I don't want you."

"Okay, Jessica," I said with an unbelieving nod.

"You have nothing to offer me. You're practically a kid."

"Okay."

"And then this shit you pull tonight, you're more immature than I initially believed," she muttered in a disappointed tone.

"What shit did I pull?"

"Bringing not one but two dates tonight?! Was it to spite me?" She yelled in question.

"Not everything is about you, Jess."

"We both know that's not true for you," she spat. "You literally cater to my every need, Xavier. You don't think I noticed how you followed me around like a lost puppy?"

"You knew all along?"

"I'm not a fucking idiot. Of course I knew."

"So all those times that you 'accidentally' flirted with me or entertained me...you knew?"

She sighed and leaned back against the marble counter. "It wasn't fair to you, but I was lonely with Nate not being here. All the attention you were giving me..."

I massaged my temples as I leaned my head back. This entire time she knew I liked her, she just lead me on for her own entertainment. "Get out."

"But-"

"Leave!" I seethed. She flinched at my voice as her eyes became watery and she raced ran out of the bathroom, leaving me alone to bask in my pain. I walked to the mirror and looked at myself as I took a few deep breaths. I should've known.

"Hey," a voice said softly. I looked in the mirror to see Cleo standing at the door.

"You heard all that?" I asked as I set my hands down on the counter and looked into the sink. I wished that I could wash away every single thing I had ever felt for Jess, but life would never be that kind.

"Only a bit."

I shook my head and let Jess' words pass through my mind once again. This would be the second time she completely fucked me up. The clicking of Cleo's heels neared me and I felt her arms reach around my waist as she placed herself between me and the sink. "Deep breaths."

I followed her words with my eyes closed, and when I finally relaxed, I looked down at her. Her arms remained wrapped around me as her chin rested on my chest, her dark eyes studying me with concern creasing her features.

"I'm sorry about tonight. If I had any idea that was going to happen I-"

"Don't worry. We're glad we came to see you. Even if a judgmental pregnant lady threw a temper tantrum," she teased.

"Your job shouldn't have been used against you."

"It's alright. I'm used to it by now, but I love my job...so fuck everybody." She shrugged.

"Why was I not invited to this?" Caspian asked dramatically as he burst into the restroom.

"We're having a moment," Cleo said.

"And I can't join said moment?" Caspian asked feigning hurt.

"Ask Xavier," Cleo said as she laid her head against my chest and looked at him.

With a sigh. Caspian raised his eyes to mine. "Xavier, may-"

"Sure." I wasn't in the mood to play hard to get and I honestly just wanted hugs. Caspian smiled as if he knew I was going to say yes and he walked over to us. He placed himself behind Cleo and wrapped his arms around me. Cleo groaned as we sandwiched her between us and after a few attempts to get out she gave up and relaxed between us.

"Enjoy this. I'm not a hugger," Caspian said.

"Yeah, whatever," Cleo mumbled from between us. I let myself relax into the hug and my anger dissipated. "This position right here?... It brings back memories."

"And moment over." Caspian pulled away.

"What'd I do?" She whined as she let go of me and pouted. I laughed softly at the couple and shook my head.

Caspian sauntered into the space around us and looked around the bathroom with quiet and studious nods. After a few moments, he tapped his chin and looked at us. "You know," he started. "I've never had sex in a bathroom of a restaurant before."

Cleo and I both looked at him and he smirked mischievously. "And today won't be the day you start," she said as he pointed at him.

"Tsk tsk tsk Cleo, after all these years when will you realize that I always get what I want?" he teased as he walked towards her slowly, like some animal cornering their prey.

She stepped back with each step he took forward and ended up with her back pressed against mine. My cock stiffened at the feel of her soft body and she looked up at me eyes wide.
"I am too classy, to fuck in the bathroom," she blurted out as she moved her blue hair out of her face.

Caspian positioned himself in front of us and looked down at her. "Hm. Let's have a vote shall we?" Cleo looked between us wide-eyed and her mouth dropped as she saw the smirk on my lips. "All in favor, say I," he said as his lips traveled to her neck. "I."

"Nay." She giggled. I let my hands move to the hem of her dress and she smiled at me as I lifted it slightly.

"You're the tie-breaker," Caspian said in a husky tone as he looked up at me.

Without any thought to the next words coming out of my mouth, I smiled. "I."

"So I'm being ganged up on?" Cleo asked, trying to hold back a moan. Caspian continued nipping at her neck as I brought my hand between her legs and pushed aside her panties.

"You could always say stop," I whispered into her ear.

She shivered against my body as I circled her clit. "I-," She began weakly.

"You what?" Caspian whispered as he unzipped the front of her dress. His lips moved to her exposed breasts and I grew ten times harder than I already was.

"They'll hear us," she whispered.

"Then be quiet," I said. She threw her head back against my chest and bit her lip to try to stifle a moan as her eyes fluttered. Taking this as permission I slid a finger inside of her, slowly pumping it in and out of her wet and tight entrance.

"Cleo, sweetheart," Caspian said with a smirk. "You need to speak to us."

"Please..." she mumbled.

"Please what?" I asked as I slipped in another finger.

"Fuck me."

Caspian chuckled softly as he lowered his pants and pumped his rigid member. "Suck it," he commanded sharply. Cleo lowered herself to his pulsating crotch and wrapped her hand around him as she took him into her mouth. He let out a long exhale and threw his head back as he held her hair to control her movements.

"Well Xavier, she asked you to do something," he said in a breathy tone.

I smirked at him and grabbed her hips which were firmly planted against me. Lifting her tight dress, her red lace panties were exposed to me and my dick twitched at the sight. If I didn't get inside her soon, I was sure I'd lose it. I unzipped my pants and wrapped my hand around my dick and brought it to her warm soaking core.

"Hold on to Caspian, love," I said to her as I looked into his eyes. He glanced down at my cock and then back at me, a small smile tugging at the corner of his lips. Cleo moaned as he thrust into her mouth, but she followed my instructions and steadied herself against him.

Taking that as my signal, I slowly slid into her, stretching her tight walls. Her cries went muffled as Caspian grabbed a fistful of her hair and went in and out of her. My slow and gentle thrusts soon grew into fast and rough ones and I pounded into her. Caspian's eyes remained on my movements as his eyes glazed over in unshielded desire.

I winked at him and brought my attention back to Cleo who was writhing between us. I slowed down my movements and lowered a bit to see her. Her mascara was streaming down her cheeks and her eyes were shut. I moved the hair that was on her face and she opened her eyes to meet mine.

"You alright?" I asked sweetly.

Rolling her eyes, she raised her middle finger to me and I scoffed as I stood back up to finish what I had started. Her walls around my dick began clenching and I knew she was close as I was right along with her.

"Come with me," I said in a shaky breath. Caspian gave me a lazy smile as his eyes closed and he let out a groan. Cleo moaned loudly as she climaxed, gripping Caspian's leg and I let myself release with a sensual grunt.

I pulled myself out of Cleo after a moment but kept an arm firmly planted around her so she wouldn't fall. Caspian took her from my arms and lifted her onto the bathroom counter as I grabbed a few paper towels to clean myself.

"There you go, darling," he said with a smug smile, earning a glare from her as she caught her breath.

"Don't you think you both were a bit rough with me?" Cleo crossed her arms. Caspian wet a paper towel and brought it between her legs as he laughed softly. He wiped away the mess we had created and tossed the napkin in the trash.

"You seemed to enjoy it. If I remember correctly," I said as I gave her a peck on her cheek.

She glanced away from me shyly and I smiled at her. Suddenly her eyes widened and she sat up immediately. "I need to pee." She jumped off the counter and stood on wobbly legs and Caspian and I looked at each other, sharing a moment of proudness.

"Luckily for you, we are in a bathroom," he said grandly as he gestured around the restroom. Cleo smacked him with one arm as she used the counter to help herself stand.

"I got you," I said, lifting her from the floor bridal style and taking her to a stall. I helped her stand as she gave me a sweet smile and bit her lip.

"Thank you," she said in a nervous tone.

I nodded slowly at her and tilted my head. "Do you also need help sitting or...?" Before I could finish her smile dropped and she closed the door in my face. I chuckled at her actions and turned back to face Caspian who looked as if everything we just did didn't happen. He looked at me through the mirror and winked at me. I walked over to the mirror beside him and began fixing my appearance, starting with my unbuttoned pants.

I felt Caspian's eyes on me as I collected myself and I smiled inwardly. Licking my lips I looked back at him and raised my brow. "What are you look-"

He pushed me against a nearby wall and planted his lips on mine. His hands roamed my body relentlessly and I kissed him back. Luckily for me, I didn't have to bend down to kiss Caspian as we were around the same height. His kiss became rough in contrast to his soft lips and I tugged his short hair in an effort to remind him who was in charge. Noticing my gesture, he wrapped his hand around my neck and pushed me against the wall.

"Tsk tsk tsk," he warned me, his eyes lingering on my lips.
I scoffed at him and pushed him away from me. He needed to realize that I wasn't easily made submissive, not by him- not by anyone. As if I was a challenge he nodded at me with his signature smirk and I returned it.

"So you guys are just ending it like that?" Cleo pouted. We both snapped our heads at her noticing that she was done and she crossed her arms at us. "It was just getting hot."

Caspian walked towards her and took her hand. "There's time for that, my love, but I'm afraid that there are more dire circumstances in front of us."

I chuckled at his comment and she looked between us in confusion. "What 'dire circumstances'?" she mocked his accent.

I pointed to the mirror and she jumped when she saw herself. "Oh dear, God," she muttered. Stained mascara was running down her cheeks and her previously flawless makeup was almost wiped from her face. "Can one of you bring my purse?" she requested, shielding her face from us. I tilted her chin up towards me and gave her a small kiss on the lips to relax her.

"I'll get it," I whispered. That earned one of her beautiful smiles and I stepped away from her.

"Do I get a kiss?" Caspian asked.

"You already got one!" I yelled over my shoulder as I left the restroom. I took a deep breath as I walked back into the restaurant-hoping, that they heard nothing that just happened.

When I walked back into the room, everyone's heads moved in my direction. I smiled nervously as I looked around the room for Cleo's bag. Syn snapped a couple of times and I looked at him. He pointed to a corner in the room and raised his brow at me. "Her purse is right there."

My eyes widened and Queen giggled into his neck as Gen tried to stifle a laugh. Jess was just looking down at her hands with Nate by her side and Xyla and Felix were giving me disgusted looks.

"You all..." I said as I pointed to everyone. "You all heard nothing. Am I clear?"

Syn glanced around the table and then back up at me. "Crystal."
