It had been a few days since Brea's suprise birthday lunch and things couldn't have been better for the blonde. Since quite a few of her friends were in town, she had been catching up with them and her younger brother was at her house almost everyday.

Meanwhile Emma and Maisel were a little squeamish because they were counting down the minutes until Tobias would make an appearance. It was only a matter of time before he would show his face.

They tried to keep their minds of it but Braelynn had been noticing how her friends had been acting, she was getting worried.

Hopefully what she had been planning for her roommates, brother, Robert and Scarlet who would hopefully be joining them.

There was a Craft and Food market happening in the afternoon. She had told them to be ready by 11:30.

She had dressed in a black turtleneck, mom jeans, black doc martens, beige trench coat and a silver butterfly necklace robert had gotten her for a premiere present for Goblet of fire, the first movie they had worked on together.

She twirled it in between her fingers before taking out her Dutch braids she had done the night before and brushed her hair a bit before putting on some light make up, sprayed some perfume on and put on some flat rose gold stud earrings.

Her friends had been waiting in the living room whispering to themselves.

She wore a puzzled look as she watched her friends deep in a conversation.

"Uhhh guys...we need to go." Brea told them after clearing her throat to gain their attention.

"Yeah sure let's go." Emma said as she took her purse, Brea did the same as she walked over to the coat hanger by the front door and got her mustard crossbody bag.

Maisel locked the door as her roommates walked to the car. Brea got into the driver seat as the other two got in.

Once on the road kept her eyes on the road Brea kept on asking herself why her friends were acting like this so she decided to ask.

"Hey guys, what's going on with you two?"

"Nothing. Why?" Maisel answered bluntly, now Brea knew something was wrong.

"You guys are acting strange, eversince we went shopping for the lunch."

"Nothing's wrong...why...would...hehe...why would anything be wrong?" Emma stuttered nervously.

"Okay...sure." Brea responded, not sounding convinced.

They drove for 10 more minutes until they reached the market place. Brea spotted Scarlet, Robert and Caspian waited by the entrance. They were smiling despite wearing masks.

The trio put on their masks before leaving the car before walking up to them. After greetings were exchanged, the group of five walked into the market.

Brea stuck with Robert most of the time. The two had been engrossed in their own conversation that they didn't realize that they had trailed away from the rest of the group.

With their arms linked they laughed as they walked through the small crowd. 

"The other day, Ally and Maurice almost broke out into a fight over a spot, I literally had to separate them. I don't even know why they almost went full on Darth Vader on eachother." She laughed as they walked past some stalls.

"That is some story darling but I must ask where was Oswald throughout all of this?" Robert asked his friend.

"Oh he was sleeping, he slept throughout all the noise, everything. It was honesty hilarious watching him lie there." She chuckled.

"I miss those pups." Robert whined.

"You literally saw them two days ago."

"Yeah but they're adorable. They grew up so quickly. I swear they were only tiny puppy's days ago and now they're having fights with cats." He responded making the girl laugh, he enjoyed the sound of her laugh.

"The irony..." Brea trailed off as she left Robert's link and wandered over to this one stall that was selling these cute accessories for animals. "Oh my word these are adorable. Robert look at these." Brea beamed as she held up this small elf hat that looked like it could fit the head of a cat.

"They would look amazing on Ally and these on Oswald and Maurice." Robert said as he held up identical hats for dogs.

"I am absolutely getting some of these." Brea said as she took out some cash from her purse and handed it to the woman who put her chosen hats into a small brown paper bag. "Thank you, these are all adorable." Brea told the woman with a smile before linking arms with Robert and continuing on their path.

They kept on talking and laughing together until Robert's excitement was drawn to another stall.

"Brea, I see something you like." He sang at the end before pointing at a stall that was selling small jars of candy and toffee.

"Oh my word...Yes. Aah you even have the fizzers and eclairs. I'll take two jars of fizzers and eclairs and 10 packs of toffee." She asked as she got out her cash and handed it to the couple.

As you can tell Braelynn had a sweet tooth and it was most certainly craving something.

She noticed an address on the banner that wasn't to far from her home and she quickly took note of it.

"Thank you." She told the couple who smiled at the two on the other side of their stall, they could see the love that the two celebrities had for eachother.

The two continued walking until they met up the rest of the group.

"Hey you guys wandered off, you all okay?" Caspian asked the duo.

"Never better why?" Robert asked.

"No reason, how about we get some food." Emma offered to them, who agreed and followed her to the centre of the market that had some benches and food trucks circling.

They sat down at a bench and started thinking about what to eat. Caspian suggested some tacos and milkshakes.

After each and every one of them had stuffed their faces with their desired food and drinks, Brea offered to take the trash to the dustbin.

As she gathered the paper cups and empty cans and milkshake cups. Her friends offered to help but she insisted that she was okay. 

She kind of struggled with the amount of trash she held in her arms but she managed. As she sorted them into the right recycling bins, someone walked up and stood behind her.

"You always cared about using the right trash cans." The last cans in her hands clattered onto the ground as she could hear the thumping sounds of her heart in her ears.

"You look really good, healthy." He stammered as she quickly picked up the fallen cans.

"Get away from me!" She said as she shoved her way past him.

"Brea please, listen to me."

"No! Stay away."

"Brea, listen can we just talk for 1 minute, please." The taller man begged.

"One minute? One minute!? That's hilarious." She let out a heart wrenching laugh. "You want me to give you a minute of my time. I gave you years of my God damn time, which were all for nothing after that day last year!"

"I know and I'm sorry, just give me a chance, one more chance. I am begging you please."

"You know how I was that week. That week of all weeks! I chose to spend that time that I could've used to be mourning and spending time with my family, to plan our wedding." She exclaimed and tears pooled in her eyes. "I thought it would be worth it because I thought I would be marrying the love of my life."

"I'm sorry just let me explain-" he pleaded as he reached his hand up to her face to wipe away the tears, but she back away.

Back at the bench, her friends and brother had been wondering what was taking her so long, that was until Caspian looked around the area of grass where other people were sitting and his eyes landed on the former couple.

"That bastard!" Caspian roared before leaping out of his seat.

"Casp- oh God." Scarlet said as she followed the brunette, the rest did too.

"When I get my hands on him." Caspian sneered before Scarlet caught up with him.

"She needs to do this." Scarlet insisted as she held him back.

Her friends had stood at a safe distance watching the two bicker...well actually Brea was doing something she as well as no one expected to do, she was yelling and shouting at him.

The other people there had diverted their attention to the former couple but none of them were prepared for what Braelynn would say next.

"Explain? Explain! What is there to explain? YOU CHEATED ON ME!" She cried as she poked his chest repeatedly, earning gasps from the civilians around them.

"Brea people are watching..." he whispered.

"Really Tobias? Now you care what people are going to say, I have been called horrible things the past year, been given death threats. So when it comes to you, that's when you start caring. Here you are saying that you care about me but for the past year you haven't said anything to stop the rumors, accusations. Let them record, share, tweet Instagram it because i have been wanting to for along time." she yelled as she quickly wiped away another tear.

"You don't care about me at all. You didn't care that my career was almost destroyed, you didn't care about how I felt this past year for heaven sake it has taken a God damn pandemic for you to talk to me." She took another deep breathe.

"You didn't care that you would cheat on me 2 days before the 10 year anniversary of my fathers death. I watched my father died when I was 19, the rest of my siblings didn't get to grow up with a father. My mother was never the same, I was never the same. That day just proved to me that you are one selfish jerk who doesn't give a damn about anyone else but himself. Don't you ever come near me or my friends ever again. If you do my lawyers will talk to yours." She finished before storming off, making her way through the crowd with her friends closely behind her calling out for her.

Caspian reached her first despite her moving quickly he managed to make it and pulled her into a hug. She didn't hug back for a second before slowly snaking her arms around his waste and pulled her closer, since he was taller than her, he rested his chin on top of her head. She let out a shaky breathe before crying into his chest.

"Shh, shh it's okay. Let it all out. It's okay sis." He cooed as he gently rubbed her back.

Unaware to Brea but not surprisingly, the video of her and Tobias had been spread across the internet in only a matter of seconds.
