Roger stood there for a moment appraising the situation. Her hair was really a mess and she looked upset. She must have been with someone. A man. Did she fuck him? Her hair looked like it. He was furious as he went back into his apartment. This wasn’t part of his plan. He was supposed to be the one fucking her. Damn it. How could she do this to him? One way or another, he would get his way eventually. He always did. He may have to punish her for cheating on him like this.

Mitch and Charlie were wrapped in each other’s arms on the sofa, watching a movie. They both looked surprised as Kate closed the door behind her. Mitch paused the movie and Charlie got the lights. “You’re home early. What happened? I didn’t expect to see you before we went to bed,” Charlie said, seeing that Kate’s make-up was streaked.

“You’ve been crying. Do you want me to go over there and kick his ass?” Mitch asked.

She let out a heavy sigh like she had carried a boulder up the stairs and all of her strength was gone. “No,” she said, shaking her head. She sat down and told them the whole story of her evening with Neil. Almost every detail.

“Oh, Kate, I know that you are upset, but is it really so bad that he knows about David? You were going to have to tell him eventually,” Charlie said.

“I know.” She let out another sigh. “I just wasn’t ready to discuss my past with him yet.”

“The question now is what do you want?” Mitch asked. “It sounds like he is really into you. You obviously have some feelings for him, or you wouldn’t have slept with him.”

“You both make good points. I was just so overwhelmed by the sex and him bringing up David. I reacted. I couldn’t help myself.”

Kate’s phone lit up with a text from Neil.

Neil Statton: r u ok? r u home? respond or I will come look for u. <end text message>

What? Is he crazy?.

Kate Simmons: i’m fine. at home. <end text message>

Then Kate turned her phone off. She didn’t want any more correspondence between them tonight. Charlie looked at her with her eyebrows raised.

“That was Neil checking up on me to make sure that I got home all right,” she said, rolling her eyes. “I have a lot to think about.”

“Okay, he’s more than into you,” Mitch said. “He wouldn’t be texting you right now if all he wanted was sex. He sounds like a stand-up kind of guy. If you want my two cents, I think you need to give him another chance. It sounds like he stumbled upon the info from Natalie. I don’t think he was grilling her to find out about your past.”

“You might be right, Mitch. I’ll talk to Nat at work tomorrow. We open together. Thanks for the good advice. I need to sleep on this. Good night, you two.”

She got up from the love seat and headed to her room.
