Xander has been so distant lately, he wakes up early and live first thing, when he comes home it's so late that I'm already asleep. When we are in the office he only speaks to me about work and in a cold manner.
"Mia, come to my office please"- He calls me trough the intercom. I grabbed my pad and walked with my head held high, I'm not going to show him how he's affecting me.
"How can I help you, Sir?" - I ask him.
"Mother is coming today and want's to talk to us about setting up a date and a whole bunch of wedding stuff"- He says to me but not looking once in my direction, instead he is looking at some papers in the desk.
"Oh, you know what? I'm sorry, Sir but I already have something planned for tonight."- I said to him and turned around to walk out, he is not just going to ignore me and expect me to bend my head for him when ever he wants.
He snaps he's head up, and had the never to look pissed -"What plans, with who?" How come you haven't said anything to me?"- he asks.
"First of all it's none of your business and second you haven't spoken to me, correction you haven't talked to me about anything besides work, so you tell me, Xander Reed, how I'm I supposed to tell you anything. Now if you'll excuse me I have somewhere to go and be, and since my shift ended 5 minutes ago I'll be heading out."
I turned around to head out and once I'm at the door I feel Xander behind me. He grabs me by my arm and turns me around pinning me at the door. "You are going to tell me who are you meeting today." - he growls at me.
I look at him straight in to his eyes, "I'm going out with Michael, okay we are going to talk about everything that is going on, especially the part where my mom keeps calling him, and not me, gloating about how I'm engaged to a rich guy and dumped his good for nothing ass."
"The f**k you are."- he growls angrily.
I pushed him off. "Well, right now you have no right to tell me anything got that, Sir. I'm off the clock. Good-bye"- I walked out of his office, grabbed my things and speed walked to the elevator before he got out of his shock syndrome. Right before the door of the elevators closed he comes out of the office "Mia Louise Todd, don't you dare." but it was to late the doors were already closing.

Once I arrived at the restaurant where I was going to meet Michael he was already there waiting for me. "Mia"- he greets me with a big smile.
"Hello, Michael. How you been?" - I asked me coolly, it's hard to look at him when all I can remember was the bimbo jumping on him.
"I've tried to call you and talk to you about what happen between me and Rodney but you wouldn't talk to me. I'm really sorry about what you saw, but Mia it didn't mean anything I promise it was just a crazy one time decision that I made and regret so much." - He said to me and to be honest he does look like he is telling the truth but I'm just over him.
"Look Michael the only reason why I agreed to meet with you was to apologies for the way you found out about me and Xander and to explain to you that I was not with him while I was with you okay. It's just a complicated situation and I can't really explain right now. Also I want to say that I don't want you to keep calling me or texting, just stop please I really don't want nothing to do with you." - When I got up to leave he grabbed me forcefully and kissed me, I tried to push him away but he wouldn't budge so I bit him hard. When he let me go in pain I slapped him so hard that I left my hand print on his face.
"What the hell was that about, Michael? Stay the hell away from me and don't you ever come near me again, do you understand me? EVER.- I screamed at him not even caring that everyone at the restaurant was staring at us.
*********************************************************************************************
Walking into the penthouse I found Xander sitting in the living room drinking what looks like whiskey and looking at his phone. When he saw me the only thing he said was "Pack your s**t and get the f**k out of my house"- he growls at me.
"What? What the hell is wrong with you?"- I asked him in shock.
He shoved the phone in my chest and when I took it and looked at it, it was a photo of Michael and me kissing at the restaurant. "What the hell?"
"I can explain Xander, please let me explain, it's not what you think and it's definitely what it looks like."- I tried to tell him.
"I don't want to hear anything that you have to say. I wan't you out of my sight and out of my house, I already transferred to your account half of what we talked about. I think $500,000 will get you a place to live and some money left over for you to find a new job. When I come back I don't want to see you here."- he said to me and walked out of the penthouse leaving me there in total shock.
"What the f**k just happen? Who the f**k sent him that picture?" - I just stood there talking to myself.
