"Adrienne!", an overly excited Omar came to greet me as I entered the 2Strong headquarters.

"Hey, Omar. How ya been ?"

"Great...a little bored but great. I honestly didn't realize how nice it was to have you here until now. The guys here wouldn't dare obsess over you while you were here." he laughed.

He was probably right. I knew a decent amount of the guys here felt some type of way about me...if you know what I mean. "Heh, I guess you're right."

"So, how was the Caribbean?", he asked. "Did you enjoy yourself?"

"Oh, god. It was gorgeous there.", I told him. I realized i was starting to miss the beauty of Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic.

"And it wasn't 'all work, no play', was it?", he asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Nope.", I told him honestly. Guiltily, but honestly.

"Hmm, Royce actually let loose for once on a business trip? That doesn't really seem like him. He's more of a 'business before pleasure' type of guy, ya know?"

"Oh, is he? I would've never guessed it...'

Omar studied me for a minute. "Adrienne...what did you do...? What did he do...?" I was beginning to realize that Omar was the observant type. He knew people. He knew how to read them. There was no point in keeping anything from him. Besides, I actually did trust him.

"Omar, it wasn't supposed to happen. I don't even know what we were thinking..."
, I admitted sheepishly.

"Damn...I'm just surprised Royce actually gave in this time."

"This time? What do you mean?"

"He's had his eye on you for a minute, Adrienne. I'm surprised you hadn't figured that out yet."

'Well, I mean, I figured it out when we...you know..but how long has he actually...?"

"Since you started working here. Adrienne, this technically isn't even his record company anymore. Why do you think he was always around here?"

"I-I guess I hadn't really gave it much thought.", I confessed. I really hadn't realized Royce liked me until the trip.

"He tried his best to distance himself from you. He really did. He just couldn't help it.", said Omar.

I blushed. Just then, Antonio entered the lobby. I immediately felt guilty and felt my face get even hotter.

"'Sup, Omar?" Antonio turned to me and smiled. "Adrienne.'

I hadn't seen or spoke to him since our little incident last night. Yeah, I was feeling guilty, but I couldn't help but smile back whenever he spoke to me.

Omar looked from me to Antonio with a concerned expression on his face before speaking. "Well, i guess we should let you get back to work, Adrienne. After all, me and Antonio have to address something for a minute.

*Third Person POV*

"What the fuck was that all about?", asked Antonio in an annoyed tone as Omar pulled him into another room.

"Are you sure you're still into her?", Omar asked desperately.

Antonio rolled his eyes. "Omar, if you like her, I won't get jealous.', he teased.

It was Omar's turn to roll his eyes. Yes, he used to like her, but he was more interested in being someone she could trust rather than more than a friend. "No, man. It's just that there are a few guys here that like her too and-"

'And what? They know we're a thing.", Antonio said, cutting Omar off. "After all, I know damn well she's still into me."

Omar didn't like the tone of Antonio's voice. "What do you mean by that...?", he asked slowly.

"What do you think I mean, dumb ass?" He smirked a little. "I might've given her a little 'welcome back' present last night."

Shit. Thought Omar. He didn't think Adrienne knew what she was getting herself into. was she into Royce or Antonio. He was cool with both of them. Royce, now he was the type Omar thought would treat her right at first but Antonio had claimed to have changed and he seemed to make her happy. But then again, he didn't know if Royce knew the real Adrienne. The mother who dreamed of opening her own photography studio. The dreamer. He wasn't sure if Royce had seen that Adrienne or not...but he knew damn well that Antonio hadn't.

so, do you think this chapter is a game-changer in the story ? do you think Omar needs to be worried or should he just let whatever happens, happen ?
