"Jen and Keaton are coming over" wes yells as I step out of our shower

"But-"

"No buts he's my brother and he likes her can you please just bite your tongue for one night?" I huff and nod earning a peck on the lips

"Now get dressed they'll be here shortly" he smacks my ass and rushes out of the room

---------------------------

I put on a over sized blue sweater and black skinny jeans

"Keaton!" I greet him at the door with a huge hug

"Hey sea how are you?"

"I'm good umm hello Jen" I kind of wave at her

"Seana" she curtly nods

"So did you guys fix everything with the planner?" Keaton asks when we sit down in the living room

"Things with your planner aren't working? I could help" Jen offers directly at wesley

"No thank you everything's fine" I cut in

"That's a very nice offer Jen but Alison has everything under control" wesley leans over and kisses my cheek as I lean into him

"So you guys hungry we could order take out?" Wes offers when silence falls

"Sounds lovely" Jen answers cutting Keaton off

"I'll help you decide" Keaton stands after wes both going into the kitchen

"So when's the wedding?" Jen asks

"In two months"

"And everything between you two is ok?"

"Fantastic"

"Do you really think he's going to go through marrying you?" I stop

"Excuse me what the fuck is that supposed to mean?"

"It means he could have anyone what makes you so sure he's going to stick with you" she spits venomously

"This fucking ring on my finger tells me he's sticking around, the fact we live together or maybe the fact he won't even give you a second glance" I spit back just as harshly

"Hunny I could take him right out from under you"

"You maniacal bitch you're using Keaton to get to wes" she had the fucking nerve to laugh

"Why go for one when you can have both? You know about that don't you?"

"Excuse me!" I get louder surely catching the boys attention

"Please like I don't know about you fucking Keaton!"

"You fucking bitch" I jump over the table and attack her as I grip her hair and punch her face I feel two arms hauling me off her

"Sie werden nie ihm, dass ich Sie zuerst töten!" (You will never have him I'll kill you first) I scream in German

"Keaton she ... She just snapped" she cries I to Keaton's shoulder

"I want them out of my apartment now" I tell wesley before pivoting and getting out of his grip

"Seana..."

"They go or I go wesley" when he hesitates I go into the room and grab my essentials

"Seana where are you going?" Wes grabs my arm

I spin his arm behind his back and pin him down

"Don't you ever touch me like that" I take my knee off his back and stand back up

"das ist noch lange nicht vorbei" (this is far from over)I glare at Jen

"Oh, ich denke, es ist"(oh I think it is) she smirks when Keaton isn't looking and I walk out

--------------------------

I walk into Lacey's apartment and Cleo is there too

"I'm dressed let's go I'm going to kill this bitch" Lacey says and I know Cleo filled her in

"If anyone's killing her it's me" Cleo says

"No nobody is dying wesley made his choice and I'm going to just move on I was fine for three years I don't need him" the tears in my eyes speak differently

"I'm going to go buy us some ice cream ok?" Lacey hugs me on her way out her Latin hips walking with angry swing

"Hunny it's ok! Wesley is stupid sometimes but he'll come back he always does" Cleo hugs me reassuringly

"I think I scared them"

"What why?"

"I started yelling in German, and I took wesley down when he tried to grab me"

"Se I told you the military was crazy now you see why" we both laugh

Once we settle down for a movie I realize just how long Lacey's been gone

------------------------

LACEYS POV

"Wesley!" I kicked in his front door breaking the chain lock

"Lacey what the fuck did you do to my door?"

"What the fuck is wrong with you!"

"I know why your here and she's the one who left I would never make her leave!"

"You made it seem like you weren't going to choose her how do you think she felt!" He falls silent

"Whee is she?"

"Crying on my couch with cle last time I checked" I look at him and all I feel is disappointment much like when I first met him

"God I fucked up" he falls onto the couch head in hands

"The fact she's calling off the wedding says that"

"She's what?!" He jumps up

"She's calling it off she says she did fine without you the first time she'll do it again"

"No, no she can't do that!"

"Yea she can it kind of takes two people to get married Cabrón"

"Fuck Lacey I need to fix this!"

"You better have a plan and a good one two she won't just listen to you"

"I'm going to your house Lacey" I only nod before grabbing the unopened ice cream from his freezer

"What she thinks in at the store" I shrug and he follows me out getting in our separate cars we both drive to mine I go up first and wesley comes in my door a minute later

"Seana, baby please come back and we can talk I didn't mean to make you feel cornered I ... He's my brother I just want him to be happy, and he likes her I'm sorry she's such a notch and I promise she'll never step foot in our door again just please come home baby" only after his speech does he realize she's asleep on Cleo he does nothing but picks her up and sign.as me to follow with her bag

"So you're just going to take her?"he nods

"And when she wakes up well talk"

"I guess but wes, this is your last chance I've known sea nearly as long as Cleo and I know she's not one for second chances, you're lucky you go as many as you did"
