      Stacey knew that this could possibly end badly but she needed to be honest with Tempest about herself and Tyson. It had been something she has been keeping for months and something that has been eating a way at her, and Stacey knows the longer she keeps it a secret the worse it will get.  “ I think it’s time that I am completely upfront with you about something. About why I’ve been so distant the last few months. “  She can feel her heart rate starting to pick up with each moment lead up to her dropping the news.  “ I am just going to spit this out before I change my mind. I’ve uh, --- been sleeping with Tyson. “ Those were not easy words for her to blurt out and she hopes Tempest knew that. 

            He lowered himself and moved his face closer to the child. “Are you here to get eaten?”

      James had done everything he could in his possible power to stay away from Amanda, however it seems like every moment he is alone and getting lost in his thoughts they always seem to go back to thinking about the redhead. He has no idea why exactly why he can’t shake his desire to have her off. James has been spending months pushing her away from him but he secretly would do anything to have her even though he knows the two of them could possibly end in disaster. He knows that he has been giving Amanda all these crazy signs of what he actually wants.  “ Here we are again, “ a small sigh falls from his lips. However he knows at this point there is no avoiding the obvious since James has kind of been ruining most of her chances of moving on to someone new.  “ I think we should possibly talk about the possibility of an us. “ 

       Stacey told herself that she is suppose to hate Tyson to a certain extend since she constantly listened to Tempest complain about him. Little does her friend know that Stacey has been casually sleeping with Tyson and she hates keeping it a secret from her since she is her best friend, but she fears her reaction if she knows the truth. It’s the reason why Stacey is at Tyson’s place to tell him that they can’t continue to do this. She can’t live with keeping it from Tempest if things don’t stop or else she is going to possibly going to crack from the guilt.   “ This was all fun while it lasted, but we can’t continue to do this Tyson. I can’t keep lying to her about why I need to blow her off or what I’ve been up to. “  This isn’t suppose to be hard for Stacey to do because there isn’t suppose to be feelings but yet it hurts at the idea of letting him go. 

      “ Sometimes I really question if I love my career so much with some of the shit that happens. “  It had been a long day shift and a lot of drama had gone down between some of her co-workers which had lead for her to break up the disagreement. Selina had been asked to stay longer but she honestly didn’t think shed be able to stand another moment there. For the first time in a long time Selina had been counting down the seconds until she would be done her shift. Part of her had thought about just going to her place and have an alone night by herself, but instead she had decided it would be better to spend it with Storm. It would be the one way of keeping her from overthinking things.  “ I don’t understand how everyone can’t see that we’re there to help people and not be children fighting about who is right. “ 

      “ Jesus, Imogen I didn’t know you knew where I lived. “  Cooper teases with his usual playful smirk he has whenever she is around.  “ Do you ever take a break from working? Unless you’re not here for business? “  He could careless whatever reason she was there for, Cooper is just enjoying the fact that he is in her presence since it had been awhile since the two had seen one another.  “ Did you miss me? I know that it has been awhile since you’ve got to see this handsome face of mine and it’s just your luck that you get to see a little more? “ Cooper steps out of the pool which he had been in only moments before Imogen had interrupted his swim.
