Mitch closed his eyes and dropped his head "Damn it, Courtney I didn’t want you to find out like that It’s just…"

I felt the anger building up inside of me, but when Reed put his hands on my shoulders, I instantly cal have you been cheating on me?" I asked as I tried to hold back the tears

"So, you’re bla this on me? I’ve never been unfaithful to you, and you…" I took another breath "Just tellyour ex?"

"I think you should just leave now," Karen said as she smirked at me

I wasn’t sure what came over me, but I walked over to her, reached back, and punched the shit out of her

Mitch helped Karen up and looked back at me "I told you what you wanted to hear, Courtney The only reason I went after you is because I knew Reed wanted you"
