"Jude didn't have it in him. Jude didn't want to constantly be having this same argument. Jude didn't want to be this way. They were over, okay? Please let Jude be over. Move on from them, Malachi Flynn."

His eyes were etched with agony. "I won't."

Jude took his hands away from him and crossed them on his lap. "Jude was sorry."

He gave Jude a curt nod and scowled downward.

Jude got up and left. Jude thought it couldn't hurt anymore like this.

Jude thought it couldn't shatter anymore.

Jude was so fucking wrong.

Malachi Flynn told Jude everything that day. They went at it until one o'clock in the afternoon as he discussed his life. His dad, a hedge fund manager, was two times as old as his mom. He was once married, and Malachi Flynn also had two older brothers with whom he no longer spoke. His dad was diagnosed with stage three Hodgkin's lymphoma two months before Malachi Flynn finished high school. He bequeathed all his property to Malachi Flynn. It led to a rift in the family.

    "One! Last Friday, that one. Jude didn't do it even if he wanted to. Jude did it to drive Malachi Flynn out of his fucking mind! It didn't work, and now Malachi Flynn was here bullying Jude about it? After who the hell knows how many people Malachi Flynn had screwed…probably the day after Malachi left Jude, if not sooner."Malachi Flynn did not look angry anymore. "Jud." He tried to step closer."You think Jude is confused? You turned Jude into this, Malachi Flynn. This is your doing. You turned Jude into loving you, turned Jude into needing to breathe because of you, turned Jude into being safe and loved and needed, and then abandoned Jude. They had plans. You always talked about the future, about them.". You pulled the rug out from under Jude. You threw Jude aside like he was nothing to you and didn't even get a word in edgewise—not when you left, but for two fucking years. You couldn't pick up the phone to call Jude and let him know what he did wrong to have made you leave him. Jud

    Jude fought the urge to look over his shoulder."I'm not proud of this, you know." Jude chuckled softly again."It's alright." Jude wasn't sure it was. He still felt extremely guilty, and having him there made it a million times worse. "I kind of have something I need to get to, but I promise I'll text you back.""Oh, sure. Sorry for getting in your way."Jude smiled, shaking his head. "It's no problem. You're not barging in."He advanced another step into Jude. "Just listen to me, okay? I just wanted to tell you one thing, and then I'm out of here. I know you don't want to be involved at the moment, and I totally get that. It's just…""What?" Jude inquired."It was great sex, Jud," he said with a laugh.Jude blinked at him, taken aback. That wasn't what he had anticipated. "Really?"He grinned and took a step forward. "Yeah, you're the best I've had in a while, and I just want to let you know that I'm really in the mood for it. If you want another replay of Friday night, you know, sa

    "Still. You could just have the conversation out in public," Yon pressed.Jude Queens rolled her eyes. "It's not like it ever stopped us before," she growled.He snorted a little laugh. "Hey, you were safe, right? With Mathew?" He squinted a little."She thought they were beyond him treating her like a kid.""I had to ask. Sorry it didn't work out for you today, Jud. I'm going out. You want to come with me?""Nah, she was all right, thanks."Yon prepared to leave.Jude clenched down on the side of her thumb, with a passing temptation. "Actually, may I use your phone before you go?" she said impulsively."Why?" He stepped forward to dig into his pocket."I have to text Malachi something, but I don't want to do it off mine," she said.He glanced down at his phone, then handed it to her, already opened on the text with Malachi. "Here, I'm going to the bathroom."Jude stared down at it.Jude QueensI'll call you next week about that talkit's Jud.She texted and sat in front of the screen

    Jude got what Mathew was trying to say. Jude wasn't letting him move even a centimeter out of position. Jude just wanted to have him this way, to wrap himself in the pretense that this wasn't Mathew. If Mathew got hurt, it all came crashing down, and all Jude was left with was the suffocating shame of taking advantage of him like this.Jude let Mathew's hip go and spit on his hand and rubbed it against him. Mathew moaned loudly. At least Mathew could reciprocate the favor to Jude.Jude came back at nine. Yon was in the kitchen, leaning into the fridge to grab a beer, and grinned when he spotted Jude. Jude scowled and crossed over to lean on the kitchen counter."Where have you been?" Klaus had just returned from the gym an hour before.Jude huffed. "Having sex with Mathew," he replied.Yon had lost something in the sink with a clunk. He turned around, eyes wide. "Shit.""Is this not okay? Is it weird to discuss this with you? Talking about sex?""No, it's okay. You surprised me. I did

    "Right," Jude said."He's hotter than he expected," Mathew said, tilting his head as he inspected him.A flash of residual jealousy burned through Jude. He grunted neutrally."Somebody informed him that he was bisexual. Is he?""Last he knew, yeah.""Mathew stumbled over some gossip about him once, that he had a boyfriend. Totally hot, too—" He stopped.Jude's mouth was clamped shut.Mathew glanced at him, realization dawning. "He’s your ex, isn’t he?" He was already looking pretty embarrassed."Yup, that’s the one," Jude admitted.Mathew tittered nervously. "Shit, I’m sorry.""Don’t worry about it.""Mathew couldn't believe Jude's ex was Malachi Flynn. What was that like? To date him?"It was such a loaded question. Jude could spend years trying to explain. "Traumatizing," he said instead.Mathew laughed again. "I'm sorry. Let me buy you a beer. As friends. You could use a break," he said.Jude took a breath, then nodded. "Yeah. Just one, I'm going to the gym afterwards," he told Mat
