"Bree, look at me." Gage cupped her face, turning her to face him. He seated her on the kitchen stool trying to clean her scrapes and pick shards of glass from the broken car window embedded in her arm. It wasn't much but he needs to make sure the wounds won't get infected. The bruise on her neck looked worse, he put medical ointment to hopefully help it heal faster. He also put some on her exposed hip, then ushered her to change to his t-shirt and pajama pants.While Bree was in the bathroom, Gage had called Mrs. Mancini and told her to pack a few days' worths of clothing for both Hazel and Bree. "I... I have to get back, Hazel..." Bree said after she was back joining him in the living room."I've sent Elvis to pick them up and escort them here, I have a spare room." Gage thought that he should not offer, he has other apartments, and he could even put her up in a hotel. But deep down he blamed himself, after all, she was attacked in the parking lot of the apartment that he rented ou

Gage doesn't date because the last time he dated, the woman looked at the framed picture of him next to his late wife and told him that it was creepy the way he still holds on to his deceased family. But when Bree finishes cleaning herself and getting dressed in the small bathroom attached to his home office after their little sexy encounter, she found and looked at the picture of a younger version of Gage. He was wrapping his arm around a beautiful-looking woman and then Bree asked why he put the picture in the bathroom.Bree knew that he had lost his family years back from Cassidy. That girl gossips like it's her way of keeping herself sane between med school and stripping at Babes."Of course, you know about my family," Gage said without looking offended, knowing that his employees at Babes often talk about him. The man gave her a small smile and tried to shrug off her question, he was already anticipating when Bree would tell him to put the picture away.But instead, he heard her

"Morning." Gage greeted the beautiful woman lying next to him by kissing her forehead softly. "Ugh, is it morning already?" Bree groaned from her side of the bed, then she took the comforter with her and continued seeking warmth by burrowing under Gage's arms.The man smirked, amused by her little quirks as he had been watching her for the last hour since. Bree had taken over the cover, bundling herself, keeping herself warm like a cozy burrito while leaving Gage naked and a bit cold from the morning air. He put on his pajama pants and got out of bed. "I'll fix us some coffee. I don't know what time Hazel usually wakes up but I'll go check in on her also." "Oh, my...Hazel!" The mentioning of her little girl's name made her eyes wide open, body alert, and quickly sit up, but then shriek finding her naked body under the cover. Then she gasped when she looked at half naked Gage, though she stopped for a second to admire his physique."Oh, god...I'm naked!"Gage laughed and gave her o

The next day Bree called Cassidy, she was lonely, Gage was working and Hazel was taking her nap."How old is Gage anyway?""What? What happened? Tell me? Why are you interested in his age?" Cassidy bombarded Bree with her questions. "And when are you going back to the club?""Cass..." "Alright...he's thirty-seven. Now, tell me." "Gage told me to take a couple of days off, I'm sure you heard about the incident. And Hazel is still recuperating from her sickness, so I guess I'll wait for further instruction from the boss." Bree tried not to lie, instead, she hid some information from the struggling med student. "Uh-huh," and just as she expected Cassidy was not buying into her bullshit, but she didn't ask further instead she continued talking about Rocco and Dee on how the couple was being sickeningly sweet to each other, then fill her in on how the last bachelor party went rogue at Babes.Bree ended the call when Hazel woke up from her nap. She ushered the toddler to the sofa to play

It was Bree's first day back at Babes, she had met Jojo the day before to get a good grasp of her new job. Hazel was dropped off at her daycare earlier by herself and also Gage. The little girl was too excited that she gets to show off her new friend Gage to the staff at the daycare. Since Bree was working with Jojo in handling more of the administration side of things she was scheduled a nine to five working hours. It was the only schedule Gage would let Bree work for and she finally relent thinking at least she was working and hopefully able to save money for her and Hazel's future. "So, you and Gage huh?""Yeah, I'm dating him," Bree said knowing Gage had told Jojo about their relationship status yesterday. The man couldn't care less about what his employees think of him. But Bree on the other hand, she was new and she knows exactly how disposable she was. Disposable to Gage and also to her employment. Somehow after losing everything with Everett she had never felt so disposable
