Part 1: You Should Have Lied

It doesn't matter
That you had the courage to tell me
The easy way out
Was to free up your guilt, laid it on me

"No...no...shut up!" I yell and hold my hands to my ears and get up, moving away from her and jerking myself from her hands. This wasn't true, it couldn't be. She was lying, playing some cruel trick instead of telling the truth. She wouldn't do that to me, she wouldn't do that to Zach. Aidan wouldn't do that to me. No, he wouldn't, I knew that.

"Greenlee, please you have to understand..." She mummers and gets up, her voice full of tears and pain and I whip around and shake my head.

"Un...Understand?" I ask softly, pain lacing each one of my words. We had made it back, from such a dark place, a place where I had lost my sister and it felt as if I was falling into that hole again and this time, this time I had no idea how I would get out. "How can I understand Kendall!? How could I!? You slept with AIDAN!"

I yell and she begins to cry harder then before and I shook my head, feeling my own tears fill my eyes. How did she think I could ever forgive her for this. For sleeping with the only man who had really ever loved me for me. Besides Ryan but he didn't remember me, he didn't remember the love, hell all he remembered was the woman standing before me.

"We...we thought you and Zach were dead...it was a reaction." She mummers and reaches for my hands and I snap them back and shake my head.

"No...no a reaction is going home to your boys! A reaction is going to a church! A reaction is to fricking beg god for us to come home!" My anger was getting the best of me and I could tell I was hurting her with each word I said and I felt bad, because I didn't care. I didn't care, I was the old vindictive bitch again. The one that wanted to hurt her the way she hurt me. "What you did, was NOT a reaction! What you did was fuck my boyfriend because you are a WHORE!"

Her jaw drops and I gave a smirk but it quickly fell. "Please...Greenlee, we can deal with this. I can...I can't loose you." She says once she regained her composure and I wanted to believe her but my heart was crumbling and I wasn't sure if I felt hurt or betrayed, or both. My emotions were a jumble. She came close to me and this time she almost pulled me into a hug and with all my forced, I pushed her away because her touch felt a like a branding iron, burning me out of my own skin.

"Don...Don't touch me!" I scream and look at her with a shake of my head and reach for my bag, grab it and turn on my heal. I couldn't be with here with her. I couldn't look at her when I felt as if I was breaking. "I will never forgive you for this." I whisper before running, not walking, to the elevator and jam the button as if it would open up faster.

I hear clicking of heels and I jam the elevator button even harder. "Greenlee, please...please...listen, it meant nothing! Nothing...please talk to me. Yell at me, do something!"

She yells and once the door opened, I quickly walked in and shook my head at her. "If it meant nothing, why did you do it?" I asked before the door shut and once it did, I leaned against the door. Sliding down the wall and bury my head in my knees and let all the tears fall.

"Oh god...how...how could they do this?" I whisper softly to myself and just let the tears fall.

What do I care?
If it didn't really mean a thing why'd you do it?
I'm standing here
Looking at someone who doesn't
Know they blew it, yeah

You should have lied
Cause' your stupid mistake
Made my world crash down
Now its goodbye

Somehow when the door opened, I was able to stand up and make my way out. I didn't see anything though, my eyes were to blurred with tears. I stumbled towards my car but before I got far, I felt a hand on me and I jerked way. "DON'T TOUCH ME!" I yell at the unknown person and when I lifted my head, I found Zach standing there.

"Hey, hey, what's wrong?" He whispered and I just fell into his arms, tears and sobs ripping from my body and I held onto him as if he was a life raft. "Hey, hey, is it Aidan? Or Jackson?" He whispered and I shook my head. "Then what's got you in a tizzy?"

I looked up at him. He didn't deserve this either. Neither of this. We hadn't asked to be into that bomb sheltered, we hadn't wanted to be presumed dead. We just had been. "Tizzy?" I ask with a laugh that was more of a sob.

"Yeah, a tizzy. What has you in one..." He asks again and places his hands on the side of my face and wipes my tears away. I look up at him and shake my head.

"You're wife." I whisper softly and shake away from him and run a hand through my hair and he looks at me strangely.

"I thought you and her were good, better then good?"

I can only shake my head with a laugh that was also a sob again. If he only knew. If only knew what his precious Kendall had done to betray us. To hurt us like that. Part of me wanted to haul him into a kiss and get revenge for what they had done. That though, would only make us as bad and I had turned over a leaf. I was the new Greenlee, not the lying bitch anymore. "Oh, if you only knew how wrong you were..."

I say with a shake of my head and turn around and walk to the car. Turning my head over my shoulder. "You shouldn't hear it from me though." I say and wipe at my eyes.

"Greenlee, wait, what do you mean?" I heard him ask but I only kept going to my car because as much as I loved Zach as a friend, I didn't want to hurt him. So if Kendall didn't tell him, then I would deal with that. I wouldn't hurt him again. So instead, I found my car, got in, and whipped out and out of the parking garage. Seeing in my rear view mirror looking frustrated as hell. I just looked back at the road and the tears that started to flow again were making it hard to see, so I just let my gut drive.

No you can't take it back
Once the truth has come out of your mouth
So you tried to be honest
But honesty blew it this time
You should have lied

If a tree falls inside of a forest and nobody hears it
It wont affect anybody 'cause no one will miss it

I wound up at my apartment after an hour of driving around Pine Valley, I had been a little more surprised but I got of the car and left my purse inside. I stand up and walk towards the elevator and once I hit the button, I wait to get to my floor. I was a bit less upset then I had been. The drive had calmed me down. I was more pissed then hurt and weepy. Once the elevator door open, I opened my front door and made my way to our...my room. There was no way in hell I was staying here with him. I couldn't. I would go stay at Jack's or Pine Valley Inn. Anywhere but where the memories of me and Kendall or me and him were. Anywhere but here.

"There is my beautiful make-up mogul." I felt his arms reach for me and I quickly jerk out of his touch. I couldn't let him touch me. I couldn't and I wouldn't. It felt dirty to do so. I shake my head and look over at him.

"Don...don't you dare touch me!" I say coldly to him with a shake of my head and take a breath. Grabbing a bag and beginning to stuff some clothes to inside of it.

"What are you doing Greenlee?" I tell he asks and I shake my head with a laugh.

"Actually the question should be, who were YOU doing one night?" I say with a crass laugh and grab a few more clothes. "Oh but you don't have to say anything, the bitch in heat told me herself!" I tell him with a sigh and shake my head.

"What are you talking about Greens?" He asks, as if he was genuinely confused. Zipping up the bag, I turn around and shake my head.

"You don't get to call me that, Leo called me that, Ryan called me that, my father calls me that, not lying man whores, got it!" I tell him and point a finger at him angerily. Moving to stuff more of my clothes into the bag. I had no idea how long I would be gone, I didn't even know what I was stuffing in there, it was just an reaction.

"Greenlee, talk to me, what are you talking about? What's going on baby?"

Before, I would have fell for this, shook my head and casted it off as Kendall lying, but I believed her. She wouldn't lie, as much as I wanted to say she did, she wouldn't. Not about this. "You and Kendall! I know, she told me about how you two made mad passionate monkey love when you thought Zach and me were dead." I say with shake of my head and point my finger at him with a sigh. "But hey, thanks for NEVER giving up on me, that meant a lot." I say with a another cold laugh and reached down, pushing the clothes down so it would zip.

"Where are you going?" He asked and I turn my head over my shoulder with a smirk.

"Maybe I'll go fuck Zach, or hey, maybe Ryan? Hell he doesn't remember the last 4 years but after a few hours in heaven with me, he's bond to remember!" This time, my laugh of of pure enjoyment because the moment the words were out of my mouth his face fell. I had always been a vindictive bitch and though, I really had no plans of doing any of those things, it didn't mean he couldn't think I was.

"Dammit Greenlee wait..." He shouts and like I did with Kendall and Zach I just kept walking because looking back only caused to much pain. I walked out the door with my head held high and once I got on the elevator, the pain seeped in. Like a ton of bricks falling over me. I slowly slide down the w and place my hands in my head. I had lost the only man who ever loved me for me and I had no idea what to do now.

What would I care
If you were dying from the guilt of keeping a secret?
This isn't fair
'cause now I've gotta be the one dealing with it, oh

You should have lied
Cause' your stupid mistake
Made my world crash down

I looked at Kendall who looked like a mess, just like when Greenlee had first walked away from her. She was bundled up in a ball, crying. I had been so sure they were making their way back to their happy place. I even called Greenlee Kendall's other significant other. The bond we shared was only rivaled by the one they shared and to see them broken broke my own heart. Not mention confused the hell out of me.

But instead of dwelling on that, I ran to her and lifted her a bit. Pulling a seat up and sitting on it with her in my lap. Brushing her hair off the neck I loved many times over, I placed a soft kiss there to calm her down. "Hey, hey, look at me." I whisper and tipped her chin up. Her eyes were red and swollen and I placed a soft kiss on each.

"Wanna tell me what's going on?" I whispered and she shook her head no.

"I...I can't...I can't...I can't loose you too." She whispered on a hiccup and buried her head in my neck and I just rocked her a bit. She wasn't making sense but I knew, I knew she had to tell me something because Greenlee had been a wreck too and she had blamed
it on Kendall.

"You will never loose me, you know that. Always, only you, remember?" I ask her softly and she pulled her head up and gave me a lopsided smile that made my heart do twisty turns. She was the mother of my
children and the only woman I ever loved with my whole heart. And she would be the last, no matter what I had to do to make sure of that.

She slowly lifted her head and mopped some of her tears away, her eyes red and swollen and her voice horse when she spoke. "After...after I tell you, I don't know if you will feel the same." She mummers and I felt my gut clench. Greenlee loved Kendall just as I did, completely and if had broke her like that, I was almost afraid to hear it but I knew it needed to be said, or else we could never move past it and that was what mattered.

"Tell me?" I say and she moves to stand up and I do as well, standing in front of her, reaching for her hands and giving her my strength, giving her whatever she needed to tell me what happened.

"I guess...I guess it's just best to say it." And I nodded but my gut clenched even tighter, that sense of dread coming over me fast and sharp. I had this feeling the day my father killed Simone, the day he killed Erin, the day he nearly killed the woman before me. Then her words were moving and I had to fight the impulse to just kiss her so I wouldn't hear the words. But I don't and I just squeeze her hand.

"When you and Greenlee were down in the bunker, me and Aidan...me..." She had started to cry again and I felt my heart begin to crack. My brain filling in the missing words but I sent a quick prayer to whoever was up there and begged for my idea to be wrong. Prayed it would be. "Me..me and Aidan slept together." She finally said it and I felt my hands drop hers. Just looking at her. It was more of a shock, it was a like the first time you are hit in the gut and you feel you air going out from your lungs.

"Zach..." She whispered on a heart broken cry and I lifted my head. Not saying a word and turning around, walking away from the love and the life we had shared. Feeling betrayed, angry, and dead inside. Just they way Greenlee had felt and I felt tears burning my eyes, but I didn't release them until I was in my car.

Now its goodbye
No you can't take it back
Once the truth has come out of your mouth
So you tried to be honest
But honesty blew it this time
You should have lied

If a tree falls inside of a forest and nobody hears it
It wont affect anybody 'cause no one will miss it

What would I care
If you were dying from the guilt of keeping a secret?
This isn't fair
'cause now I've gotta be the one dealing with it, oh

I reached the door and knocked softly, almost hoping he didn't answer because then I could go to the Valley Inn and not tell him what was going on, but at the same time I needed the comfort he could only offer, the love that wasn't biased and the love that never wavered. I knocked again, this time harder and I heard the door open and I looked at my father. Still dressed in the clothes he had been wearing all day, sans the tie and his cuffs were no longer buttons.

"Greenlee?" He asked and I drooped my bag and went into his arms and he didn't hesitate, he arms went around me and I began to sob into his coat. All the pain I had been hiding, all the betrayal I felt finding a place on his shirt. Knowing I was wetting it but I didn't care, I couldn't stop.

"What's wrong?" He whispered as he leaned his head down to rest on top of mine and I looked up into his eyes. His clear while mine were red and wet.

"Aid...Aidan and Kendall..." Was all I managed to get out between hiccups and sobs and he looked down at me with more surprised then anything.

He slowly parted though and leaned down to grab my bag and pushed me inside and I followed him. I could tell he hand been sitting on the couch, his laptop was on the coffee table and opened to a document. He dropped my bag on the chair and I moved to the corner of the couch that was still warm from him and he moved to sit next to me. Pulling me into the crook of my arm. Feeling as if I was a small child and my Grandfather was trying to comfort me because the latest boy broke my heart. "What happened?" He whispered and interrupted my thoughts.

I bit my lip and took a deep breath. "The...They cheated on me." I just whispered and I felt his hand tighten on my shoulder for a brief second and I knew, I knew he was thinking of a way to kill the man, just like my Grandfather did all those years ago. I slumped further into his arms and tears started to fall again. "Will you be the only man who loves me forever?" I whisper and he just sighed and placed a kiss on my forehead.

"No, I promise you that, but you can always count on me Greenlee, forever and always." He whispers and I nod and slowly I felt my eyes drift close. The tears and pain getting the best of me.

You should have lied
Cause' your stupid mistake
Made my world crash down
Now its goodbye
No you can't take it back
Once the truth has come out of your mouth
So you tried to be honest
But honesty blew it this time
You should have lied
