*Author's note:
OMG WHAT?! A NEW STORY FROM ME? IS THIS REAL LIFE? Yes, haha yes it is. Okay, so I'm really sorry my other stories just ended. I got WAYY too caught up with my new job and school and life. And I'm going to always be busy so I've just come to accept that on-going multi-chapter fics are never going to work with my ridiculously hectic life as a student/editor/graphic design intern. So this one, thankfully is already finished and I will post the next part shortly.

This is just an idea that has been stuck in my head ever since I watched episode 3. This story is going to be fairly short-only one more chapter after this. But if anyone else likes this idea and wants to take it further please do!

Sorry again for letting y'all down with the other fics and I'll try to post one-shots whenever I can. I love all of you on here and your awesome stories. Reviews make me smile :)

Alright I'll shut up now. :P

It was supposed to be perfect.

He was supposed to have an enjoyable evening with a decently attractive woman and he was supposed to end the night by sleeping with her. But nothing can ever be fucking easy for him, now can it?

After Nina walked out of his bathroom, hair wet and in a shear black camisole, Will was ready to take her to bed. But then she just had to mention Mackenzie.

"Mac just called me," she said as walked out.

"Why?"

Oh god, Will thought. The last thing he wanted to talk about before he fucked another woman was his ex. But underneath that feeling, was a deeper sense of guilt he couldn't help but feel. Even years after he and Mac broke up, sleeping with other women always always feels a little bit like cheating. And he hates that. He hates that he feels that way because he doesn't think he should. SHE cheated on HIM for christ's sake. But the feeling was inevitable, as was the even more hidden feeling that he still loved her.

"She wanted to thank me for not running the story."

"You don't have to look like you did something wrong," He tells her, but Nina still keeps that worried look on her face.

So Will rose from his chair and walked until he was just inches away from her. He lowered his face to hers until their lips were almost touching and whispered.

"Just forget she even called."

And he sealed his statement with a kiss and Nina seemed to forget.

Clothes were quickly being shed and half naked Nina Howard hovered over a half clothed Will on his bed. She kissed him on the lips and then moved her mouth kissing along his jawline and then moving to his neck.

Will's eyes went shut as he tried to let himself enjoy the experience-to enjoy the woman who was making the pleasurable sensations along his skin. He shut his eyes tightly-maybe if he just let his mind wander enough, this could work-he could stop over-thinking this and feeling guilty. He let his hands fall to her hips and he felt his trick was working. He ran his hands up and down the length of her body while she continued to work her way down his neck and onto his chest. He let go of all his worries and just focused on the sensation.

And then it happened.

She was sucking on a particularly sensitive spot of skin when Will's mind wandered a bit too far. It was the spot right where his neck joined is shoulders and it drove him wild because Mac used to always place her perfect lips there. And when Nina did the same Will got lost in the moment and he moaned her name.

"Oh Mac."

The second her name left his lips Nine stiffened like a plank of wood.

Fuck, Will thought.

In what seemed like lighting speed Nina peeled off of him and darted off the bed and began looking for her shirt and shoes discard somewhere on the floor.

"Nina, wait," Will started.

But she cut him off.

"No Will," She said sternly with a tinge of embarrassment. "No, just don't. This was a mistake. I knew, I knew you still loved her. I just thought that maybe one night wouldn't … Oh fuck, I just…this was obviously a mistake."

"Nina, it's not a mistake, and I don't love her anymore. Let me just-"

But she cut him off again.

"Oh shut the fuck up, Will."

"Nina, listen-"

"No, you listen. You are such an idiot. I get it. She cheated on you and you have every right to hate her and to not forgive her. But what you seem to be too delusional to realize is that you don't hate her. You just don't. You love her. And nobody-not me not anyone-you try sleep with is going to change that."

Will was speechless.

Letting out a heavy sigh, Nina quickly redressed and gathered her purse and phone, but before leaving his bedroom she paused in the doorway and turned to him again.

"You can't force your way out of loving her. But you can learn to forgive her. Honestly? I think you already have but you are just in too much denial to see it."

She was about to leave when she saw Will about to open his mouth to speak and she hurriedly spoke up before he had the change to.

"Please don't say anything. And please don't try and call me. I made this mistake once and I can promise you I won't make it again."

And with that she left his apartment.

Will McAvoy just sat there on the edge of his bed with his head in his hands, frustrated and unsatisfied.

Well fuck, he thought.
