I thought that this story was more like oneshot but I know that there are some people waiting for „to be continued" so I wrote it for you guys. Hope it's fine and not fluffy… Am I the only person who CAN NOT wait for Ste and Brendan reunion? Know, it's a stupid question:)

As I walked down the street back to mine I tried to make up some believeble excuse for Ally.

There's no way he's gonna let me get away with leaving him on his own for the whole evening. So, maybe Amy and the kids' unexpected problem? Nope, he lives too close. Had to work until late? Maybe, yeah…I quess it's alright. I can't believe what I did…and what am I doing now? Sleeping with my ex and lying to my boyfriend. How could I? I think I'm more mental than Brendan….I need to take a grip. It's not like I'm gonna do it again, ever. That was a mistake and…I would never have cheated on Ally if it wasn't for Brendan making this trap-meeting. Right? I'm a trash. But I don't want to loose Ally. I'm not gonna tell him. That would be over. Surely. He's such an honest, reliable guy. I don't deserve him.

I opened the door to my flat and entered inside. Amy sat with Ally on the couch. They were watching telly together.

"Hiya." I said trying to sound as neutral as possible. Ally didn't say a single world, he didn't even look at me. I knew he was a bit dissapointed.

"Hiya Ste. I'm tired." Amy gave me a warning look. Then she got up and left us alone.

I sat next to him. Near."Alright?" I said and I laid my hand on his tigh seductively. I wanted to make it up to him, I quess. But he was still focused on TV. So I decided to shut up for a bit, to give him some time to cool things. After a few minutes I couldn't stand his frozen face though. "I had to stay longer at work you know…but I missed you" I tried again and he sighed. At least I got some reaction from him. I thought that was a good moment to make up so I leant for a light kiss. He closed his eyes for a moment and he looked me in the eyes finally.

"I called." He said.

"I know" I dipped my head.

"Why didn't you answer?" he insisted and I literally felt a sweat on my back.

"I told you, I had to stay until late. I was very busy." I said gently stroking the back of his neck. " I'm sorry" I whispered. That was the only honest thing I said to him that evening. Indeed I was really sorry. For everything I've done. For sleeping with Brendan. For lying to him.

"Looks like you don't have enough time recently." He said and got up.

"And what that was supposed to mean?" I got up too.

"Nothing." He stood back to me. He put his palms on his neck. "Recently, you act…differently."

"I'm not!" I assured him with a smirk in my voice. "Stop being silly. It's just your imagination Ally." He still looked unconvinced so I took a few steps forward to hug him and kiss him. To assure him that everything was okay. That we were fine. And he let me. It made me happy because I really cared for him. I did. I really did.


After Stephen left my flat I decided I had to do something. Something distracting. Just something to stop thinking about him all the time. It was…painful. Like a chalk on the board.

So next day I thought about casino. I aways liked going there. I took a shower, get dressed my red shirt and smooth my tash. I was ready to go.

At the casino…it was fun. Yeah. I won some money. But it was't that what was so exciting about it, was it? I stood next to the roullete table when I saw him. He was shorter than me and blonde. At first I only glanced at him but then I noticed he was staring at me all the time so I took my chance. I drank what was left in my glass and gave him "the look" to follow me to the men room. He got it immidiately and when he entered inside I knew he was more than up for it. He was still staring at me as I was washing my hands. I moved towards him until I was very near…he's got blue eyes. Now I was more than up for it, too. He entered to the cubicle first and then he was the first to kiss me and blew me. I fucked him. I finshed with him and went out. I didn't look behind me. I left the casino and get back home.

Yeah, that was definitely distracting.
