Sorry I've not posted anything in ages, but someone suggested this so here it is…

"What's that?" I asked, wrapping my arms around Brax's waist from behind as he read a letter that had just come through the post

"I'm being sued for sexual harassment" he admitted

"What? By who?" I questioned, shocked at his admission

"You know I brought in some extra agency staff for John and Gina's vow renewal?" he asked

I nodded…

"One of the girls from that event. I don't believe this. If word gets out that could be Angelo's finished" he sighed, running his hands through his hair

"Brax" I sighed "I'm sorry, baby"

"It's not your fault" he replied, wrapping his arm around my waist "I better go and call my lawyer"

I nodded and turned his head to face me, kissing him softly… "Good luck"

Later on that afternoon I was sat in the diner with Bianca, telling her everything about the harassment claim…

"What he's going to do?" she asked, raising an eyebrow as she took a sip of her coffee

"I don't know but I'm not gonna let him give up" I informed her "we're gonna fight this and we're gonna win"

"Brax is lucky to have you" she informed me, smiling

"And Heath's lucky to have you" I mirrored "I don't believe it"

"What?" she inquired

"That girl from the agency who's now suing Brax has just walked in here" I informed her

"Charlie, don't" Bianca stated "you'll only make it worse"

"I'm just gonna have a quiet word with her" I replied, standing up and making my way over to her

"Can I help you?" she questioned as she turned around to face me

"I think so. I'm Charlie Braxton" I informed her, her face dropping at the mention of the name Braxton "I hear you're filing a sexual harassment suit against my husband?"

"If I were you I'd get out of there while you can" she replied "everything about him is going to come out of the woodwork soon enough"

"And what's that supposed to mean?" I inquired, raising an eyebrow

"When I was working for him he couldn't help but ogle me and the other waitresses. It was like we were pieces of meat. So degrading" she explained

"Funny, I was there last night and so was my friend, we don't remember that, do we, B?" I asked, Bianca shaking her head, signalling no at my question "in fact, Brax was with me most of the night and we were happier than ever as we'd just recently got married ourselves"

"I don't know what to tell you, love" she replied "I better get going. Meeting with my lawyer"

"One second, I just wanna say, you're not gonna win this. We're gonna fight you every step of the way" I informed her

"I look forward to seeing you both in court then. Have a nice day" she stated, smiling falsely before leaving the diner

BRAX'S POV:

"And what did she say to you?" I asked Charlie as she told me about her run in at the diner

"That she'd see us in court" she informed me "and that I should get out of here whilst I could. That's not even an option though"

"Maybe you should" I sighed "I'm bad news, Charlie"

"Darryl Braxton" she proclaimed "I'm on the verge of slapping you right now, do you know that? What's with the self pity?"

"There's no one else to give me any" I replied

"That's because you don't need it" she stated "Brax, we're gonna win this, and you need to believe you are if we're gonna fight this"

"Why are you supporting me?" I questioned, raising an eyebrow

"Do you seriously need to ask that?" she asked "I love you, you goof. It's as simple as that. We're married. Whatever problems you or I face, we face them together. That's what a marriage is all about. Does that answer your question?"

I didn't answer, I just placed a soft kiss on her lips, my hands moving to her waist as hers wrapped around my neck as I guided us through to the bedroom…

Poor Brax, eh?
