Charles looked around before he then unlocked the door he wasn't having this conversation on the doorstep. He didn't want everyone to know his business and he knew that she could shout and with in minutes everyone would know what had happened between them.

Not that it was anyone elses business.

He dumped his bag at the bottom of the stairs and heard the door shut as he walked in to the kitchen, really needing a strong drink but he wasn't the type that would open the Jack Daniels bottle for this sort of thing; though he was tempted to do just that.

He watched as Rebecca walked in to the kitchen after him and he stayed his distance.

The silence was heavy in the air as they both looked at each other, she was checking him out because he still had his uniform on, but his eyes were planted well to her face because he wasn't in love with her anymore. He didn't need to check her out like he would've done before.

"So let me get this straight Scott left you for another woman, which is karma in it's own right, but then you decide after all of that you want me back; did I get everything right?"

Rebecca put her eyes up to his face as he was talking and she chewed on her lip for a moment before she then started speaking "I truly am sorry for everything that happened between the three of us, I never meant to hurt you like that"

"No, you never meant to get caught" Charles has been waiting a long time to say all of this, he wanted her to know just how much she really hurt him. She was one of the reasons why he couldn't commit to Molly.

Rebecca stayed quiet at that and put her eyes down to the floor. He was correct she had never meant to get caught because of the fact she had wanted them both and when he came home and found them it had ended them and now she was standing here in the kitchen trying to get him back, it was Charles she had loved all this time.

It was Charles she had wanted but he had grown cold towards her and every time she tried to get a conversation with him he would shut her down and now they were standing here in the same kitchen and he was telling her all the things she had done wrong and right now she wanted to yell at him but didn't.

Charles sighed and shook his head and knew that he was being an idiot when he said this "Against my better judgement you can stay but you and me," he pointed between the two of them "we're not getting back together, we're done but until you get a place you can sleep in the spare room; I'm not going to be here much anyway" he watched her "If I get one inkling that you are trying to screw me over, I will throw you out without a hesitation" he said that with complete honesty that she could stay until she got a flat but until then she screws anything up then she's out and he won't care if she stays in her car again.

A smile pulled at her lips "Thank you so much, Charlie" she was glad for the fact she could stay in the spare room but there was always a chance for her to change his mind about them. It's not like he was seeing anyone.

"For now I need sleep" he walked out the kitchen and felt bone tired and he knew that that was something sleep couldn't fix but he would start with a hot shower. Charles walked out the kitchen and grabbed his bag from the bottom of the stairs and walked up the stairs.

Rebecca watched Charles walk out the kitchen and a smirk pulled at her lips. She would give him time and then he would be crawling back to her and this was just the first step, staying here and getting him to remember all those fun days that they had together would be the next step and then he would be puty in her hands. She knew how to play him after all.

Charles reached into his pocket and pulled out his phone and in there was a selfie that they had taken before they left Miami and there, right at the back, was Molly and she was smiling and he zoomed in a little to see it a bit better and smiled to himself before he put the phone on the side cupboard and then he went and got in the shower.

As Rebecca was coming up the stairs she heard his mobile ringing and she walked in to the bedroom and she saw that it was someone called Molly ringing him and she answered it "Charlie's phone"

"Oh, I.. is Charles there?" Molly asked and looked out the window of her flat.

"He's in the shower, can I take a message?"

"Can you tell him that Molly rang and.. that Molly rang" she muttered.

"Molly.. right" Rebecca said

"Can I ask who answered his phone?"

"I'm Rebecca"

Molly felt her heart pounding hard in her chest when she heard that name and now she felt like an idiot for ringing "Thanks" and with that she put the phone down. "How could you be so stupid?" she said to herself.

Rebecca looked through his phone, it was the same password; Charlie was an idiot for not changing it, and she then made it seem like the last person who had rang him was Elvis and then she looked up when she heard the shower stop and with that she put his phone down on the cupboard where it was and then quickly, and quietly, walked out the room going to her own bedroom.

Charles got back to his room and checked his phone, nothing. He was going to give Molly the space that she probably needed from him and call her in a few days but right now he needed rest and to be away from his ex and he had been wondering if he had done the right thing but only time would tell he guessed.

He got dressed in to some pj bottoms and an old t-shirt before he got in to bed for a rest, hopefully when he woke up Rebecca would be gone.
