A/N: Hey! just a quick note to say that I am planning to continue writing this fic but I will be a lot slower at updating because I am taking on the mammoth task of doing kinktober this year. I'm going to aim to write 31 one shot fics the next few weeks ready to publish over October. Thank you for all your comments and support for this fic so far it's much appreciated and I'm glad people enjoy reading my work.

~ Hangovers and heartache ~

"Hey mate we're closing now, you need to leave." Hans found himself being shaken awake by a security guard at Baby platinum. Since Elsa had left Hans coping mechanism was regular visits to the strip club, getting paralytic on vodka and receiving numerous lap dances. All the time a girl would be gyrating on him and thrusting their breasts in his face Hans would envision it being Elsa. She would put all these bitches to shame. Elsa had all the perfect curves and impeccable, perky tits, oh how he missed those tits. Hans lifted his head off from the bar and scowled at the stocky man who had woken him up.

"Yessh, yessh I'm fuckin goin!" Hans slurred at him. He downed the rest of his vodka and tried to mount off the bar stool only to stumble and fall straight onto his ass.

"OOOW!" Hans cried out as his coccyx impacted the hard floor. The guard sighed and rolled his eyes. He grabbed Hans by his arm to help him back to his feet and practically frog-marched him out the club.

"Asssshole!" Hans cursed at the security guard as he shoved Hans sharply outside and slammed the doors to the club shut. Hans took his phone out to try order a Uber which took several minutes to do because he his phone screen was a blur in his drunken state. Once he had ordered his taxi the night took a turn for the worse when he ended up throwing up in the backseat of the car and being fined eighty pound.

"I'm going to book you in for another shoot with Hans for Friday" Maria mentioned to Elsa. They were sat in a small vintage cafe enjoying a morning of coffee and pastries. She had just received the samples for Elsa new collection and was eager to launch it after the success of her first collection. Elsa stopped chewing her croissant and swallowed thickly as she realised she would have to work with him again.

"Can we not use another photographer? " Elsa retorted. The last thing she wanted was to work with Hans and have him photograph her semi naked again. Maria let out a heavy sigh.

"Look, I know he can be a pain in the arse but he is a reputable photographer. I have always used him." Maria said taking a sip of her coffee. Elsa shrank back in her chair. She never contemplated that she would have to work with Hans again. Elsa was unaware that her eyes were starting to well up with tears. Maria instantly sensed Elsa's discomfort when Hans' name was mentioned. Elsa had not told Maria that they had been dating because she was well aware that Maria wasn't fond of him and his attitude towards women. However Elsa had experienced a different type of man. Hans had been genuine and charming with her right up to the moment she caught him fondling some slut's breasts. Hans hadn't been the typical Westergaard that Maria had described him to be.

"Okay, what the fuck has happened between you two?" Maria said with an exasperated tone. "I warned you he was trouble!" she added. Maria's tone and comment irritated Elsa. She promptly stood up from her chair and excused herself. Once in the restrooms she sobbed her eyes out. If only she had taken Maria's advice she wouldn't be experiencing such torrid heartache.

Hans groaned when he heard his phone ring loudly. With his head still under the duvet he stretched his arm out to his bedside table, fumbled around for his phone and answered It. He assumed it was his brother, Lars as he had been checking in on him most days after he had been called by bar staff at Baby platinum to come and collect Hans for being inebriated earlier on in the week. He pressed the answer button.

"Yeah, I'm fine!" His voice sounded coarse from his dry throat.

"Huh? Hans is that you?" a feminine voice came through the receiver. Hans took the phone away from his ear to see who it was. Shit! he thought to himself and dragged his hand down his face. Maria Spencer showed up on the call screen.

"Yeah it's me, Hans" He said trying not to sound too groggy. "Sorry I thought you were someone else."

"You sound absolutely awful! Have you just woken up? It's mid afternoon!"

"Erm yeah just been a bit under the weather the last couple of days" Hans lied.

"Okay if you have recovered by Friday and have an available slot I would like to book Elsa in for a shoot with you" Maria said. Hans stomach dropped at the sheer mention of her name. He struggled to get his words out.

"E...eeerm..." Hans stammered.

"Look, I know shit went down between you two but I trust that you will both be able to work together professionally. You need the work and Elsa needs to make successful sales on her lingerie.

"Look, just chill out and let me check my diary, I think I have a free slot to shoot after two o'clock on Friday. I will drop you a text shortly" Hans replied aggravated.

"You better do Westergaard!" Maria barked down the phone and ended the call.

Hans set the phone down on the bedside table."Fucking bitch" Hans grumbled as he sat up in bed. He groaned when he felt his head throbbing. The sunlight streamed through his bedroom window and made him cower when he opened his eyes. His gut churned from the amount of alcohol he had ingested last night and the thought of having to face Elsa again made them more agitated. Hans instantly knew his stomach would play up today with his hangover. He headed to the kitchen stark naked to make himself a Alka seltzer hoping it would settle his troublesome guts. After watching it fizz in a glass of water he gulped it down. Hans felt pressure building up in his lower bowel. Leaning over the kitchen counter he blasted out a very loud, prolonged, satisfying break of wind. He grunted with relief as he did and immediately started retching when he smelt the gas that had just been expelled out of him. He was thankful he had no work today. Unknown to Hans Rebecca had been spying on him from a near by building with binoculars. To her delight he was completely naked. Her eyes shifted down to his thick, pink cock when Hans unceremoniously started scratching his balls. She squeezed her thighs together at the sight. She had plans to break into his apartment when he wasn't at home. She yearned to wrap herself up in his duvet and smell his scent on his bed sheets. Just the thought of wearing his clothes and touching his belongings thrilled her. Breaking into this apartment would be easier now that bitch Elsa wasn't around. Rebecca had an even more delightful view of Hans' sculptured buttocks when he turned around and bent over. He had some extensive bruising to the bottom of his back from his drunken fall. Shortly after he bent over Rebecca witnessed Hans wafting has hand in front of his backside. Has he just farted? Rebecca thought to herself and snorted into her hand with amusement. Seeing the way Hans had wrinkled his nose at the offensive odour confirmed that he had. Rebecca found it highly entertaining witnessing Hans doing such typical 'guy' things. She caught him picking his nose the day before.

Elsa couldn't help but smirk when she opened up her food cupboard and spotted the jar of jalapenos. The last time she had cooked with them was when Hans came over to have dinner and upset his delicate stomach. She grabbed a granola bar from the cupboard and tossed them in her bag before heading out of her apartment. She had an appointment to get her nails done. As she made her way outside her apartment building Elsa heard her phone ring, it was Maria. "Hey Maria" Elsa said answering the call accidentally hitting the speakerphone button when she did. No one was around so she left it on.

"Darling, Hans has agreed for you to do a shoot with him on Friday at two o'clock." Elsa was overcome with dread. She had a hunch that the whole time they will be together Hans would just attempt to try and win her back with some lame excuse. In reality she needed to make her new collection a success for both herself and Maria and would have to suck it up and deal with it.

"Okay I'll be there. I will catch up with you after the shoot is done." Elsa replied.

"Look forward to it darling, ciao" Maria said ending the call.

Rebecca had been standing near Elsa's apartment building and had heard the entire conversation between Maria and Elsa. She was livid that Elsa would have to continue to work with Hans which only meant that she still wasn't completely out of Hans' life as she'd anticipated. Rebecca would have to think of something quick to stop Elsa from seeing him and act upon it to ensure Hans would belong to her and only her. Cautiously she began to follow Elsa to the beauty salon.
