Molly barked announcing Jaden's arrival. Quickly, we pulled apart before the door opened. I fixed my clothes unable to meet his gaze, suddenly shy with the man I had just been passionately kissing. At least, we were only kissing.

Jaden stood at the door while Molly jumped hoping to get picked up. He slowly walked into the room ignoring the pup.

"Hello," he said looking from Yoongi to me with a quizzical gaze that held a twinge of jealousy.

"Evening," Yoongi said, "I'll be going, Jina."

"Thank you again," I said as he retreated out the door shoulders hunched under the scrutiny of the silvery moon.

My heart thumped in my chest as Jaden's gaze turned from the door to me. "What was he doing here?"

I straigtend myself up feeling the anger rise in me. How dare he question me when he had been out all night and hadn't returned my phone calls. "Better yet, why don't you tell me why you are so late?" I countered defensively.

I could tell he knew he was in the wrong by the way his eyes couldn't meet mine. He was probably at some bar drinking with his friends and flirting with everyone in a skirt.

"I'm sorry," he said dropping his gaze. "I know I promised I would be here but I lost track of time."

"You could have lost me," I answered.

I wanted him to feel bad. I wanted him to worry about me for once. To feel the pain of being ignored and made to feel like I was nothing but a housemate.

"What? What happened Jina?"

"I was attacked," my voice quivered as tears threatened to fall. I couldn't help feeling sorry for myself. Jaden's inattention was more painful than the ordeal I had gone through tonight.

Jaden quickly closed the space between us putting his arms around me. "Are you alright?"

Tears welled in my eyes as he held me. I felt lost, neglected, and guilty. "Let go of me... I need space." I didn't want to give in so easily. One 'I'm sorry,' was not enough for all the pain he had caused today and in the past.

"Sorry, you're still angry with me," he said more as a statement than a question.

As tired as I felt, I wanted to lash out at him. "You've been drinking, Jaden. You're a fucking mess and I can't even count on you to help me with anything."

"Don't attack me just cause you were attacked! It's not my fault! I work very hard and I need to unwind."

"Right, nothing is ever your fault. Your best excuse is you are never here. I give up."

"You, give up? How about you tell me what that guy was doing here with you in the dark."

"He was keeping me company until you came home. Look how late it is. Do you know how embarrassed I am? He didn't want to leave me alone what with what happened."

"Why didn't you call me?"

"Check your phone. I did."

"I'm so sorry. I won't drink anymore. I promise," he said dropping his gaze to the floor.

"I always think something bad is going to happen to you but instead it happened to me."

"I always come home. Don't I? I always come home to you," he said coming closer.

"It's not enough. I don't know if I want to try anymore. You don't give, Jaden. You only take."

"Please, give me a chance. You shouldn't decide something like this when you're upset," he said.

"Okay, I'm weary. I just want to sleep. I promise you I'll think about it."

"Good," he said.

"Jaden."

"Yes?"

"Think of me. Think of me or you'll lose me."

Well, here we go. Another love triangle. Hope you guys like this one. I want to explore the past for both couples, what brought them together and what pulled them apart. Every relationship has its ups and downs but what ultimately determines if you stay or if you go.
