Her Ex's Boss

Day before

Jade was sitting in a diner waiting for Nate to show up. She had something to get off her chest.

Nate walked up to the table and sat across from Jade.

"Hey so what you wanted to talk about?" he asked.

Jade clasped her hands together.

Nate started to feel nervous like he was at a job interview.

"Yea I thought about it, and I decided that I'm going to tell Jacob."

Nate's eyes grew wide

"What I thought we both agreed nothing happened, so it's all good."

"No, it's not all good... I can't keep it a secret from Jacob."

"You can't tell him, Jade, I'm his brother he'd kill me like Adam did his brother over Eve."

"That's not how it..."

Jade decided not to let Nate distract her.

"My mind is made up, and I'm telling him." She said.

"But nothing happened." Nate pleaded.

Nate knew if Jacob found out then he would probably have his head. For even attempting to kiss Jade. Also thought it was the right thing, he didn't want Jade to tell.

"Exactly and the sooner I tell him, the better Jade sat back and crossed her arms.

A waitress walked up to their table.

"Are you two ready to order?" She asked through a big grin too one of her teeth were missing.

"Can You give us a minute?" Jade quickly spoke up.

Once the waitress left, they resumed the conversation.

Nate sighed.

"So how soon are you planning to tell him?" He asked.

"Tomorrow after he leaves rehab."

"Do you think that's a good idea?" Nate questioned."

"Look if I wait until later or Jacob finds out he's going to kick your ass, so I'm doing you a favor." Jade snapped.

Nate looked at her.

"You are now the female version on Jacob."

Then he stood up and walked out.

Jade said nothing.

"Are you ready to order now mam?" The waitress asked.

She picked up the menu taking a glance.

"Yes, I want the French toast plate with extra bacon and apple juice. Jade ordered casually.

The next day.

After Jade dropped the girls off, she started her two hour drive out of the city.

Since Jacob didn't want the media attention, he decided to go to a rehab center the next town over. As she was driving, she glanced at her duffel bag Jacob told her to pack an overnight bag.

Jade was filled with excitement and uncertainty she was excited to see Jacob after not hearing from him a month. Unsure about the future and how he will take the news about Nate.

She followed her GPS to realize she was a fancy hotel.

Jade wasn't surprised since she was sure Jacob was trying to get some.

She parked and texted Jacob to tell him that she was there.

Then she walked inside the hotel making her way to the bar where he said he was. Just sitting there in a white T-shirt and jeans. As she made her way up to him, she noticed he had a slight beard.

"Hey, Jade he turned to her as she sat on the bar stool next to him.

"Hey... so how was rehab?" She asked.

He scratched his head.

"It wasn't the best experience, but I don't plan on doing it again." He told her.

Jade looked at him.

"So does that mean you're done with drugs for good?"

He nodded.

"Yes because I've done a lot of thinking and I don't want to lose you or the girls Your the only person in a long time who care about me and not my money."

"I told that from the beginning that I didn't care about your money."

Although Jade had to admit it was a bonus.

She felt her insides nagging her.

She looked at Jacob.

I got to tell you something.."

"What's that he asked.

"A few weeks ago Nate came over to help with Lovely and before he left he tried to kiss me... however, I stopped him, and nothing happened."

Jacob sat back quietly.

"Nothing happened she reassured him.

"I know that he chuckled.

Jade looked at him confused.

"Wait..what?"

"I checked the security footage this morning I kept rewinding the part where it shows his face after you slammed the door." He explained.

"So you know everything Jade asked.

He nodded

"Yea I had a feeling but I just to see."

"See what if you can trust me," Jade said getting offended.

"No, I already trust you, being honest with me validated it even more."

one thing Jacob loved about Jade was her honesty.

Jade blushed.

"So you said you got a room," She flirted.

"Of course I did you want to see how nice it is," he winked.

"How about I show you something nice Jade teased.

They got up and made their way to the hotel room where they spent "quilty" time with each other.

The next morning

Jacob was sitting on the big comfy hotel bed shirtless and in boxers eating breakfast when Jade stepped out of the bathroom wrapped in a towel her usually straight hair was wet and curly.

"Hey, baby so I wanted to ask you something?"

"Ask away," Jade said digging in her bag fid clothes.

"Do you want to get married?"

Jade turned and looked at him.

"We are getting married remember."

He shook his head

"No, I mean today..."

"You want to get married today..how."

"We could just go to the courthouse and make it official and since we in a different town no paparazzi or cameras will catch it."

Jade had finally finished putting clothes and sat on the bed next to Jacob who put his arm around her.

She thought about it at. First, she wanted a big wedding, but as time went on, she realized there wasn't anyone she wanted to invite and did most things by herself.

"I know you said you want a big wedding and I'll give you that, but it will have to be after we move," Jacob explained.

She turned to him.

"Or you can use the money to go on a nice honeymoon instead she grinned.

"Are you saying..."

"Yes let's get married," Jade said excitedly as she and Jacob kissed.

Another long chapter ????

Was Jade right for telling Jacob?
