The Ex Games 3
You hooked up with him, hoping that meant that he wanted you back, but instead he treated you like shit again and you found out he had a fiancée and a son. Then you slept with him again and he treated you like shit again. And now you want to leave the job and forget any of this ever happened.”
    “I guess that’s why you’re the lawyer.” I gave her a half smile. “You got it all in one paragraph.”
    “Well, I’m no longer employed as a lawyer.” She made a face. “But this is one hell of a story.”
    “I know. I feel like a bit of a psycho,” I muttered, thinking about everything. “I can’t believe I’ve wasted so much time on this guy and he’s just an asshole.”
    “I agree that he’s an asshole, but I think he deserves to know the truth ,” Meg said softly, and I looked up into her earnest eyes with a frown. “I know it’s hard, Katie. And you probably try not to think about it, but I think you need to tell him what happened. Maybe that’s part of the reason why you can’t move on.”
    “It hurts too much.” I bit my lower lip, desperately trying to forget what I’d done.
    “But at least you know.” Meg leaned over and rubbed my shoulder. “He doesn’t even know.”
    “Yeah, I guess. I just never want to see him again ,” I groaned.
    “Don’t lie, Katie.” Meg laughed. “You love him. There’s nothing wrong with that, but I do agree. It’s time to move on. I think he’s being an asshole and he’s cheating on his fiancée. He’s not a nice guy. Yeah, he has a son and seems to love him, but why would he potentially ruin his family by sleeping with you? He’s an egomaniac and a jerk. He likes the power of taking whatever woman he feels like taking. He doesn’t seem to care about you at all. I mean, why would he be doing all of this?”
    “I just don’t get it. I know I lied when we dated. I know I hurt him. But he hurt me too.” I sighed. “I don’t know why he is still trying to hurt me.”
    “Maybe you need to have an honest conversation with him. Tell him everything and ask him to let you be. You need to move on, Katie. Meet a new guy. A nice guy.”
    “I kinda met someone.” I made a face. “Well, we kissed.”
    “What? You met someone and didn’t tell me?” Meg looked at me , clearly hurt.
    “Just recently. And I’m not really interested in him. He’s a bartender at Getting Lucky’s. He kinda gave me a kiss and hinted that he’d like to do more.”
    “Is he hot?”
    “He’s sexy and hot.” I laughed and then sighed. “I just can’t think of anyone else that way though.”
    “Katie, you need to stop letting this guy ruin all your potential relationships. He is not worth it.” Meg shook her head. “Have a final conversation with him. End it. And move on.”
    “Yeah, I guess you’re right.” I sipped on my wine. “Someone has been texting me all night. Let me see if it’s him.”
    “If it’s him, tell me what he said and I will tell you what to text back.”
    “Argh, okay.” I laughed, jumped up, and grabbed my phone. “Okay, here are his texts. First one. ‘Hey Katie, I hope you’re enjoying your night in. If you want company let me know.’” I laughed. “Sure, Brandon. I’m going to text you right now.”
    “Read the rest.”
    “Okay, number two. ‘Hey Katie, I sure hope you’re not doing anything you’re going to regret right now.’”
    “What does that mean?” Meg frowned.
    “No idea.” I shrugged. “Okay, number three. ‘Katie, I need you to call me right now.’ Number four. ‘Katie, text me back or call now.’ Number five. ‘Katie, stop playing games. Call me now.’ Number six. ‘Katie, I don’t know what the fuck you’re doing, but call me now.’ What the fuck is his problem?” I groaned, but inside I felt a secret excitement that he wanted to talk to me so badly.
    “He is sounding like a psycho.” Meg made a face. “What is his problem? He is on such a power trip. Does he expect you to drop everything for
