Brittany was silent for a moment then a smack rang out She raised her hand and slapped Horace s palm away
Why don t you go find your first love After all these years I ve been gone have you two been sleeping in the bed we once shared
Horace’seyesdarkenedwithcoldfury.”HowmanytimesdoIhavetosaythis?Nothingeverhappened betweenIdaandme!”

Brittany Horace growled
Why so serious Brittany smiled What didI say that hit a nerve Or are you trying to say you haven t been with a single woman in twenty years I won t buy it
Horace’sgazelockedonherpartedredlips,andwithoutwarning,heleaneddownandkissed her.
M mph Brittany s eyes widened and she immediately pushed him away
Horace caught both her wrists and pinned them against the wall his kiss turning possessive and demanding as he pried open her lips and tookover completely
Brittany flushed deeply Neither of them was young anymore but she hadn t expected Horace to still kiss her like this
Let go of me she demanded
Brittany bit the corner of Horace s mouth hard
A sharp his s escaped him Horace winced in pain wiping his lip and noticing blood He was about to speak when a voice interrupted
“Horace.”
Brittany looked up Ida had arrived
Without hesitation Brittany shoved Horace away and he took a step back
Ida approached and immediately noticed the blood on Horace slip concern flashing across her face Why are you bleeding
Then she glanced at Brittany with a soft almost fragile expression Brittany it s so good to have you back You ve misunderstood me and Horace We re just close friends He only kept me around all these years because he felt sorry forme If I m the reason you re fighting I can move outright now and never see him again
Brittany gave Ida a cold sharp look She knew Id was nothing but a manipulative and scheming burned badly by Ida before
“No, thanks.I’mnolongerinterestedinknowingwhatkindofrelationshipyouhavewithHorace.He’sjustamanInolongerwant.Youcankeephim.”

Brittany stepped closer to Ida and whispered with a smile I ve been gone for over twenty years and I hear you still haven t become Mrs Larson It s a little disappointing
Alda s fragile facade nearly cracked The words hit a painful spot deep inside
Brittany pressed on You should work harder You re not exactly young anymore You re over forty right Honestly I almost feel sorry for you Maybe it was acceptable to be the other woman and sneak after someone else s husband at twenty but at forty That s just a little too old for that game
Ida s expression darkened instantly as her fists clenched tightly
Brittany certainly hit a nerve
Brittany glanced at Horace one last time Bye Mr Larson
With that she turned and walked away
Ida quickly collected herself and moved beside Horace
