Maya's Pov:

After that crazy hour of non ending heartbreaking events, I cut off all what links me the outside reality and shut my self home. I didn't know what to do or how I should act. My mind kept on telling me to forget about Ian. But my heart even though broken kept on beating rapidly at the mention of that stupid man's name. 

The image of them kissing replied in my mind again and again and every time it made my eyes water. Ian and Rose both kept on calling me and  didn't answer them at all. When going to put my phone on silent mood, it rang again but the caller was neither of those former two. It was jack and my heart broke a little for him as I remembered how I convinced him that his wife adores him only, how he bought flowers and chocolates for her and was ready to ask for forgiveness. Yet the scene that met him ripped his heart apart and made him seethe in anger.

"Maymay..." Jack said sounding tipsy or even drunk as ever

"Jack where are you?" I questioned as I got tensed knowing that he is not used to drinking at all

"In a bar...I tried to forget her...I really did...But I couldn't....I love her...She is carrying my baby...But I guess I am not good enough for her." He ranted between hiccups and I felt pain imaging how this once strong man may look right now; broken, crying and lonely.

"I know Jack. I know...Jack how are you going back home?" I questioned him but there was only silence 

"Jack?" I questioned again yet nothing

"Hello?" a different manly voice greeted after a second 

"Hello, who is this?" I questioned rapidly in an alert tone

"This is the bartender of the bar "VIP", your friend here just passed out and I don't know exactly where to send him if I call a cab for him." the man informed me 

"Give me the address. I will come and pick him up." I answered in a heartbeat because Jack has been one of my closest friends and he deserves to be saved after the harsh day that he had.

I dressed really quickly or let's say that I changed shirts and kept on my sweatpants, wear my shoes and left in a rush. I followed the instructions that the bartender gave me and in half an hour I was in front of this huge bar. The sounds that were erupting from it were different; songs, yells, loud laughter and the lights that illuminated it were vibrant and different. Entering to such bar wasn't the easiest thing. The line in front of it was long because this bar turned up to be the number one go to new bar. Stupid Jack even when sad he kind of does it with style.

When finally entering, different smells hit my nose and I found that most of them were revoking. I was never into alcohol. I couldn't bare loosing my conciseness and I don't even know how people can do that and make themselves so vulnerable.   About vulnerability, I must find Jack then go back to my unfinished tub of ice cream. Searching around, I didn't see him anywhere. But suddenly I felt someone pulling my elbow and while I turned around I came face to face by none other than my heart breaker.

"What are you doing here?" Ian asked in a possessive kind of way and I glared at him angrily.

"None of your business." I yelled over the music and tried to pull my arm out of his tightening hand

"Let me drive you home." He ordered 

"I ride only with people that I trust." I meanly said to him and saw pain and regret flashing in his orbs. I didn't want to hurt him but he already broke my heart and lost my trust.

"May, I swear I didn't do a thing." He promised again 

"You could have pulled away. You could have pushed her away. But no, for the second time I catch you getting intimate and close with her and I cannot take that. I just couldn't live my life questioning if you will once again want her." I said brokenly and finally drew my hand away from his.

"May..." He uttered and even words failed him because I knew deep down he still loves her.

"Excuse me now but I have to go and correct the mess that you guys did." I informed him, turned around and went away in the bar's direction.

"What mess? What do you mean? Why are you here? May ..." Ian kept on following me through the sea of bodies and annoyingly asking thousands of questions but I decided to ignore him. 

Catching a glimpse of Jack I ran to him. The view of him broke my heart. His head rested on the bar as he used his hands as a pillow. He seemed tired, exhausted even and some dry tears were still clear on his cheeks. Dear god this man is broken! 

"Jack? Jack?" I tried to shake him awake but nothing 

"Does Rose know about his state?" Ian asked as he watched me trying to help jack...his only concern is about Rose ! I nearly yelled at him but why embrace myself publicly for a man who doesn't care about my broken heart.

"Excuse me? Can I get a cup of water?" I asked the bartender 

"Sure" he replied and in a second a cup was there on the counter waiting for me to give it to Jack

"Jack come on please drink this. So we can go." I pleaded him and he for once started to react.

"May?" Ian urgently called again but I ignored him

"Sweatpants for the most go to bar?" The bartender teased and that's when I directed my attention to him and took a good look at him. He was my age or probably a year older. He looked a bit like a surfer boy with blond curls and bright brown eyes. 

"well they are the comfiest." I replied and sensed Ian taking a step closer to me

"Sure hell are, so you are the girl I talked to on the phone?" He asked and I nodded 

"May let's go" Ian for a reason angrily hushed at me

"May that's a pretty name. I am Andrew by the way." the bartender Aka Andrew said offering a bright smile and an extended hand 

"It is Maya and nice to meet you." I smiled at him and saw that Jack is kind of awake now

"Maya do you want some help with him? My shift just ended and I can take him to your car." Andrew offered 

"No!" Ian roared at both us 

"actually yes, I need some help." I corrected ignoring how close to me Ian got and how he acted so possessively.

"May." Ian now uttered in a hurt questioning tone so I turned to him and his eyes were full of different troubled emotions.

"Go home Ian." I sweetly ordered him as Andrew helped Jack up and waited for me to walk them to my car.

"So is that your boyfriend?" Andrew asked as we walk to my car

"He is ...It is complicated." I replied in a sad tone 

"Who is this?" Andrew again questioned but this time pointed at Jack

"My best friend's husband." I answered introducing the latter

"Why did he call you? are you both like cheating !"  Andrew continued his twenty questions game

"No, he is my other best friend and his wife and him fought." I informed him again

"So you have no boyfriend?" He asked as I opened the  backseat's door for him so he can help Jack in 

"Kind of..." I answered after a long silence 

"Well..." Andrew continued after getting Jack in and slamming the car door shut "If it is okay with you I would love to get your number and see if we can go out someday soon." 

"I...I..." I didn't know how to answer

"Her number is (number)" Jack ranted from the car window while showing Andrew his phone screen of my number 

"Thank you buddy but I want her to give it to me." Andrew joked and put emphasis on "her" as I awkwardly gasped at Jake's friendly drunken nature.

" So?" Andrew asked and I couldn't help but think that this might be my chance at moving forward and starting something real.

"it is (.....)" I said giving my number and saw a friendly smile on Andrew's face

"Thanks Maymay." Andrew teased as he used the name he saw on Jack's phone

"Yeah...Yeah now goodnight Andy." I tried to tease him back and his smile just grew wider

"Goodnight." he replied back waved and started to take steps to a car near by

"Goodnight Andy." Jack yelled in seconds and that made Andrew and I chuckle in laughter
