Gemini waited patiently for Layton to arrive she memorized the usual time he came home and couldn’t help but get impatient. Then Arlene showed up. She was kind of annoyed that Layton refused to have sex with her but she had to understand.
“He’s still not here,” The girl asked annoyed.
“No, not yet but I herd Striders close.” The woman said as she handed Gemini a glass of juice.
“I thought I and him were close.” Gemini sighed feeling disappointed.
“Why say so?” Before Gemini could talk there was a knock on the door and Strider came walking in. He wasn’t really glad to see Gemini.
“Strider your back, I heard things didn’t turn out well.” Arlene walked over to him.
“Yeah, Layton wasn’t happy to hear it either,” Strider said as he stared at Gemini.
“What happened?” The woman asked curiously.
“We’ll talk later.” The woman understood why he said those words and simply nodded.
“What did Layton say?”
“He said nothing, he just said you will take over and that he would call later .” The beta said and made his way to the kitchen where Gemini was.
“Alright you can take your leave I’ll take care of her.” She nodded and said her goodbyes then left.
Layton was invited to attend his fellow manager’s wedding as he was remarrying and brought Gemini with him. They made it through the ceremony and were now at the after-party. It was odd that he was marrying due to his age. Gemini had to admit that the décor was amazing, the place had a delicate color with unique decorations she did hope that her wedding would be even better than this. She held Layton’s arm and walked close to him.
“This place is amazing, marrying a rich guy is amazing.” She giggled as she saw Layton’s disappointed expression.
“It was just a joke.” They walked to the newly wedded couple. Layton’s manager’s wife was young and beautiful just like his ex-wife, he just hoped she didn’t agree to marry his boss just for his money.
“I am glad you made it Layton, this is Jennifer, my wife.” The couple giggled. Layton had always been such good friends with his boss. Layton took out his hand to shake Jennifer so did Gemini.
“Who’s that with you?” Robert Layton’s boss asked pointing at Gemini.
“This is my fiancée. Her name is Gemini.”
“Wow, she’s pretty. We should really get some time to know each other. Don’t you think so dear?” Jennifer said as she smiled at Gemini.
“Yes, I do think so,” Robert replied before Layton could talk Jennifer pulled Gemini to a nearby table.
“Gosh you must feel really lucky getting married to him, I mean he sounds like a really nice guy you know,” Gemini said and the bride sighed.
“I just don’t know if I made a good decision, people are criticizing me cause of his age. I don’t even know if it will be possible for us to have a kid” The girl started to tear and Gemini held her shoulder trying to comfort her.
“Hey if you love him then it’s okay. You don’t have to care what the others would say.” The bride sniffed and nodded.
“I envy you Gemini but anyway enough about me let’s talk about you. How’s it going?”
“Fine I could say, I never thought I and him would fall in love.” She turned in Layton’s direction then smiled.
“I didn’t know he had a fiancée I mean Robert always talked about Layton but I’ve never heard about you.” Gemini wondered why Layton never told them about her. It was disappointing for her.
“I wonder why.” Jennifer held Gemini’s hand tightly.
“We could have been really close friends you know.” Gemini thought it was a great idea as she didn’t really have friends. Layton could not allow it through since Jennifer is pure human but that didn’t stop Gemini from befriending the young girl.
“Why can’t we? Your husband’s friends with my fiancée so why can’t we.” Gemini suggested and Jennifer giggled.
“What happened to his ex-girlfriend, I heard there were some issues that happened.” Gemini sighed remembering Andrea and how she treated her the first time they met.
“Layton told me she framed him and left him.” Jennifer gasped.
“Similar thing happened to Robert but instead she stole his money and ran off.” Gemini felt more connected with Jennifer than ever and felt that they would be close friends.
“Must be hard for him to trust you.” Jennifer nodded, with that they became even closer.
Gemini and Jennifer talked and laughed. Robert handed Layton a drink.
“I never knew you were back on your feet,” Robert said meaning he and Gemini.
“Fresh start but she’s different and I really like her,” Layton admitted. “What about Jennifer? I never expected you to get married after everything. ” Robert sighed knowing he was making a bold move but he also grew feelings for Jennifer.
“She’s also different and I love her.” They both laughed. Robert’s first wife was just like Andrea but even worse, she married him stole his money, and ran away with another guy.
“You two haven’t gotten married yet.” Layton nodded.
“Being careful?” Robert joked.
“No, it’s just that I feel like she needs some time before we rush.” Robert nodded knowing Layton’s thinking.
