She was also hopelessly beautiful.
Leonel had never strayed since tying the knot. Infidelity was never his style.
Post-sx, he felt better physically but still a little hollow in his heart and he yearned for a stroll.
Grabbing the car keys downstairs, he ventured out.
It was a cold summer night.
Cracking the window, he aimlessly wandered for half an hour before his phone buzzed. It was James calling.
Why arent you snuggled up with your wife? How do you have the time to ring me instead? Leonels gravelly voice sounded smooth.
James, buttering him up for a favor, invited him out. Come on, Leonel. Weve got a private room booked. Even Edwins here.
Surprised by Edwins rare outing, Leonel inquired about Marcus.

Why does Marcus matter? James snapped.
People might start to think you married him since you care about him so much. Anyways, hes turned into a homebody. Out of ten times I asked him out, he never showed up once; hes too stuck at home with his girl these days. Forget him.
Leonel grinned, though a hint of bitterness and envy colored his expression.

James had gathered his usual crew, including Edwin.

Surprisingly, Edwin was really there, accompanied by Laura, buried in her phone. Despite her silence, nobody dared tease her, as Edwin always had her back.
Leonel, who, being older than Edwin, couldnt resist a jab.
Seated beside Edwin, Leonel smirked. Had I known Id be witnessing this lovefest, Id have stayed home. James isnt straight with us.
James laughed, filling Leonels glass.
With a keen eye, Edwin leaned back, grinning. Hey, Leonel, whats the time? Have you just freshened up? Will it be home or hotel tonight?
Leonel chuckled. Straight from home, buddy. You know Im whipped; need to heed your sisters orders.
Others might buy it, but Edwin saw through it.
Knowing Laura would be uncomfortable with Leonel around to tease her, Edwin gently nudged her. Ease up on the games, babe. Funs over. Lets bail.
Laura flushed with frustration.
He was the one dragging her here in the first place; but now he made it seem like she wanted to come.
