Your ex boyfriend had cheated on you and left you heartbroken a couple months ago. He had slept with your best friend and now they were dating. So instead of moping about it, you decided to make that situation come and bite him in the ass.
You got in contact with his father, Marley. You planned to just tell him about it and get Charlie in trouble, but then Marley started talking to you more and sent you daily texts to ask how you were.
Fast forward a couple months, you and him started dating. And he was an absolute gentleman. He always made time for you, always made sure you were comfortable and okay.
You really did love him. And it made it better to imagine the horror on Charlies face when he realises you’re dating his dad.
Marley was 37. Him and Charlies mother had him when they were only 17, and his mother died when Charlie was about three. Marley did everything to raise him, and he was so disappointed that Charlie cheated on you.
But he was also grateful. Because if he hadn’t, he never would’ve had the chance to love you like you deserved.
You and him were cuddling in his penthouse, you wearing one of his shirts and him shirtless and in some baggy sweatpants. He was gently stroking your back and occasionally kissing your forehead.
