I own nothing.

I stared at the diamond engagement ring Nate had given me. I never got the chance to return it. It's okay though, because now I have a new one from someone I really love.

Maybe I should talk to Nate. We haven't spoken since I found him cheating on me with Tawny Hart.

As soon as I thought that I heard a knock on the door.

"NATE?!" I pulled my robe tighter, "What are you doing here?!"

"Sonny, baby I am so sorry! James told me where you were." he snaked his arms around my waist.

"Nate we're done-" he cut me off with a kiss.

"Get OFF me!" I pushed him away just as Chad came downstairs.

"What the hell do you think you're doing?!" he ran over to us and pulled me away, "Are you okay honey?"

"Excuse me? Can I have my fiancée back?" Nate said, getting annoyed.

"She's not yours anymore!" Chad said angrily.

"Hello? Could you guys please stop talking about me like I'm not here?"

"Sorry. Look, Sonny, I never meant to-" Nate started.

"hurt me? Oh but you did! So I'm going to need you to leave. Now!" I turned him around and pushed him towards the door.

"Oh, and Nate?" Nate turned back around to glare at Chad, "if you ever come with in a three foot radius of my girl again, I will destroy you."

"... we'll see Cooper. We'll see." Nate muttered.

"Yeah, see you out the door." I said, continuing to push him out the door.

Even after Nate was gone Chad was still tense.

"Chad it's okay." I hugged him around the waist. I felt him soften slightly.

The next day I found myself once again staring at Nate's ring. Chad was watching me from the other side of the room. I don't think he knew that I saw him. I knew he was concerned about my interest with the ring, but right now I couldn't bring myself to comfort him about. He could be as jealous as he wanted for now.

We stayed like that until I spoke out loud what I had been thinking.

"I should return it," out of the corner of my eye I saw him tense.

"Okay." he muttered. He walked over and I jumped up to face him.

"Its just weird, you know? Having this constant reminder of what happened."

"I get it."

"I guess I'll just go now." I turned to leave but he caught me around the waist.

"You know, we could always pawn it." I laughed at his suggestion.

"That sounds like more fun, but no. I'm going to have to face him eventually."

"Alright," he released me, "Good luck." I swear he was more nervous than I was. Which is really nervous.

I grabbed my keys off of the kitchen counter and left.

At first I thought he wasn't home, but then I saw a light flicker on. I wasn't getting away that easy.

I walked up the steps to the top floor and knocked on the door.

Unfortunately he answered.

"Sonny? Sonny! Hey! Come on in!" he looked really happy to see me. I had to remind myself that I hated him.

"Nate I'm not going to be here for long." realization crossed his face as he glanced at the ring case in my hands and the ring on my left ring finger.

"You're engaged to him, huh? You couldn't even wait a month?!" his expression was angry. He had no right to be mad at me! Not after all he did.

"Don't you dare try and blame this on me! You cheated on me! Should I be sorry for not crying my eyes out for a month?! Is that what you wanted Nate?!" I crossed my arms.

"What did you want from me Sonny? Huh? I'm only a person!" What did I want from him?

I threw the ring case at his feet. It broke open and the ring clinked across the floor.

"Love." I turned around and walked through the hall and down the stairs, not once looking back to see his reaction.

That was the last time I actually spoke to Nate White.
