(Love) Contract

A talk between two men

Tara’s POV

I swallowed thickly I knew I had no other chance then to pick up, I couldn’t get around it anymore and I didn’t have Matt or Brian to take that burden off of me right now.
“Tara? Are you okay?” Jimmy’s concerned voice sounded next to me, while I still stared at the blinking screen of my phone.
“I.. I have to…” I stuttered while the phone went silent. I breathed out in relief, but knowing it wouldn’t do any good…
Wouldn’t help me out of this…
And soon the ringing started again.
“You don’t have to pick up, Tara.” Jimmy was about to grab the phone from my hand but I shook my head, closing my fingers around it even tighter.

“I have to… we don’t have a way around it anymore, Jimmy.” I breathed deeply in and out until I touched the green button and held the phone to my ear.
“Hello?” My voice sounded weak, I didn’t like that, I wasn’t weak… never wanted to feel weak again and especially not because of him.
“Look who made it to the phone, finally? Don’t tell me I interrupted some… important things.” John’s voice sounded through the phone and I swallowed the lump in my throat.
I wouldn’t let him dictate me anymore.

“What do you want John?” My voice was stronger now.
“You know what I want, babe… We could have cleared the situation earlier, honey… Just you and me, but now I don’t want to talk to you anymore. I want to talk to the lover boy… Is he near? Or do you rather spent your time cheating on him with the big boss? Have you always been like that Tara? Did you betray me too?” He asked and I heard the chuckle in his voice, knowing what he meant, betray him like he betrayed me, over and over…
Only hearing his voice made me sick, how could I have ever been together with him? Thought I loved him?
I couldn’t understand.
“He is-” I was about to say not here, but the door swung open showing Brian and Matt.

Jimmy walked over and told them whispering what’s going on.
Brian walked towards me, easing the death grip from the phone and kissed my forehead before taking over.
“Haner.” Brian said and then he put the phone on speaker.
“Oh hello there… I thought you weren’t home.” John’s voice taunted.
“I am now. Why are you calling again, didn’t I make myself clear the last time, leave us alone.” Brian said and I knew that this wouldn’t have a good ending, couldn’t have a good ending, we didn’t even talk about everything yet.

“I did hear you, my friend. I thought from man to man, we should have a talk about your girlfriend.” John said and I widened my eyes, oh no.
He would tell him lies… so many lies… Brian can’t believe them.. but John could be too convincing, I made a step forward but Brian stopped me with a hand.
“I don’t think we need to talk about anything. And I am not your friend.” Brian said and Jimmy walked up to Brian whispering something in his ear I couldn’t understand.

Brian’s POV

I had no idea what I should be doing on the phone with this guy. A guy that took so much away from Tara, who hurt her so bad… made her question life.
But she came out strong, I admired that…
I didn’t even want to talk with that guy, had no idea how we should approach it and when he said something about a man to man talk I blocked off.
Knowing he just wanted to spread his lies…
“Go with the flow… let him tell you… see where it gets you.. maybe he will think of you as a friend..” Jimmy whispered in my ear and I frowned.
‘Why?’ I mouthed.
“You got something better?” Jimmy shrugged and he was right, I didn’t.

“Okay, what’s your name? John, right?” I asked and heard a chuckle on the other end of the line.
“Yes, indeed. So I got you curious, huh? Want to know something about your girlfriend? Maybe something you didn’t know?” John asked and Tara had panic in her eyes.
Matt walked towards her sensing it and I was about to make a step forward, blocking his way but thought better of it.
He just wanted to comfort her, Matt as if sensing my turmoil held up his hands in a gesture of ‘I mean no harm’ and I nodded.
“Tell me.” I said to John.
“Fine, so… first of all… I may have information for you, that would interest you… but I don’t think I can give it to you so easily, bro. I like to have a little payback for it.” John began to bargain and I rolled my eyes.

Of course he would want something for the information I knew already, which was false but well… we couldn’t get out on that one that easily.
“Well, how do I know you don’t just tell me a lie… and how do I know it will interest me whatever information you got there?” I asked him and John laughed loudly suddenly and I frowned, god he was really a sick bastard.
“Well, I can promise you that you will want to know this. Maybe we should meet? I can give you a prove on what my information is, how does that sound like.”

‘A prove’ I mouthed at Matt and he looked clueless, so he didn’t mention that before.
“Well, what prove? I don’t seem to get what you want to talk to me about? It has something to do with Tara, right? You got some bad experience, you wanna warn me about or what?” I asked and tried to get more information.

Tara looked at me with big eyes as if afraid I would believe any bullshit this guy would tell me, she should know me better than that.
“Well, not exactly, but I could clue you in on some parts of her… I think.” John said and I had to roll my eyes.
“Okay, right. So when do you want to meet. I think we should get this out in the open, you really made me curious on what you know.” I told him and I could hear the excitement in the next words coming from John.
“That’s perfect. Alright, well… Have you any travelling to do in the next days?” He asked eager and I looked over to Matt and Jimmy, not having our schedule in my head… as always.
Matt thought for a moment then shook his head and Jimmy just shrugged his shoulders with a grin.

“Not that I know of right now.” I said vague.
“Well, then we could meet in Portland? Or I could meet you there, I would love to see Tara again.” I could hear the smirk in his voice and vehemently shook my head at the idea, would be bad enough if I would have to meet with him, but I wouldn’t want Tara near him at all costs.
“Fine, I can come to Portland.” Tara’s wide eyes begged me not to, I could see it but there was no way I will let her come near him, so I had to come to him.
“Very good. When? I think we shouldn’t waste any precious time, should we?” John asked and I thought for a moment.
“I need to check my schedule, will send you a message afterwards, that okay?” I asked him.
“Yes, sure. Don’t wait too long though.” With that he hung up and I looked perplexed at the phone.

“What in freaking hell did you agree to?” Tara walked towards me and looked more than pissed.
“What do you mean? Was there any other way?” I asked her and looked over at Matt and Jimmy.
“I bet he will call me next.” Matt said and walked towards us.
“Why?” Jimmy asked still not knowing all of the story.
“Because… well he saw something he shouldn’t, and want to get the best out for him now… we have to think about this… make a plan before sending him a day to meet…” Matt said and I nodded.
