Aiden was in a tea shop in Diagon Alley, waiting for Chase. he needed to talk to the man and apologize for what he did. Well, it wasn't really his fault. Brent started it and Aiden just look a while to pull away. He couldn't be blamed entirely. But Aiden knew that he had to speak to Chase. It was for his and Jackie's happiness now.
He sighed. Thinking back on how Jackie found out, Aiden was happy that Jackie knew how he felt. But it still scared Aiden to think that Jackie still hadn't answered him. But Aiden was willing to wait. he'd wait forever as long as its Jackie. His beloved Jackie.
Aiden looked down on his muggle watch. He wondered if Chase was even going to show up. He was sure that Chase hated him and would hex him to the next century if he could.

Chase didn't know why he decided to give Aidan a chance to explain what happened between him and Brent. Chase honestly didn't give a shit about what the fuck he had to say, but he decided to give him a try for Brent's sake. He had told Brent and Belle both he was going out, but didn't tell them where. He didn't think it was that important.
He walked into the tea shop, why he chose here; Chase wasn't sure. He looked around until he spotted Aidan sitting at a table. Chase took a deep breath before walking over to the table and sitting down. Glaring slightly at the guy that had tried to steal Brent from him. He didn't care if he had given up his chase for Brent. If he had found a guy now. He cared that this guy was breathing after he kissed Brent.
"What do you want, Aidan. I don't have a lot of time. Nor do I want to be here."

Aiden looked up, Chase had come. But he didn't look right. He was still mad. And Aiden couldn't blame him. "Please have a seat then. I shall make it quick so that you won't have to suffer being in front of me." Aiden said as he pointed to the empty seat across him. "I wanted to apologize for what happened. Though it wasn't really entirely my fault, I still am very sorry." Aiden began.
"I had loved Brent since we were little. And the fact that he kissed me first back then was just to irresistible. But then, it didn't feel right like I thought it would. Not because he had you. But because it was just then I realized that I didn't really love Brent the way I thought I did." Aiden explained, hoping he made sense.
"Mind you, I do love Brent. But not like the love you have for him. It's strange that it slapped me when Brent was kissing me. I realized that I love someone else. Someone who had been there for me threw hell and back again." He chuckled as he looked down at the picture of Jackie in his wallet. the picture of them both.
"So, you see Chase, I'm begging that you give me another chance to prove to you and Brent that I mean no harm this time. That I'd do anything to make you both happy. I'd even pay for you wedding but Brent won't allow me to do so." Aiden told Chase sincerely. He hoped the man would come to like him someday.

Chase sat down and listened to the fucking cold-hearted son of a bitch. Chase didn't really hate anyone. He wasn't that kind of person, yet this dude made him grind his teeth and glare. That was two un-Chase like behaviors. He had told himself from a young age that he was going to be a nice person. He couldn't be that to this fucker.
He understood everything Aidan had said, that didn't mean he was going to forgive him. "I'm not condoning what Brent did either... but do you realize what the fuck you made me do? I've never even thought about cheating before that day. Yet I was so upset about Brent cheating again, that I made out with my best friend. Who, by the way, ran off and got fucking raped by some fucking asshole named Jackie. Because he couldn't stand to be around me anymore." Chase told him, having to take a deep breath after he had finished speaking.
"No. I don't need your fucking money to pay for my wedding. I can do it perfectly fine, thanks."

Aiden sighed. he was hoping for a civilized conversation but it seems that he overestimated Chase Jackson. "No need for you to use such language nor do you need to raise your voice. I understand perfectly that you hate every fiber of me and that the thought of me helping makes you want to just kill someone." Aiden said calmly.
Then his eyes widen. Alex was raped? And Jackie raped him? Aiden remained his composure. "You cheated? On Alex? The other friend of yours?... Well, I'm sorry that you had do such a thing. however, I am more concerned with Alex. you said he was raped by a certain Jackie. Pray tell who this Jackie is?" Aiden asked.
He hoped that Jackie hadn't gone and done what he did. Aiden hoped that Alex Torres knew another man named Jackie. Aiden didn't want it to be his Jackie.

Chase just rolled his eyes. This dude would be one to comment on his swearing. He didn't give a shit about swearing in front of him. He was going to continue it. He was going to do it more often, actually. Just to fucking smite him.
"Yes. I fucking cheated. After I told Brent to leave because I was pissed off, Alex came over and we somehow ended up making out. He was upset about Jackie and some dude hurting him. I'm not sure. We didn't go into specifics." Chase told him. He didn't see why it was so fucking important. It was just mistake after mistake.
Chase took a deep breath. "Jackie something or other. He's fucking Italian or some shit. Dated Alex back in Hogwarts... stalked him. Tried to be the matron at Hogwarts after Maryn conveniently disappeared. I turned him in and he stayed at the Malfoys for a while before they deemed him innocent." Chase just shrugged. He really didn't want to talk about the fucking Jackie. He hated that dude more than he hated Aidan.

Aiden swallowed hard. That's why Jackie had gone missing for a while. And Jackie never mentioned where he went. Aiden trusted that Jackie wouldn't have gone and done something horrible. But he did. he sighed and turned to look back at Chase. "The reason I am asking you to watch your language is because we are in public. And you are a public figure. You're a Hogwarts teacher and I don't think Brent would like to hear that I allowed you to tarnish your own reputation by swearing and yelling in a public place." Aiden hissed.
then he pinched his nose. "I don't even know why I care about you running your name and professional status to the ground. But I do now. So lower your voice and stop swearing for merlin's sake!" he hissed again. People were looking at thme and were wondering what was going on. Then he took out his wand and cast a silencing charm over them. How could he have forgotten such a simple solution.
"Now, you can scream and swear all you want, Chase. And you said Italian? this Jackie is Italian? And what does he have to do with Maryn's disappearance?" Aiden asked calmly. He wanted to know details. It was about Jackie. And Jackie hadn't spoken to him in a while now.

Chase thought it was rather funny that Aidan was getting worked up about Chase yelling and swearing. He was the one that wanted to talk. He was the one that wanted to apologize, well now he fucking got what he wanted. A talk with Chase. Sorry the normal nice, calm, forgiving Chase wasn't available for the fucker that tried to steal the love of his life.
"I don't give a shit about other people. Don't you get that. If it wasn't for Rose, I'm not sure me and Brent would even still be together. She couldn't have come at a better time. Without her... I'm not sure where we would be." Chase said, a brief look flashing over his face that he wasn't even quite sure what was.
"Maryn is dead. And I think Jackie killed her. There isn't enough evidence though. So it's not like my thoughts convict him or anything." Chase seemed to be calming down. The thought of Rose always calming down his thoughts.

Aiden sighed in frustration. He pinched his nose again. "Alright. Enough with the swearing! I head is splitting up because of your words!" Aiden hissed again. he was trying not to lose his patience. he could kill Chase right then and there and he didn't care if anyone else say him do it.
Then he sighed, "I'm glad that your baby came then. Brent would have probably kill himself if he lost you and the child." Aiden said as he looked away. the thought of Brent dying was something he didn't want to think. "You really think that you could leave Brent? He'd die the moment you do. He loves you more that you think. Despite him being stupid for cheating, you still hold his heart and he'd come back home to you again." he added as he looked at the people outside the window.
"Didn't you know Chase? I asked Brent what he'd do if you left him? What to know what he said? He'd rather die than find someone else. He said he knew he was stupid for cheating but then again, he still loves you and would do anything to have you back." Aiden lied. Brent never said it but Aiden had to say something. And Aiden knew which emotions to use during this times.
"You're lucky to have him crawling back to you, you know that? I'd give anything to have your life! To have a life with Brent. But no. He wants you and only you. I don't know what he sees in you but its you his want so there's nothing else I can do but to let go. No point to chase after him when he wants no one else." Aiden said as he looked back at Chase.

Chase was getting aggravated. The dude didn't like swearing? What a big fucking joke. "I only said shit. What. Aiden no like swearing?" Chase said in a mock tone before he shut up and listened to what Aiden said about Brent and just well, everything.
It wasn't like Chase didn't know Brent loved him. Chase knew that. He wouldn't be marrying Chase if he didn't love him, but that wasn't the point. The point was he had still kissed Aiden. He had still cheated. Nothing else mattered besides that.
"Look. I know he loves me. And I know he wants me. But he still cheated, and he cheated with you. I'm not just going to forgive you. I'm going to try to get along with you, since apparently you're going to be at the dinner Green invited me to, but that's not the point. The point is how would you like it if whoever you're dating right now went out and cheated on you. Would you go and forgive the dude, or would you want to kill him?" Chase asked him simply. Trying not to swear, but not really caring if he was.

Aiden snapped his head towards Chase and looked serious. "Yes, I'd forgive whoever my partner cheated on me as long as he comes back to me. Because at the end of the day I still have him and not someone else. Because he loves me and he came back to me." Aiden answered Chase. He knew that what Aiden said wasn't the one Chase thought he might say but that's what Aiden wanted to say. "If your smart enough to be a Hogwarts teacher, you should be twice smarter to be thankful that at the end of the day, he came back to you and stayed with you. He makes mistakes, that's what makes Brent.. Well Brent." Aiden was losing his words now.
"Look Jack-Chase, I don't expect you to get along with me. I know that. I'm not daft. But the least you could do is be civilized about it. That in front of people we came seem like we could get through one day without having to hex each other to the next century. Brent and I are like brothers now. That's it. I don't think my partner would like to hear that I went to chase after him again. I'd be flayed alive." Aiden said and crossed his arms.
Aiden sighed, "However, if being civilized is a bit too much of a hassle for you, then I've overestimated you. I thought that a man of your caliber would swallowed and act right in public and wait for the perfect timing to just rant and scream when your in the safety of your home." Aiden added.

Every word Aiden kept sayign just made Chase hate him more and more. This guy was fucking pushing shit out of his mouth and toward Chase. For all he knew, his 'partner'[ was made up and just another way for Aiden to get closer to Brent. Chase knew that Brent was back now, and that was all that mattered. He fucking knew that. That wasn't the point. The point was Aiden wanted Brent, Aiden got Brent, Chase got mad.
"I don't scream and rant often. Actually. I don't do it ever. But I made an exception for you because I kind of just downright hate you. Of course, I'm going to act like I don't around Brent, because I love him. But I just thought you should know the truth." Chase told him honestly, glaring at the fucker before him.

Aiden just had to laugh. "Should I be honored that you broke whatever promise you made for yourself that you would never scream or rant?" He asked. Then he regained his composure. "Well, I thought you'd never be able to be civilized." he added with a smirk. Aiden was getting into Chase's nerves and he was enjoying the moment but Aiden knew that he needed to stop.
"My Damiano will kill me if he found out I came to meet up with you. But I shall just have to explain that I came to seek peace of mind. Brent will probably give you and kiss and a hug when he finds out that you were able to face me and not hex me at all." Aiden said. "Chase, you have your family. Focus on that. Brent won't leave you for me. I know it and I bloody hell know you know it too. So stop being a woman and be thankful that you've finally won." he told Chase.
"Yes, you've won Brent and his heart. He'll forever be with you and never leave you. But I know it won't be smooth sailing for the both of you. Knowing Brent, he'd stumble a few times but he'll stand up again. Because he has you and his family. He'll never give that up." Aiden said and smiled as he looked out the cafe window.

Chase felt like this fucker was just blowing smoke out of his fucking ears, but he was done fighting. Fighting only reminded him of his father when he was little, and he didn't need any fucking reminders of that son of a bitch. Yes, he knew he would go home and Brent would greet him with a kiss. He would probably end up telling Brent where he was, and then he would admit where he was, and he'd get another kiss for trying, even though he failed.
Chase took a deep sigh before putting his head in his hands. "Fine. How about we call for some sort of weird ass truce where we both know we hate each other, but we pretend and be civil around each other when need be. I'm fine with that, I guess. For Brent's sake." Chase could do it. Or he could try.

Aiden smiled, "I don't hate you, Chase. I never did. I envied you for having caught Brent's heart and full attention. I envied you that at the end of the day, he'd choose you with his eyes close." he told Chase with a sincere smile. "And yes, it wold be the strangest truce I have ever made with anyone. But it's not something impossible. It will work since I plan to make it work even if you plan to make it harder than it really should be." he added.
"You can choose to do with the easy way or the hard way. The easy way is that you'd just smile and nod your head and pretend that I don't really exist as much when Brent's around. The hard way is when you try to shoot down every attempt I do to make it seem that we're trying to make amends in front of Brent. And it'll look like your the one on the bad side if you do it."Aiden laid Chase's options.
They were all so simple really. Even a kid could make the better decision. Aiden was willing to let anything slide as long as it made Brent happy. If Brent asked Aiden to hug Chase, he would. Just as long as Brent is happy. "It's your call, Chase. And your's alone."
