Nathaniel had expected that, after last night, Rebecca would want to be with him. He was shocked to realize she had never even considered breaking up with Damon.

"What do you mean? If you're not planning to break up, then what was last night all about?!" he demanded.

"Last night was just an accident. Let's pretend it never happened. Besides, Damon is your good friend. If he finds out that you slept with his girlfriend, it will damage your friendship," Rebecca said.

"Pretend nothing happened? Do you think that's possible?" Nathaniel questioned.

He quickly gathered his clothes from the floor, dressed, and stormed out, slamming the door behind him with a loud bang.

Once he was gone, Rebecca finally relaxed. As long as Nathaniel didn't confront Damon, Damon would never find out what had happened. Now, her goal was to remove Nyla from the picture and make Damon fall in love with her again.
