She goes with Richard

A few days later, Richard approached Dean and Brooke as the sat together watching a movie.

"Can I talk with you?" he asked.

"Sure," replied Dean, pausing the movie.

"Thanks for letting me stay here," Richard said. "I've gotten my life together, and found a new place. I'll actually be moving out tomorrow, but I can pay you for the rest of the month."

"Oh, don't worry about it," said Dean. "That's great news!" He turned and smiled at Brooke, winking and reaching for her hand. But to his surprise, she pulled away and stood beside Richard.

"I'm going with him," she said quietly but firmly.

"What?" Dean shouted, rising to his feet. "How DARE you steal my girl-"

"When I moved here, I promised I'd never take any of your things," Richard replied calmly. "I've mostly stayed in my room and kept out of your way. Then one night Brooke came to me-"

Dean turned his angry gaze to Brooke. "You weren't suppose to-"

Brooke raised a hand to stop him. "Face it Dean, even before Richard, we didn't have much of a relationship, although I never realized it at the time. I was cooking and cleaning for you, while letting you unload your emotional garbage on me. In bed, I pleasured you and was almost always left wanting more." She took a deep breath. "Richard actually takes the time to ask about my day and help me around the house with chores. In bed, I'm afraid that I'm the one who can't satisfy him! And let's face it, since your Master Plan started, you've been getting off more to the thought of me and Richard together, than you have when I'm actually in the room with you!"

Startled, Dean turned to face Richard.

"I know about your Master Plan," he said. "I should also thank you for that; it's what helped me get my life together. Sorry it didn't turn out exactly how you planned."

"Well, you should have just talked to me!" Dean shouted, turning back to Brooke.

"We've barely seen each other over that past few weeks," Brooke replied gently. "And when we do, we are too tired to talk. You must have realized how much we've drifted apart recently. Look, I'm sorry to spring this on you like this, but my minds made up. We can keep sending you videos though, as long as you don't share them. It can be like your own private porn channel."
