Blake assured his mates a thousand and ten times that he and Maeve were just friends. After he told her he was with someone and didn't want to be with her, she had cooled it with her advances. At first she had promptly ignored him, like he was the plague. But when he caught her alone they had a heart to heart over a beer.
"I'm sorry, I just...I'm so lonely and thought you were single. I didn't know you had someone. Ugh you must think I'm so thirsty!" Blake had assured her then he didn't. "I've been there darling. So obsessed with finding someone that it didn't matter who they were."
They talked more than before. Texting and having lunch together.
After a peaceful weekend with his mates, he thought everything was smoothed over. All 4 together and happy with their current arrangement.
