"I had a good time." She said quietly. "Me too." I said as I looked over to her watching her getting dressed. I heard her laugh. "Do you even remember my name?"

"Can I have a hint?" I asked while rubbing my eyes.

She laughed again. This time she jumped back on top of me and kissed me. It was tempting to go for another round, especially since she was halfway down my body again. "My friend comes over daily around this time. I can't." I told her while I pushed her carefully off me.

"Not your girlfriend right?"

I shook my head no. She got back on her feet and walked to the door. "Kim." I said, she turned around. "Of course I remember your name." I said and with that she was out of the door.

I put on some comfy baggy clothes just in time to hear the door open. "I saw your bitch leaving." I heard a familiar voice say.

I got dressed in time before my best friend Paige McCullers walked in my bedroom. "This one wasn't a bitch or anything like that. Just a one night stand." I said.

"Isn't it always?" I heard her mumble. "You need a real relationship."

"I don't need anything." I said sternly.

"But you want something." She shot back. "Em, you broke up with Hazel a year ago." She said softly.

"I know." I whispered. What are you supposed to do when you find out that your girlfriend of 3 years is cheating on you? Well I kept it moving, Queen of the One Night Stands that's me. The thrill of those nights is still super sweet.

"Come on, take a shower, get dressed we're going grocery shopping." Another thing I don't really do anymore, thank god I have someone to remind me of everything. "You still can move in you know." I told her.

She scoffed. "I'm not moving in with Mrs. One-Night-Stands-Is-What-I-Do."

I punched her arm playfully. But she has a point.

We jumped out of the car and ran inside the store trying to escape the heavy rain, bumping into each other as we did so sending shivers up my spine.

"Are you cold?" She asked me. I nodded. "Something like that." I muttered.

"Here, you get that." She handed me a list of a few simple things, I went through different things than her. As I was busy with filling my cart I got a text message through from Paige saying to meet her at register 4. Just as I wanted to continue I felt the cart jerk forward. "I'm sorry." I said. The lady was simply beautiful. "I wasn't paying attention." I said.

"I was busy staring at you, I wasn't really looking where I was going either." That statement caught me off guard.

She laughed again and reached into her pocket, she handed me a small cart. "Samara Cook" I read her name. "I'm Emily." She gave me a smile. "I hope I'll see you soon." And like that she walked away.

"So what took you so long?" Paige asked. I gave her a shy smile. "Did you seriously bang someone here?" She gave me a dirty glare.

"I met a girl." I simply answered.


"Em can you please stop sleeping around?" She said while she tossed me a bag of chips.

I looked at her. "I didn't sleep with her!" I sighed. "She gave me her number after I slammed into her with my grocery cart not with my body."

She laughed. "Are you in love?"

"Please." I rolled my eyes. "Maybe this is my shot at something."

"Big step." She smiled. Of course she isn't taking me seriously now.

"It was weird." I told her. "Like she wanted to be sure to see me again, to have sex with me."

"Honey, you can find someone attractive and flirt with other intentions than just wanting that person in your bed as soon as possible. And anyways who's going to a grocery store to pick up babes? No one."

"So you think I'm a babe?" I leaned closer. She gave me a blank look and continued putting stuff in my fridge. "Well?"

"I'm not answering that Emily."

"Oh come on. Nothing wrong with that! So?"

She shrugged. "Yeah but in a nice way."

"What kinda nice way? In a you would date me way?" I knew I was pushing this now but I couldn't help but tease.

"Emily." She said shaking her head laughing.

"So I'll take that as a yes?" I teased while leaning closer to her. "Are you willing to kiss me?"

"What? That proves nothing!" She said.

"Maybe not, but it does prove you're willing to kiss me if you do so." I smirked. I didn't say anything else but I decided to kiss her. It lasted about full 5 seconds but it happened. She continued with the groceries, and I looked down thinking of a subject changer.

Why did I do that for?

"I just never had someone approaching me like that before." I said.

"Maybe she was nervous but somehow wanted to come across confidently."

"Yeah maybe." I smiled. "Do you think she sleeps with others on the first date?"

Paige gave me a dirty look.

We entered the party house, the smell of drugs, sweat and alcohol flooded the air. Paige grabbed us something to drink. "So I'm allowed to drown myself in alcohol tonight?" I asked her. I knew she didn't like the amount of alcohol I drink.

"Don't push it." She said. I smiled as she walked off, leaving me awkwardly alone.

"Emily?" I covered my heart as this woman jumps out from nowhere. "Samara?"

Her hair was thrown up in a messy bun. "Crazy seeing you here." She looked beautiful.

She handed me a small shot of tequila, I downed it also the other one she gave me. "Well my friend invited me and it's not like I have something better to do with my life."

She kinda laughed which pretty much shattered my insides.

"So you haven't called?" She asked with a serious tone making me uncomfortable.

I shook my head. "Busy." Shitty excuse. She kept handing me tequila and I couldn't care less. A smile went across her face as she drank one, one more time and leaned in closely. "Upstairs, 4 doors down to the left. Now." She whispered and gave me a seductive look as she walked up the stairs.

I downed another shot and things started to get blurry. And of course on my way I had to bump into Paige. "Really Em? You're on your way upstairs?"

"Let me do this one, please. It's not about the sex, it's the woman. I want her."

She looked at me. "How much did you drink?"

"One." I lied. She shook her head. "Whatever."

I walked up the stairs feeling guilty. I did as I was told though and entered the 4th room on the left side. I closed the door and walked towards an already half naked Samara. I picked her up and slammed her on the bed.

Then things went black.
