Chapter 2

(Trish's POV)

"Morning, Amy," I said.

"Morning," Amy replied.

"Is there coffee?"

"Yep."

"Good."

I went over and poured myself some coffee. I put a bagel in the toaster to toast. I then went and sat at the table with Amy.

"How'd you sleep?" Amy asked.

"Good. How about you?"

"Fine. It was just very lonely without my boy toy."

I nodded my head. Phil Brooks, Amy's boyfriend, normally stayed the night at our place or Amy stayed the night at his place. However, she worked late last night so he didn't stay the night. Normally, he would have. He could have just hung out with me, but he didn't.

"Sure rub it in," I said.

Amy shook her head. She took a sip of her coffee.

"There's a hot guy across the hall that would love if you asked him out," Amy said.

"Hell no!" I said. "I'm not going to ask John out. That's desperate and needy! I am not desperate and needy!"

"Actually, you are."

I went to say something, but my bagel was done. Ignoring Amy, I stood up and went to the toaster.

(John's POV)

"So any plans for the evening?" My partner, Carl asked as he drove around on our patrolling area. I was a cop.

"Yeah, I met a girl at the gym last night and she and I have a date tonight."

"Way to go, John. It's about time you get on the high horse. What's her name?"

"Michaela. Michaela Stephens."

"Tell me about her."

"Not much to tell. I just met her. We talked for about an hour last night. I asked her out and she said yes. I told her I was a cop."

"How'd that go?"

"Her exact words were: 'I do love a man uniform.'"

Carl laughed. "You'll have to give me the low down of your date tomorrow."

"Don't worry. I will."

(Trish's POV)

After breakfast, I got dressed and went onto the computer on Facebook. I looked at the status updates of my friends and family. Nobody had anything exciting to say really. All though, I did see something that upset me a little. It was a status update by John. It said: "Yours truly has a date tonight." There were a bunch of comments from his friends and family. I read them all. These are all the comments I read:

Who's the lucky girl?

A girl I met at the gym last night.

Awesome. What's her name?

Michaela Stephens. We talked for an hour last night. I asked her out and she said yes.

Well, have fun tonight.

Good for you son.

John had a date tonight?! That made me extremely jealous and upset.

"Amy," I shouted as I got up from my desk.

"What?" Amy shouted back.

I walked into the hallway and into Amy's bedroom. She sat on her bed, putting sneakers on. She had to work today.

"Have you been on Facebook this morning?" I asked.

"Yes, why?"

"Did you see John's status? He has a date?!"

Amy nodded her head. "Yes, I saw that. So what?!"

"So what?!" I said. "John has a date!"

Amy gave me a blank look.

"Amy, a guy I like and have a crush on is going out with someone else!"

Amy shook her head. "Trish, the guy has his own life. I know it sucks, but you have to let it go. Also the date might not go well."

"It says he met the girl at the gym last night. How safe is that?"

"Actually, it's the other way around, sweetie. A girl who goes out on a date with a guy she just met at the gym might not be safe."

"Actually, it can be both ways. Everything works both ways. She might be a crazy chick or something."

Amy laughed. "Let it go, Trish. Let it go." She got up from her bed and walked out of her room.

"But Amy?!"

I groaned. My best friend was not being a best friend. She was being a bitch. She knew I liked John. She told me to let the situation go. I couldn't let the situation go! My crush was going out with another girl!

(John's POV)

I got off work at 5 o'clock. My date was at 8 o'clock. I was meeting Michaela. I wasn't going to pick her up at her place. She had said we would specifically meet at the restaurant. The girl was playing it safe and I liked that.

As soon as I got home, I got into the shower.

(Trish's POV)

"Let's go out tonight," My friend, Stacy Keibler said.

"Yeah, let's go out tonight," My other friend, Torrie Wilson said.

"It'll help you forget about John going out on a date," Stacy said.

I smiled. I was so glad I could count on Stacy and Torrie. Amy was no help.

"What about Randy?" I asked.

"Randy can survive another night without me," Stacy said. "Anyways, one of my best friend needs me."

"Two of your best friends need you," Torrie said.

I smiled. "Okay, let's go out tonight."

"Yes," Stacy said.

"Yay," Torrie said.

"What do we want to do? Dinner and dancing?" I asked.

"Yes, dinner and dancing," Torrie said.

"I say we eat dinner at home and then we go dancing," Stacy suggested. "Let's save some money."

"Sounds good to me," I said. "I just want to go out tonight. I need to forget about John and his date."
