The next morning Hailey woke up to her cell ringing. She wondered who would be calling her on a Saturday morning. She looked at the caller id and saw it was Erin. She pressed the ignore button and let it go to voicemail.
"Early call?" John asked her as he had heard the phone singing 'I wanna be bad' by Willa Ford. He had to chuckle at the song.
"It was Erin. She probably wanted to know how things went." She replied turning to face him.
"I see."
"Do you regret what happen?" She was worried that maybe he did and it was going to affect their friendship.
"No, do you?" He asked her.
"No. I wanted it to happen. I'm just thinking about what now? I mean are we a couple or just friends who hooked up?" She said getting up and putting on her robe.
"What do you want us to be?" He asked getting up also. "I mean, where do you see this going?"
"I don't just want to be friends who hook up. I want us to be more. I know we can be more. But if you don't want that, then we can go back to the way it was before."
"Hailey, I want us to be more than friends more than a hook up."
"Good." She said kissing him. "I'm glad you want this too."
"So, I guess we are a couple now."
"Yes, we are." She said kissing him again.
They were soon back in her bedroom. She loved being with him. It was everything she had hoped and more. She had never felt anything as passionate as being with him and had never felt the connection that she had with him.
Kinley and Erin had met for breakfast that Saturday like they did every week. Erin had called Hailey to see if she was coming but when she didn't pick up, she knew that John must have stayed the whole night with Hailey.
"So, Hailey didn't pick up?" Kinley asked as she and Erin sat in the coffee shop.
"Nope. So, I'm guessing she and John are officially a couple. Which I'm so excited about. Now they can go out with me and Evan." Erin said excitedly before noticing Kinley's face. "So, now that we have hooked up Hailey, we can get to work on finding you someone."
"Erin, I don't' know about that."
"Oh, come on. We have to get you someone. What about Ted? He is super cute, smart and very hot with a nice body. He would be perfect."
"He is a manwhore. He dates anything and everything."
"People can change, Kin. I bet if you give him a chance, it would be awesome."
"Erin, I don't think so."
"Kinley Orton, come on. Be happy with me and Hailey. We could go on triple dates. It would be great."
"Erin, I'm happy for you and Hailey. But just because you two got firemen, doesn't mean I have too? Besides I'm dating a cop."
"What cop? And is he port authority or NYPD?" Erin was shocked that Kinley didn't say anything before now.
"We have only been on two dates. His name is Mark Jindrak and he works for the NYPD. I really like him."
"Why didn't you mention it?"
"I just didn't want you and Hailey to make a big deal about it. Hailey is a romantic and she believes in the fate and destiny crap. You know she will make a big speech about fate and I just didn't want to hear it right now."
"I know Hailey can be a little much when she does the whole fate and destiny stuff and when she gets all romantic. But she would be happy for you."
"I know that. I know she would be happy for me. I just I don't think anything is fate and destiny. Mark and I met at a book signing. That isn't fate, it was just me planning to go and I went."
"Kinley, I know after everything, you aren't as romantic believing like Hailey but sometimes things are fate."
"I know that but this isn't."
"I still think you should see about Ted. It would so great for us all to be with firemen who were friends."
"Erin, that really isn't a reason to go out with Ted." Kinley laughed. "I just don't think he and I go well together. Now, can we drop this and then go bug Hailey about her night."
"But if John is still there, I don't want to interrupt what they are doing." Erin laughed. "Because odds are they are still having sex."
"Really? You really believe they could be doing it all this time?" Kinley laughed.
"Well, you have heard Hailey talk about her sex life before. And John is a very hunky fireman. What do you think?"
"I think they are probably still going at it." Kinley laughed. "So, let's go shopping and then call her later and she can tell us all about it and how great it was."
They got up and headed out of the coffee shop and out to go shopping. Kinley was happy that Erin let it drop about her going out with Ted. She just didn't' think he was her type. She liked Mark but then again they had only been on two dates. She just couldn't see herself with Ted. He liked to date more than one girl and she wasn't like that. She wanted someone committed to her. But she couldn't help but wonder if Erin was right. Could someone change for the right person?
