Jade spent the mourning with her sister before she went to work, and then decided that she should do some chores. She went to the supermarket and got groceries, then she went and did the laundry at the Benny's Suds and Scrubs down the street. She walked in the door at 5:00 and her friend Jason called asking her to come and party with him and his girlfriend Kelly at Heat in the City.

It was now 5:30 and she was going to meet Jason at 8:00, so she decided she'd make herself some tea. She had bought herself a Lean Cuisine dinner that went strait into the microwave.

The phone started ringing and so she answered it. It was an International call so she figured it was Alec. He had been flirting with her on the phone early that mourning and she surprisingly didn't mind it.

"Hello, this is Jade!" She said it so casually and with the phone being held up with her shoulder, she opened the microwave and took out the microwave dinner.

"Jade...oh, I forgot that's the name you use." Alec's voice was sexy yet assertive. Max had told her that Alec was tall, had brown hair and a killer body. She'd also said that Alec was a jerk!

"Would it be easier if I let you call me Jondy!" Her voice was flirtatious on instinct and she began wondering why he called. "Did you call to get an update on Max? She left a message that they were staying in Wagga Wagga overnight."

"No, I just wanted to talk to you. Plus, you promised we could talk some more!"

"Yes, I had. But it must be like 4 in the mourning there! Aren't you tired or are you like Max and I, not needing any sleep!" She got out a fork and started picking at the vegies in front of her.

"No, I do need sleep, but I slept in yesterday mourning so I can go all night. It's Saturday mourning where I am!" Alec sounded a bit tentative now.

"Alec, are you okay, you sound a bit out of it!" She spoke with a carrot in her mouth.

"Yeah, I'm fine...So, I want to know how you are. It's Saturday night there and your home. What's up with that?" His voice had become chirpy again.

"I'm going out at 8. It's 5:30 here and I'm having my dinner. I'm hitting a nightclub!" Jondy opened the shopping bag next to her and grabbed the paper. She didn't bother looking at the features, she just went strait to the back page.

"Well, what are you going to wear. I bet something that shows of a lot of skin." Alec voice had become deeper.

"Well, if you must know, I'm thinking of wearing my leather hipster paints with a green belly button tank top. I got a belly button ring which I like to show of..."

For an hour Alec and Jondy just talked and talked, flirting and exchanging stories. At the back of her mid, she remembered all the things that Max had told her, but she didn't care about any of them. She was just content on talking with Alec, who obviously enjoyed talking to her.

Asha could not sleep and she knew it was because she was upset about Alec. It was four in the mourning and she decided walking was the best thing.

She didn't know exactly where she was going, but she just walked. Then she found herself outside Alec's place. She could here him inside, talking on the phone. She began listening in!

"So, that top is going to show of quite a lot of skin, and with the tie up back, it will be so easy to take it of. I could get it of your back in less then a second..." Alec was obviously talking to someone female and Asha felt hurt.

"Well, the leather pants are something I've mastered...You want to know what I'm wearing." Although she was upset that Alec was speaking to another girl over the phone, she wanted to know who it was.

"Well, I'm wearing no shirt and I have killer abbs, Max told you that for sure..." 'Max?'

"And I'm also wearing some stretch fitting jeans which are kind of worn...Jondy, I didn't know you knew that word!" 'Jondy, he's talking to Jondy. But she lives in Australia!'

"Come on, you know you want me!" Alec laughed and Asha couldn't take any more of what Alec was saying. She started walking away, tears welling in her eyes.

'How could I have actually slept with that ass hole!'
