After yesterday's nightmare I couldn't sleep anymore. I was afraid that the nightmares would return. Yesterday's nightmare felt so real. It felt like I was reliving that moment over again and it was something I tried to avoid but I guess the universe really didn't like me. It never did.
I sighed as I drank my hot cocoa from it's paper cup. The heat from the paper cup warmed my somewhat cold hands. I was heading to 'slurps of milkshake' to meet Lila because she wanted me to meet someone important. My guess was she wanted to meet her 'friend' or she wanted to matchmake me with another unsuspecting male. My phone vibrated. It was a text from Lila
*Hurry up bird brain*
*I'm sorry,I'm just standing in the middle of the road waiting for a car to run me over*I texted her back. Sarcasm evident in my words
*Just hurry up*
*Fine* I replied and as I was about to keep my phone back into its rightful place I bumped into someone and my hot cocoa slipped from my

"Hey you" Lila greeted from the other side of the phone"Looks like Jay banged you pretty well because you completely forgot about me" I said venomously."Excuse you?" Lila asked flattered"You're probably blushing by now. Did you guys……." I trailed off hoping she'd get the message.She giggled"I'm in his bed right now. We've been intimate a lot this few days""Really?" I asked. My anger vanished"Yup" she said cheerily"He's good isn't he?" I asked curiously"The best I've had. Lord knows that right now he's the only one that can handle my dark sexual desires"I laughed"You're a lucky lady," I told her."I know," she said with pride."He's long and he's got……..""That's enough Lila….I don't think I'm ready to hear about your boyfriend's length" I cut her off."Oops. Now to the real reason I called you…… we're

Apparently, Lila saw it fit to head to the park- Pére Lachaise cemetery to be precise- Etienné glanced at me when Lila had told us where we were going. He brought be here when he took me sightseeing. I smiled at him, telling him i understood. In the car Ace and Meredith seemed to be having fun talking to each other but of course Mer's hand never left Etienné's. It was as though she was scared that once she let him go,I was going to snatch him. At a point, I got tired of sitting alone, doing nothing so I began playing billiards on my phone which later erupted a conversation between Ace and I. "You play pool?" He asked. I smiled. "Yes but not in real life. I'm pretty sure I won't hit a single ball in" I told him "Oh come on, I'm pretty sure you can. I play pool." "Really?" I asked suprised. "Yes" he answered.

Well, that was my exact situation.I wanted to kiss him so badly but logic was stopping me from doing so. "I'm sorry I shouldn't have said that" he muttered disappointed. No,no,no. Kiss me. I want you to kiss me. God! I'm stupid. "It's okay" Tension. "We should get a cab to take us home" Etienné suggested. "Yeah" I agreed. "You

It was 6pm and I was halfway through the documents Cal had emailed to me. I was planning on finishing before dawn and then maybe treat myself to a nice warm bath for the job well done-if I wasn't lazy. You know the saying that goes your plans aren't the same as the maker or whatever,turns out it was true. How did I figure this out? Ace came knocking on my door. "Hi Cupcake" He greeted. "Hey Milkshake Spiller" "You're busy?" He asked "Yeah. I'm hoping to finish before dawn"

Ace went downstairs minutes ago to start their game night and Lord were they making noise. My ears felt like they were going to burst any second from now. I was finding it hard to concentrate and I didn't like it. I needed to work. I pushed my laptop aside and decided to go downstairs and tell them to keep it down. I got to the base of the stairs. They were arguing about something. Something useless,no doubt there. "Will you shut up?" I said. No one heard. I contemplated splashing a bucket of water on them but that would leave me a mess I wasn't ready to clean. I took a glass from the kitchen, came to the living room and smashed it on the floor. Yes, that was dumb but it got their attention so what the heck. "Keep your voices down. My apartment isn't a marketplace for crying out loud. If you want to make noise then go to a zoo or someplace else n

How?......Why was she.........Seeing Meredith cry was something I thought I'd never experience but here I was standing at the entrance of the room contemplating if I should go in or not."Meredith?"She sniffed and stood up hastily while cleaning her face with her palm."Are you alright?" I asked.She seemed taken aback by my concern.I would have said "I'm not a heartless human" but I kept quiet instead. Meredith was hurting. I wanted……. needed to find out why.

For the past two days, I've been holed up in my apartment. I was either sulking or working, either way, it helped me steer clear of Etienné. An achievement I was proud of. I had switched off my phone to avoid any distractions while I worked. I booted my phone hoping Lila hadn't sent a search and find party because she couldn't reach me. Thinking about it, in some ways Lila was like an elder sister. She was protective of me. My phone finally came on. Lila and Ace had tried calling. Lila had texted him about how worried she was. I replied to her instantly, letting her know I was okay. I left a text for Ace asking him to come over if he could. Minutes later, he texted back to tell him he wouldn't and then scolded me for what he called my "Inconsiderate behavior" I hauled myself out of my couch and freshened up. I needed fresh air. Time to think and get ready for tomorrow. Tomorrow was my birthday. I should be happy, I

I was at the construction site mixing sand and gravel partly because I needed to get my lazy ass out of the confines of my apartment and it seemed like a good exercise to get Etienné out of my mind. My phone rang in my jeans pocket. I wiped my sweaty hands on the side of my jeans before picking up the call. "Where are you?" Ace asked me over the phone. "Well hello to you too" He laughed. "Forgive my lack of manners m'lady. Where art thou?" He asked, faking a British accent. I decided to play along. "At the construction site, indulging in hard manual labor" I replied, imitating his accent. "For real?" Ace asked, ditching the accent. "Yup. The workers here looked at me like I grew two heads in two seconds" I said with a chuckle. "I don't bla
