the most beautiful woman I have ever seen. Her dark red hair and crystal blue eyes are unbelievable. She has a sexy as hell body too. When she looked over at me earlier, I was shocked when my heart skipped a beat. She actually stopped my fucking heart. When she smiled my heart melted, she is so beautiful. When I got the balls to go over to talk to her at the bar, my hands were sweating and my stomach was in knots. No one has ever made me feel like that, ever. I can’t just let her walk out of here and not see her again.

“Hey, Campbell, you alright man?” Dick asks pulling me from my thoughts of the red haired goddess that can stop my heart.

“Yeah, I’m fine. I just don’t get what the fuck happened here. I thought we were having a good time. I have no idea why she freaked out like that.” I confess to him.

“Maybe she just had too much to drink and needed to get home man. Don’t worry about it. She has your number, I’m sure she will call.” He says finishing off his beer.

“Maybe you’re right.” I say. I hope he’s right, because the thought of not seeing her again makes my fucking heart hurt. I just want to get out of here and go crash. Hopefully she will call me tomorrow and explain what happened. I have a feeling we will have an overnight guest as well. “You guys ready to get out of here?” I ask them and they all agree it’s time to leave.

When we get home Young and Maddie go right into his room and slam the door shut. I just hope they aren’t too loud because I would like to get some sleep tonight. I give Dick blankets and pillows, and head to my room. I strip down to my boxers and climb into bed. I cannot get Kenz off my mind. I am questioning everything that happened tonight, trying to figure out if I can see what freaked her out. Nothing seems off though. We flirted, talked, and laughed. Maybe Dick is right and she just needed to get home. Fuck, I really hope that’s all it is. I pick up my cell phone and stare at it hoping I will get a text to let me know she is alright. My mind is starting to play with me now and I have all kinds of shit running through it. I hope she made it home alright. I hope she isn’t too sick. I hope she doesn’t have a boyfriend. Damn, I need to get some sleep. Just as I close my eyes I hear, “Yes! Yes! Yes! I’m going to come!” Fuck me this is going to be a long night.

When I wake up the next morning, I am fucking exhausted. The noises coming from Young’s room made it hard to sleep. Add in the fact that every time I closed my eyes I saw Kenz’s beautiful face, sleep was pretty nonexistent. I sit up and grab my phone just in case I may have missed a call or text from Kenz. Nothing. Damn it, I thought for sure I would have heard something. I drop back down onto the pillow and close my eyes. I need to figure out how to get in touch with her. I should have asked for her number last night. That’s when it hits me; Maddie is here. I jump out of bed and throw on a pair of sweat pants, then go out into the living room. Dick is sitting on the couch sipping his coffee when I get out there.

“Morning.” I grumble and make my way to the coffee.

“Morning. Just curious if Young always has girls over and keeps everyone up all fucking night?” he asks me and I realize he is just as exhausted as I am.

“It’s not always that bad. Sometimes he goes to the chicks place.” I say with a laugh while I pour myself some much needed coffee.

“Fuck me! We need to find a place that has his room as far from mine as fucking possible.” I just laugh and shake my head.

“They come out yet or still sleeping that sexathon off?” I ask as I sit next to him on the couch.

“Nah, Young left about a half hour ago to take her home.” He says. Well shit, this is the first time I was hoping to run into one of Young’s many conquests the next morning. Hopefully he got Maddie’s number because I am not above calling her to get ahold of Kenz.

It is late in the afternoon when Young finally gets back. “Hey, asswipes!” he says when he walks in the door.

“Where the hell have you been all day?” I ask because shit I need to know if he got that number. I don’t want to just blurt it out, he would never let that go.

“I, unlike you lazy asses, have been out looking for apartments. I went to look at the one I was telling you about. It’s fucking perfect. I told them I would bring you guys by to check it out tomorrow.” He says while he plops down in the chair and puts his hands behind his head.

“Fuck yes, let’s look at it.” Dick says.

“We can look at it but it better not be a shithole. Anyway, I thought you were bringing Maddie home?” I try to act nonchalant as I can.

“Nah, I called her a cab and went to get breakfast. When I was at the diner, I realized it was close to that apartment, so I went to check it out. It is only a block or so from the bar, how fucking perfect is that. It’s like it was meant to be!” he says all excited. This makes me think it’s probably a big shithole and he just likes it because it’s close to the bar.

“Young, it better be worth looking at tomorrow. I’m going to kick your ass if it’s a shithole like the last couple. Anyway, sounded like you had a good time last night.” I say hoping that he will say he got her number.

“That girl is kinky as fuck in bed. We had sex in so many different positions so many times I thought my dick would fall off. Speaking of dick, that girl can suck one like no one else. Last night was fucking epic!” he tells us excitedly.

“So obviously you’re going to see each other again than, huh?” Dick says and I want to fucking hug him for asking it so I didn’t have to.

“Nah, we decided that if we see each other out again we will hook up. Neither of us was looking for any kind of a relationship.” Young says and my heart sinks because I know that he didn’t get her number.

Fucking asshole with his one night stands. Fuck, now I have no idea how I’m going to find Kenz. I’m actually surprised at how much it fucking hurts.

The last couple of days have sucked for me. After I ran out on Campbell on Friday, Becca came looking for me. I was grateful for her concern, but I really did not want to have to talk about it. It’s not so much that I don’t want Maddie and Becca to know who I was in high school, it’s that I don’t want them to treat me differently. I’m not embarrassed of who I was, more like I’m embarrassed of how I was treated. It’s in the past and that is exactly where I want to keep it. It’s bad enough that the last couple of days I’ve been thinking about it nonstop, I don’t want to talk about it too. I told Becca that I just started to feel like shit and needed to get home. I’m pretty sure she didn’t believe me, but she didn’t push me and I am so thankful. What really got to me was when she handed me Campbell’s number. She said he wanted me to call him and he was glad he met me. I took the number and put it in my night stand. I know I should have just thrown it in the trash, but I just couldn’t do it.

I’ve been comparing the Campbell from high school and the Campbell I met the other night. They seem like completely different people. High school Campbell was a complete asshole. He laughed at everything those bitchy girls said or did to me. I know that he was the one who put a picture of a dog on my locker and wrote ‘selfie’ on it. He was on the football team and hung out with all the asshole jocks and cheerleaders. The Campbell I met on Friday was nothing like that. He was flirty, funny, and smart. He wanted to have my attention and damn it I loved every second of it. Maybe, I’m being a whining baby about it all. I know people change, but I just don’t think I could talk to him again without feeling like I’m back in high school.

I am sitting on the couch pretending to watch TV when Maddie comes bouncing in the apartment. “Hey Kenz, how was your day?” she asks as she sits next to me and lays her head on my shoulder.

I smile because this is who I am. I don’t need to be dwelling on the past. Fuck that. It’s not like I’m going to see Campbell again, so I need to stop the pity party for one and be a fucking adult.

“My day was fine, Maddie. What’s up? You need to talk about something?” I ask her. She lifts her head up and looks at me.

“Nothing is wrong, Kenz. I wanted to ask you something though. Don’t get all pissy with me either. I just want to know alright?” She raises her eye brows at me daring me to disagree.
