Meredith was quiet for a moment as I bowed my head and sobbed. “Did it suck that bad?” She asked.

“No!” I snapped. “It was the best sex of my life!”

Meredith gave me an odd look. “Then why are you crying?”

“Because I should never have done it. I like him.”

“Isn’t that why you have sex with someone?”

“Ugh! You don’t understand!” I growled and threw my hands up in the air, and went to sit in the living room.

Just as Meredith took a seat, there was a knock at the door, and my eyes burst wide. “You have to answer the door.” She said.

“I can’t! What if it’s him?”

“What if it is?”

“Mer! I can’t answer the door. If it’s Alex, get rid of him.”

She sighed heavily and stopped to pick something up on the way to the door. I huddled against the cushion, pulling a throw pillow into my lap and hugging it tightly.

A knock sounded again just before she opened it. “Can I help you?”

“Um,” I heard the deep timbre of his voice as he hesitated. “I’m looking for Mya.”

“She’s busy. Who are you? I’ll tell her you stopped by.”

“I’m Alex. Tell her it’s me. I’m sure she will want to talk to me.”

Meredith laughed. “Sorry, Alex,” there was a pause, “But do you think this says she wants to speak to you?”

“Is that her phone?” I winced as I heard him ask the question.

“What’s left of it. Look, I’m not sure what went down tonight, but I think you should leave.”

He sighed. “Just give me a second. I need to tell Mya something.”

“Nope. You can tell her later. Right now, you need to go away.”

“Alright, I’ll leave. Tell her that I’ll talk to her tomorrow.”

“Maybe you will, and maybe you won’t.”

heard the door close, and then she returned. She tossed my smashed phone into my lap and plopped down beside me. Then she grabbed my hand and squealed like a little girl who just got a pony. “You weren’t kidding when you called him sexy as sin. I can’t believe you slept with him! I want every detail!”
