“Oh, I heard they were fine. Pretty damn fine, in fact,” she smirks and wiggles her eyebrows at me for emphasis.
“Really? I didn’t notice.” That’s a lie; they were two of the most attractive men I have ever met. They were funny and professional and a sight to behold.
“You are such a liar. Everyone who saw them swooned. You can’t say you felt nothing!”
I take a sip of my wine before letting out a deep breath.
“Fine, they were gorgeous. Is that what you want to hear? I nearly died when I realised who they were and that it wasn’t two older men. They are built and looked like gods, and I sat there wondering if an old girl like me would ever turn their heads.”
“You aren’t old!” Penny protests loudly. I look at my friend with an arched brow.
“I’m officially classed as middle age; I’m old. Plus, there is no way these guys are older than thirty-five. One of them was so baby-faced I had difficulty believing he was in his thirties,” I explain whilst picturing how they both smiled at me and how I felt it deep in my stomach. I haven’t been able to stop thinking of them since, which made me consider whether Penny has been right and whether it’s time I looked into dating again.
There are times that I’m lonely, and the thought of having someone now and again to hold me after a long day or show me just the slightest bit of affection would be nice. Someone who can give me an orgasm that doesn’t come with batteries or charging wire would be good, too. Don’t get me wrong, I haven’t had the best experience with sexual partners. Very few have given me an orgasm, let alone one better than I can give myself with a toy. But it would be nice just once for someone to try and top them at least.
I look at Penny to find her grinning at me with a knowing look. She knows exactly where my mind just went and is waiting for me to say it out loud. Bitch can read me like a book.
“I think I want to try dating again.”
Penny squeals, almost spilling her wine in the excitement. She quickly puts it on the small table beside her sofa and reaches for her phone.
“I’ve been waiting so long for this!” she giggles happily. Oh shit, what have I done? I’m going to regret this; I know it.
I watch as she types away on her phone before jumping in her seat so she is facing me more, causing me to nearly spin my wine. She ignores my protests whilst tapping away on her phone.
“Okay, there is a speed dating event next Friday in town.”
“I’m not going speed dating! Do you remember the last one you dragged me to? I left after some guy offered to meet me out back!”
Penny roars laughing as I roll my eyes.
“But that was just one guy.”
I give her the side eye, and she rolls hers dramatically.
“Fine, dating app it is.” She reaches over and grabs my phone from the arm of the chair next to me. “Right let’s find the right one for you.”

I climb into bed just after midnight. The girls are finally asleep and Penny is passed out on the bed beside me. The third bottle of wine seemed like a good idea at the time. It was not. I’m so drunk and have no idea what I let her talk me into. If I remember rightly, she also pulled the old tequila out of the cupboard at some point. My head will not thank me in the morning when I have to work, that’s for sure.
I pick up my phone and look at it through one eye, as I attempt to focus. Nope. I can’t see a thing through the blur. I know it’s on the Tinder app that Penny insisted on downloading onto my phone. I remember at one point she went on a swiping mission and decided for me which way to swipe. Probably because I can’t remember if it's right or left for like. Did I see Calvin and Drew on there earlier? No, I couldn’t have. There’s no way they’re single. If they are, then they’re gay. Are they together? Why does the sound of that seem appealing? Shit, now I know I’m drunk if I’m getting turned on by the thought of those two hunks together.
I put my phone back on the side and lie down, throwing my arms over my face. I might as well get to sleep because I know for a fact, I’m going to spend tomorrow regretting every decision I have made today, like letting Penelope sign me up to that bloody app.

Drew
I sit back on the couch and continue to flick through my phone. I don’t even know what I’m looking at anymore. I’ve been flicking through Tinder for half an hour, and no one is catching my attention. All I can think about is a particular blonde-haired PA with hips I want to grab and hold on to as I fuck her over that huge desk. Fuck, she’s gotten under my skin, and I can’t think of anything else.
“Dude, if you reposition your cock one more time, I will cut the fucker off.”
I look down at my hand and realise I have a firm grip on my semi-hard dick. No wonder Logan’s growling at me.
“Shit, sorry, buddy,” I mutter as I put my arm on the back of the sofa to keep it as far away from my crotch as possible.
“What’s got you so highly strung?” I hear Calvin ask from the dinner table, where he’s going over some paperwork with Logan.
