“So how’d you end up here of all places?” she asked.
I shrugged. “I just chose a random place to come and this was it,” I answered honestly. Ashton nearly choked on the food in her mouth, coughing and patting her chest.
“Wait, what? So you just chose a random place and decided to come to it?”
“Yep.”
“That’s insane. Do you have family here or something?”
“Nope. Just needed a fresh start.”
She squinted her eyes at me. “You’re not on the run, are you?”
I laughed and shook my head. “If I were, that would’ve been on the background check you looked over,” I said.
“Fair point. Are you a drifter?”
I sighed. It was hard to really dive into the specifics without telling her about Kayla. “No. Just wanted to plant roots somewhere else and get away from all the city noise I left back in Virginia.” That wasn’t really a lie. Kayla was part of the noise I’d wanted to leave, as well as the memories of what would never be. With her stature, I was sure word got around fast about the rejected proposal. The last thing I wanted was for everyone in town to look at me with pity in their eyes or constantly tell me how sorry they were that things didn’t work out, as if I needed the reminder of my failure.
“I see.” She went back to eating without another word. When she finished, she stood and grabbed the glass of wine. “Well, thanks for dinner. While I’d love to stay and chat, I have to get to work.”
I put my hand on my chest. “You really would’ve loved to sit here and chat with me?” I asked in faux surprise. She smirked at me.
“Of course not,” she teased and walked away.
“Wait, but you didn’t give me a definite answer for tomorrow!” I called out after her.
“I’ll think about it!” she responded. I smiled and shook my head. At least it wasn’t a no.

After cleaning up and putting the extra food away, I headed to my bedroom, pausing when I heard Ashton on the other side of her bedroom door. “I wonder what kind of important work she does,” I whispered to myself, creeping over to her door. Instead, I heard silence for a while until her phone rang.
“Thank you for calling Erotic Fantasies. This is Natasha; what’s your fantasy tonight?” I heard her say. I felt as if my heart stopped as I listened to her talk.
“No fucking way,” I whispered. She couldn’t be…no. I dashed into my room and grabbed my phone. Over the last couple of days, I’d called a phone sex line and spoke to someone who said the exact same thing. What were the fucking odds that I’d been talking to the woman who’d be my future roommate?
Looking through my call log, I found the number and hit call, waiting while it rang. After following the prompts, I waited to be connected, quietly going back out to the hall and listening outside her door. After what felt like an eternity, someone finally answered.
“Thank you for calling Erotic Fantasies. This is Natasha; what’s your fantasy tonight?” I heard her say both on the phone and through her door.
Holy shit.
I’d been having phone sex with my sexy ass roommate. Just the thought of her masturbating the other day when I’d called on my lunch break was enough to make my cock hard. Knowing that I’d unknowingly experienced her at her most vulnerable made me look at her in a different light. I wanted to hear her talk dirty to me as I moved deep inside her, feeling her nails clawing at my skin as I pleased her. This woman sent wild thoughts through my head for hours after talking to her, only to find out I’d been living with her. With a grin, I went back to my room and shut the door. This conversation would definitely be interesting tonight.
“Well, hello there, sex kitten,” I said, deepening my voice.
“Avery,” she breathed.
I chuckled. “So you remember me.”
“Of course. You make it hard to forget you,” she said, her tone seductive. “What can I do for you tonight, handsome?”
“Tell me, sex kitten, do you believe in fate?”
“Hmm…I will if you want me to.”
“No, I want to know what you really think. Do you believe certain things happen for a reason and that certain people come in your life for a reason?”
