Sighing, I walk to my ugly stained brown couch and plop down on it. “I would love to, but I have to start looking for places to stay.” I let her know about my notice and what’s going on with the building and she groans.

“If I didn’t have a studio, you know I’d have you move in with me, but I can help you look, girl, you know I’m down to help however I can.” This is why I love Tina, she’s always there for me when I need someone to lean on.

“I will take you up on that for sure, that is if Keller doesn’t get his way.” She goes quiet at me mentioning him. She’s never really liked Keller, but she also knows my feelings toward him as well, so she doesn’t say anything.

“What would Keller’s way be?” she asks, her voice edging into the danger zone.

Groaning, I slide further down my couch, and throw an arm over my eyes. “You know how he’s been wanting us to move in together? Well, he’s decided he has found a loophole. I move in with him and Drew, but have my own room, so like a roommate situation instead of actualmoving in.” I chuckle.

“Girl, you need to wake up and smell the coffee.” She always says that to me, since she knows I hate the smell. “He’s a hockey player, emphasis on the player. You also don’t even like the guy, and no, shut up,” she snaps as if I’m going to interrupt her. “I know you’re keeping him around just for sex, companionship, whatever, but girl. There are way better guys. At the same time, I think you should go for it. Maybe you and Drew will have another go.”

Oh god, she just had to bring that up again. She was so proud of me when she learned I finally lost my virginity. I never even told her about working with Drew until I started dating Keller, and literally a month later, she was telling me I should dump Keller and go for Drew. To be honest, ever since I introduced her to Keller, she’s been odd around him, half the time she makes an excuse to not hang out with us.

“Look, no, Drew and I, don’t get along, so get that out of your head, and I doubt I’ll take Keller up on the offer, even if he does convince Drew. And second…” My stomach starts to growl so I change my train of thought. “I’m starving, so I need to go get something to eat.”

Her laugh booms over the phone, “Girl, I know how you get when you’rehangry. Go eat, call me later and we’ll figure out a girl’s night. Love ya, bitch.” She clicks off before I can reply, and I just shake my head.

I toss my phone to the end of the couch and get up to search for food. I really hope Drew says no.

Chapter 4

Drew

Okay, how the fuck do I get this bitch to leave? We’ve been awake for almost an hour now, she should have been gone first thing, but it seems like I snagged myself a stage nine clinger. Just great. If Keller didn't give his condo to his baby mama, I would have taken this chick there, like I used to, but the place is off limits now. Hell, it’s also the place I took Tara when I had her.

“Look, is that ride coming anytime soon, really need you outta here,” I say, starting losing my cool.

She shoots me a dirty look. “Don’t know why you’re being a dick about this. I said she’d be here soon, okay, wanna double check my phone?” she practically shouts, throwing attitude at me.

I narrow my eyes at her. “What’s your name?” I ask, realizing I didn’t get it last night.

“Fuck me, really? I thought we decided no names?”

“Yeah, we did, but I wanna know now.” Before she can answer me her phone rings.

“Finally, you whore. Blake finally let you come up for air?” she says, laughing. “Will you be here soon? Because really, this guy is looking at me all weird and shit, and I wanna get gone,” she tells her friend. “Seriously, what the hell? Fine whatever, what’s another half hour. God, can this get any worse? Cori, this is why I bring men to my place, because it’s just easier. Ugh.” That shocks me, she must do this often, at least I know she’s not a clinger now. “Yes, I know. Well Randy was too busy slobbering all over some bitch at the club last night to notice me. But whatever, asshole said he wanted a chance, I gave it, and anyways, whatever. Not going there with him.” She rolls her eyes. “I know, why do you think I went home with someone instead of to my place? Seriously, I knew the jerk would show up.”

My front door opens, interrupting my serious eavesdropping on whatever drama is going on with this chick.

“Hey, man,” I say to him when I walk to see who came in.

“Gotta ask you something, and before you say no, you gotta hear me out,” Keller declares.

“Are you fucking serious?” the chick from last night growls coming into the hallway. “Keller, wow, great. The man I banged and the man I hate together at once. Yay me.”

“Chelsea, uh, what are you doing here?” Keller asks her, sounding nervous. I’m wondering if maybe he fucked her over at some point.

“Waiting for Cori to pick me up. Duh,” she snaps at him with more attitude.

Keller’s head hangs low. “How’s uh, how’re you doing?”

“I’m doing fabulous of course, how’s your baby mama.” She snaps at him. Right, now I remember who this is, I never met her before because she was living in Edmonton and she never came down this way for his games. Chelsea dumped his ass about eight months ago for good after finding out that Keller was a cheating scumbag and had knocked up one of his puck bunnies.

“You’re Chelsea?” I ask.

“Do you need your ears cleaned out?” She asks, shooting me a dirty look.

This is just too good. Wow. I fuck his girlfriend before him—hell, I was her first fuck—and now I just realized I bagged his ex-girlfriend too. Fuck my life.
