As I walk through the front door of my apartment saying on the phone with an ear to ear grin on my face, "I'm finally home. Since someone isn't technically home until they walk through the front door", Fei comes up to me with excitement in her step, "As much as I hate to cut this conversation short…" he cuts me off through the phone saying, "Then don't."
A small chuckle escapes from my lips, "Very cute, well thank you for a…" he cuts me off again saying, "Well as the girls say cute is for dogs I'm handsome— sexy— shall I go on?"
I smile harder, "You're elongating this conversation."
I can hear the smile in his voice, "Is that really so bad?"
Taking off my coat and shoes in the hallway while Fei locks the door behind me, "No, but we both have work in the morning."
"Mmm, maybe that's just you." I opened my bedroom door where I began to get ready for a shower.
"Well then I'll need my rest and tomorrow you can come, see me for lunch."
"Oooh, making dating arrangements already. I like that, what time?"
In my robe and shower slippers, "I'll text you."
"Are you really going to text me?" He asked me suspiciously.
"Yes, after my shower. I have to get ready for the next day."
"Sweet dreams."
"Thanks, you too. Bye." I hung up the phone and tossed it on the bed and headed into the bathroom to take my shower.
Leaving the bathroom, thinking about the kiss and the highly flirty conversation, rehashing the whole conversation from beginning to end in my room as I put my clothes on.
Walking outside into the living room where I can see Fei looking at "Beauty Inside" and I said, "You're lucky. Playing my favorite drama, now why on earth did you tell him about the other night after I told you not to?" I sit on the long end of the couch.
A small sigh escapes from her lips, "Well, I figured that after a night like that you'd want something pleasant. And— and you got it," she scoots closer to me on the couch, "so tell me all the details from beginning to the not so distant end because things were steamy with that phone call." She says in a sing- songy way.
I look at her to the side while my lips are in duck lips, turning to face her with a grin playing on my lips and she presses pause on the video saying, "Okay, it all started while I was walking down the street and he followed me which I didn't know at the time. Then I attacked him after assuming he was one of Quinton's goons, he had to calm me down to see that he was Lucas. Afterwards we went to his place, where we talked and had wine."
"Oooh, sounds romantic."
Looking at the corner thoughtfully, "Yeah, it was. Then things almost got a little racy."
A small gasp escapes from her lips, "Racy? Oh, please define."
"We kissed in front of his front door and I absolutely loved it. I even wanted to stay with him for the whole night."
Fei gasps again, placing her hand over her chest in a shocked way saying, "My best friend is involved in some sexy behaviour. So he wanted to— you know— have sex with you tonight?"
A small scoff escapes from my lips, "I don't know. It seemed like he wanted to and knew I wanted to, which was why I stopped myself. But that kiss was absolutely amazing— I got butterflies kissing him Fei."
She says leaning in, "So you think he's the one?"
Another scoff escapes from my lips, as I shake my head, "I don't know, but what can I say nothing is ever really impossible— right?" I turn to ask Fei. She shrugs her shoulders and we sit there in silence thinking.
The silence stops when Fei says, "You know what, that's something that we can figure out at the right time— when the time comes of course and things will make sense." I nod my head, she makes a lot of sense. Maybe that's what makes me a little anxious about our relationship. I shake my head, no— let me not think about that right now— right now I just need to stay in the moment with my bestie Fei and watch "Beauty Inside". As the night continued on, Fei and I passed out on the couch for the rest of the night.
A sigh escapes from my lips as I sit up from off the couch, "Ready for another day of work?" Fei said, drinking her cup of hot coffee. She had another cup of coffee in her hand and gave it to me, I stretched my hand to take the coffee from her, "Thank you. You know, Lucas and I are going on a date for my lunch break today."
She walks back to the counter to lean on it, "You need someone to cover for you?"
I scrunch up my face, "You think I should tell him after work instead, so that I can come home, take a shower and get sexified."
Her eyebrows raised up, "So it's a look thing for you?"
I sit up close to the edge of the couch. Lifting the cup close to my lips, "No. Is it wrong to look good for him?"
Fei places her cup in the sink, "No, but try looking good for you. It'll make you feel better."
I look to the side, making an attempt to rethink things over, "You know what, I think that you're right. I should look good for me anyways." I said with some reassurance in my voice.
"That's the spirit. Anyway I have to go now before Joyce loses her shit about my attendance."
"Yeah, the bitch is back and ready to give hell." I said as I was standing up from off the couch.
Fei walks to the door as I make my way to my bedroom and walk through my room. She says before leaving, "I'll see you there, be safe on the streets okay?" I nod my head and she walks through the front door.
I pick up my phone and I go to my message box to text Lucas. Me: Hey, you can come around five pm, that's when I'll have my lunch.
Lucas: It's about time you got to me, I was waiting all night for your text.
Me: Aww you waited on little oh me, how sweet.
Lucas: Now who's being cute?
Me: As you said yesterday cute is for dogs, I'm beautiful, sexy and gorgeous shall I go on.
Lucas: Hahaha very funny. I like that. I'll see you later okay, have a wonderful day and be safe.
He sends me a kiss emoji and I got myself ready for work.
