"FUUUUCCCK" I banged my hands against the hood of my car and took a deep breathe. My new neighbor Leo came rushing out "are you okay" she closed an tied her robe shut before approaching me more. I looked up and all I could do was shake my head no. I slide down my car an sat on the ground letting my head drop to my hands. She squatted next to me after a few minutes "come on let's get you inside" she extended her hand to me but I just got up and brushed off instead. "Thank you.. would you like something to drink" I offered as I dusted myself off. She looked at me with a hesitant smile.
"It's the least I can do after interrupting you relaxing" I said smiling flashing that single dimple. "I guess a drink wouldn't hurt" Leo grabbed my hand as I helped her stand an lead her to my front door. "Just one drink right? Cause I need to get back to writing" she explained as I unlocked the door and opened it gesturing for her to enter. "Yea haha just one drink... what's are you writing if you don't mind me asking" I asked as I closed the door an head towards the kitchen. She meet me at the breakfast bar "well a new song actually.. that's why you caught me so "relaxed" .. ha but when I heard the scream I had to come check on what was going on" we looked over at each other laughing as she beat me to it. "I know, I know but hey I'm actually glad my curiosity peaked" I smirked as I poured her shot an my own. "Yea me too... so anyway.. you liking the neighborhood so far? Adjusting well" she looked over at me an laughed. "Is this the small talk portion or just your way of avoiding talking about what had you so worked up" I chuckled as I walked towards her. "Maybe I just wanna hear about you.. I've been talking to me all day" I laughed "I think I could use a break from me for a bit to be honest" we both let out a light chuckle. "It hasn't been so bad to answer your question. I'm still settling in but I like it so far" she took a sip of her drink an we locked eyes for a moment. "Well .." I broke the silence "do you always write looking that good? Excuse me off that's to forward " she smiled at me an shot back her drink. I followed suit "ha.. maybe" she finally replied with a smile. I licked my lips as I disconnected from our stare clearing my throat.
"So ummm..." I went in to the fridge and grabbed two water bottles. "Would you like a water" she pointed towards the pack of waters on the floor. "Yea as long as it's not cold" she smiled and I grabbed her a bottle from the pack. "Haha what's your beef with cold water" she looked at me like I asked to fuck her on the counter, then we both burst out laughing. "No beef I just prefer to drink room temp water" she drank half the bottle down then stood up. "Alright I'm gonna head back to writing. Thank you for the drinks but we are two into the promised one" I smirked "damn you caught me" I walked around to walk her out. "At least let me walk you out then" she nodded smiling. "Thank you for checking on me and distracting me for a bit and I apologize for keeping you from your creative process" I offered her another water bottle to wake with her. "You're welcome and it's ok I'm going right back to it" she grabbed the water and grazed my hand "thank you for the water too" I watched her walk back to her house before closing my door. I fell back again the door an let out the biggest sigh. Damn.. what a fuckin Day!
I rolled over and the alarm clock read "6:34am" I reached for my phone to see if I missed anything. Alia called twice, Danni texted saying "wtf E? Of everybody.. EVERY FUCKIN BODY YOU FUCK VICKI" I locked my phone an let out a deep sigh. I got up to head to the shower, I stopped at the mirror looking at myself an shaking my head. I heard my phone ding an I dreaded to see who it was. I turned to get into the shower instead, whoever it is can wait...
My shower was certainly love. I finished drying myself off when I heard my phone again. I walked over to the nightstand and grabbed it. "We need to talk" I kept scrolling "are you really ignoring me right now ... really Eva? Fine I'll be there soon then an we will talk" just as I went to respond I heard a knock at my door.
"Eva you know I know you're in there right? I really will be quick please" I sat by the door listening to Victoria. "Look I just want to understand.. I just wanna know w-... why you didn't say anything to me" she rested her head against my door and all I wanted to do was open it. "I really need to get going.. but... I ju-" I opened the door an saw Victoria's face was full of tears.
"I'm sorry.. I ju-... I couldn't" we sat there just looking at each other for a moment. Then nodded and turned to leave "V.. I really am sorry" I started to close the door when she turned back an asked "was I revenge or just a conquest" I walked up to her and reached for her hands. "Everything and I do mean Everything between us was organic natural. I would never do that to You or Danni" I pulled her in for a hug and she settled into it for only a moment. "I have to go.." she hurried to her car an pulled off. "Fuuuck" I just shook my head.
