I was awakened by movement on the other side of the bed, then an arm laid across my chest.

"Good morning baby." I rolled over and leaned in for a kiss, my eyes still closed.

"Good morning Lorena," she said as she kissed me back. Just then I realized it wasn't Karen's voice, but another very familiar one. My eyes opened in shock to find Aaliyah, naked under the same covers i was in. I shifted my legs a little and realized I was naked, too.

"What are you doing here!?" I sat up and grabbed the covers as quick as I could, making sure the majority of my body was not visible to her. What was I doing here? What did we do? This was the most confused I've ever been in years, and along with that, I was utterly speachless.

"Just relax, babe." She said in a low, seductive tone. "We celebrated, like I said we would. You enjoyed yourself and I did as well." She put on a devious smile then bit her lip. She then lifted the covers off of her body, showing me every inch of her. I was amazed, yet extremely shocked.

"How did I get here? What did we do!?"

"You came over last night, you took a few drinks and then next thing I know you were all over me. I tried to stop you but you insisted.."

"No, this can't be! Why did you let this happen! You know im engaged, you know I couldn't do this!"

"But you enjoyed it, don't deny it." She smiled again, then got up from her bed and left the room. I followed, of course, keeping the covers tightly wrapped around me. I searched all over for my clothes and finally found them by the couch i last remember sitting at last night. This must've been where it happened.

"What exactly did we do.." I said as I sat down in disbelief.

"Coffee?" She seemed to completely ignore my question.

"Answer me! What did we do!?"

"We did it."

"It?"

"Yeah, IT. On the couch you're on right now, on the floor where you found your clothes, in the shower, and finally, in bed."

I felt my hair and did realize it was still a little moist, and it was quite messy. Aaliyah's hair wasn't in the neat bun it was in last night, her hair was wavy and flowing everywhere. I guess she was right. I gave myself to her for the night, and from the sound of it it seemed like we had a pretty good time.

"I should get going.." I said uneasily. "Actually, before I go, I actually had a question to ask you. How did you get me that classroom? How did you get Mr.Wells to quit? And do you know he died just a few days after?" She stayed quiet for a moment, then came over with two cups of coffee and sat next to me.

"Mr.Wells retired. He was uh, a very spontaneous man and always did things without warning. Now about him dying, I don't know anything.." She remained quiet after that then took small sips from her coffee.

"Okay, I was just kinda curious to know because it was odd how he died right after."

"Yeah.. What a coincidence."

"Yeah.." I decided not to touch the topic anymore, instead i focused my attention on Aaliyah. She was still naked, sitting beside me typing on her phone. Then it hit me, I didn't have my phone on me! I wonder how long it's been since I've checked it and if I've gotten any new notifications. "Where's my phone?"

"It's on the nightstand, I think you got a missed call last night." I hurried to her bedroom and grabbed my phone.

15 missed calls from Karen.
38 unread messages from Karen.
