AMBER JACKSON
--------------------------------------

"Look who's here, finally. I haven't seen you in days." I say to Jade who had just fallen on the couch beside me. She was dressed in some clothes that resembled that of her boyfriends, her hair covered by a silk scarf. "Yeah well I've been getting good dick, food and love. You only give me two of these things so he wins by default." She asserts with a giggle.

Her boyfriend, Liam was the proud owner of a multimillion-dollar tech startup and worshiped the earth Jade walked on. I never envied Jade, despite how other people may feel when their best friend leaves them to spend more time with their boyfriends. After all of the terrible relationships she's been in, she earned it. Besides, I was too busy and exhausted to care if I only saw her twice a week, because those two days would be dedicated solely to us. We went out to eat, binge-watched netflix, or went shopping with what we had until it was time to return to our overly busy adult schedules.

Liam had already told me that he wanted to ask her to marry him once we graduated in a few months. He even asked me for her hand in marriage, especially since we were both each other's only family. We had previously gone to pick out a ring but couldn't find one, so we collaborated to design the perfect princess cut diamond ring. For the most of our lives, Jade and I were both raised in foster care. We met our junior year of high school and basically bonded over our comparable tragic histories and have been joined at the hip ever since. Never abandoning each other - ever. She was as familiar with my personal deepest secrets as I was with hers, even the ones we shared as a result of our doing.

"Please, I could give you dick if you wanted it. You know dildos come in all sizes." I tell her, wiggling my eyebrows. "Bitch please. I love the real feel of it. Skin to skin, the little twitches, the pulsing all of it. I can't get that from you fucking me with a dildo. You know this weekend we tried out...." she starts, before I stop her.

"Nooooo. No more talking about your sex life with Liam. I'm already traumatized by the story of both your pissing kinks." I basically scream. That was most certainly one of the many days where my eyes were as big as saucers. She was so vivid in her retelling, it took me months to not look at them and have an incredibly realistic vision of them both engaging in sex and pissing on or in each other during sex jump into my head. "Girl, if you tried it you'd see the vision." she says with a hazy smile on her face.

"Yeah, not happening." I tell her seriously. Other than spit and cum, nothing or no one could persuade me to change my views regarding body fluids. She'd walked into the kitchen, where I was preparing mint chimichurri lamb chops, garlic parmesan roasted asparagus, and mashed potatoes and peeked inside the fridge to get a bottle of water. "I quit my job a few days ago." I told her while looking at my freshly done manicure for the interview later on tonight.

"Damn I know you're hype. You fucking hated it there." she says with a cheery smile. "So now I can get Liam to beat up Angelo's weird ass?" Despite being a computer nerd at heart, Liam was surprisingly buff and enjoyed boxing; knowing this, I'm sure Angelo would see images of his grave once Liam is finished punching him to the brink of death. "Girl no. Fuck him and that job. I'm done with that phase of my life." I tell her truthfully. Let's just say that when Angelo cornered me at the restaurant and begged me to have sex with him, it brought back some horrible memories of previous traumas I've buried in the back of my mind, and neither Jade nor Liam were pleased. "But yes, I am glad I left." I told her with a smile.

That job was truly draining my every ounce of sanity and reserve.

"So what are you gonna do now?" she asks, finally taking a seat next to me. The tv was airing an episode of Scandal, which is one of my favorite shows to rewatch, so I pressed pause and turned to face her inquisitive gaze. "Well I have an interview today...." I pause. Jade was not a judgmental person, which was one of the reasons I adored her, but telling her this was strange to say the least - maybe because it was out of character for the most part. "Where?" she asks with a twinkle in her eye.
