Adena felt twice as better once she and Craig returned to his apartment. She had a few bags of clothes from her favorite stores. Retail therapy was underrated. It felt good twice because men's clothing, as much as she looked good in it, was more rugged. It was good to wear clothes that fit her that were brand new instead of recycling her outfit from Saturday. She was literally thinking about burning the outfit in the fireplace and reimbursing Kimberly for it.

Ok, this burning clothes in fireplaces can't turn into a regular thing, Adena...

Getting new panties though wasn't as fun without a husband or boyfriend around. They LOVE it and give the best compliments when they do. Adena had to learn again how to just model them for herself and unfortunately, that depressed her. 

But teasing Craig in Victoria's Secret made it all worth it. "Hey what you think about these?" she had asked him and then tossed a g-string at him. It almost hit him in the face. He turned pure red and didn't know how to answer as he fumbled with the g string and put it back with the others. She chuckled, reminiscing about it, which she did several times throughout the day.

By later that night, they were both relaxed, in his sweats, sitting on the couch and munching on leftover Chinese food. "We gotta find a way to work that food off," she said with a laugh as Next Friday ended and the credits rolled. "Wow I haven't seen that movie in a long time," she said to him. They had a full comedic movie marathon. They watched "Dumb and Dumber", "Friday" and "Next Friday". "Ready for 'Friday After Next?'" she asked him.

Craig looked at his watch, "Unfortunately, I have to get ready to go."

"Where you going?" she asked him.

"I have to DJ. I still have that job at least. I can dance off all this food we've been eating" he said to her and then looked at her. He had fun with her but he didn't want to leave her here. "I don't want to leave you here-"

"Well do you mind if I come along?" she asked him. Not believing that she was asking him that, she wasn't a clubber at all but if she stuck by Craig, she probably would have fun. She knew from experience that he would look out for her.

"Are you asking to sit in the DJ booth with me?" he asked her.

"I can sit with you in the DJ booth?" she asked him. He nodded, "Yeah, I wanna see what life as a DJ is like."

"Ok...sure," he said with a smile. "I'll be right back," he said as he got some clothes together and went into his bathroom.

While he did so, she changed into her new outfit and ran her fingers through her long straight black hair, she looked in her purse and dabbed some perfume on herself, and put on some light mascara and lip gloss. He walked out of the bathroom and she smiled. He was cute. He had on another pair of designer jeans, Timbs, a tan-colored sweater with a tan toboggan over his head.

"Ready?" he asked her.

"Sure," she said as he went into his closet and got out his equipment. "What club are you playing tonight?"

"Fever," he said. "Your favorite right?"

As we know, Adena has been here several times but this time was a different experience. They went through the back door of the club, no hassle at the velvet ropes, no freezing waiting outside. Craig immediately started setting up. A waitress delivered his favorite drinks on the house.

"Oh you got a new friend here," the waitress said when she saw Adena. Usually one or a few of the regular groupies were up here but she was brand new. "What can I get you?" she asked her. Adena felt like she was in VIP or something. 

"Get anything you want," Craig said to her. "No whiskey though."

"Shut up," she said to him with a smile. "Um...wine? Red? Moscato?" she asked her. She nodded and went back to the bar.
