( POV: CORVINA FEARSEY )
"Be honest, it's cute right?"
"Mm-hmm," she nods, not even looking up at me, biting down on her nails instead.
I roll my eyes at her, "what do you think, sunshine?"
"Yeah, it's pretty."
He too appears uninterested in the dresses I'm trying on. I need to wear something nice to the gala, something eye-catching. I'm bored here. I need a little sexy time.
Being a prude brought me nowhere.
I believed in true love and waiting for the perfect person to share that special first time with. Look where that got me. I fall in love easily, and quickly. I actually don't fall, I leap and sometimes I plummet to the ground. I give my all. It broke my heart a considerable amount of times but none of them hurt as bad as Kenna.
She was my first true love. My first sexual partner. My first real relationship. She was my first everything but I was her nothing. It didn't mean a thing to her. She said it herself.
Now that I've had all those firsts, I want something new. Something short-lived, fresh, and exhilarating, and something that doesn't last long enough to break my heart.
Granted that isn't easy because I fall in love when someone holds the door open for me but I'm going to try.
And to try that, I need a magnificent dress. One that screams, 'I'm here for a good time not a long time!'
There will be tons of women at the gala and I'm a flirt. This will work out just fine.
If only Fallon was here to help me decide on a dress. I sigh to myself, I miss her already. But she'll be back soon. In three days.
"Okay, everyone out!" I clap my hands, trying to attract their attention. Sorin gets up and leaves without a second glance back at me.
"Gorgeous," Mera says and I slap the back of her head. "Ow! What the fuck?"
"You're not even paying attention!"
"Sorry," she sighs. "I'm a little distracted."
I nod, "yes, babe. You've been very distracted for days now! What's going on?"
"Nothing," she shakes her head.
I settle down beside her on the bed, taking her hand in mine, giving it a gentle squeeze, "Mera, I know you. I can tell that something is bothering you."
"I have no idea why I'm feeling this way," she ultimately spits out. "I don't understand it and I don't know what to do. It's like wherever I look I see his face and it keeps plaguing me."
My heart aches for her. She misses him so much.
"Mera, it's normal to miss him."
Her head whips up to me, sadness in her eyes. "I wasn't- I hate myself." She sighs.
