I walk into my apartment quietly with a big smile on my face. I make my way through the dark kitchen the lights come on. I yell and trip over my own feet before falling down onto my face.
"Ouch," I wince as I pick my head up from the floor.
I hear laughing followed by a loud smack, then quiet grumbling.
"Are you okay?" Caro asks as she bends down in front of me to look at my face and cringing. "That's definitely gonna leave a mark." I pout at that.
"Why are y'all still up?" I whine and begin to stand up with the help of Caro, while Quinn tries not to laugh at my pain. Bitch.
"We wanted to stay up until you got home. Gotta make sure bae gets back home safely." Quinn grins with her arms crossed over her chest. "We didn't know you wouldn't come back until 2 am. I knew I should've taken my ass to sleep when 12 o'clock hit."
"Well too late, you already stayed up with me, might as well hear about how the date went." Caro says to Quinn before looking at me with puppy dog eyes. "Can we hear about how the date went?"
"I- Caro can this wait until tomorrow?" I say trying not to smile, refusing to look at either of them.
"No, it can not. Bitch do you see yourself right now." Quinn says and grabs my arms, pulling me to the couch to our left. " If you don't tell me why you can't stop smiling right now imma literally snatch that wig off ya head and bleach the fuck out of it."
"You didn't have to bring my wigs into this Quinn!"
"Well I know threatening your wigs would make you talk, now spill!" By now Caro had already sat on the one-seater next to the couch Quinn and I are sitting on. That bitch is waiting patiently with a smile on her face.
"Okay, okay. I'll tell y'all nosy asses."
"This is a part of having friends. You signed the contract and it's legally binding." Caro laughs.
"Stop trying to distract us bitch!" Quinn yells.
"Okay! Aggressive ass. So he took me to this cute restaurant. It was so fucking pretty like I actually should take y'all because the food was really good. But anyway, it was nice, he was so nice and too freaking smooth. I don't think I've blushed so much in my life, to be honest," I sighed.
"Where else did y'all go, because I know you ain't stay at a restaurant all that time," Quinn asks.
"After we finished eating he took me to his cabin, he said he didn't want the date to end that soo-"
"Awww. That's so fucking cute." Caro squeals and bounces on her seat.
"I was speechless. It made me feel good knowing he liked being around me. It feels kind of weird I'm not going to lie."
"What's weird about it?" Quinn asks.
"I don't know. This kind of male attention is weird. I'm not sure if I should be excited about what's to come or cautious. What if it's too good to be true, you know?" I bring my legs up to my chest and rest my chin on my knees.
"I think that overthinking whether or not he really likes you or not is only going to stunt the relationship that he's trying to grow with you. Give him more time to prove himself, and if he fucks shit up then you know he's not worth it and you can leave before any real damage is done." Quinn says shrugging her shoulders while Caro stares at her shocked.

"Since when do you say shit that doesn't hurt people's feelings?" Caro asks seeming completely confused.
"I can talk without being a bitch, bitch."
"Anddd there she is," Caro laughs. "No, but she's right Bella. Just let things flow, for now, you're still getting to know each other."
"Yeah. Anyway!" I slap my hands on my thighs and get up from the couch. " It's bedtime. I'm tired so, night."
"Night!" They yell.

Imagine thinking that for once in your life everything seems to be looking up. You're allowing yourself to open up, and trust someone who you barely know because you decide that you want to take a chance. You decide you want to experience something special no matter the consequences. And you end up getting burned in the end.
