Josie (4 days later)

"I don't know if I'm ready for this yet Victoria" As she straightens my hair, I see her roll her eyes in the mirror in front of us.

"How many more times do I have to beg you Jo, you haven't gone anywhere besides work in a month, if Elise was here she would be scolding you"

"But she's not, that's the problem, I never went to a club without her, she took care of me"

"I can take care of you" She sets the straightener on the counter and shakes my hair to give it volume.

"No offense V, but you can't even take care of yourself" Her jaw drops and she puts her hand on her chest offended.

"First of all, Ouch" I smile lightly and kiss her cheek, "I promise if it gets too much we'll leave, It's your call, you're in control today" Even though the time we come back is in my hands, I don't feel completely certain about this.

"You can't stop living Josie, remember what Elise said"

Life is meant to be lived, even if we are alone to do it

I'm not alone...but without her it's not the same. I can't stop living though, I have to enjoy what she didn't get a chance to, for the both of us .

"Fine, let's do this" She smiles big and kisses my cheek, running to her room to get her heels on.

Victoria has been persistently discussing the idea of us going out together, like old times, for over a week. After her constant chatter about it, I grew weary and finally decided to agree. But honestly I wasn't even thinking. I just wanted her to stop talking my ear off. It was only when she came back with that topic, saying that today was the ideal day, since it was Friday, that I realized what I had agreed to.

I went to take a shower and thought about locking myself in the bathroom so she wouldn't make me go, but I remembered that she knows how to pick locks with hair clips, so I gave up. When I was putting these painful lace up heels that I have on right now, I also thought I could hang myself with them, but of course, Vicky entered the room just then.

There's no escape. And as much as I don't want to go, she's right. I need to challenge myself, and move forward. A tiny step

"When you're ready, come meet me downstairs" I frown, "I'm gonna have a quick chat with Jack" I roll my eyes.

"Quick chat sure" She giggles, "I better not catch you guys eating each other's faces or I swear I'll turn back around" She blows me an air kiss and closes the door behind her.

I inhale deeply, slip on a jacket, grab my essentials - house keys, lip gloss, pepper spray, phone, chewing gum, and three rolled joints - and head out of the apartment. I lock the door, double-checking for added security, especially since it's my first night out in a while.

When the elevator reaches reception, before the door opens, I put a hand over my eyes. Just in case. The door opens and Vicky pulls me out, "Don't be ridiculous, I said nothing was happening"

As you might expect, big dick Jack is blushing. Poor thing. Victoria is too open about her sexuality for him, she is a fox and he's a little mouse.
