I walked in on them kissing. But it wasn't just a little peck, it was like a full on passionate French kiss. Tash looked at me and I blushed so hard. To save me she stopped kissing Kurt and said.

"Hey babes, I cooked dinner," she fiddled with his tie, "how about we finish that first before we move onto dessert?" Wow she could be a stand up comedian. She winked at me and I quickly swapped our phones over and ran out the door, again.

Well that was awkward. I drove home looking forward to my pasta, and cuddling with my dogs. I went for a short run with them before taking a shower and changing into a pair of leggings and a baggy shirt.

Dinner was nice for a change, comforting and hearty. I enjoyed every bite while watching yet another episode of Pretty Little Liars.

As I was doing the dishes my phone rang. It was Tash again. I answered and said,
"Hey Tash sorry about earlier I thought I was doing the right thing by swapping our phones and I'm so sorry that I -"

"Soph," I shut up waiting for the stillness to pass, "he broke up with me." She croaked. I could hear her crying and sniffling between breaths. My mouth dropped. Why?

"Babes, do you want me to come over?" I asked.

"No, it's okay, I'm a mess and the place is trashed with shit thrown everywhere." I heard a clatter of pots from the other end of the phone.

"Do you want to come over here? It's reasonably tidy and you can stay the night if you like? I'm just watching Pretty Little Liars and then going to bed, so your welcome if you want to."

She sighed happily. "Thanks so much, I'll be there in about 30 minutes. See you soon, bye."

"Bye." I hung up.

I cleaned up all the dishes and put a bra and jumper on. I drove like the clappers down to the local supermarket and bought some ice cream, tissues, chocolate, make up wipes, cookie dough, and some chewy. I also got on some ham, eggs, and wraps for the morning. I wasn't sure when my next period was due (because it is so irregular ugh) so I stocked up on some pads and tampons.

Hiding them underneath the food I was hoping that it would be a female cashier. I know it's silly because everyone has it, but for me it's still really embarrassing. I went up to the register and started unloading my basket carefully.

It. Was. A. Man. A very nice looking man too. I was already blushing.

"Enjoy the rest of your day." He flashed a smile to the boy in front of me. He nodded towards him and picked up his bag.

"Hi," he smiled, "how's your day been?" Wow his smile is so contagious.

I must have been starring because he let out a small chuckle and said "Hello?"

"Uh yeah, oh busy and uh stressful." Oh god why is this happening again?

"What's happening again?" He scanned my personal items and blushed. He probably thought I was crazy or retarded or something.

"Uh... I need my medication, if I don't take it, I get dizzy and can't walk properly." Ok that made everything sound much worse, which made me blush harder and him too. Why is this happening again?

He looked at me as if he was waiting for me to do something. Oh right, medication. I checked in my bag for some Panadol and grabbed a bottle of water from the shelf. I found a box tic tacs and thought it was a good cover up. I swallowed some water and two tic tacs and he smiled as he finished scanning everything. I paid and he grabbed the reciept. He quickly scribbled something on it and placed it in the bag.

"Bye." I said.

"See you around." He winked at me.
