"Want to know how I felt with the thought of another man's touching what's mine?" His finger edge deeper inside of me, tears dripping down my face, light sobs echo throughout the room.
"I was envious." My fingernails dug into his skin, sobbing agai...

DAWN DRAKOS Seattle, Washington . . .
The alcohol was a memory of warmth in my stomach as I sat on the ottoman in my closet before my best friend.
"Black or pink?" I held up two mini dresses and waited for a response.
Aslyn muffled words sounded from my bedroom. "Black!"
I smiled at the response, my stomach floating away with the guilt and tears that were sprung free earlier this afternoon and replaced with the warm buzz of the shot of vodka we took before we started getting ready.
"Mmhmm," the dress was short, something Aslyn loved and I hated about it. One move and you could see my thong. feeling the chill run up my leg, I knew it'd been a short dress.
"You look hot. men are going to devour you tonight," Aslyn said stepping into the walk-in closet, and eyeing me up and down. Once she heard about my uninvited visit, she was at my door with a full bottle of vodka and ensuring me I needed to let loose tonight.
Still, I will rather be home. I was exhausted mentally at least, I didn't know how much of a toll my family takes on me but...I still couldn't help the feelings that danced within me. Roman...
"Get out of your thoughts babe," Aslyn's hands met my shoulders, tipping her head until it rested on my shoulder. "Just have fun tonight, let your fears and your troubles fall away. Just for tonight,"
"It's harder than you think," I hummed, looking at my reflection in the mirror. Black silk material clings to my skin, the silver straps similar to diamonds reflecting off the light. My hair flowed with light curls from the rollers, overall I felt pretty.
"It might be, but that's nothing alcohol can't fix," She smiled, another reason I loved her. Positive energy flowed through her, she was my safety net.
I watched her turn towards my jewelry, Aslyn has an eye for fashion. It was her passion and she knew just how to pair the right jewelry, so my smile widened watching her place my black and silver van clef necklace along my neck.
"Just needed to add the final touches,"
The sky was dark, and there were no stars upon us tonight, Aslyn's phone flashed and buzzed for the twentieth time since we had been in the backseat of the car. Ironically enough, Aslyn was a girl version of future, she played with boys' hearts like cat and mouse.
"Can you read this, Dawn?"
"No," I protested. "the last time I did that, I saw a man's erection the size of my foot," it was odd because I wear a size six.
"In my defense, I did not know he was going to send that," she laughed, pushing the phone closer to my face, "Just tell me the name, please,"
Ugh. I reached for the phone and read it. "From captain hook Derek,"
