Scarlet sets out on becoming an independent woman, leaving the home comforts of her London life after she lands the role of Digital Marketing Manager for Manchester City.
After ending her long term relationship, she had no intentions of getting int...
A couple of weeks had passed since our spa trip and due to a combinaton of training and away games, I hadn't seen Erling much since.
I had been spending a lot of time with Sasha and she had soon become a good friend. I had opened up to her about my feelings for Erling and she was so ecstatic about the concept of going on double dates that I think she wanted things to progress just as much as I did.
It was Friday and Erling had invited me round to his house for dinner this evening. Sasha was led on my bed as I returned from my ensuite after trying on what must have been my fifth outfit so far.
She scrunched her face up at the black jeans and off the shoulder white top I was wearing.
"It's just not very...you." Sasha said, continuing to rummage through my wardrobe.
I sighed. "Seriously, what are you supposed to wear to a dinner date at a guy's house?!" I exclaimed as I sat back onto my bed. "I officially give up. Maybe I should just cancel."
Sasha handed me a simple black dress. "This one. I think this is the one."
I rolled my eyes at Sasha as I took it from her hand and walked myself over to the bathroom to try on get another outfit. "It better be or I am actually giving up!"
"So do you think tonight's the night?" Sasha asked through the door as I slipped the dress over my head.
I walked back into my room. "I don't think so." I said as I did a small twirl.

"He's not going to be able to keep his hands off you girl."
I felt quite smug as I looked at myself in the mirror, watching how the dress exentuated my bum as I turned around.
"You've been seeing eachother for a little while now, Scarlet. It is okay if you sleep with him, you know."
"But we're not official, Sash. All we're doing is chatting and going on some dates, he could be fucking other girls for all I know." I said as I smoothed out my dress with my hands.
I had told Sasha about my long term relationship and how I hadn't been with anyone since. Since then, she couldn't resist egging me on to make something happen with Erling.
"I'm sure he's not." Sasha spoke. "I've seen the way he looks at you and the way he speaks about you to Jack. He's smitten with you."
I smiled to myself at her words.
"I just don't want him to get what he's after and then not be interested in me anymore."
