Mateo's POV

There was no way he was going to work today. He was way too tired. Where did Chase even get the booze?It knocked him out right away, it must've been a hundred years old if it knocked him out.

He looked over at his bedside clock. It was past 6. He knew he must've really past out. He stretched his arm he wasn't alone. There was someone sleeping next to him.

" Good morning, have you seen my panties? I have to leave."

" Well at least I don't have to kick you out."

" You don't have to do that, my time here is over. I had a great time last night."

" There!" He pointed over the chair where her panties were

" Oh I didn't see them." She wore them under her dress." You should call me if you ever want a good time." She left her business card on his nightstand and left. He picked it up and read the name out loud, " Kylie Slant, Pharmacist."

" I heard her leave. I'm so burned out."

" What did we even have last night?"

" I have no idea, I just brought the liquor and some coke and Kylie and her friends took care of everything."

" Where did you even get her?"

" Funny story, turns out I was still hung up on Aspen. So I went searching for an innocent girl in a hospital and viola Kylie. Turns out she's quite the animal."

" I like her. She didn't linger in my bed for too long."

" I knew you'd love her. She tastes good too."

" You fed on her?"

" Wasn't I supposed to?"

" I thought you only feed once in a month?"

" Well things changed, I feel like a swim. Race you to the lake?"

" I just woke up."

" Oh comeon, you can't tell you you're
hung over. We have so much alcohol tolerance."

" I kinda am actually."

" You probably need the swim more than I do. Comeon."

It was back to the office for him after the swim.

" What are you doing here Karen?"

" I hate you Mateo."

" Join the que."

" You use me when you want to and drop me just like that."

" Karen you know I'd never love you, stop trying so hard."

" Why can't you? I've been here for you than anyone has ever been. I know your secrets and I don't judge you. Why can't you just at least pretend you care?"

" If I pretended would you atleast leave me alone?"

" What's wrong with you? Why do I even bother?"

" I'm asking myself the same question, you can have any guy you want but you're here obsessing over me. It isn't healthy."

" You don't know what's healthy for me and what's not."

" You're right, I don't. So why are you here? Besides trying to get me to like you ofcourse."

" We have to talk. The council meeting is..."

" Why would I discuss council matters with you Karen?"

" Because you need me."

" I don't."

" Trust me you do."
