DREW

Dropping the last box with a thud I slump into the chair closest to me, throwing my head backwards. Moving in was one hell of a stress.

My phone starts ringing, drifting me from my thoughts. Reaching into my back pocket, I take out the phone and take the call without looking at the caller.

"Finally drew! You've been avoiding my calls for too long. I've missed you baby" a bitchy voice speaks from the other end and I realise just who it is. Natasha.

"It's Andrew to you. What do you want" I say my voice appearing really bored and I could tell she sensed it.

"Come on drew what's with the tone?" She asks with a small voice, trying to act all caring when all she obviously wanted was to get into my pants.

"What do you want Natasha" I ask for the second time, preparing to hang up if she kept wasting my time.

"I always tell you i like when you call me tasha" she says, huffing.

I was already pissed" Look Natasha the last thing I wanna be doing right now is what you like. So would you quit the whole drama and..."

"Jude told me you moved into a new house. Want me to come help you unpack?" She interrupts me, and I can imagine her batting her fake lashes as she swirls her hair round her finger which only seems to piss me off more.

"Fuck off Natasha. FUCK .OFF.
" I stress, not waiting for any reply I end the call switch off the phone, tossing it on the coffee table.

The girl didn't know when to quit at all. He was only being nice to her because she was his best friend's cousin. But his patience was already running on a thin line.

They met at a friend's party. They were both drunk and ended up spending the night together. She somehow got his number from Jude and has been sticking around too much since then and he was already getting pissed.

To make matters worse she began frequenting his gym every now and then, claiming she needed to loose a few pounds.

Looking up at the already hanged clock, it was already clocking 9pm.
Deciding it was already too late to continue unpacking, I head upstairs to my room and check up on Olivia.

Opening the first door I get to, I find her already sprawled on her bed with her phone pressed to one side of her face. Pushing the door slowly to avoid waking her up I walk to her bed and gently remove the phone from her face. She turns over but luckily she doesn't wake up.

Keeping the phone on her bedside table, I draw her blanket up to her shoulder and walk out of the room slowly, switching the light off on my way out.

Going to my room, I take a cold shower, relishing the feeling as the cold drops roll down my skin. Some minutes later I'm on my bed, half asleep. Taking out my phone, I switch it back on deciding to call Jude.

He picks on third ring. "What's up" he asks half screaming. And I can barely make out his voice through the blaring speakers on his end.

" Where the fuck are you man" I ask taking the phone an inch away from my ear to reduce the noise coming from it.

"I'm at Jason's party. Remember the one he told us about last week?. And he's really pissed that you bailed up on him". he says.

" Well fuck him" I say and we both laugh.

"You still have to make it up to him tho" he adds.

"Yeah I sure will" I say, rubbing my eyes as sleep starts to take over.

"Alright man, I have to go now" he says, half screaming again as the sound of the music increases.

I end the call knowing fully well he wouldn't be able to hear whatever I had to say next. I set an alarm for my morning jog and sleep takes over immediately.
