"Don't ask me how it happened? It just did!"

Ava looked at Elana incredulously. She was lost for words.

"But I'm telling you, that was the hottest make out session I've ever had. Maya is a great kisser! And I never really noticed how soft a women's body is before."

"So what are you two going to do now? Will it be awkward in the future?"

"Awkward? Why would it be awkward? We didn't really discuss anything before I left, but who knows? " Elana looked thoughtfully. "I'm a little curious myself now." Ava just stared in disbelief.

Bzzzzz. The building intercom buzzed. Elana checked the video and saw Jake standing there. "It's the finance douche."

"What? What does he want?" Ava pressed the intercom, "What do you want Jake?"

" I just want to talk to you," Jake said in a pleading voice. "We've got nothing to talk about," responded Ava.

"Please? Just a few minutes." Ava furrowed her brow, "Fine. Wait there, I'll be down in a minute."

Downstairs, the lift doors opened up and Ava walked out. Jake rushed forward, then stopped.

"Ava, I just wanted to see what I'd done wrong? I still want us to be together."

Elana, who was watching and listening through the intercom, shook her head and mouth Fuck off finance douche.

"Sorry Jake. As I said before, this is not about you. It's about me. I know it sounds corny, but it's the truth." Jake stepped forward. "Is this because of that girl?"

Ava looked him directly in the eye. "Partly, yes. She's made me realise what I'd been missing in my relationships. What we'd been missing. So I didn't leave you because of her, only because she made me to realise something."

"Do you love her?" he asked. "I like her." Ava replied.

"I think you're probably just confused," Jake said taking hold of Ava's wrist.

"Let go Jake, you're hurting me!" Ava tried to wrest her arm from his grip, but he was too strong.

"Please? Ava" Still not letting go.

"LET GO! JAKE!" Ava yelled. With her free hand she slapped him across the face. Suprised, Jake released his grip.

Walking quickly back to the lift, Ava shouted over her shoulder, "Leave Jake! Don't try to find me again! Please." Jake stood there, wacthing as she entered the lift. Once the doors closed, he turned and left.

"I only kissed her as a joke! Who would have thought that she would kiss me back!?" exclaimed Maya. Lena had been laughing for the last 5 minutes, so much so that her stomach was starting to hurt.

"She's got some guts that one. She's not afraid that's for sure. So what are you going to do now? Just pretend that nothing happened?"

"I don't know... I kinda like her," said Maya, giving Lena a sideways glance.

"Isn't she straight though? Maybe she was just curious after you caught her by surprise."

"I know. I know. You're right. I just need to forget about it and pretend it didn't happen." Maya said, looking downcast.

As she said this her phone lit up with a message. It was Elana.
