I woke up to car honking and Wall Street dudes arguing in the front of the building, instead of my dorm neighbor's headboard banging against my wall.

Grateful doesn't cut it! I need something stronger to express my gratitude for this fine morning.

I bite my lip as I look out the bedroom window, with the events from yesterday night still fresh in my head.

After our steamy kiss we made lasagna and said our goodnights as if nothing ever happened. I know I didn't want to be the first one to mention it but, I need to vent, and it if it isn't to June, who will it be?

My body was begging for more, I wanted him to have his way with me all night long.

I couldn't tell Anui, I hate when she's right, she'll never let go of it. So what? Maybe I do like June. Maybe I've always liked him, that would explain why I was always so submissive towards him.

This kiss would change everything moving forward.

The best thing I could do for now is ignore my thoughts, and go along with my day. I have a ball to attended at five and it was only eleven o'clock.

June also promised that we'd go out for breakfast, so I needed to get ready, quickly.

"I'll have...The egg and bacon burrito please and thank you." I say putting my menu down.

"And for you sir?" The waiter asks.

"I'll have uhhh breakfast hero, thank you."

Apparently a hero was New York slang for sandwich. June knew all about the lifestyle here. It's like he's lived here for his whole life, the man fit in perfect with the city, which brings me to wonder why he decided to stay in boring old suburbia.

"You know a lot about New York City June."

"Mhmm, I used to come here every summer. It's one of my favorite places in the world."

That explains a lot. The way my summers were much more peaceful than when school was in session. All cause he was far far away from me.

"So this was basically your third home? After Jordan and that mansion you call an apartment?"

He chuckles, "Yea you can say that, I think I prefer NYC over both though. There's just so much opportunity here and the possibilities are endless. You can't get bored in this place, there's always something to do and somewhere to go."

I agree. People were constantly running to work, school, or home. Everyone was occupied here, the busy aura low-key makes me motivated.

"You excited for the ball?"

I was more so nervous if anything. Don't get me wrong, having June accompany me relieved some of the stress I had, but I was still terrified that I'd make a horrible first impression in such a professional setting.

"Yes."

"You don't look excited, you lool like you're about to have a heart attack. Calm down, it's gonna be fine."

He reaches for my hand and gently rubs it, the gesture is sweet.

"I-I promise! I'm good. As long as I just go with the script I have I'll be fine. And you're there, you'll help me yea?"

"Of course."

The dress was exquisite, probably hand crafted by God himself. A dark blue mermaid ball gown hugs my curves in all the right places. It was vintage, Anui told me, before she handed it to me the day before my departure.
