When Heather came around the corner I knew before I even got in the car she was going to give me one of her famous I don't want you to get hurt speeches. she came to a stop and I opened the car door ans climbed in. " hey girl!' I smiled at her. "So who was it this time?" she asked me. " Heather come on I really don't need one of your speeches this early in the morning." I wined at her. " well sorry for being a concerned friend, this is like the third guy this week and its only Tuesday "she replied. "You really should slow down, what happened to the little girl that wanted to get married to an amazing guy and settle down and have a big house and a nice family?" " yea well you can thank Jason for ruining all that" I snapped. Now I was in a really bad mood. Jason was my ex-boyfriend that I was dating for 3 years and I walked in on him sleeping with my " best friend". " you know I don't do relationships.." I said looking out the window. " I understand that Jason hurt you.. but that was almost a year ago. and what your doing now isn't very healthy." Heather said. "how about we got get some food? ill buy" She smiled at me. "fine." I laughed.
After we got done eating she dropped me off at my apartment. I rode the elevator up to my floor. when I got to my floor I got out and noticed that there was a whole bunch of movers coming in and out of the apartment across from mine." great a new neighbor "I muttered and walked into my apartment and set my purse down on the counter and went to my room and changed into some comfortable clothes. I looked outside and it defiantly looked like it was going to rain. the sky was filled with thick black clouds. I went to the kitchen to make some hot tea, that's when I heard a knock at my front door. I walked to the door and opened it and in front of me stood a man I have never seen before. "Hey do you think I could possibly get some water? my water hasn't been turned on" he asked scratching the back of his neck. "um yeah sure- uh you can come in if you want" I said. he followed me to the kitchen. "So what brings you to L.A?" I asked. "Oh I got a job at the FBI headquarters out here." he said looking around my apartment. " you have a very nice apartment." I went to the fridge and got out a bottle of water and handed it him. " I didn't catch your name" he smiled at me. "oh um my name is Brooke, what's yours?" I asked. "Damiene." He stood up and walked back to the door. he turned around before he walked out. " Thanks for the water.... Brooke" he flashed me one last smiled then disappeared across the hall. After he left all I could think was DAMN I want that boy.
