Authors note: Strong language

Ellianna's POV-

I make my way back to the dorm to meet Avery and I'm early because the last class I leave ,besides the two I'm skipping today, ended at 2:30. I decided to lay down and try and shut my brain off from thinking about Gage. Yeah so not working. I wish I would have pretended to have been on a date and seen what his reaction would have been. It was bugging the hell out of me that Avery said he looked mad. Why would that make him mad? I can't even believe he asked me about it. Then of course what do I do, what do I always do, I tell the truth. God I can't even lie through a text message who am I kidding.

I decide my brain isn't going to shut down and let me rest so I grab my Kindle and power it up. I find the book I started and press it and it opens where I left off. I, once again, made a wrong decision because reading this book was putting my mind in the gutter. God I would love it if Gage wanted me this bad. To take me in a public place and then I thought about my dream of us in the classroom. I can't even believe I'm thinking like this, I haven't even had sex before. I continue to read even though I'm thinking of Gage the entire time and my panties are soaked. "Maybe", I thought, "I could just fantasize about him". Hey!!! now there's an idea!!! my inner thoughts say and I once again want to punch her because I know she is thinking there is no way he will ever want me. I finish a few chapters before Avery walks in.

I power down my Kindle as she enters the room and quickly get my mind off Gage and say "hey, you really don't have to do this you know?" She just eyed me and said "yeah, well to bad. We are leaving in ten minutes so get over it!" and then smiles at me. She walked over and put her stuff done and asks "So your brothers are really coming?" I haven't heard from them yet but I know my brothers will try and surprise me. "Yeah, I'll probably get a text when they get here." I climbed out of bed and put my shoes on. Avery ran off to the restroom and when she returned asked if I was ready and told me the cab was there. We walked arm and arm down the hall way and she said to me "come on birthday girl lets go make you hot!" I just rolled my eyes and gave her a small smile.

We made it to the salon and I knew the minute we walked in this was going to be expensive. Every thing was modern and very classy. The lady at the host desk was beautiful with long black hair and purple streaks. She had pale skin and big green eyes. She looked like she just stepped out of a glamor magazine and I wondered why she didn't take up modeling instead of working as a host. She looked up and smiled warmly at us, she couldn't be much older than us, and said "hello ladies. What can we do for you today?" Avery walked up to the desk and told her our names and we had an appointment. She looked down at her book and back to us with a big grin and said "yes, we are all ready for you, please follow me."

We followed her into the back and she motioned to one door and said "Miss Moore right this way, there is a robe for you inside." Avery said thanks and walked in. The next door was mine and the girl said the same thing to me. I walked in to the tiny room and there was a modern white love seat, walls painted a dark orange, with a glass table. On the wall next to a full length mirror a white robe. I walked over to the robe and it felt like cashmere. There was a small door and I opened it to find a small closet with a few hangers. I began to undress leaving on my panties, because there is no way I'm letting them do anything down there, and pulled the robe on and tied it. O.My.GOD! I gotta get one of these. I made my way to door slipping my phone in one of the pockets and walked out just as Avery was walking out of her room.

She turned to me and said "I may end up wearing this tonight, I hope you won't mind." and we both giggle. Another woman just as beautiful as the host came around the corner and said "well ladies, shall we let the pampering begin?" We turned and looked at her and both shook our heads yes. "Please follow me" then she half turned and said "hi my name is Carissa and I will be one of your massage therapist. Which one of you is Avery?" she asked. And Avery said "me". She nodded to her and walked up to the table and then pointed to the other table and said "Ellianna that will be your table."
