| Kristen's POV |

I chop the carrots into mini cubes on the chopping board. I slice the tomatoes  and onions tearing up a bit. Cooking  dinner for my best friends and I. It was just a ladies night in at my penthouse.

I add a little bit of spice to my food ,  working it like a chef. After cooking my meal, I clean up the kitchen heading to my opened space closet which only just has a rack of my clothes on them. I picked out a biege pinkish sort of  pencil dress with open toe gold heels.  I take a quick shower,  wrapping the towel around while I do my makeup. I straighten my hair into my liking.

Fitting into my dress I make sure everything is set and clean. Wine. Check. Stereo. Check. Food. Check.  Me. Fabulous check.

The was a knock on my door and I take a deep breath,  first guest has arrived. I swing the door opened as my smile fades away seeing my Doctor Oliveira.

"What are you doing here Ken?" I ask surprised and worried. Because the last time we spoke was last week, after the whole incident of him finding out that I was pregnant. Especially since he thinks it's his baby. He was in a black tuxedo with his hair slicked back and I have to see he was actually looking really good.

"Nice to see you too baby." He smirks at me,  placing his finger under my chin and kissing my lips softly.

No no no, he can't be doing it. Especially now that I have guests coming over. He walks in, as I shut the door and spreads his arms wide with his back facing me . "Baby, all this for me?"

I roll my eyes, walking into the kitchen, keeping myself occupied. "No, it's not. I have friends coming over, and if you don't mind. Can we talk some other time."

I look at him, seeing his smile drop. "No, I want to met your friends and maybe introduce myself, if you don't mind." He sits on the couch, grabbing chocolate from the candy bowl and taking a bit of it.

"I actually do mind... Please Ken can we talk about this some oth-" I got cut off by the knock on the door. Oh god, another knock that must be them.

I try to get Ken to get up and leave but him  being stubborn he doesn't listen, so I have to just open the door then. I walk to the door, swinging the door open again seeing Trent. Trent as in the bartender. What the heck  was he doing her?

"T-Trent? What are you doing here?" I asked confused seeing him here since I never even invited him here.

"Uhh.. You don't remember?" He looks at me confused as well. I was soo confused as to what I was supposed to remember."You told me last week that you were going to introduce me to one of your friends and so you asked me to come over today... So here I am.. But my guess is you're not surprised to see me."

"Oh gosh no, that was today?! Oh gosh I'm so sorry , I totally forgot, come in come in."  I say putting my hand over my forehead,  feeling like an idiot.

He hands was occupied by a bag full of presents with a card. " By the way, happy birthday."

I grin from ear to ear, happy to see somebody who remembered my birthday.

I hear Kens voice from behind us and I roll my eyes. "Baby, who's this dude?"

"Ken, this is Trent.. A friend of mine." I say quietly because I know he's the jealous type.

"Friend? So a friend just randomly decides to give you a bag full of presents." He says annoyingly, At this point I was getting furious.

"Trent, please help yourself to the kitchen, I'll be back." Looking at Trent, I grab Ken's arm,stepping outside, revealing a perfect view of the city.

"What the hell is wrong with you?!" I yell at him pissed of that he was acting like this especially infront of my guest.

"What the hell is wrong with me? No what the hell is wrong with you, getting random gifts from guys that I don't even know. Smiling from ear to ear, I saw the way you looked at him.. You want him in your bed." The words escaped out of his mouth and I couldn't believe. How he could talk to me like that.

"You know what, I'm not going to tolerate this from you. And I'm not going to let me ruin my night especially since it's my birthday." I look down, trying hard to push back the tears. "So why don't you get the hell out of my penthouse, and don't come back."

He looked at me weird, and his eyes widen "Birthday? Today is your birthday?"

I look away, into the great view not wanting to deal with his crap. "Baby why didn't you tell me."

"Just leave Doctor Oliveria." My voice cracked up a bit refering to him as his medical name title, because I was at the edge of bursting into tears. He takes a huge sigh, kissing me on the forehead and I heard him whisper something like I'm sorry, but it didn't matter to me.

Why do I always fall for the wrong men? I murmur to myself.

"I don't know." I heard Trent's voice behind me.

I flip my hair, turning around to face him. "I don't know what?"

"You said 'Why do I always fall for the wrong men?' And I said I don't know."

I nod at his comment, and we stand there looking at each other. "I guess you're just doing a terrible job at finding them. You go to them first, but they don't come to you."

I just continue to listen, but I lost focus when I started to admire him. I took a gander and him, his hair, his face features, how his grey eyes look soo sexy, his lips. I run up to him clashing my lips on his, kissing him hard. I didn't know what the hell I was doing until it clicked to me that, this was wrong and also the fact that he never kissed me back. I pull back feeling stupid and embarrassed as to why I did what I did.

"Ohh gosh, I am soooo so soo sorry Trent I don't know what came over me!" I put my hand over my forehead shaking my head and closing my eyes.

"Woah... Uhh I wasn't expecting that .,, at all.. Look Kirsten you're very beautiful and smart but.. I don't like you like that..if you understand what I mean.. I'm so sorry." Trent explained, I was a bit hurt but I didn't let it bother me.

"Ohh yeah right definitely.. I'm so sor-" he cut me of as I tried to apologize.

"Don't worry about... Heyy I should probably leave soon, I have to be somewhere son.. But don't worry you can introduce me to your friend another time."

UGHH now I pushed him away, so now I can't even attend that resto-bar since he works there.

I nod as we say our awkward goodbye.

2 hours later

"Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday dear Kirsten.Happy birthday to youuuuuuuuuu!" All my girlfriend sang and screaming. I was soo happy to have them by side especially after everything we've been through.

"Make a wish Kir!" My best friend Shania said. I look around seeing all the p pole that I love and care for around me.

I close my eyes, concentrating very hard since I already know what to wish for. I blow st my candles and the girls make some more noise popping the champagne.
