Back To Me

Chapter 2

Since moving to Seattle I've spent most of my time trying to get completely unpacked. When the hell did I buy all this stuff? I worked at the Cafe down the street from our New York apartment and I wish it was a franchised company because I loved working with the owners. I was able to use all my financial aid for tuition, my rent, utilities, and food, which was great because my paychecks went towards my savings. I wanted to be able to work on getting my book published for a few months before searching for a part time job.

My last box has all my childhood memories and I'm not sure if I want to just put it in storage or open the box. Except for a few items from Ray, the box mostly consist of Christian and I's life together. Sometimes I would just open the box to remember what love feels like. If I had a bad night I would sleep with our photo album. Now that he's engaged I need to try to open my heart again.

I need to focus on getting my stories published instead of being heartbroken. My story is about finding true love but having it ripped away from you because of an evil bitch. Based on true events.

"Ana, let's go celebrate my first day of work and we both need to get laid!" After 20 minutes of Kate begging, we decide to go to Club Rain. The newest club in Seattle and apparently being part of the PR department at GEH means automatic admission.

I'm dressed in a pink dress with black lace and black heels. While Kate is in a silver backless barely there dress. She looks hot!!

"Wow, looking hottie Ana Bee. Damn the men of Seattle better watch out." We walk out to the uber arm and arm. By the end of this night we are both gonna be mashed and I hope to finally get some satisfaction.

I haven't had sex in nearly 3 years. I met a guy name Luke while on vacation in Cancun my freshman year in college and we spent the whole week together. After that week it felt like I cheated on Christian even though we hadn't been together for 3 years. I'm just hoping I can find someone that will capture my heart so that I can get over me feelings for him.

"Wanna dance?" I hear a husky voice ask. I turn and see a gorgeous blonde man with lust filled blue eyes. Holy Shit, Ana's gonna get some!

"Hell yes, let's dance." I grab his hand and walk towards the dance floor.

"Alex Taylor" He must see the confused look on my face

"My name sweetheart. What's yours?"

"A.. Ana Steele"

"Well, Ana Steele, do you want to go back to my place?" He winks then wiggles his eyebrows.

I couldn't speak so I just nodded.

I winked at Kate as Alex and I left the club.

"Welcome to Aunt Sally's, what can I get you ladies this morning?" A friendly waitress ask Kate and I.

" I'll have a spinach omelet with roasted red potato and some OJ, please."

"Make that a double" Kate says before turning back to me with her investigating eyes.

"So who was the hottie and what did you do with him? I want details. My guy was totally dull. So now give me the dets." She wiggles her eyebrows while spinning her hand to indicate she's want details now.

" Nothing happened last night. We went back to his house and talked. We had a make out session and dry humped to release but I stopped it before it went further." I hide my face in my hands because of the look she's giving me.

" Are you fucking kidding me? You had a total 10 wanting to bed you and you stop it. WTF Ana. Grey is getting married. He doesn't want you anymore. You can't seem to get that fact into your head. He is taken, get over him." She glares at me and begins eating her breakfast.

I know she's right but sometimes I wish she had suffered true heartbreak. The feeling of seeing the only person you've ever loved living out their happily ever after with someone else is earth shattering. Kate has never had any relationship last more than 2 week. She was pretty much what NYU would call a bicycle when it came to sleeping with men, but I love her.

Kate and I met in our Professional Research and Reporting class my second semester at NYU. She and I were selected as partners and that was the beginning of our friendship. We haven't always seen eye to eye because she has no filter. We have almost ended our friendship at least 5 times over the last 4 years. I have learned to have thicker skin and to be just as snarky back.

"Look Kate until you have actually been in love you should keep your mouth shut." The shock on her face keeps her from replying before I can continue.

" I never had true closure with Christian and it's kind of hard to go from being completely in love with someone to not seeing them for nearly 6 years. Especially since he is ENGAGED to someone that's not me. So fuck you Kate." I get up from the table and leave the restaurant without a second glance.

2 Days later

"Why???" I groan as my phone starts to ring. Who the hell is calling me at 8.30 in the morning?

"Hello"

"Hi, is the Ana Steele?"

"Umm, Yes, I'm Ana Steele. Can I ask whose calling?" I haven't given my number out to many people since moving here.

" Yes, this is Nathan Trent from Sensational Publishing. How are you today?"

Oh shit.. Oh shit... Okay, Ana stay calm. Breath in than out.

??POV 2 days prior

"Babe, I want to go out tonight." I don't look up from my computer.

"Come on, let's go to Club Rain and get our groove on." She tries to dance "sexy" but all she is doing is making me cringe.

"It's been so long since we had any fun and I need more fun in my life." Her whining is driving me nuts. I sigh and finally look up at her

"I've been extra busy these last few weeks and I would prefer to stay in."

"Can't you just rent a movie and takeout? Or go out yourself?" Oh lord, here comes the pout and fake tears. I wish I could tell her to fuck off and that I didn't love her, but I need her.

My biggest regret is starting this relationship and now I'm fucking stuck in it. Now to stop the whining so I don't have to suffer later.

"Don't cry baby, of course we can go out. Go get one of those sexy numbers on." She squeals, gives me a fast kiss and runs towards our room.

Tonight should be fun... NOT

*Club Rain*

"Come on let's dance." Fuck, I haven't even ordered a drink.

"Let me get a drink. I'll meet you out there." I huffs and goes towards the dance floor and quickly starts dancing with a few other girls. She knows better than to dance with another man so I got no worries in that department.

As I'm waiting for my beer I see the most amazingly gorgeous women dancing with her blonde friend. She looks up and I have to look away before she sees me staring. Holy Shit...

I decide that I've left my girl on the dance floor by herself long enough, so I make my way towards her, but she keeping an eye on my brunette goddess.

"WTF" I hiss out as I see my brunette goddess leave with some douche. My hold tighten so hard that I hear a yelp.

"Sorry baby." I whisper before kissing her lips. I gotta find my goddess.
