"It's my dad's birthday today," Said Emma as she gazed into my bare chest. My hand gently caressed the soft skin on her bare back and she inched closer to me each time it stroked her spine.
"I don't even know what I'm going to get him," she said and her words tingled my skin.
"This is weird," I pointed out. "What is?" She looked up at me, resting her chin on her arms as it folded across my chest. "That we're having pillow talk and the subject is your father." I grimaced and she giggled.
"You just made it weird for thinking about it." She smiled.
"You're beautiful, why are you so beautiful?" "Don't you know that flattery will get you everywhere?" I chuckled. "Oh, is that the saying now?" "It should be." She moved closer to my face and softly touched my lips. Hers was so warm as it touched mine.
My parents had to go out for the day with dad's old college friend who flew in from Joburg, so I invited Emma to hang out, but clearly we did more than that. It was our third time doing it and it was much better than our first time. Our first time was awkward, really awkward, but we moved past it.
"I'm hungry." She said and got out of bed naked. I smiled as I looked at her body, and realised that  I was perving on my girlfriend, if it could be called perving. Perving or not, she grabbed my t-shirt and threw it on only as she could.
"I miss you already." I said and she looked over her shoulder and smiled.
"I miss you already too."

We were at a club in Long street on a Saturday night, Louis, his new girlfriend and me. I felt more of a third wheel the entire time so I secluded myself whenever they became too lovey-dovey, but then that resulted into me becoming depressed and very reminiscent. Soon, I couldn't even hold my drink and stumbled into everyone I passed. I saw Louis and Kayla dancing very closely together just as I stumbled in to someone.
"Watch it!" Came a deep male voice and I didn't even mumble a sorry, just continued walking. This big ass grabbed my shirt and pulled me back to him. "I said, 'Watch it'." I look up at him and the guy's smiling.
"What's up Kieran? Long time no see." He notices I look confused and laughs.
"It's me Joshua, we surfed together a handful of times, remember?" I scanned his face for a while, but in my drunken stupor I just nodded and said, 'Oh yeah, I remember!' Which clearly I didn't.
"Long time no see man, you don't surf anymore?" Joshua yelled over the music. "It's been a while."
"But you know how the waves are this time of year. Fucking fantastic!" He threw his head back as he said that.
"I got to catch up with my friend, talk..." He stopped me mid sentence and started steering me out of the crowd.
"You should meet my friends, you'll enjoy our company." I didn't argue, I was drunk and bored out of my mind.
He talked all the while we were walking to his table, but I wasn't paying any attention. My attention, however, was brought to a girl in a lovely short red dress standing by a table, swaying her body to the rhythm of the music. Her long, curly brown hair was hanging over her shoulders.
"Hey!" Joshua exclaimed to get the table's attention of where the dancing girl in the red dress stood. When she turned around, I was shocked to see Sonja smiling at Joshua, but when her eyes landed on me, her whole expression changed.
