Ally Bennett has just graduated from NYU law school and wishes to find a good job and have a good life. Everything changes the night she catches her boyfriend cheating on her and she has an accident.
Blake Sterling is the main partner of one of the...
"I quit" I told Blake just after he kissed me. I would have loved to stay there get lost in his arms forever, but it was just something I couldnt deal with. He had lied to me, he had hidden me very important information about the night of the accident. He had blackmailed me, he made my life a living hell for three months and even though I realized how much I was in love with him, I couldn't forgive him.
The doorbell rang several times, Mel and Lauren stood there with bags and what not in their hands. Once they hugged me, they barged inside and dropped all the contents of the bags on my bed. "So, honey whatever is going on with you, today you're going to forget about it and we are going to have so much fun." Lauren said while she made a rock and roll sign with her hand and whistled.
"I don't know girls, I was just hoping we could watch a movie and eat ice cream?" I asked not feeling in the mood for going out. When I called them as Marissa almost commanded I didn't think of partying.
"Ally, Marissa told us some details about how you feel. I don't want to be nosy and it's ok if you don't want to tell us, but staying here and mop around isn't going to make you feel any better." Mel said while rubbing my back trying to comfort me.
"So lets get ready!" Lauren said taking out all the bag's contents over my bed. They picked different outfits for me and I went for the one with a short grey mini skirt with a loose black three quarter sleeve blouse and black ankle boots. I put my hair up in a messy ponytail and Lauren helped me with my makeup.

"Shit girl you look hot!" Lauren said and Mel agreed with her. They got dressed and had also incredible outfits. Once we were ready we climbed Lauren's car and we were off.
We arrived to a crowded bar and we got in with a guy Lauren knew. He took us to a table in a balcony from where we could see a stage. Once we were sitting and with a drink in our hands, Lauren stared at me and wiggled her eyebrows. I was pretty excited to know who was going to play.
"So, who's playing?" I asked the girls yelling through the loud music.
"It's a surprise! Mel yelled too and bounced in her seat. My phone vibrated in my purse and I took it out. The screen displayed some messages.
Voldemort: Ally where are you? We need to talk please. I'm at your apartment.
Voldemort: Ally, can we talk, there are a lot of things I need to tell you.
Voldemort: I know I was a jerk to you and I'm sorry. Please. I don't want to talk with your cellphone. Call me. I'll be waiting at your apartment.
20 missed calls from Voldemort
I looked at the messages and my stomach clenched. I didn't want to see him yet. The girls were looking at me but didn't ask anything. "There is this stupid, incredibly handsome guy who's driving me crazy and I don't know what to do." I told the girls. Lauren got closer to me and I showed her the messages.
"Enjoy the night and tell him to fuck off." She said and ordered three tequila shots. Mel shook her head in disapproval.
"Maybe, you should give him an opportunity, Ally" Mel said and Lauren rolled her eyes. The waiter arrived with the tequila shots. Should I give him an opportunity?
"To shitty men." Lauren said raising the shot and we followed her raising ours.
Then The Chainsmokers came to the stage and I was in shock. We sang and jumped and danced and drank lots of tequila shots while the band played. The mini gig ended but the music continued and we were having so much fun.
"I'm hungry" I said. I was a little drunk by that moment. Lauren took a ziplock bag with tiny little brownies. I took the bag and ate one.
"Shit Lauren these are freaking delicious" I said while I ate another one. Lauren was laughing out loud but Mel was shaking her head.
"What?" I said taking another delicious treat.
"They...." Mel said but Lauren interrupted her.
"My mom made them." Lauren said and I ate another one.
"Well tell your mom thank you." I took another bite and Mel rolled her eyes. I didn't understand but the day-later I found out Lauren gave me pot brownies.
A couple of hours later Mel dragged Lauren and I to Lauren's van. We were drunk and even I didn't know I was also high so we were having a deep conversation arguing if Cap America was better than Superman and how we would marry them. My phone went off and Voldemort's name appeared on the screen again so I threw it through the window but it landed in the front part of the van.
"See, Cap America will come and save my phone." I said through a fit of laughter. Lauren was clutching her stomach and she threw her phone too but she indeed threw it through the window.
"Lauren! Shit you are out of your mind!" Mel scolded her and Lauren pouted like a little girl. Mel picked up my phone and was talking to someone but I didn't pay attention to what she was saying and I stuck my head out of the window. Mel yelled at me and tried to pull me back.
We arrived to my building and Lauren had already fallen asleep while I kept talking nonsense about Voldemort, Mel helped me to get down and dragged me to the elevator. Once the doors opened she walked with me to my apartment but suddenly she stopped.
"Good luck girl." Mel said and left me standing there in the middle of the hall.
"Shit. Mel where are you going? I yelled.
I stumbled but tried to walk closer to my door. I was trying to find my apartment keys but dropped all the contents of my handbag on the floor. I was talking to myself because my mind felt like floating. I squatted on the floor to pick up my stuff when I saw a pair of shoes in front of me and raised my eyes.
"Oh oh, Voldemort." I said once I saw the handsome guy who I was trying so hard to avoid standing there.
