Bad Boy, Good Lips.

Chapter Six: Surprise

November 2014..

Lately LA has been the usual, nothing to special. I've been so caught up with work lately, I just need a break, but I can't. It's kind of hard to get a break when you're a physical therapist. See, I'm working as a physical therapist for just young kids, and then I hope on working my way up to the pros, which should be in a matter of time, and I can't wait.

Today is Friday, which means I can actually party tonight, so I called up my best friend Jennifer.

"Hey girl!" Jennifer said as she picked up the phone.

"Hey! Let's go get a drink after work!" I said.

"For sure!! I'll meet you at your house at 7."

"Okay. Sounds like a plan." I said as I hung up.

At home..

Work eventually ended and I came straight home to get ready.

I decided to look somewhat hot, so I threw on a red dress that cut off at my thighs, with some nude stilettos, and red lipstick, and my hair natural, which was just naturally colored carmel blonde, and was a curly mess.

I actually looked pretty hot, I was admiring myself but got interrupted by the doorbell.

I headed downstairs to answer it and Jennifer was there.

"Let me just grab my purse and we can leave!" I said.

I grabbed my purse and we headed to the club.

.......

When we got there it was packed, me and Jen went straight to the bar and took some shots. After a couple of shots Jennifer had to use the restroom, so she left.

I took a couple more while she was gone, but she was gone for a long time, but eventually she came back.

"What took you so long?" I said.

"Oh I was talking to this guy." She replied with.

"You go girl! Is he cute?!"

"Yes! He's beautiful!" She said.

"Well, go hang out with him! Have fun!" I said.

"Are you sure? I hate to leave you!"

"No it's fine, you deserve it." I said.

"Okay, I'm sorry!"

"Just go!" I replied with.

She then left and I took a couple of more shots by myself until someone walked over.

"Well, you're quit too beautiful to be drinking alone" he said.

I looked up and saw the most beautiful man ever. He had blonde hair, and green eyes.

"Maybe you can change that." I said flirting back.

"Maybe I can." He said sitting down smiling.

"What's your name stranger?" I asked.

"My names John, and let me guess yours is Goddess? Considering you are one." He smiled again.

"No, it's Athena." I said back.

"Ahhhhh, I was close." He winked.

This man seriously made me melt. He bought me a couple of drinks and we just say there and talked until Jennifer came over.

"You need to come and meet this guy!" She said excitedly.

"Wait, wh-"

She had cut me off by pulling me by my arm, I just smirked at John and went off with her.

"ILL WATCH YOUR STUFF" he shouted.

"THANK YOU." I shouted back.

When Jennifer was done dragging me through the whole club, I was all turned around, and facing the wrong way.

So she had to turn me around, but I didn't know who I was looking at. Jennifer pulled the guy by his arm to come and meet me, when he got there, he just looked at me, he was pretty cute, and Jennifer did have great taste in men.

"Jen, he's a cutie." I whispered to her.

"I know right" she whispered back.

"So aren't you two, a couple of beautiful ladies." The man said.

We both smiled and blushed. This guy was really cute, and wow... Then it hit me.

"Athena, I would like for you to meet the one and only Blake Griffin." Jennifer said.

My heart dropped.

Both me and Blake's eyes widened, I couldn't believe it. Seeing him brought all the pain back. But before Jen could notice I said something.

"I have to go." I said.

"Why so early? Let's part-" said Jennifer as I cut her off.

"Blake you'll take her home right?" I said.

"Yeah sure." He said stuttering.

Jennifer just stood there confused.

I then walked off quickly to go get my stuff from John and left Jennifer and Blake standing there.

When I got to my car I just sat there. I never told Jennifer what happened, I never thought it was something to bring up. And now I kind of wish I had. I began to cry because all the pain and humility came back.

I couldn't tell her now though, she seemed to really like Blake, and I'm not going to stop her, I have no right too.

I was still in shock, I just saw the guy who broke me, completely.

And my best friend likes him, but she's not going to find out about the past, and I'm pretty sure Blake's thinking the same.

I knew Blake lived in LA, and played for the Clippers, and I knew I would have to run into him at some point, but I didn't think it would be this way, involving my best friend.

When Blake saw me he was probably thinking

"surprise bitch."
