Hell To Pay

Not Bad Luck

"You got me. I'm not gonna complain that you drag me to your room. I love what I saw." Anthony throw himself besides her and snuggles under the blanket. "Please don't say anything. Chad will kill me." He giggles while Sam tries to catch her breath. She lay her head on his chest while he's playing with her hair. "Are you crazy? I'm not expecting my brother being put in jail for killing anyone. I'm not gonna tell him."
"Thanks. Last time you did it, he broke my nose."
"You deserved it."
"Alright. Sorry. I didn't know that you actually had a feelings on me."
"Ah come on. Isn't it obvious? Nevermind, you'll never understand."

Anythony lit a cigarette and Sam quickly take it from his hand. "If you need a smoke, get out. You know I don't like the smell."
"Right, sorry. I forget that." He take the cigarette back and put that in its pack. They then cuddle for awhile before Anythony remember something.

"This thing.. I mean one night stand.. why you asked me tonight? You don't like it either. Is it has something to do with anything? You looked mad earlier."
"About that... Someone lied to me."
"Wow. Don't look at me like that. I know I lied to you about my relationship with..." Sam cut him. "No, not you. I mean, I get it. You lied to me because you are in 2 different relationships at the same time. That's a reason for lying. But when a friend lied?"
"Why is that matter?"
"Because I feel like I can't trust him again?"
"Him? Who is this person? You knows the rules Sam. It's so hard to keep yourself when you're friends with the opposite sex."
"It is not like you think, dummy. I mean, why did he lie to me? Not only once, but a lot.. in a short period of time."
"If you really see this guy only as a friend, I think it's safe for me to say that you'll not that angry to him. People lie all the time."
"But Tony, I can't get the reason why he lied. I mean it's not he has a relationship with me. He can tell me anything."
"Why don't you ask him by yourself?"
"I don't know.. I really don't want him to think that I don't trust him."
"But, in fact, you don't. You should ask yourself why you're so care about it."

All that he said, it does make sense. "It sucks that you're right. I shouldn't care."
"Don't get me wrong. In fact, you should care. But not in that way. Go ask him. And by the way... Do I know who's we're talking about?"
"Please don't tell anyone.. especially my brother."
"You have my words."
"It's Taylor."
"Wh...whattt? The Foo?"
"Yup. Who else? I work with him."
"Man... he's a good guy. But, Taylor, really??"
"Hey. I didn't say I have a feeling or something."
"I know. You didn't say that, but come on.. I know you for years. I know how's your face when you're jealous."
"I'm not jealous. We don't even know if he lied because of someone or not."
"Ha! I didn't say that. But now I know why you are angry.. you think he's with someone when he lied to you. Got ya!"
"Uh. Shut up Tony."
"Go on. You can shut me up.. physically." He smirks. "You know what? Maybe you should drag me into your room more often. I love it."
"In your dream, Tony."
"Already in! We just had sex, remember?"
"Oh, yeah. Like I lose my memory or something." She says, sarcastically.

"Hey, one more question."
"What?"
"Have you ever sleep with him?"
"Taylor? Nooo. What's wrong with you?" Anthony laugh, "Nope. Just asking. I thought you're mad because you guys had sex before."
"No. Of course not. Idiot!" She pinch his chest, leave a mark on it. "Great Sam, now everyone can see this everytime I get on stage."
"Good. So they know you're a fuckboy."
"Yeah? Not a bad nickname then."
"Ewh..."
"Just kidding! Haha. Don't be so serious."
"Right. Now excuse me. I need to shower."
"Ah come on. Don't want a round two?"
"Nope. Chad must be questioning about where are we right now." Sam gets up and walk to the bathroom. "Can I shower with you?"
"No. Stay there."
"Alright!" She closes the door while Anthony is waiting for her. In the meantime, Sam's phone is ringing with Taylor's name on it.

"Sam?"
"Yeah?"
"He's calling."
"Who?"
"Taylor. Should I pick it up?"
"No! I'll call him back later."
"Okay. I'll pick up."

"Hello."
"Hello? Who's this?"
"This is Anthony. Sam is taking a shower."
"Oh, okay. You're with her?"
"No, haha. If I was, I'm not gonna here picking up your phone. I'm in the living room. With Chad, and Flea."
"Oh, umm. Can you tell her to call me back? I need to.. talk."
"Okay. Anything else?"
"That's all. Thanks Anthony."
"Okay " He hang up at the same time Sam got out from bathroom. "I told you not to pick up!"
"Well I just told him that you are taking a shower. Nothing else. Also, he asked you to call him back."
"Yeah, yeah, I will. Now get out."
"Alright. Let me put my clothes on first."
"Uhh. Sure." Anythony take his clothes and put it on. "Sure there's no round two?"
"No, get..out."
"Okay. But.. if you need another sex.. you know how to find me." He winks one of his eyes before leave her room.

"Now.. the call." Her phone is on the table. She reaches for it and then make a call. "Hey. Sam?"
"Yup it's me. Sorry Anythony pick your call earlier. What's up?" For a moment, he sounded unsure to talk. Even paused on almost every second. "Uhh. I forgot what I need to say. But.. I want to inform you about the show next week."
"Oh, okay."
"Right. Good night Sam." Before she can say a goodnight too, he cut the call.

"Who's that Taylor?" A woman comes up from bedroom and sit besides him.
"Umm. A coworker. Did I wake you up?"
"Kinda. It's passed midnight. You need to sleep."
"I'll catch up. You go sleep first. Okay?"
"Okay."
"Goodnight Nina."
