DANGER.....Curves Ahead!!

CHAPTER 1: Stop Thinking Too Much!

EVANGELINE

KNOCK! KNOCK! KNOCK! KNOCK! KNOCK!

"Bitch, you better not be sleeping!" My roommate and best friend, Payton yells on the other side of my bedroom door. 

I grab my phone off the night stand and look at the time and see that it's seven in the morning and Saturday at that. She knows I don't wake up this early on weekends. 

"Leave me alone and let me sleep!" I yell back at her while rolling over in bed trying to go back to sleep. 

"You've got five seconds to open up this door before I bust it down." She threatens. 

"Whatever." I reply as I close my eyes knowing she's not that strong to be able to break in. 

Suddenly, I hear the noise of what sounds like a tool drill and then hear the door begin to rattle a little. Is she fucking crazy?! I thought as I quickly jumped up out of bed to open it up. 

"What the hell?!" I shout at her as I open the door and see her standing in front of me, turning off the drill with a grin on her face. 

"Good, you're up. Now come out here, I want to talk to you." She says while turning around to head into the kitchen. 

"Ugh. This better be good to be waking me up on a Saturday this early." I remind her. 

I always sleep in my tank top and booty shorts but had decided to put pants on since she is like a reptile and is more hot blooded than anyone I've ever known. So she had the air blasted a lot of the time and this morning was no different. So I grabbed my fleece throw over me and headed over towards the living room.

Payton and I have been best friends since we met in the seventh grade. Instantly we became close like sisters. Except she grew up with rich parents who were always gone and didn't care too much about what she did. However, she always wanted to make her own money too. So she's always had a job. While I had overly strict grandparents who barely would let me hang out with people and didn't have much money. My dad left when I was seven and I have only few memories of him since he was away a lot more than he was home, on business. My mother died when I was two years old and have only heard the stories about her from my grandparents that seemed to have blamed my father for her death for some reason they always refused to tell me. 

I go and sit down on the couch as she walks over handing me a cup of coffee before sitting next to me, drinking hers. 

"So, do you care to tell me what happened last night on your date with Bobby?" She asks me as she takes a sip from her coffee. 

"I knew you'd bring this up." I shake my head while rolling my eyes not believing why she had woken me up for that reason.

"There's a reason why I'm asking." She tells me. 

I look at her suspiciously and curious as to why she wants to know so badly. 

"Nothing happened." I tell her as I blow on the coffee a little before carefully taking a sip from my cup. 

"Look, I already heard about what happened but just want to hear YOUR side of the story. The REAL version of what happened." She says. 

I take in a breath and set down my coffee before telling her. 

"He didn't think of it like a date. In fact, he made sure to tell everyone that we were just friends whenever hot girls walked by. Then towards the end of the night he told me that he only went on the date as a favor for Vinney." I finish. 

"Okay. Good!" She smiles. 

"What?"I asked pissed off. "That's fucked up." 

"Nooo," She starts laughing. "I didn't mean it like that. I meant 'good' because I ended up beating the shit out of Bobby after overhearing him at the bar last night talking with some guys, including Vinney, about what exactly happened last night and it was nowhere near what you said. So I punched the shit out of both of them. Well, wait, no Bobby I did more than punch him once and I just wanted to make sure it was for a good reason." She says proudly. 

"Why would you do that? Vinney could fire me." I snap at her. 

"Trust me, he won't." She winks at me. 

"Well, thank you." I tell her. 

"Of course!" She says as she drinks the last of her coffee. "Anyways, I was thinking that it's been a while since we've been on vacation, relaxed and had some fun." She says. 

"You know I can't afford to go on vacation. I especially don't think Vinney's gonna give me the time off after he hears what you did to his best friend and him."

"Well....." She begins. 

"Oh my god, what did you do?" I asked worried. 

"I kinda got you fired last night." She says hesitantly. 

"What? How could you? Oh my god, I needed that job Payton! You can't be doing shit like that." I snap at her as I get up to put my mug in the sink. 

"Come on, we both know you hated that job. Besides, you can come and work with me at the bar. You're just as good of a bartender as I am." she says. 

"You know I don't like smelling like alcohol and vomit." I remind her. 

She starts busting out laughing. 

"You're so cute." She comments. "Tell you what, you come with me to the Hamptons for the Summer, my treat and then when we come back, you can decide what you wanna do, okay?" She suggests. 

"I can't have you pay for things like that. We made an agreement." I remind her. 

"It was more like YOU made the agreement. Listen, if you wan't, we can think of a way for you to pay me back later so you don't feel so 'guilty' and use that as an excuse as to why you don't want to have fun." She smiles at me. 

"I do not use it as an excuse all the time." I scowl at her. 

"Suuuuure you don't." She tells me. "Just accept the invite, come and have a good time with your best friend and just accept the fact that I love you and want to do this." she begs a little towards the end. 

"You're a dork." I laugh at her. 

"And you're coming with me to my family's beach house where we're gonna have a lot of fun drinking, meeting new people and enjoying life." She says excited. 

I look at her for a moment before finally deciding that she's right. I need to have fun and enjoy life more and I also need to remember that even though I don't have as much money as she does or her parents, doesn't mean I don't pay for things neither. And besides, she's doing this cause she loves me. I would do the same thing too if her I had the money and not expect anything in return from her. 

"Fine! We'll go!" I tell her. 

"WOOHOO!!!" She screams in excitement seeing as to how we haven't been there in a couple of years. 

Next chapter will be posted soon! :)

So I know this chapter is kind of longer than usual but I thought that I would give you guys a little bit of a longer first chapter for this story to make up for yesterday in not being able to post anything. I hope that you all enjoy this story also. And the next story after the other two are done, I will be posting will be The Alpha's Huntress and then the sequel to The Poker Girl! :)
