"I don't think we ever got around to talking about what happened last night with Damien," Kostas said to Jael the next morning.

The two of them were lying in her bed facing each other. Kostas sitting up on his right elbow admiring the woman before him and twirling one of her soft twistout curls around his index finger.

"That's because we didn't get much talking done at all last night," she says poking his still bare chest and chuckling.

Kostas smiled at the amused sounds that left her lips. How is it that this woman was able to laugh and make jokes after the tumultuous night she had? One would think that she should be somber and exhausted from the spent energy of literally fighting and bringing a man to life, but she wasn't. Instead, she was making a sex joke.

Sometimes, Kostas still can't believe he is dating his best friend. Occasionally he'll have this moment where it still weirds him out for a second, but it immediately passes as soon as he thinks about how much he enjoys being around her, the way her mouth curves and eyes get small when she smiles, the fact that she cares and gives to the ones she loves, and how she takes no bull from anyone. Not even him. He loves how brave, courageous, and true she is, but is also vulnerable and human. He likes her, and he has fully come to that realization.

"So, tell me, did you kick Damien's ass?"

Jael smirks as she thinks back on the events, "I kicked his fuckin' ass. Although, he did have me a little worried there for a second. I thought he was really going to kill me."

"Please, you totally had him."

"No, really, Kos. Damien was crazy. He was not playing around. You should've seen the look in his eyes."

"Was?"

"Was what?"

"You said, "Damien was crazy". What happened to him?"

"Let's call the others first. That way I don't have to repeat the story more than twice."

Kostas grabs his phone off the nightstand from his side and texts both Lucia and Byron to come by for a late lunch and "tea".

"Ooo, it smells like sex in here!" Lucia says when she and her brother walk in that afternoon.

"Bihh...you know it does," Jael says jokingly fist bumping her best friend.

"Giiirrrlll! I know it was good too wasn't it. I always imagined Kostas must've been fire in bed. His foine self."

"Girl he had me up against the wall, was kissin' every inch of me, had his hands and tongue on me, was gripping on my thighs and booty like I love!"

"He dicked you down girl?"

"He dicked me down girl."

The girls both squeal and giggle while making their way to the kitchen as they wait for Byron to arrive.
