I sigh and close my apartment door locking it behind me. I pull my coat closer to my body and begin my walk to the corner store. I grab a pack of cigarettes and a bottle of wine and head back to my apartment. For the past week I have been in the weirdest mood. Never satisfied with how my day has went and as much as I hate to admit it, I've come to the conclusion it is because I haven't seen Gauge. I walk to my balcony lighting a cig and opening my bottle of wine taking a long drink. After 3 cigarettes and half a bottle of wine I find my phone and call Gauge.
G: "Star, hi"
C: Gauge
G: is everything okay?
C: no. I need your help can you send my your address?
G: yes come over I'm here for you
-call ended-
I checked my phone for his address learning he only lives 5 minutes away.

I take a deep breathe before knocking on the door in front of my. I'm greatest with the sexiest man I've ever seen. I am speechless once again. After not seeing him for a week I began to wonder if it was truly possible for someone to be so mesmerizing... turns out it is.
"Star? What's wrong?" Gauge asks letting me in.
"Us I just need your help with something.." I was suddenly nervous.
"Anything what's up?" Gauge smiles sweetly.
I look at the floor and slowly bring my gaze back to him. I walk up to him standing on my tip toes kissing him without another thought about it. "I need you" I breathe.

I wake up on Gauges chest. I smile at the warmth and the smell of his cologne. I reach over finding my phone and checking the time. 7pm. "Fuck" I jump out of Gauges bed grabbing my pants first and sliding them on. "Is this how it's gonna go every time?" Gauge asks a bitterly. "No Gauge I swear I'm just supposed to go out with Ashley at 8 tonight!" I look at him with pleading eyes begging he won't be mad. "Mind if I borrow this it's raining?" I ask already putting his hoodie over my head leaving my shirt and bra on his floor. Gauge stands and walk towards me leaning down a little to kiss me on the forehead. "Let me know when you get home safe" he says sweetly. I kiss him on the lips before running home to get ready.
    -incoming call from Ashley-
A: Chloe are you ready???
C: no I'm almost home to get ready just come over
A: okay my friend said she's gonna ask this guy to come with us. I think it's that guy you hooked up with....Gauge was it?
C: oh well yeah I wouldn't know I haven't talked to him since that night. I'm getting ready now I'll text you when I'm done.

I say hanging up before Ashley is able to answer. I feel a pang if jealousy as I hold on tighter to the hoodie I'm currently wearing and feeling the hockey's grow on my neck. If he does come I'll make sure he regrets not coming with me.
