Fortune and I got to my room. I undressed and she stared at me. "What's wrong?" I asked her. "Why are you getting naked?" she asks me. "I sleep naked," I laugh. "Oh my fucking word! Me too," she replied.

She undressed and we got into the sheets. Her nude body was heating mine up as we cuddled. She was drawing circles on my boobs as we were talking.

Talking to her was easy and the conversation kept flowing. I got to know her more and I liked it. Her accent was very sexy and sweet. She spoke about the most random things ever.

"I think I like you," she said. Wait. She likes me? "You like me?" I asked. "Yeah. And I wanna spend more time with you," she replied. Spending time with Fortune isn't bad. It's actually nice. We fell asleep in each other's arms and I loved it.

I woke up and checked the time. It was 03:21. I went to the kitchen to go get some water. I took a bottle of water and sat on the couch.

"Hey, you left me," Fortune said and sat next to me. "I'm sorry," I reply. "I needed some water," I add. "Don't leave me. Please," she says. "I won't leave you," I reply. "Promise?" she asked. "I promise," I said and pull her in for a hug.

This girl so so different. She's needy. In a good way though. She seems like she's been broken before. She seems like she's been through so much. I don't wanna hurt her.

"Why the fuck are you two here in gowns?" Janet asked. Shit. We must've fallen asleep here. "Uhm... I don't know," I say.

The time read 12:30. We had an hour to get ready for the movie. I woke Fortune up and we went to my room.

"You okay?" I asked her when we got into the shower. "I am," she replied. I hugged her and she held me tighter.

We wore hoodies with shorts and went downstairs. "Where's Thabang?" I ask. "I'm here," he smiled. He has a really pretty smile.

"Which movie are we watching?" Montle asked when we got to the basement. "Can we watch something sexual?" Lea asked. "Yes please," Brooklyn said.

I sat next to Fortune and we hold hands. The feel of her hand on mine made me realize that I have feelings for this girl.

"This is boring. Wanna go out?" she asked me. "Out where?" I asked. "Let's go on a date," she says. "Dressed like this?" I ask. "Okay okay. Let's go change," she laughs.

We wear blue jeans with white tank tops and cardigans. My cardigan was black and hers was black and we wore sneakers.

"Where are we going for our date?" I ask her as we get into my car. "I'm not sure. You choose," she replies.

I decide to drive to The Hussar Grill. "This place seems cool," she smiled. Her small hand took mine and she led me inside.

"Table for two?" the lady asked. "Yes," I reply. She gives us our menus and gives us some time.

"I've never been on a date," I confess. "What? You're joking," she says. "I'm not. This is my first date. I'm glad it's with you," I say. She looks at me with sparkles in her eyes and I blush.

My stupid phone rings interrupting our beautiful moment. "Hey Lea," I say. "Where the fuck are you two?" she yells into the speaker. "We went out," I say. "Out where?" she asks. "We'll see you when we get home," I say and hung up.

I put my phone on Do Not Disturb and place it in the table. We place our orders and order drinks.

The cocktail I was having was really strong and I wasn't gonna be able to drive home. "I'll ask Gomo to come fetch us," I say to Fortune.

We continue to talk and minutes later, our food arrives. The Hussar Grill has thee best steaks. She ordered ribs and I obviously ordered a T-Bone steak.

I ate most of Fortune's food and she ate most of mine. "What's for dessert?" I ask her. "You are," she replies. "Lemme call Gomo," I say.

"Gomo, please come fetch us," I ask. "Where are you?" he asks. "The Hussar Grill," I reply. "I'll Uber with Thabang. Be there in twenty," he says. "Great," I say and hang up.

We order shots and 2 more cocktails. "Can we have the bill?" I ask. The lady comes back with the bill and Fortune takes it. "R100 tip," she says.

"Why are you paying the bill?" I ask her. "I'm the one that asked you out. So I'm paying," she smiled and I smiled back.

I take a few more shots and sit next to her. I press my lips against hers. "I like you," I shock myself by saying. Shit shit shit! "I like you," she said smiling.

"How drunk are you two?" Gomo asks when he sees us laughing. I don't know what was so funny but we just kept laughing.

"Should we carry them to the car?" Thabang asked. "Yeah. I think we should," Gomo replies.
"Nope. There's no need," I say. Fortune and I get up and walk to my car.
