The next morning Gabrielle woke up to find herself fully clothed and in Mick's bed . When she opened her eyes she found two baleful brown eyes staring at her for what looked like for God knows how long. Before she could react, Mick held his soft gaze while laying his face to the side of his pillow, lashes fluttering. It appeared as though he was now waiting for her to speak.

"Ugh, I can't believe how drunk I got last night," she groaned. "how in the world did we think it was a good idea to make out with that girl?."

Mick arched his thick brow in response and drew back as if concerned , asking, "Girl?.. What girl?"

"Um, the bridesmaid we kissed...That girl."

"Gabrielle..., you have a sick fucking mind girl. There was no other girl last night. The only girl I kissed last night was you."

His words hung like static in the drunken, morning air as Gabrielle quickly  sat up , feeling paranoid. She was really hung over and her memory still felt fuzzy.

"I must have gotten really wasted last night," she stumbled , rubbing her now pounding head. "I could have sworn we made out with a girl."

"You're fucking kidding right?" Mick asked stone faced.

Gabrielle felt her stomach slowly fill with dread. Was she loosing her mind already over this guy? Why did she let herself get so drunk?

Looking around at the strange room for the first time, she sensed things seemed to be out of place. The bedroom was way too adult and tidy to belong to him. I mean this was four post bed with a expensive comforter and there was a throw pillow leaning against her back. Next she noted a cherry brown accent table near the window beneath a neatly hung abstract on the wall farmed with matching cherry wood frames. Worse, She had absolutely no memory of how she got to his house nor the car ride home.

"Did you slip me something?", she asked coldly, her heart pounding. "You're fucking with me right? We made out with a girl and you were the white rabbit. Wait what am I saying. Oh fuck I can't remember".

"Mick cocked his head and slowly began to smile. "White rabbit...? Tell me more".

Mick intensified his arched brow for several long, agonizing seconds , holding his stare, before he finally started sheepishly laughing.

"You jerk!," she screamed while punching his arm. "You had me thinking I was going insane. "So there really was a Unicorn girl?"

"I guess you will never know," Mick snickered.

As she climbed out of bed to collect her things, Gabrielle caught a glimpse of Mick sitting in on the edge of his bed watching her while dreamily rubbing his freshly punched arm. He looked like a golden retriever staring up at his newest chew toy. Now that she knew she wasn't going crazy, she almost felt bad for the poor guy. This wasn't the first time she'd seen this look from a man. Far from it. Out of sympathy she patted him on the head to keep in theme, before tussling his feral hair.

     The realization that he was falling for her neither  surprised nor flattered her for one second. Quite frankly , his attentions created the adverse affect. If she were honest; She felt irritated. Almost angry. All a women needed to do to earn this guy's respect was to decline sleeping with him? It was so backwardly textbook. Once again he was proving himself to be an absolute cave man. Didn't men know that past the age of 18,  women who played hard to get games were simply hatching their own plans?

If Gabrielle had a nickel for every guy she denied sleeping with who claimed the very next day to be in love with her she'd be able to buy herself her own wedding ring by now, which at this point in her life looked like a pretty good option considering her sad dating pool. Either way, yet again , here was another guy hooked, lined and sinkered. "Of course he thinks he's in love with me", she thought smirking. Oh well, she thought to herself...Serves him right.


Thank you for reading ! Men if your reading this - don't glorify a girl for not sleeping with you. It literally means nothing in regards to her "purity" . Instead Admire a women for her character , personality and heart. If she sleeps with you night one it only means she's not ashamed of sex or her sexuality and actually really likes you. And she's probably not a game player.
