Learning to love

Everyone has a safe place. Everyone has the one place where they are the most comfortable and at peace. And for most people its home or wherever their family is. For people like me, who have no family, its work. We keep our heads down and we get shit done.

Lexi doesn't like people. The only person she does like is her best friend Liana. shes got no family to love or support her so she doesn't see the point in love.
But when Lexi meets Jacob maybe her mind will change?
Who new one hookup could end like this?

"Oh? Couldn't think of a better pick up line?"
"Damn, caught out but I've got plenty of pick-up lines" I bet he does with a face like that.
"Fire away." Liana would be proud.
"So besides from being sexy, what do you for a living?" This time I'm the one to laugh, well more like snort. Jesus, Lexi.
"That was terrible!" he fakes a hurtful look and puts his hand on is heart.
"You wound me. Let me try again." He clicks his tongue and thinks for a moment. "Ah, I've got one. I was wondering if you could tell me: if you're here, who's running heaven?" he's smirking now.
"Okay, okay, that one was actually decent."
