"Man, I'm just trying to get laid tonight. Don't matter who; I just need a body with a hole in it." Mia heard him saying as he dashed past her as if she were invisible. She hated to admit it, but she felt slighted by his actions and the thought of him screwing around with another woman bothered her a bit.
"Fool…" She muttered underneath her breath and she wasn't sure if she was talking about herself or him.

"What happened?" Nita asked as Mia arrived at hers and Avery's apartment. Nita already had the bottle of wine chilling on ice and A.J. had been put to bed thirty minutes ago.
"Who knows…" She said disheartened as she flopped down onto the sofa letting go of herself. She slipped off her shoes and brought her feet and legs up onto the sofa and tucked them under herself. Nita claimed the opposite end of the sofa. On the table, she set down the bucket of ice with the wine and the two wine glasses that she carried.
"Damn I forgot the cheese and crackers." She said belatedly.
"I got it." Mia said jumping out of her seat and walking back to the small kitchen and claiming the tray of appetizers. She too set the tray down next to the wine and then reclaimed her position back onto the sofa.
"Jayden tweaking?" Nita asked in between nibbles of cheese and crackers and sips of wine.
"Girl he asked me for some pity pussy…" Mia sadly revealed. Nita watched her for a few seconds.
"Are you disappointed that he did or that you said no? Having second thoughts about turning him down, right?" She pried. Mia threw her a glare and then took a sip of her own wine.
"Does it show girlfriend?" Mia sounded worried. Sure she didn't want to be just another one of his conquests, but she had to admit she was attracted to him. Besides out of all of the guys that she had been dating and knew; at least he had a vision and was doing something positive with his life not to mention he was a businessman. There just weren't too many brothers like him around and eventually some woman was going to snap him up.
"Seriously Mia, do you really want to waste your first time on the likes of Jayden?"
"I know but still… I'm tired of guys breaking up with me because I won't put out."
