Chapter 1
Lucca's POV
"So"
"so"
"College is finally over now, huh?" Brea said.
Brea, Tony, Lucca, along with Jeremy their other friends were at Lucca's apartment post their convocation ceremony. They were now college degree holders ready to step into the adult world.
"Can't believe we're going to have to work full-time," Tony said. " A nine to five corporate job that will suck out our entire will to live. No more frat parties. No more binge-drinking and flirting with different chicks every night.
"um"
"Or flirting with guys " Tony continued as he glanced at Jeremy.
''speak for yourself, i have another certificate to get, so my days of studying aren't over'' Brea shrugged.
''Fair'' Tony hummed. That applies to Jeremy and I then''
''You forgetting that I'm here too?'' Lucca spoke up.
''Yeah, but you don't need to work. Your parents are loaded,'' Tony pointed out as he looked around Lucca penthouse.
''I don't plan on sitting on my bed all day burning through my parents' money''.
''Then you can just ask them for a job'' Jeremy shrugged. ''sit in a corner office and boss people around''.
''Well, for your information, I don't plan on doing that.'' Lucca said angrily.
'' Shut up, Jer, you literally took your mom with you to your dentsist appointment last week,'' Brea interrupted, sensing the tension in the room.
'' Dentists are scary.'' jeremy muttered in his defense before taking a long gulp of his beer.
Even though Lucca has stopped throwing parties, she invited a few people over who ended up calling even more. Soon enough, there was loud music playing and alcohol flowing in her penthouse. She was glad the she was the only one lived on the top floor.
Lucca tried to enjoy the party, but what jeremy had said earlier that evening kept nagging her.
Jeremy's word made her wonder if she was good at do something.....anything on her own.
''Tequila for your thoughts?'' Brea asked as she handed Lucca a shot glass. Both of them downed the drink, sending a familiar burning sensation down their throat.
''What Jeremy said--''
''He was just being an i***t,'' Brea cut her off.
''Don't pay him any mind.''
''I know, but....I mean he's not wrong,''
Lucca sighed, ''I probably will just end up asking my dad for a job.''
''Do you want that?''
''Not really,'' Lucca answered.
''Then stop sulking and start applying for jobs. It's that simple,'' Brea said
''Aye, aye captain,'' Lucca replied with a firm nod.
''i***t,'' Brea muttered before getting up and walkind away from Lucca to go toward Tony.

''Do you think you'll be able to move on one day and find someone else romantically?''

''Ashley i don't know. I still love him. I can't just erase what we had just like that.'' She pulled me to a hug.
''It's okay.'' She whispered. ''I understand.'' I pulled back.
''Thank you.'' I cleared my throat. ''I'll see you later I have to go now.'' She nodded and I walked out of my house.
''Good morning Mrs Hansley.'' Bobby my driver greeted opening my door for me.
''Good morning Bobby.'' I greeted back while entering the car. He got in and started driving...
