The one night stand

CHAPTER THREE

Alexis

This was the limit,I was feed up, I was tired. How unlucky was I, this was just more than being unlucky it felt more like a curse. I have been ,everytime it ended in tears. If it was not for my body they wanted me my money ,but why me. Was I that bad or maybe its just that tolerated the s**t. Well if it's my fault then I guess this was the end of it ,I was done like really done. I was not gonna date again.

Hie friends my name Alexis and this is how I turned from a straight girl into a lesbian. Ever since high school ,I was one of the hot girls with a luxurious life. My parents were rich ,all my elder siblings were abroad and they were dead rich as well so I had everything any kid can wish for but even tho my family gave me everything there was one thing they could never give me and that one thing stressed me out and that was love. Okay lemme not confuse you guys ,the love I mean is not the love that the family is supposed to give you nah ,I mean the love love like the girlfriend and boyfriend love . I have been in a lot of relationships and in all of them I was very unlucky it was either the guys loved me for my body because I had a beautifully curved body and a flat tummy infact I was the definition of beauty not that I am sure of it tho but that's what most people told me or they loved me because I was rich I mean my family was rich because I was that type of girl who would take her guy shopping and even pay my boyfriend's bills. Its really crazy right? Yeah I know it is, I was crazy and I always fell in love really quick. So let's jump into what changed me .

I was in a relationship with a guy for two good years ,I loves him I thought he loved me too but I was wrong. I helped him with his bills for almost all the time we were dating because he's job did not pay him well and besides I did not mind helping him out as I thought I was just helping out the person I was gonna spend my whole life with. WRONG..... He did not see me as a wife material than just his walking ATM. On our three year anniversary that when all of the actually became clear to me. I was busy planning a surprise dinner for my boyfriend when I remembered he was off day so I just decided to go to his place and spend my day and go out for dinner later on the day. I wanted to surprise him so I did not call him I jut went straight to his place.

I called my friend and told her to do the reservations for my dinner at an luxurious place she could find. I told her I was gonna surprise my boy and she just said okay and we hang up the call. I drove to my boyfriend's place and when I got there he was surprised as I expected but was very happy, well that's what I thought. We hugged and that's when I smelled a weird scent on his t-shirt , it smelled like a woman's perfume and not just any woman's perfume but I was sure I knew that scent from somewhere but when I asked him he brushed it off and swore it was one of my perfumes so I just forgot about it because I trusted him. The rest of our day was beautiful, we did all sort of things together and crying out loud we even discussed about our engagement that was supposed to happen two weeks after our anniversary on my birthday.

It was already time for us to go out for dinner and he was showing when his phone rang and I just picked it up from the bed and took it to him in the shower but that's when the call wallpaper caught my eyes it was my bestie's favourite teddy bear's picture I gave him his phone and went back to sit on the bed questioning myself why he had that pic. I know right now some of you are wondering how did I know it was my friend's teddy and not any other teddy ,well I will explain for you. You see me and my friend were really close and when we bought that teddy we were together and I was the one who took that picture the other day I went to her place and that picture was in her phone only and you might say what if she posted it and your boyfriend took it from the post well she has never posted it.

I rubbed off the thoughts but deep down I had this urge to go through his phone. Ever since we dated I had never had this feeling of not trusting or suspecting my bestie but that time I wanted to check his phone because besides the teddy the name of the caller was really weird. He finished bathing and he changed and we were good to go. I was driving and I noticed something unusual on him all the way he was on his phone and not that I was insure or anything like that but this was unlike him but I did not bother complaining because I did not want to start a fight and spoil our night so I just put on some music and left him to concentrate on his phone.

We reached our dinner spot ordered our meals and we talked and laughed but his behaviour was kinda odd like he kept checking his phone every now and then as I'd he was expecting a call or like he was checking time as if he was in a rush to go somewhere. I was getting pissed but I kept my calm and thought of dismissing him so I thought I was tired and I wanted to go home. He quickly said it was fine and said I was supposed to just drive home and that he was gonna take an uber ,I was kind of surprised but I did not care much about it since sometimes he used to do that when we are late from our dates. He walked me out and I left him there and drove off but before I drove too far from there a car passed me and I don't know what made me look at its number plate and I saw it was my friend's car. Am I overthinking? I asked myself so I called my friend and asked her where she was but she kept stammering and at last she said she was at her mom's which was a two hour drive from where were lived, I asked if she had took her car with her she said yes and even asked why I was asking her that and I just said I wanted to borrow it for an event tomorrow and she said fine and we hang up the call.

Was I seeing stuff now? Because the car that passed me was really my friend's car so to clear the doubts I I packed on the side of the road and stopped a taxi and asked it to follow my friend's car ,we driven for about an hour and they stopped at a hotel and I payed the taxi and I got down and behind one of the cars in the packing lot waiting to see who was in my friend's car. I almost got a heart attack when my boyfriend got down from the driver's seat and opened the passenger's seat and my friend got down looking all s*x and beautiful. I was puzzled for a moment was I overthinking this ,I followed them inside and made sure they did not see me and as if it would not get any worse they went into one of the rooms together. While I was trying to process everything I saw a waiter about to knock on the door. I rushed to her and stopped her from knocking and pulled her aside. I gave her some money and told her to take me with her into the room ,she hesitated for sometime but when I told her why I was doing it she gave in and asked me to get under the tray cloth of the hotel serving trays and she pushed me into the room.

"Thank you, you can go now" said a male voice which sounded like my boyfriend's voice. The girl walked out of the room and I held my breath because I did not want to get discovered before I got what I wanted. They opened the bottle of their wine cheerfully and toasted to their unborn baby. You heard me right they toasted to that. Tears rolled down my chicks and I asked myself if l was really in the right room? I heard kissing sounds and next I saw shadows of clothes being thrown on the floor and that was it I could no longer wait until the worst happened so I came out of my hiding place and when they saw me they froze. My friend was already nude laying on the bed and my boyfriend was half naked.

"Hey guys" I mumbled.

"Alexis ,what are you doing here?"that's what my friend could say while trying to cover her nude body. I turned and walked out with tears in my eyes ,how could anyone be so heartless to cheat on me with my bestie. I took a taxi to where I had left my car and went home after that. All night the image of my boyfriend and my friend kept popping in my thoughts that it kept we crying until I eventually fell asleep. That day I made an oath to myself that I was never gonna date a guy ever again. I started hanging out with lesbians and l even dated them twice but currently I was single and searching because the girl I had been seeing had gone abroad so we ended things since she said she did not want the long distance thing.

I was gonna start working tomorrow at one of my dad's companies as a supervisor. I selected a beautiful navy blue suit before going to bed. I knew tomorrow was gonna be my new start.

I woke up early took a shower and made myself breakfast before I went to work. I drove drove to work ,I got there before any of the stuff were there and I start showing myself around the building.

After moving around for a bit a couple drove in ,we'll that's what I thought but I later came to know that they weren't a couple but I did not believe it since the girl seemed kind of hurt when the guy said so. I also came to know that it was the girls first day at work as well. By the way the girl was really beautiful and definitely someone I could go for. Russell who happened to be the guy who had just arrived showed me and Casey around and explained a few things that we were supposed to know. And it was was not long until the company got fully occupied with workers so I went to my office and got to work. I was in my office all morning looking at all the company stuff that I needed to know. Around midday I decided to go and get myself lunch and just when I walked out of my office I bumped into Casey and we went to lunch together. There was a restaurant close to our company so went there and order our lunch. After lunch we went back to work and to be honest I really liked the personality of this girl. The rest of the day we kept bumping into each other.

Casey

After taking Russell's offer I went to work the next day. All was well I even meet the daughter of the company owner and we chatted for a really long time during lunch. For the whole day I was really busy and I did not see Russell much because he worked in the third floor and I worked on the ground floor. It felt really good to have a decent job but atleast the same time it was a lot of pressure especially the people l was sharing the apartment with, I knew they were gonna be pissed so I was gonna move out before they start making it an issue. I used the money I had saved up from my previous hustle to move into a bachelor apartment close to my new work place since I did not have a car, I knew I would jut walk to work.

The month moved really fast and I was enjoying working with new people, and my relationship with Russel was getting stronger each day and I was grateful. I even had a friend Alexis. She was a free spirited girl and we grew really close quicker than I thought.

I was busy getting ready for work when my phone rang.

Caller: Hie girl, I'm coming to pick you up real soon ,I hope you are done.

Me: I'm all set bestie .I hang up my phone

That was Alexis asking if I was done and I lied she always does that . She tells me she is almost here and then takes an hour to arrive. I know you are wondering how we got so close to that extent in a short span of time. We'll if you ask me I also don't know how it happened but I'm glad it did. I finished getting ready and as always she arrived after an hour at my place.

"Did your car get a puncture on your way here as last time?" I asked her teasingly when I got into the passenger's seat.

"Yes it did and I had to call the cops because I could not find my mechanic's number" she answered as we all erupted into laughter.

We played music all the way to work and if we had passed you this day you would have said we were a bunch of drunkards because the music was loud that we could bearly hear our own voice when we were singing along. We got to work and as usual it was great apart from one thing Russell was in a strange mood . I went to his office as usual after work to tell him I was now going home but he gave me a weird response and even gave me a cold shoulder which was very unusual so I just left and went home with Alexis.

"Cassey ever since you came back from Russell's office you seem down. Is everything OK?" Alexis asked me when she noticed my pale face.

"I'm okay love,it just how Russell behaved when I went to his office but don't worry" I answered back and she gave me a confused look.

"Okay ,if you say so. I was actually hoping if you wanted to sleep over at my place since we both gonna be home for the next two days" she said as she made puppy eyes and I could not say no so I agreed.

We drove to my place so I could grab a few items for myself and we drove to her place. I texted my boyfriend that I was not gonna be home and he just said okay which gave me so much questions in my mind. I kept asking myself if I had did something to upset him. All the drive to Alexis place I was absent minded. When we got there I vowed to myself I that I was not gonna let a guy snatch away my happiness so I cheered up a bit and try as hard as I could to enjoy my girl to girl time with my friend.

Alexis was really smart ,her apartment looked really tidy and it smelled so good. We ordered pizza and had more than enough alcohol. We danced to the music and when we got tired we sat down to watch a movie. We sat on a couch together and my eyes were glued to the movie most of the time that I did not pay much attention to my friend but just as I was lost in the movie I felt someone's eyes on me and there was only Alexis and me in the room. I slowly turned my face to look at Alexis while still trying to watch the movie.

When I turned my face my eyes made eye conduct with her as I caught her staring at me. She stared deep into my eyes and I could not help but notice how beautiful her eyes were. I moved my face closer to her and she moved her face towards me. We sat there face to face. At that moment I felt myself wrapping my arms around her neck and drew closer. I closed my eyes and slowly moved to Alexis ,I could smell her perfume and alcohol. Our lips touched each other. This was my first time kissing a girl. Her lips were so soft, it made me want to take a bit. I did what I thought and lightly bit on Alexis lips. Cherry taste. Not bad. Suddenly she wrapped her arms around my waist pulling me closer,it was no longer a gentle touch of lips but turned into a passionate kiss. My heart beat like a drum ,my mind went blank and my arms around her neck unconsciously tighten. The two of us were lost in our own world and my phone started ringing. We kept on kissing and when it did not stop Alexis pushed me back. As soon as I opened my eyes I saw her confused expression.

"We....we..."she stammered .

"I'm sorry" I said with my face turning all red like a tomato. I was so embarrassed that I grabbed my purse ran out of her apartment and took a taxi to my apartment.

That night I tossed and turned, unable to sleep. Everytime I closed my eyes,I remembered the kiss from earlier.I knocked my blaming myself. What was I thinking? This was unlike me at all. I shook my head to dispel the thought and find a reason to blame. Alcohol, yes,it must have been alcohol because I was no longer sober ,so l clung to her. Reassured with the excuse I had just came up with, l lay down and closed my eyes. This time, what came into my mind was Alexis's lips. I threw off the blanket and jumped up touching my lips and wondering if I was not really sober then. I admitted the kiss was great. I liked the feeling of kissing her I admitted to myself but I'm not a lesbian or could it be that I was bisexual. No no no there was no way i could be bisexual I liked boys not girls l assured myself.

I was busy trying to distract myself from all the thought when my door bell rang. Who could it be this late ? Could it be Russell. Just then I remembered him calling me when I was at Alexis House. My phone, oooo dammit I had left my phone at Alexis apartment. I felt so stupid as I walked over to get my door. I opened up as I stood there like a zombie unable to move or invite my get inside. Alexis pushed me aside and closed the door behind her and came closer to where I was standing. She touched my cheeks a grew me closer into another unexpected kiss ,it lasted for about ten good minutes before she broke it and spoke up.

"Are you gonna stand here for the whole night or are you gonna come inside " she asked as she went inside and sat down in the lounge. I followed behind her and sat down not able to gather enough courage to speak up." Come on Casey stop acting like you did not like the kiss, what's with you and that confused face?"She asked and I still could not find the right words to say " by the way you left your phone ringing when you ran out. I tried to run after you but you were fast so I brought it's it" she continued.

"Thanks" that's all I could say as she handed me my phone . There were about six missed calls from Russell. I tried to call him back a couple of times but I could not reach him so I gave up. Alexis assured me that whatever happened had happened because of alcohol and that eased my mind. After chatting for a while we fell asleep on the couch.
