The One Who Aways Will Be

                                                                  Carla's POV            It was another hard day at work. My lab is my sanctuary. I love science and finding the secrets of the world. Today was different I knew I have somewhere to be, but I couldn't seem to pull myself away finding out what that cell was. I parked my blue KIA in the parking garage. I ahead up to my apartment on the sixth floor. I sigh as I turn the key in the lock of my apartment. After entering my home, I set my bag down on the table.          I'm in need of a shower. In the bathroom, after I undress I stand there staring at myself in the mirror. I'm an average height and weight for a  woman of age of thirty, yet I still don't have what I want most in the world. I know people would say that I still have time for the whole family thing, but I can't help it. I always wanted a loving husband and children. When I think about it I picture it in the country with a big yarn. The children running around laughing. I sigh as I turn the key in the lock of my apartment. I would get that one day, however I lived in the city. I do miss the trees most in the fall. My work can be done anywhere. I just got a great offer here.  The lab setup is pretty amazing. The only thing unique is my hair. My wild crazy red and curly hair. Even my eyes are an average brown.  As I turn the water on my phone rang. It's my best friend Molly.      "Please tell me you are getting out of the shower." Molly said.      " Sorry to say, but no." I said.       " I told you we are going out tonight months ago. Why are you not getting ready yet." Molly yelled.      " There were some tests that needed to be done before I left for the weekend." I said.       "Get that sorry ass excuse in the shower and be ready. I am almost there. Bye love you" Molly said.       She didn't even wait for me to respond because she know what I would have said. I sigh stepping in the nice hot water. Normally I spend a good while here. I know she will drag my ass out of here with no problem what so ever.      Plus I don't want to get arrested for public indecency twice in one lifetime. No we ARE NOT going to get into that one. It needs to stay in that closed and locked box NEVER to be seen again.     In my closet I look around not know what I should wear. I have never been very good at this. I had some awkward childhood times. I find the one outfit that make me feel sexy and brave. Which I will need tonight. The red and black Gothic lace halter top dress with red stocking that make it look like a cat scratched the side up in an even manner.     Molly walk in just in time for me to put on the Jeffrey Campbell  red Platform boots plaid. Yes, I know, I said I'm not very fashionable, but I do know about these shoes.      "Darn Girl I thought I would have to drag you out of here kicking and screaming BLOODY Murder, but I was wrong and you look f*****g FINE. " Molly said.      "Thanks I did promise you one amazing birthday and dancing all night until we drop. More likely me first than you, but we will see."I said. I put my partial wet hair up in a side pin up. "Molly I know you want to get going, but help me with my makeup, then we can leave." I gave her puppy eyes.     "Fine if it will get us out of here faster" she said sighing.  "Now let's go before I change my mind." I said rolling my eyes at her.     We get to Club Le Vela, but unlike most night's that Molly brings me here, we don't have to wait in the long ASS line. Good because I say long I mean so f*****g long the end must have to turn the corner about a block or two a couple of times.      "Molly how did you get them to let us in without waiting in that f*****g long ass line." I said laughing.      "Oh Honey Dear I have my feminine ways, but with the way you look I don't think you  would have had a problem getting in here." Molly said with a wink.     "OK I will just have to believe you on that one." I said scarcity.       "Let's get out there on the dance floor and shake our asses off. Plus we might be able to get you or me  or both of us laid tonight." Molly said.     "I think we need to start with some drinks" I said.         We make our way to the first level bars here in the club.  We wait next to the bar waiting for the bartender to help them. We look around the club, there is  a pretty fair amount of people here tonight. The music is good here, that I feeling like tonight might really be fun.      "Hey look over there at those guys, they are cute." Molly whispered.      "Can't I get a chance to get at least one of those drinks in me before you start shoving guys down my throat too." I whined.       "OK fine, then we will revisit it later."     A few hours later we are drunk and dancing like there is no tomorrow.      This was the most fun I had in a while. I guess since college. I was a very fun and exciting woman. Where did that woman go? Molly and me have been friends since the summer before college. She got me out my shell. That was the best summer I had of all my childhood. However, that did not mean I had a bad childhood. Just that summer time was mostly family time. I must stir away from the past and remain in the present.      Molly was dancing with a very hot guy. " Hey Birthday Girl, do you want another drink?" I asked. She nodded her head though she could just be head bagging, but I took it as a hell yes. I made my way over to the bar, next to a guy in a fine looking shirt, DAME FINE, skin tight. I signaled the bar tender. " Two s*x on the beaches" I told him.     "Oh that's a fun time there" the FINE green eyed guy winked at me.      " That depends on how and where" I said laughing a little. I can't believe I'm flirting with this guy. Maybe Molly was right, maybe I needed some s****l pleasure. He might be a good start to helping with that.
