Kadira had to admit. She half expected John to refuse to get up
and come to the dance floor with them. She was pleasantly
surprised when he got up and really let loose! It was a side of
him she hadn't expected existed, and she liked that! People were
always full of surprises! Hours passed without her realizing it,
and the bar was preparing to close. She had already gotten
John's number earlier,but Tranquila was a different story.
Also... "Tranquila. Do you have a car?" She asked as the music
stopped. "How are you getting home? She was prepared to give the
woman a ride to wherever she was staying. It was the least she
could do for her new friend.

'His scent. I could enjoy that everyday for the rest of my
life....' Her arm draped across his waist tensed slightly as she
pulled herself closer to enjoy the feeling of having him in her
arms for the moment. Whatever made its way into Andro's body
last night seemed to be just the thing that they needed.
The memory of his his hands exploring her body made her
womanhood tremble with excitement. Although, she still had the
fear of this ruining their friendship, since, she did wait until
he was drunk to make a move on him. Everything in her body hoped
that she had not ruined all the years that the two of them
invested in their friendship, their partnership, the thing that
brought and kept the two of them together after all these years.
A kiss to his left shoulder, then the center of his collarbone
and a final one on his lips in an attempt to wake the sleeping
man. "Good morning sleeping head. The sun says hello and the
birds would like for you to join them on this gorgeous morning,"
she placed another kiss on his lips before she reluctantly
pulled herself away from him to begin breakfast for the two of
them and her beloved Akira.

It seemed like just another typical day. The sun was shining as
only it does. The heat was beeming through the crack in her
curtain whispering to her to rise out of bed. It always seems so
hard to get out of bed on a Monday. Nevertheless, she was
running late for class. Professor Schmitz will never let her
live it down if shewas late. He is always saying "Lynx, dont you
have an alarm? If I am here, you need to be here." Thanks 'Dad'.
She scurried out of bed and approached the tiny mirror above
her dresser. Today was going to take longer to get ready for.
The presentation at the end of class would be brutal and she
knew it. She was prepared though. Heck, she had prepared for
this all semester. This course would make of break her senior
year. She had been with Andro throughout the last three years
and was ready to graduate with degree in hand. The words her
mother stated to her as she drunk a sip of her sweet Merlot
resonated with her in this moment. "Lynx, dont you wann be
better than me" (hiccup). Her mother was right. Lynx wanted to
make zomething of her life. The drive to school was never fun.
You could tell it had just rained that morning. The way the dew
just barely kissed the grass. The dreaded five minute light on
13th and Mercury was to much handle at an hour like this. Road
rage began to set in as Lynx looked at the clock on her
dashboard. She had to be patient. She contemplated running the
red light.the risk was not as good as the taste of life she
held. As zhe approached the student parking lot zhe spotted
Andro through bushes that seemed to enclose the campus. "Honk".
Andro immediately turned around. You would've thought she saw a
ghost. Lynx parked her car, paid the meter, and approached
Andro. "My friend, I have missed you this weekend", Lynx stated
as she embraced Andro. Andro's face read a different feeling but
what she said next would shock Lynx to the core.

Monday...
Andres wasn't ready for this... After a hasty retreat Friday
morning, he called out from the office and flew home to nurse a
killer hangover. He and Andro hadn't spoken since then, and he
wasn't sure what to do. After being in love with this girl
almost half his life, he gets drunk and screws her?! He
couldn't even remember it! Water ran over mocha colored skin
like raindrops in the forest as he cursed himself for the
millionth time and lathered his cloth and tried to figure out
how he would ever look her in the eye again! Even being in the
shower made him feel dirty. He washed quickly and got out to
dry.
Suit. Tie. Socks. Shoes. Fuck breakfast. He grabbed a nutri bar
on the way out the door, but never got around to opening it. He
didn't feel the drive home. His mind was in other places the
entire time. He blinked twice, and he was at the office.
Something else to stress over. He was in no mood to put up with
people. But bills had to get paid. He had barely gotten in the
door when Patrick made his approach.he didn't remember his first
name, but with a last name like Patrick, who needed to? He was
one of those trust fund white boys. You know the type. Frat boy.
Everything handed to him. Ultimate sense of self-entitlement.
Andres could feel his eyes rolling before they even made
contact.
"Where were you Friday, ese?" There was that cheesy grin.
"Not today, Patrick." Andres walked by without eve. Stopping to
acknowledge him. Patrick was not pleased with this.
"Oh, got some bass in your voice today! Did the baby finally get
his dick wet?" He laughed as he mused over how hilarious he was!
" That why you took Friday off? Had to wait until your legs were
working."
Deep breaths. Count to ten....
"Has there been any change in the Simmons case since Thursday?"
Damn fool had no idea how close to home he had hit! It took
everything in Andres not to knock him on his ass! If this was
how the whole day would be, it couldn't end soon enough...

"Let's get this over with." She mumbled to herself as her eyes
scanned the parking lot for anyone except for Lynx that would've
tried to stop her to talk. She was not in the mood for people,
schoolwork, work, or even being alone. She just knew that things
went too fast and too far with her best friend and things
couldn't be any worse.
The sound of Lynx's horn scared her half to death but it was a
welcomed sound. Lynx was the best friend that a girl could ask
for. Even though they did not meet until freshman year, it
seemed as if the two knew each other for their entire lives.
"I missed you too. Work had me busy for the beginning half but
the worst thing possible happened and I do not know where to
begin." A tear fell onto Lynx's shoulder during the shared
embrace. "Let's get to class before we're late. We can pass
notes in a notebook if we sit far enough towards the back of the
class." Andro attempted a smile, only for it to turn into a half
hearted attempt that hardly kept the tears at bay.

It was a long weekend. Shouldn't that be enough to say? Lynx was
muttering about her weekend and she could sense it was a
welcomed distraction.
"Did I tell you I met someone this weekend?" Lynx could sense
the need to reduce the tension on the walk to Myneque Hall. It
was clear across campus and the shuttle had just pulled off as
Lynx met up with Andro. "He wasn't too interesting though, all
brawns and no brains", Lynx continued. "You know how I like
them; strong but smart as well. I don't know, I would've even
settled for street smarts but he seemed like a 'Rah Rah'
creatine type of guy." Lynx chuckled. Lynx felt the distance.
Where was Andro's mind? "And I let him hit it of course" Lynx
stated something that she knew would get her distraught friends
attention. "Just making sure you were paying attention. I know
your mind is somewhere else." Lynx stated as she looked at her
friends face change to complete embarrassment. "Lets just get to
class.Lets just hope Professor Schmitz let's us out on time.
This walk is too long to miss another shuttle", Lynx said
through shallow breaths. Lynx had a horrible case of asthma.
Lynx and Andro arrived at Myneque Hall just in time. Lynx took a
puff of medicine from her inhaler. The two walked into class
where too empty seats in the back remained unclaimed. This had
to be fate. They settled into their desk. Lynx prepared herself
for the unexpected and Andro started writing down the weekends
start in her notebook. The pen seemed to form the words before
they came out of Andro's mind. The next line seemed impossible
to write but Lynx wanted to truly know what could upset and trip
up her closest friend to become speechless and tearful.

How could she tell her best friend about the weekend that
passed? Would Lynx understand how much she regretted the actions
that she had taken. Though, as her best friend spoke, Lynx’s
words seemed to pass through her ears without the time to
process in her mind. She wanted to talk to Andres. She wanted to
take this weekend back but life doesn’t work that way. How could
she bring herself to focus on the day? Hell, work after class is
how insult is added to injury.
It wasn’t until they sat down in the remaining seats that Andro
realized that she was on autopilot to keep her tears in check on
the walk to class. But without missing a beat, Andro grabbed her
graffitied notebook and began the letter to Lynx.
“My best friend from high school, Andres, he came to hang out
with me at work on Friday and as usual when he comes in, I try
to get him trashed like the old days because I know that he was
a safe place to sleep it off. Hell, our friendship was at the
point of him having a change of clothes at my place. Something
was different about this weekend, something made him accept my
offer to drink and that’s where things went downhill. He had my
‘On Your Ass; drinks and he had to make the wall his best friend
for part of the night for balance. The ride back to my apartment
held the same weirdness as the rest of the night. We didn’t
drone on about our lives and attempt to catch up; it was a
silence that only led into the already present sexual tension
between us. I guess you can imagine the rest from there, but, I
want to make sure that you know this all boils down to being my
fault. I shouldn’t have tried anything while the two of us had
been drinking. I wish i I could take back what I did. I want to
talk to him. So badly, but with the way we parted ways. I feel
like it’s not going to do anything except for make things even
more awkward. I need your help on this one. I don’t want to lose
my best friend but I don’t know how hot tell him how I feel
about what happened between us.” Andro slowly closed the
notebook and wiped the tears away from her eyes. She hadn’t
noticed when they started streaming down her cheeks in silent
protest. Her left hand passed the notebook to the woman beside
her with a hesitation that she had not felt in a while.

There's nothing worse than a Monday... Except THIS Monday. This
Monday was like the Monday from Hell; The Monday to which all
other Mondays aspire! Patrick was riding
Andres' ass all day, and it was taking everything in Andres not
to floor him and lose his job!
Andres was never allowed to work his own cases, only assist with
others. Was this what it meant to be a lawyer? If so, he was
sure he should have pursued a career in Marine Biology like
Andro.... Dammit! Right back in the feels... Why did this have
to happen! What was he supposed to do? Apologize? Thank her?
Admit that he didn't even remember the night? One thing was for
certain; He couldn't pretend it didn't happen...
"This is no time for a nap, ese!" Patrick again... "I thought
you people were supposed to be hard working!"
Just as Andres fist pounded into his desk, a voice called out
his name from across the office. Patrick's saving grace. Andres
turned to see that it was Cedric, one guy in the office that
wasn't too bad. "Can you come take a look at this for me?" The
only other black man in the office asked. With a huff, Andres
got up and approached the man, wondering what busy work he had
for him.
When he arrived, he was greeted with empathetic eyes. "I'm sorry
man." Cedric said with a hushed voice. "That wasn't cool."
"I'm not even Mexican." Andres said, shaking his head. Andres
had a complex lineage, but could most easily be described as
Black and Puerto Rican. He sighed and took a look at his
savior's computer as if investigating something throroughly.
"I know everyone gives you a hard time because you're the
newbie." Cedric said. "But it'll get better man. You just gotta
stick it through, and try not to kill anyone." He said with a
laugh.
"Thanks. I'll do my best..." Andres said. But it still wasn't
even lunchtime yet...

Monae gathered her books, haphazardly throwing them into her bag
before waiting for the herd to push it's way out of the doors.
She wasn't in the mood for fake conversation with her
classmates, she just wanted today to be over with.
'At least the first part of my day is over with. Maybe, just
maybe, things can turn around and get me out of my funk at work.
Well.....that's if anybody show's up tonight. Gotta love
Mondays..... She sighed deeply then stood and followed the last
few stragglers out of the room, but instead of following the
rest of the pack back to the dorms, she headed toward her
apartment to change and head into more time for her her to
wander with her thoughts.
Roughly 20 minutes later, Monae opened her front door, and in
response, her fat cat ran toward her feet. "Hi my baby. Did you
miss me? You know, you're the only man that hasn't lied to me.
Why can't more men be like you?" She scooped up the ball of
fluff as he meowed first in protest only to purr once he got
comfortable. A night off is what she needed but she knew that
she couldn't afford it.
Monae took a moment to pet Akiva before she stood to get ready
for work. 'Already 15 minutes behind. Gotta get moving because I
don't feel like being late. 10 minutes and a quick shower later,
Monae was walked out of her front door to continue her day.....

By the grace of God, Andres made it through the day by aiding
Cedric with his case. Patrick made no attempts to bother him
while he had that security blanket, but Andres knew he couldn't
cling to that forever. He would have to solve his own problems.
But for now, he just didn't know how to do that...
Usually, a feeling of relief came with getting home from work.
This time, that feeling was replaced with a sense of emptiness.
The Monday that keeps on giving. After an hour of sitting in
front of the TV, trying to get his mind right, he pulled out
his phone. He needed to face Andro....
Fingers flew across the screen to type out the message.
"We need to tal-"
Delete.
Those words never meant anything good. Let's try again
"Can we meet up for Coffee-"
Delete.
They had both seen Luke Cage. Coffee didn't have the same
meaning anymore.
Three more attempts and he just gave up. He had no other choice.
He grabbed his keys, and went out to the car...
