But lately, she yearned for more.
She wanted to become a woman men noticed.
A woman men desired.
"I can't ever see myself sharing a man," Sofie huffed.
The rumble of London's laughter echoed through the air before his door clicked shut, filling the room with silence.
London had moved his little party inside.
"They can have him," Sofie declared, pushing away from the door. Alana followed her back to the couch where their Scrabble game sat unfinished.
Saturday nights for them consisted of wine and board games.
The perfect dateless night with the bestie.
"Yeah, I don't think I could share, either. Half the time, I don't even like sharing my ice cream with you," Alana retorted.
"Bitch." Sofie swung a pillow at Alana. Dodging it, she grinned, causing them both to fall into a fit of laughter.
"Hey, I'm just being honest."
Sighing, Sofie gripped the pillow to her chest. "I wouldn't want him as my man. Given the chance, would you spend one night with him? No strings attached? No one would ever have to know." Her perfectly arched eyebrow rose with her question.
Alana stared down at her glass, trailing a finger along the edge.
Would she?
One night to experience what London Keith had to offer?
She met Sofie's gaze. "Nope. His stick might be potent, but he ain't gonna have me strung out in these streets."
"I know that's right!" Easing off the couch, she headed toward the kitchen. "We need more wine."
Sofie had read her mind.
Leaning forward to rearrange her game pieces, Alana called out, "Hurry up so I can kick your butt!"
"Oh, no! I refuse to lose." Reappearing with the bottle they had started, she refilled their glasses, set the empty bottle on the table, and took a seat. "For six bucks, this wine is good."
"Don't knock the cheap stuff. It tastes good, but will get you drunk fast," Alana joked. She was already feeling a warmth creep through her body, only she didn't know if it was from the wine or seeing London.
"So, where were we?"
"You were about to get your ass handed to you," Alana muttered, spelling out a new word.
Pushing the carnal thoughts of Mr. Hotness from her mind, she focused on the game before them.
There would be plenty of time to daydream about him.
Now, it was time to kick Sofie's ass.
Alana exited her bedroom, fresh from a shower. Sofie was long gone, having tucked tail and ran home.
Of course, Alana had won, again. As always.
Lately, Sofie had been encouraging Alana to work out with her. She'd gained about fifteen pounds in the last year and needed to shed it. Not that she wanted to get rid of all her curves, but she needed to get more active and healthier.
