It was moments like this when I wished I had told Jordan everything that happened between Lance and me, but I just couldn’t. The only thing that she knew was that we had kissed once, and I let her think that. I never told anyone about what happened. The embarrassment of being played by the ultimate player won over any thought of wanting to tell my friend. I didn’t feel like dealing with the “I told you so,” which would have clearly happened. I heavily sipped as I allowed the wine to give me a pep talk throughout the rest of the evening. Lance Walton would not ruin my life. I would further garner the attention of one Joshua Black. I would make it my personal mission to ensure that. I went through my closet and picked out a slightly more revealing outfit that I might not have normally worn to work. This was due to two reasons: Joshua Black actually came to my office and spoke to me. Sure, it was because of a work related issue, but who was to say another one wouldn’t arise?
