“Uh because Carmen de la Pica Morales is not into the whole one night stand nor is she into a one fuck time.” She paused almost as if the next words she’ll utter was the hardest ones she’d ever give. “She’s one of those people who wants a—“

“What Shane?” I asked disgruntled at how weird the messy haired girl is acting. What the hell is wrong with her tonight?

“—a relationship.” Came out as a strangled whisper and it’s a miracle that I even heard her at all amidst all the commotion caused by the heated population occupying the club.

Realization dawned on me as I, for the second time that night looked at Shane with my mouth hanging open shell shocked and beyond surprise. “You already did her, didn’t you?” I accused “The sex must have pretty amazing for her to get under your skin for such a short period of time” I smirked, not noticing her sad expression. “God, Shane, she’s been here for like what? 2 or 3 days ago? And you already had your wicked way with her? Fuck, you give a new meaning to ‘work fast pleasure will sure to come’. Damn ‘cuz—“

“Don’t” She interrupted me in a harsh and clipped tone of voice. Her tone alone and not the word she uttered forced me to stopped and finally take a long look at her. “Don’t speak of her like that Ash. You don’t have to speak of her as just a common fuck.”

Flabbergasted. There’s no other word to describe how I’m feeling right now. I’m way too stunned to even utter even something.

“She’s not just another lay.”

“Fucking God!.” Aah there it was, my coherency had finally return. “Fuck.” Ok, so I can’t really get past my initial shock on her latest statement. But fuck me. This wasn’t supposed to happen. Feeling protective for someone you just met for 3 days is not on Shane’s ten year plan. I could have sworn she and I would have never settled down. Forever young. Forever having fun. But I assume, that was quickly thrown out the window as soon as the Latina spread more than her fucking legs for Shane. I stared at her looking as lost as I am confused at the new turn of events. “Shane, Shane look at me.” I leaned a bit towards her and guided her face across mine. “This… whatever it is you think your feeling, got to stop. It’s not worth it. It’s not worth the pain. Can you seriously think that your heart can handle another Cherrie Jaffe?”
