After her last relationship ended badly, Alana was ready to give up on love and focus solely on her job. She thought she could until she met her brothers friend, Elijah Blake. Will Alana avoid the attraction she has with Elijah or start a new beginn...
"I told Elijah to come pick you up and take you to brunch if that's fine with you."
"Yeah, it's fine"
"Alright, I would hug you again but you kinda stink."
"Shut up and leave so that I can get ready."
"Fine, I'll see you in a bit."
After my brother left I turned on my Beats Pill so that I could listen to some music while I was getting ready. I got my phone and pressed shuffle on my favorites playlist. I danced and sang to the music as I got ready, enjoying the freeness I felt. I was about to start on my makeup when the buzzer went off. I checked to see who it was.
"Alana Knight."
"Hey Alana it's me Elijah."
"Okay, I'll buzz you right up."
Completely forgetting that I had on only my bra, underwear, robe, messy hair, and no make up on I opened the door.

"Hey."
"Sorry I'm early."
"No it's fine, I'm almost finished getting ready. If you want something to drink the kitchen is that way and the bathroom is the first door on the right. And your free to watch whatever's on tv." He nodded and opted to watch tv in my living room.
Just as I was about to start on my makeup I heard my front door open and close then a loud "Who the hell are you?"
I walked in my living room to see my ex-boyfriend having a stare down with my brothers friend.

"It didn't take you long to move on." Marcus said with a scoff, looking Elijah up and down trying to size him up.
"Marcus why are you here?" I asked ignoring his ignorant statement.
"I came by to get the rest of my things, get the keys to my place back and give you the key that you gave me back."
"You know where your stuff is and I'll get you your key."
