    “What kind of man would I be if I didn’t walk the lady to her door?” he asked.
    The typical kind?
    “T hey won’t let you into the garage without a parking pass,” I said.
    “Don’t worry. I ’ve got it.”
    We pulled up to the guard shack outside the garage , and Jared told the attendant that he was dropping me off and he would only be a few minutes. I was shaking my head because I knew they wouldn’t let him in regardless of how long he was staying. But, to my utter amazement, the attendant opened the gate and let him through.
    “See. I told you I got it.”
    I raised a brow. He seems to get his way an awful lot.
     
    We took the elevator to my floor, and I pulled my key out of my pocket in anticipation of opening the door.
    “Thanks, Jared. I had a good time tonight. A lot better than I thought I would have.”
    “You are quite welcome, Avery.”
    He leaned forward slightly and kissed me. One thing I noticed is that he is about two inches taller than me. At least in three inch heels. The kiss deepened and before I knew it , I was pressed against my door while still pulling him closer. He was slowly grind himself against me and I moaned. He moved from my mouth to my neck. Then he pulled back enough to take the key from my hand.
    “How about we move this inside your apartment before the neighbors call the cops,” he said as he unlocked my door.
    Oh my Gods! What was I doing? I was acting like a total slut. He probably thought I was just like Saundra. I reached out and put my hand on his as he started to open the door.
    “Jared, I’m sorry. I can’t do this. I really did have a good time , but I don’t sleep with guys I just met.”
    Wow! I actually sounded rational. Maybe I’m sobering up.
    He smiled at me.
    “ It’s okay, Avery. I had a good time too. I’ll tell you what. Do you have a pen?”
    I nodded then reached inside my apartment to the table by the door and grabbed him a pen. He took the pen and my hand before writing on it. I looked at it after he finished. It had his name and number.
    “Call me, Avery, and we’ll go out on a real date.”
    He kissed me again and when it started to get out of control, he pulled back and left. I watched him walk away. Temmy was right. That is one fine ass mofo. I walked into my apartment, went straight into my room, and proceeded to pass out on the bed.

    I woke up the next morning with my shirt twisted under my arms and my bra twisted around toward my back. I readjusted myself then climbed out of bed and fell right back into it. Damn, my head hurt. Hangovers. Now, I remember why I don’t like to drink. I slowly made my way to the bathroom and turned on the water to heat while I disrobed. I always feel better after a long hot shower.
     
    I took my time washing my hair and scrubbing myself down. I needed it after bumping into so many people last night, not to mention rubbing all over Jared. Oh crap! I forgot about him writing his number on my hand. I looked at it and the only number I could still make out was a two and the only letter was the “J”. Oh well, I wouldn’t have called him anyway.
     
    After my shower, I dressed in some comfy clothes and went in search of pain relievers and coffee then I took up residence on my couch. This was the one day of the week that I tried to do as little as possible. Visiting grandmother is the only thing I usually do on Sunday, and she is supposed to be gone to Tallahassee for a White Witches of the Southeast convention. So my plan for the day is to veg out and not think about a certain singer who kisses like a madman.
     
    I had alternated between catching up on the shows I had recorded and napping on the couch for several hours when Temmy called. I didn’t have a chance to even say hello.
    “Please tell me you slept with him.”
    “Sorry to disappoint.”
    “Oh my Gods, Avery. The man was practically begging you to do him , and you turned him down? I have never been more
