"Oh I bet. I also bet she'd be much better off with you, Tabitha doesn't need the stress right now and Jolene needs some intense meditation hours, swear to God." Bitch. Hateful, ugly bitch. It was amazing how much one could hate a person they barely knew on behalf of one's best friend. This time it was warranted, though. Jolene was just unpleasant.
She was still glancing at the wall when Simon replied. "Uh-huh. Don't worry. It's fine." She bit her bottom lip. This was hard. "Well we got to watching a movie but it was Pineapple Express and it kept reminding us of you so we couldn't finish it." A beat, and a huge sip of her beer. "And then we got to talking and um...well apparently he's in love with me." Lux gave a nervous little laugh, throwing her arms in the air. "Yeah so, that happened. And then I kissed him, he kissed me, one thing lead to another, you know it usually does and um..." Lux scratched her head, still refusing to look at Simon. "We sort of ended up having sex." There was no 'sort of' about it, they had, but for some reason the margin of doubt in the sentence sounded better.
