"Cassie, this dress is out dated" Stacy said staring at herself in the mirror " you are crazy that dress looks sexy on you girlfriend " Cassie replied, walking up to her and taking her hand " you look beautiful " she said and Stacy couldn't help but blush.

" come on, let's not start this emotional trauma, we are late " she said picking up her bag. " let's go" Cassie replied as they left the apartment.

*******************

" where the hell are you guys" Bryan said over the phone " we are on our way " Stacy replied " well you guys better hurry" he said hanging up.

And just when he was about entering the club, a cab pulled over in front of him. " so you weren't lying when you said you where on your way " he said as he took Stacy's hand and placed a light kiss on it.

" Have I ever lied to you" she said giving him a bright smile. " am still here" Cassie said clearing her throat. " how could I ever forget this beauty" he said and they all laughed.

They entered the club and partied all through the night.Cassie was too drunk to realise where she was and who she was with, while Stacy just sat down with Bryan.

" so you think Cassie is drunk " she asked Bryan as she doesn't drink and had never been drunk. " I think it's time to go home" he said and stood up " aren't you coming? " he asked as she showed no expressions to leave

" I want to stay a little bit longer, so do me a favour and take Cassie home" she said and he simply nodded and kissed her forehead.

Bryan was like her elder brother and she knew he loved and cherished her alot and so did she, Cassie on the other hand was her best friend and sister.

Since Stacy was the only child of her parents, Cassie and Bryan made her feel like she belonged.She recently found out her boyfriend had been cheating on her with her nemesis Dorathy.

Cassie had been making her go out and party till she forgets her pain, but she always ends up getting drunk.

Stacy had enough of partying and decided to go home, but when she tried getting up she fell back down to her sit, and after a few more tries she felt... drunk. 'But she didn't drink alcohol ' she thought to herself.

This wasn't good, anybody who notice she was drunk, could easily take advantage of her. She managed to walk out of the club, but when she tried stopping a cab, everything blanked out.

*********************

After Cassie and Bryan arrived home, Cassie began behaving high, " Bryan, am I not sexy and beautiful like Stacy " she asked him out of the blue " Cassie you are, but right now you have to rest, you're drunk " he said trying to make her lay down.

But she wouldn't agree, she tried pulling him to kiss her but he held onto her hand " Cassie you'll regret this tomorrow morning " he said trying to stop her from removing her clothes. " Bryan can't you see, I love you " she said and kissed him.

Bryan was trying to process everything she just said, but she is drunk, I can't believe what she says, he said to himself.Cassie kissed him till he was out of breath, he let her have her way, but he didn't kiss her back.

She finally fell asleep after trying to seduce Bryan.' Could she really be in love with me ' he questioned himself.

Bryan had always had a crush on Stacy, but couldn't tell her. Now Cassie liking him, was a really bad thing

********************

" ouch! " Stacy mumbled as she woke up in a whole different environment. " where am i" she asked herself " oh no, I was drunk and I blanked out" she said with fright.

And look down at herself, she was still wearing her clothes.She let out a long sigh. But she couldn't figure out where she was. She walked to the door and when she was about opening a woman walked in.

" good morning ma'am " she said slightly bowing " good morning, please where am i? " she asked " my boss brought you home yesterday night you where drunk "she said placing the tray in her hands on the bed."

where is this your boss" she asked " he left for work early, before he said I should give you this " she said bringing out a business card from her pocket. " thanks, I'll be on my way " she said and picked up her bag " aren't you going to have breakfast " she asked " no thanks " Stacy was really comfortable in a strangers house, so she would just call the number on the card and thank them when she gets home.

Getting home, Stacy saw her door was locked from the inside, that means Cassie didn't go to work. " Cassie, Cassie " she said banging on the door.

When the door opened she saw a shirtless Bryan. " Bryan?, What are you doing here, shirtless " she asked " it's not what you think, Cassie fell asleep and I was too tired to drive home, anyway, where are you coming from? " he said " I kinda passed out after you left,and woke up this morning in a strangers house" she said in sarcasm.

" a strangers what! " he yelled. Bryan was the only guy who knew the in and out of Stacy.He knew all her secret, and knowing she was still a ******, he was shocked she could be so irresponsible.

" please tell me the stranger wasn't a male" he asked praying to hear the opposite. " it wasn't a male, that what you said I should say, but the truth is it was a male" she said " Stacy, so you know what that means? " he asked, he had always hoped he would be the one to disvirgin her. " calm down big bro, the guy didn't lay a finger on me.

His maid helped me I didn't even see him to thank him" she explained "thank goodness" he exclaimed "Where is Cassie by the way" she asked " she already left, she begged me to help her tidy this place up after the stunt she pulled yesterday " he said " what stunt? " she asked

" she tried to rape me, literally, she begged me to ha e sex with her" he said and laughed " why didn't you " she asked " are you joking, I can't sleep with a drunk woman" he said She smiled knowing that she had a good friend " I'm going to shower, I have an interview by 10, so when you're done you can leave, maybe we can have lunch" she said as she entered the bathroom.

" I would love that " he mumbled to himself and lay back on the bed.

*********************

Cassie was arranging files on her desk when she received a call, " hello" she said placing the phone inbetween her ear and shoulder. " hi, is this Cassie Ruiz" the caller asked " yes, yes this is her, is their any trouble " she asked " no ma'am, my name is Eric Maxwell, from Max corporation " he said " hi Mr Maxwell, to what do I owe this call" she knew very well how he got her number.Her parents had been setting her up with different guys, her younger sister was already engaged and this worried her parents.

She knew she was old enough for marriage, but her parents wouldn't let her find a man. " am sorry Mr. Maxwell, if my parents set you up to this it won't work, not today not ever, good day" she said and hung up. She had work to do which was very well the most important thing in her life.

*******************

" good morning ma'am " Stacy greeted the woman sitted at the front desk " good morning " the woman replied " your name please? " she asked " Stacy Victor" she replied. " okay, you're after the person inside, take a sit" the woman said and Stacy obliged.

When it was her turn, filling her heart with encouragement, she boldly walked into the office " good morning " she greeted the person sitting on the king sized chair backing her. " sit" the voice rang like a bell in her head, she realised it was a man.

" Stacy Victor " he called out her name " tell me about yourself " he said in a more calm tone. Are these the question asked during an interview, she thought. " my name is Stacy Victor, am 24 years old.

I am the only daughter and child of Mr. Ken Victor, the sole owner of Barlow Enterprise " she said and the person sitted on the chair immediately turned.She was shocked, the man in front of her looked like a god, he was beyond handsome, he was beautiful. " Your father owns Barlow Enterprise, and you are looking for a job somewhere else, you're worse than a backstabber " he said " excuse you, I already own every share in my father's company and I'll take over when he passes on, for now I want to make my own hard earned money.

" she said in an angry tone " do you know who I am? " he questioned her " you know what, I don't care, keep your lunatic job to yourself " she said as she stood up to leave. "Congratulations Miss Victor, you got the job" he said and that made her stop in her tracks. " I did " she asked " why you so surprised, I need some hard core stubbornness " he said with a smirk " thank you sir" she said with a bright smile.

When she left the office she brought out her phone to call Cassie and Bryan, but the business card she collected fell out, picking it up she said " it's time to thank you, stranger" she smiled as she entered a cab.Not knowing her new boss was watching her from his window, " Stacy Victor, you'll destroy yourself without knowing " he said and smirked.

" hey Bryan, guess what " she said over the phone " what? " he asked in curiosity " I got the job " she said " that's great news " he replied " I know right, let's celebrate, meet me at the restaurant behind the bank, call Cassie too" she said and hung up.

She finally got the job of her dreams, her parents wanted her to read business, so she could run the company. But she always had a thing for design and ReTech Interior Design was the place for her.She walked to the restaurant which was nearby and waited for Bryan and Cassie to arrive.

" ma'am what would you like to order? " asked the waiter " a glass of water would be great" she replied. Stacy really wanted to celebrate but she decided to wait for her friends.When she brought out the business card, and dailing the number. " hello" she said but no replied " hello, this is the lady you saved yesterday night, I owe you, your maid told me you help me" she said " thank you " she added, but still no one replied " is this a wrong time to call you, sir" all she knew was that he was a man, she didn't even know his name. " no, it's not, you're welcome good day" the voice on the other line said and hung up. ' oh! How rude' Stacy thought.

" hey girl" said a voice which brought Stacy back to reality. " Cassie, Bryan you're here, come on have a sit, waiter " she said calling on the waiter and the all ordered and celebrated.
