Temptations

Moving Forward Is Hard

Stacy woke up. She looked at her alarm clock. Sighing to herself, she then thought. 'Damn I have been on so many dates. And so far all of them had been horrible, but so what what was she suppose to do. Mark ran back to his wife to be, Stacy couldn't help but to roll her eyes as she thought about it. He was stupid as hell. Running back to her, like a dog that had lost it's owner. " Pathetic" she said to her.

Stacy then got up, she walked towards her bathroom to get ready. She was going on another date tonight, and really didn't have to time to think about Mark. Maybe tonight this guy would be the one. He was tall, brown skin that was smooth as a baby's bottom, dark long silk hair. He looked like he stepped out of a male model calendar. She smiled as she thought about him, his sexy but mystery smile. She wanted to get to know him a little more. And noting turn her on more, then a man who was full of surprises.

Dave was at his computer. He reached his head up and looked around, he didn't see Stacy. He then sighed and whispered to himself "Bitch.... Were are you." to his surprise Mark was standing there looking right into his face. Dave quickly snapped out of his trance. "Can I help you boy?" Mark rolled his eye's "You know what I want." Dave's eyes lit up like a candle "Boy I thought that you would never ask." as he moved to stand. Mark took a step back "Um no honey. That is not what I wanted." Dave then looked at him disappointed. And proceeded to sit back down. "Well then. What do you want?" Mark raised his eyebrows. Dave gave him the same look. "Look I'm gonna need for you to use your words." Mark rolled his eye's "Stacy.... How is Stacy doing?" Dave smirked "And why do you want to know?" Mark looked away for a minute and then back to Dave "Because." was all he could say. "Nope now you know. You are gonna have to try better then that." but before Mark could say anything. Dae continues "But then again. Why do you want to know anyways, are you not gonna go ahead and marry your wife. Plus you walked out on her, now you want to play 'I'm concerned game' I don't think so. Not with my best friend, you walked out and lost your chance player. And if you want her back, you are gonna have to do better. " Dave then sat down and started to work. Mark walked away. He was stunned Dave put him in his place.

Stacy walked in at the last little bit of conversation. Dave and Mark were having, she walked over towards Dave's desk."What was that all about?" Dave looked up at her and smiled "It is about time, and that was noting. He just wanted to know how you were doing. But I got in his ass about it." Stacy smiled, she then reached her arms out and pulled Dave into a hug "That's my best friend." he gave into the hug "You know I'm gonna always have your back." Stacy then kissed him on the cheek "Sorry I was late. Had to plan out what I'm wearing tonight." Dave rolled his eye's at her "Do you ever give yourself time to heal?" she chuckled at him "Nope. Plus why don't we make it a double date tonight. You come with me, cause you have to see this one I got." Dave then smiled as wide, as his mouth could go "Tell me about him?" Stacy shook her head "Nope. You are coming out with me." he laughed "Okay.... Okay girl."

Later on that evening Stacy was all ready to go. She drove to pick up Dave from his house, as she pulled up she parked in front of his place. She smiled as she seen him standing there with his date, she rolled down and the window. "Come on and get your ass in this car." she said with a smile. Dave got into the from and his date in the back. They all sat back and enjoyed the ride towards the restaurant, Dave looked over at Stacy and seem her smiling. He couldn't help but smile as well,he was happy that his friend was smiling, and being happy again. They pulled up to the restaurant, Stacy parked the car. They all stepped out, Stacy locked the door. And they all headed towards the front door. Once inside Stacy looked around and, she spotted what she thought was her date. She then started to walk in that direction. Dave and his date followed her.

"Hello. Are you my date for tonight?" she said as she stood there in front of the tall dark, dark and handsome man. He looked up at her. He then reached out  his hand towards her, she took his hand and shook it. "Please to meet you." he said. She smiled. Stacy then turned towards Dave. "This is my friend. Dave." Dave looked at him he didn't want to shake his hand. So he just smiled politely. "Very nice to meet the man making my friend smile again." Dave and his date then sat down. The waiter walked over and handed them menu's. They all took a couple seconds and ordered they're food. They all shared laughs, they were drinking and eating, overall having a good time. On the drive home. Stacy had dropped off Dave's date, it was just the two of them, as Stacy took him home. "So what did you think of Angelo?" she asked Dave. Dave looked at her "My honest opinion. I really don't like him." "What? what do you mean?" Dave sighed "I don't know, but there is something off about him." Stacy looked at him with a smirk "Off about him. What do you mean off?" Dave just looked at her and strugged it off "I want to know what you mean, you are my friend you should be helping me with these things." He took a second and then smiled "Girl I'm just saying, just be careful I don't want you to get hurt anymore." Stacy smiled and reached out and hugged him "Well thank you, that really means a lot to me." after they parted in they're hug. Dave got out of the car and went into his apartment, Stacy watched him walk inside, and after she drove home. She had had the biggest smile on her face, she couldn't wait to get to know Angelo a little better. This could be a new start for her, a better one and she was ready for all of that.
