"Because he'll break my heart when he leaves me."

Steph sighed in what sounded like exasperation. "First of all, you don't know that he's going to leave you. What if he falls in love with you, too?"

"Come on Steph, this is Jack we're talking about here. We're so different." Alexis threw her arms in the air for emphasis.

"Haven't you ever heard the phraseopposites attract?" She brought two fists up between them. "Let's do a pro and con list. Pro. He's hot." She lifted her left pointer into the air.

"This is silly," Alexis said.

Steph gave her a stern look. "Pro and con lists are never silly. Now be quiet. Pro. He's rich." She held up her middle finger creating a 'V'.

"Peace to you, too." Alexis giggled.

Steph rolled her eyes. "Would you get serious."

Alexis sighed.

"Pro." She held up her ring finger. "He's hot."

"You've said that one already."

"Yeah well, I figured he's so hot it should count twice," Steph explained.

"The same should go for rich than, too," Alexis stated.

"Good point." Steph lifted her picky. "Pro."

"Don't you have any cons?" Alexis asked.

"Um ...," Steph looked over at her right fist, deep in concentration.

"What about the fact that he's a womanizer?"

"Wasa womanizer. Alexis, you said yourself that he told you he wouldn't cheat on you and that you believed him."

"Okay fine, but he's got to have at least one con." They looked at Steph's right fist.

"Does he have a small dick?" Steph asked.

"I wouldn't really know, but I don't think so."

"Well, how big is it?"

Alexis held out her hands. "I guess about like this."

"OMG. Pro!" Steph popped her thumb out and waved her hand in the air. Then they collapsed on the bed laughing.

Jack arrived a few hours later, looking skeptically at Alexis's two suitcases and three boxes. "Is this all you're taking?"

"I know, right!" Steph sauntered out of Alexis's bedroom, looking her usual sexy self in a pair of tight jeans and an even tighter T-shirt that highlighted her curves perfectly. Her blond hair was styled precisely, and her make-up was flawless. "I mean, what typical girl goes away for a month with only two suitcases and three boxes?"

Alexis looked down at herself. She was wearing a pair of gray cutoff sweats and a baggy T-shirt that had 'ALWAYS GIVE 100% UNLESS YOU'RE DONATING BLOOD' written across the front. Her hair was in its usual messy bun atop her head, and she wasn't wearing any make-up. The best thing she could say about herself, at the moment, was that her legs were shaved. "I guess I'm not your typical girl," Alexis shrugged.

Jack walked up to her, lifted her chin with a finger and gave her a very long, very deep, very thorough kiss. "Thank God for that," he said, giving her a wink.

"Wow. That was fucking hot." Steph said, sounding awed.

Alexis giggled, feeling slightly drunk from Jack's kiss. She recovered slowly but still managed to introduce Jack to Steph.
