"Okay, we’ll figure it out, I guess I have a few old ether in a pinch Let’s just hope the college network doesn’t go down"

"Work your ic"

I only understood about twenty percent of what Sid actually said, but I had no doubt he was a genius in his own right, so I trusted he would figure it out He couldn’t wake up before noon, ever, but the man could build a computer out of ram chips and motherboards in a few hours Plus, Clozpin had become his baby too, and like me, he worked on little else these days I was thankful for his dedication, even if itaround his quirks

"How’s the job hunt?" I asked, hoping he was as uninspired as I was to enter the real world

"Uneventful I haven’t been devoting ot up to start cleaning

"Erica, you don’t have to do that I’ll clean today, I proo offline in the next forty-eight hours, and we’ll call it even"

"Deal"

As soon as we entered the Wynn, I knew Alli was right It was barely past ten o’clock on a Friday night, and the casino was crawling with sexy wo the tiniest dresses I had ever seen I looked like a nun by comparison, so Alli dolled me up back at the room before we headed out to explore the hotel I settled on a tight black panel dress with nude puo a little wild and curly

"Girls here probably go to church in this dress, Alli"

"No kidding Hike it up a bit" She coaxed soe out of her tiny neon dress

Mine easily busted out of the scoop neck of my dress Stress hadn’t made my tits any ss to the iination You should too"

"Whatever It’s not like we know anyone here" She shrugged

I couldn’t disagree This erous too Thanks to Blake,to be touched, everywhere My vibrator wasn’t staving off the need he’d inspired and I was dangerously close to taking hoet ,could have played out, all ending withhis nahts He was on my shit list, notover my accessories No one loved fashion more than Alli At first I couldn’t understand how she could spend so y on her appearance, but eventually I caood on the inside than ih it certainly helped

It was past hway to our destination, a bar on the other side The place was h the crowd of loud and boisterous people

"Erica!"

I slowed, certain I’d heard my name over the noise I couldn’t be the only Erica here, but when I heard it again, I turned toward the sound and recognized a fa at a nearby roulette table staring directly at et out of here" I looked away and took the lead with Alli trailing behinda small traffic jam behind us

"That is Blake Landon"

"Whoa, what is he doing here?"
