Lena Adams
                          
Ouch! My head! I can't even remember the majority of last night, what even happened? I roll around in my bedsheets getting comfortably but that's when it feels different. Oh no! I'm naked. 
                          
I didn't... did I. I'm so humiliated! I cannot even remember getting home, getting naked or getting into bed. My head thumps erratically, then the water and paracetamol catch my eye, I wouldn't have placed them on the bedside table without taking them. 
                          
I need answers. 
                          
"Hello?" I groan over the phone as Stef answers. 
                          
"Good morning Miss Confident" she chuckles down the phone and that does not sound reassuring what-so-ever. 
                          
"Oh no, what did I do?" I awkwardly ask, I don't want to hear the answer but I need to. I pray I didn't humiliate myself in front of the woman I like so much.
                          
"Well, I went to the bathroom and you followed staring at me so I knew you were drunk. Then I said bye to Jenna and Kelly and they thought I was taking you home to have sex with you because we were linking hands" Oh no.... sex? I'm naked... that must explain... but then she continues. "Then we got to your door and you was fighting with your purse so I took you inside, and you couldn't stand still, so I took you to bed and sat you down so I could clear away the pillows and duvet but ..." oh no... there a but... "then when I turned around you was in your bra and pants, so I helped you into bed, covered you up and got you water and paracetamol that I advise you take right now" she chuckles. I couldn't be any more embarrassed if I tried. 
                          
I stripped down to the bare minimum on our first date, I drunk over my limit and I hit on the one woman I like too soon in a possible relationship. I'm a fool and I wouldn't be surprised if I've lost her. 
                          
"Lena... you still there?" Stef questions, clearly I've been quiet for too long now. What am I going to say. 
                          
"Yes... just embarrassed" I admit truthfully. 
                          
"Don't be, I liked what i saw, a lot actually, look don't be humiliated, I had a good night last night, and..." she pauses for a moment, "and... I miss you" 
                          
"You miss me?" I ask confused. She misses me. I'm shocked.
                          
"I do yes, I like spending time with you" she sounds serious, I cannot believe how lucky I am. "Why don't... you come over for the day, we can cuddle up on the coach and watch movies with some wine and pop corn. Brandon isn't home until 6 tonight" 
                          
This all sounds convincing, I mean it's not like I have anything else to do. Sure... why not. "Cuddle up on the coach and movies, sounds like something a couple would do, you're a little forward aren't you foster" i tease.
                          
"I intend on keeping my clothes on, do you?" She fires back. Boom, she's good, I so deserved that. 
                          
"Yes I do actually" I sass.
                          
"That's a shame" she chuckles. 
                          
"Okay, I'll get ready now" 
                          
"Great, I'll see you soon"

Here I am, stood outside her flat, in comfy clothes, ready for a day on the sofa, this sounds awfully normal, I like it. 
                          
I knock on the door and she soon opens it revealing her looking flawless in grey tracksuit bottoms with a white tank top and again... she takes my breath away. 
                          
"Come on in" She offers stepping aside letting me bass through. 
                          
"Thank you" 
                          
"Can I get you anything?" She offers.
