Roe: Some time after we laid there, both our bodies spent I drifted. I hadn't asked her to leave it didn't even dawn on me that I couldn't slip out in the morning. It was a bridge I'd have to cross when we came to it. I didn't want it end badly because a part of me liked the possibility of seeing her again. Fuck. That wasn't a normal thought for me either. This day was fucking with me hard. 

I startled awake not long after I had drifted into a deeper sleep, looking groggily at the clock. My skin burning where her nails had tore at flesh, leaving her temporary mark. Just as I moved to slip from the bed, an arm lazily draped around me causing me to go rigid. She mumbled some form of comfort but it was her arm and the awkwardness of having her in my bed, now snuggled up to me that had me staying put, I’d never brought a woman home, I didn’t quite know what else to do in all honesty.

It took a few hours but I'd dozed off once again. My bottle of whiskey sat on the counter, untouched for the evening.. a rare occurrence in and of itself.

Avi: My eyes slowly opened to a room I didn't recognize. The confused panic set in as I tried to focus on what was around me, the last tugs of sleep left my mind. Finally the events of last night came flooding back to my mind and the realization that an all to real man lay in bed next to me. Shutting my eyes for a moment I took a deep breath, before turning to the clock, it read 7:23am. 

Slowly I removed my tangled limbs from Monroe's body, lifting his arm from around me before slipping from the bed silently. My gaze raked over his naked body as he lay peacefully asleep before me, like some form of god. I pictured climbing back in bed with him, roaming my hands over his body, over the hard length of his manhood.

Instead however, I leaned down and collected my clothes from around the room. My whole body ached with every move, last nights activities taking it's toll. Finally, with my belongings in hand I gathered up the pen and paper from his bedside cabinet. I wrote a simple 'Thanks for a wild night - Aviana' before leaving.

Roe: I hadn't slept so hard in quite sometime. As I felt the heat of sun rays forcing their way into my room I awoke and rubbed the sleep sand from my eyes and looked around. I found myself a bit shocked to see my bed was empty, thankful though there wouldn't be awkward moments of me asking her to leave or anything like that. I was though disappointed at the lack of morning sex.

Groggily rolling over I saw the paper, without even bothering to look I opened the door and swiped it in with the rest of the many numbers. Except with this one, there was actually a thought of calling her, meeting up again. She had proved she wasn't the immediately clingy type and that was something I could respect and embrace even.
