Gina

"Damn it Missie," Gina muttered under her breath. She was supposed to pick her up for lunch ten minutes ago and she was still sitting in the parking lot. She was apparently talking with a tenant. Sighing she stepped out of the car, hoping to speed up this process. She'd had a string of shitty dates that put her in one hell of a bad mood.

Two weeks ago she'd let this guy take her home only to find out that he just wanted to cuddle. Apparently he was saving himself for his future wife, and while Gina wasn't going to bitch about that, she would bitch that he got her to his house under false pretenses. What happened to the days when girls were teases and guys always put out? It had been way too long since she'd had sex, and even longer since she'd had anything other than mediocre hook-ups. She was frustrated, and something was going to have to give, or her bitchy mood might become permanent.

She reached for the handle to the door to the outside office and almost got knocked down by someone coming out. Her hands flew in front of her face and she reached out to keep from stumbling. Her hand landed against a solid chest, and she could smell the musky aftershave. She managed to suppress a small moan as she looked up.

No. Fucking. Way.

"Gina?" The gorgeous brown hair blue-eyed reminder of college was smiling at her, making her go all soft... and wet.

"Hey Josh. What are you doing here?" Before he could answer Missie bounded out the door with her keys in hand.

"Hey." She looked from Gina to Josh. "Do you two know each other?" She quirked an eyebrow and Gina nodded. "Yes." Josh said. After another beat Gina looked away from Josh and turned to Gina.

"We went to college together." Josh was still grinning and Gina was trying not to remember all the naughty things he'd done to her back then, but her nipples perked up anyway. Damn libido. This was what happened to the sex-starved.

"Oh," Missie was still fumbling with the key in the lock. "Well maybe you should join us for lunch, Josh. We were going to grab Mexican." Gina felt the air rush out of her lungs as Josh agreed. She walked woodenly to the driver's side and unlocked the doors. The three piled in and Missie chatted about the restaurant they were going to. Her tone was somewhat frantic and without even looking Gina knew that Missie realized she'd made a mistake inviting him.

Of course it wasn't really a mistake, but Gina just wasn't sure how to navigate this particular situation. Josh had been two years ahead of her in school. Her Sophomore year she pledged his fraternity's sister sorority. They had a super hot and heavy fling spring semester of his Senior year, but then he graduated and they went their separate ways. No hard feelings, just drifted apart. she thought he was living in Florida somewhere, but that had been years ago.

"So I take it you've moved into the complex?" Gina glanced at Josh in the rearview when Missie took a breath.

"Yeah, work promotion. It looks like I'll be here for a few years." She nodded and turned her attention back to the road. Gina explained to Missie that they'd both been Greek and Josh shared a silly story from her pledge week when she'd asked him to sign her stomach for a scavenger hunt.

They laughed and Gina felt herself relaxing some. At the restaurant they settled in and ordered before Josh excused himself to the restroom. As soon as he was out of earshot Missie exhaled.

"Girl, I'm sorry. I didn't know that your fraternity hottie's name was Josh or I might have figured it out before I invited him to lunch."

Gina waved a hand, no point worrying now. Besides, if Josh was single her sexual drought could be over.

"Don't worry about it. It just caught me off guard. Josh was always a fun guy. It's cool that he's living here now." Missie sipped her diet coke and smiled.

"What?" Gina asked.

"So he was good in bed, huh?" Both girls erupted in laughter just before Josh reached the table. He slid in close to Gina.

"What's so funny?" he asked, smiling right at Gina. She smiled back not answering.

"Gina was just telling me about the way you guys used to climb the bell towers in college." Gina shouldered bounced with silent laughter and Josh's eyes gleamed. Missie was trying to make some conversation based on things she knew about Gina. Of course what she didn't know was that Josh used to take her up the towers for uninterrupted sex.

Josh started to laugh, "She was, huh?" Gina was shaking her head as the laughter took over and she started giggling uncontrollably. Josh started laughing too, and realizing that she wasn't in on the joke Missie just rolled her eyes and sipped her soda.

Their food came and they ate. When they got back to the complex Josh got Gina's number and Missie ordered her to come by her apartment after work for a drink and some serious girl talk. As she headed back to the office Gina could feel the butterflies in her stomach. Today was the day her luck had changed.
