fucking amazing!
    “Thanks for a great night Trevor.  I really had fun.” She smiled so sweetly.
    I leaned over and gave her a hug. “My pleasure Ava.  See you in the morning.”
    I needed a very cold shower!

    “I think that’s it.”  I set the last box in the middle of the living room of Ava’s new apartment.
    She really didn’t have too much to move, and her new furniture was going to be delivered this afternoon and put together by the delivery people, so we didn’t have to worry about that, although I would have loved an excuse to stay longer.  I had a hell of a time convincing Nick and Tom to do this for me on a Saturday morning.  It looked like Talia wasn’t feeling it any more than my two friends.
    Ava had pulled out a bag of chips and salsa and we all gathered around the breakfast bar.  I tossed the guys each a beer as we settled against the counter for a much needed break.
    “You look familiar, you sure we haven’t met before?”  Nick popped a chip in his mouth, looking Talia over.
    “I don’t know, maybe…do you watch porn?”  Talia asked innocently.  Ava and I cracked up when Nick started to choke on his chip.
    “Nice.”  Tom nodded and chuckled.
    “Not funny, I could have died damn it!”  We were all laughing at Nick now, and he really tried hard not to join us, but in the end he was smiling too.  It looked like he’d met his match with Talia.
    We all decided to part ways until later that night at the club.  Ava would be driving herself and Talia, and Nick, Tom and I would be driving together.
    “Thanks for your help today.  I really appreciate it.”  Ava reached up and hugged me tight for a brief moment.  Much more brief than I would’ve liked, but considering we were friends , it was perfect.
    I shut the door and walked to the elevator where Nick and Tom were waiting, holding the doors open.
    “So, what’s the deal with you two?”  Tom asked as I pushed the one on the elevator panel.
    “We are friends .”  I groaned, leaning my forehead against the wall.
    “Last time we saw you two together, you looked a little closer than friends to me.”  Nick wiggled his eyebrows.
    “She’s coming off of a two plus year relationship with a guy who is a total prick.  You remember the asshole at the club? I don’t think he was very nice to her, and that night at the club, the motherfucker left bruises on her arm.”  I shook my head.  “He better hope I don’t see him again.” They both nodded, knowing I was dead serious.
    “Hey, thanks for helping me today.  I’ve got the first couple of rounds tonight.”  My friends were good guys.  They had my back like family—there was no doubt about that.
    “Come on, let’s go eat.” I owed them a meal too.
     
    ***
    The club was packed by the time the guys and I showed up.  Ava had texted me to say that she and Talia found a table next to the dance floor. 
    I looked around, but it didn’t take long for me to find her.  It was almost as if I was drawn to her, and god she looked hot tonight!  Her long dark hair hung in soft curls over her shoulders and down her back.  She wore a fitted red sweater with a black skirt and boots that did sinful things to her legs.  This friend thing was going to kill me!
    “Wow man.  Did you see Ava?  She looks hot!” Nick nudged me.  “Hey, with you all being just friends , mind if I take a stab at her?”  I whipped around, glaring at him until I saw the smirk on his face.
    “Shit Trevor, I was afraid you were gonna hit me for a second there!  Reel it in.  Don’t get pussy-whipped before you even get the pussy.”  He laughed.
    “Seriously Nick, don’t talk about her that way.”  I warned as I headed over to the table.
    Ava and I discussed some of the key points we saw in the club, after all, we were here for work right? 
    Tom went to the bar to get us another round of drinks while Nick and Talia were taking on the dance floor.  It didn’t take long for
