Shannon is beautiful. Beautiful face. Beautiful body. She is assertive. Sublimely imposing her will. She gets what she wants. But she brags too much. Thinks too highly of herself. She cuts others down. Not in an obvious way. But hidden behind fallacious compliments.

This is not a hasty assessment. We spent all day with her. Experienced the different sides of her persona. She pissed me off. The way she spoke of Kaya. As if I would agree. Truly conceited. Sway me in a day? I think not.

Her early morning confession was exposed. I told Kaya about it. She was disappointed. She invited her for fun. Not to steal me away. She asked me what I thought. I bit my lip. Winked at her. Told her I was irresistable. We laughed. Then we thought up ways to ditch her.

We were unsuccessful. Shes still here. Sleeping in our bed. Kaya is awake. Looking at me. I feel protective of her. I want to be alone with her. To go out for hot croissants. But Shannons here. Preventing us. We need to ditch her this morning.
