Karen slammed the door behind her and chunked her car keys at the far wall of her apartment livingroom. With a scream of frustration, she fell weakly back and slid to the floor, hot tears streaking her face as her head dropped into her hands. She knew the bastard had been cheating on her, but with two different women? Wasn’t she enough for him? It had been three years that she’d wasted on him, and she had just recently found out that he was unfaithful shortly after their relationship had begun. Knowing this, she now regretted all the times she’d turned down much better prospects in favor of trying to keep a lost cause alive.

She wasn’t undesirable in the least, in all reality. Long, thick, auburn hair fell in a soft curtain down to her lower back, brigh, emerald green eyes, lightly tanned skin, she was always described by her guy friends as “the one you couldn’t get, so you might as well be her friend.” Standing a mere 5′ even, she took great care of her body by both running and being a gym rat which only accentuated natural curves and full C-cup breasts.

One thing neither her nor her friends Allison and Li-ann could figure out why the loser had chosen to cheat on her with the women that he chose. She idly glanced at her cell phone as it’s shrill tone interrupted her soft sobs. She answered with a shaky voice, barely able to keep her torrent of emotions in check.

“H..hello?”

“Hey Little Bit… I just heard.” It was Jeff, one of her mutual friends with the betrayer. In the last hour or so, she’d gotten dozens of these calls, everyone seemed to be siding with her in the matter and not to her surprise at all.

“Yeah.. shitty news travels fast. You’d have thought I told my mom about it and she’s spread the rumors.” She loved her mother dearly, but the woman just couldn’t keep her mouth shut when it came to things like this. The whole family knew within a matter of two days when Karen had bought her first bra.

“Babe, it was your mom that called and told me.” Damnit! Her and her big mouth…

“Know any hit-men?” She forced a nervous laugh, but a part of her, somewhere deep within actually contemplated this fact.

“Oh, now, K.. why don’t I come over huh? We can watch movies, eat ice cream and you can beat me up a little bit yeah?” His laugh came easy, gentle, it was almost soothing to her. She sat against the door, frozen by his offer. The last thing she needed in this situation was the comfort of something with a penis. Then again, Jeff had been a great friend to her for the last six years since she’d graduated from high school, nevermind the incredible crush that lingered there as well that she had never before acted on. Her heart jumped into her throat at the possibility as a picture of him floated into her mind.

6’1″, short, spiky, blonde hair, crystal blue eyes, heart-melting perfect grin, and perfect dimples.. They had been gym buddies for a good duration of their friendship, so she knew he shared her passion for working out. She also knew how damn good he looked, the thought made her stomach stir.

“J.. I don’t know..” She jumped away from the door as she heard a knock from the other side, she hadn’t realised she’d screamed into the phone until she heard him asking if she was alright. “Y.. yeah.. I.. someone’s at the door J. I’ll call you back.” Hanging up the phone hastily, Karen slid to her feet and quickly wiped away her tears. This did nothing to hide the fact that she’d been crying for a good long while now. Rising up on her toes, she glanced through the peep-hole with one hand on the doorknob. Blackness. The jerk was holding his hand over the safety device. She wrestled with her feelings for a bit before calling out softly.

“Who is it?”

“Your knight in shining armor..
