My phone rings and it’s Alvina. I could use some girl talk right now.

“Hey, girl!” I answer cheerfully.

“Peter Coleman!” she immediately shouts in my face as her image appears on the little screen. “Oh my god!”

“I know, can you believe it?”

“Tell me everything! Do you know he is valued at over a billion dollars according to Forbes magazine? Shake Place has locations all over the world: Tokyo, Rio, Berlin. Did you have sex with him?”

“Slow down, and I’ll tell you all about it,” I giggle.

“Sorry, Whit. This is just the most exciting thing that has happened to anyone I know. Maybe I should be a cam girl and meet a billionaire too.”

I laugh again.

“Allie, I had the most amazing time last night, but it’s not what you think it is. This is just a business arrangement, remember?”

“Why, Whitney? Why does it just have to be a business arrangement? Why can’t you get a happily ever after with a prince?”

My heart drops suddenly.

“A girl like me doesn’t get a happily ever after with someone like Peter. I can get a happily ever after with a plumber that has a good retirement plan maybe, but not a rich restaurateur.”

I can almost hear my friend making a face on the other side of the line.

“What do you mean ‘a girl like you,’ Whitney? You and I aren’t so different from anyone else. We’re both big, beautiful women with a lot to offer. You even own a bakery, so if a girl like you can’t get someone like Peter Coleman, then what does that say about me?”

“No, it’s not like that Alvina. You are so much more confident than I am. Your attitude alone draws men to you, and you know that blondes always have more fun. Speaking of which, did you make up with Derek?”

Alvina giggles.

“I did. He’s in the shower. We had some fun really making up last night. So, back to my original question: you spent the night with PeterC?”

“Yes. And we had mind blowing sex. My body aches and parts of me are sore, but I’m dying for more.”

Alvina literally squeals on the other side.

“Hell yeah, girlfriend! Are you seeing him again tonight?”

“No. He has to go to California, in his private jet, to take care of some things on the West coast. And maybe it’s for the best that I take some breathing room from him. I’ve seen or talked to him every day since the first day we met online. It would be too easy to fall for him and get my heart broken.”

Alvina’s silent for a moment.

“But maybe he has the same feelings for you. He could be spending his time with anyone, and he chose you.”

I shake my head.

“I wish, but I’m sure he only sees it as a business deal. He deposited another five thousand into my account before I was even out of the building this morning. To be honest, it made me sad, but c’est la vie.”

Alvina’s silent again.

“I know girlfriend,” she says quietly. “The money makes it feel really transactional, doesn’t it?”

“It does,” I agree quietly.

We’re both silent for a moment, but then I try to look on the bright side.

“Other than the earth-shattering sex though, something good might come out of this. He asked if I could come up with some new shake flavors for Shake Place.”

My friend squeals again.

“Whitney, that would be incredible! If SugarTime was associated with Shake Place, business would go through the roof. That raspberry cheese Danish is perfect with ice cream as a midnight snack. I’ve done it many times. There are so many of your creations that would lend themselves to unique flavors of milkshakes. Regardless of what happens with Peter personally, this is an opportunity you can’t pass up.”

“You’re totally right. This will keep me busy all week, so I won’t dwell on my emotions. Oh, damn…”

“What’s wrong?”

“A text from Peter just came through. He says he can’t stop thinking about me in his bed and can’t wait to see me next week.”

“See girl! I told you! This is more than just business.”

I smile despite myself as my heart warms.

“I’m just going to take this one day at a time. Alvina, I have to go. I have to check in with my parents. I’ll call you later to discuss more about the shake flavors?”

She burbles happily.

“Alright. Call me when you have some recipes! I’ll make them over here and test them out on Derek. He loves Shake Place, did I mention?”

I just laugh again, and hang up. It’s always nice to chat with my best friend because she gets me, and I don’t have to worry about appearing stupid or dumb before her. The situation with Peter is hard to read, but I always know that my bestie’s on my side. But now, it’s time to call my parents. With a smile, I dial their number and wait as the phone rings.
