New Year's resolutions are for the birds. Lose weight. Get a promotion.
Poppycock. I have a better one.
Be just like a dude.
I'm tired of being used up and spit out. Having guys make me believe that they really like me only to let me down. It's my turn to use them as my plaything.
At least...that's what I had told myself.
Then I met Matt. My first victim. He was just another rich jerk that wanted to show me a good time for the night then disappear the next day.
Except...he kept calling me afterward.
Well, I'll show him. I won't let him get one over on me. Commence Operation Resolution!
Genre: FICTION / Romance / Holiday“Bella! You made it!”
“Um, yeah, I guess I did.”
“Right on! And what about your friend?”
“My friend?”
“Her best friend,” Maggie interjected, stepping up next to me and jabbing me in the ribs covertly as she did so, “Maggie Wells. Nice to meet you.”
“Cool,” he answered, shaking her hand vigorously with a slightly lopsided grin, “glad you two made it. You know, Maggie, I have a friend here somewhere who would love you, I think. Hold tight, and I’ll go and find him, okay? The four of us will make a real night of it.”
“You know what? I was actually just telling Bella that I have a pretty massive headache.”
“No shit?”
“Um, yes shit. It just kind of crept up on me, you know? I didn’t want to make her leave the party, and I didn’t want to leave her on her own, but now that she’s got you to entertain her, I think I’ll go ahead and make my exit.”
“Are you sure, Maggie?” I asked through gritted teeth, my eyes wide and trying in vain to get across the message that I was in no way ready for her to go. This whole thing had been my idea, but now that it was a reality, I was terrified of being left alone with Eli. If these were his kind of people, there was no way he could be attracted to me! He probably wished he’d never invited me in the first place.
"Yeah, Maggs," Eli asked light-heartedly, missing the brief frown that crossed her face with his use of a nickname he didn't know her nearly well enough to use, "because my friend really would love you. He's always dug redheads."
