After buying all the necessities needed for our so called “grill-out” I followed Layla to her boyfriend’s house. Damn it was big. It looked like it had to be over a 500,000 house, but he was a music producer so go figure.

We carried in the groceries into his huge kitchen and I started to put them away. “Forget that Kim, come out here I want you to meet Levi and Justin.”

We walked into his back yard and I noticed 2 tall hot guys playing basketball with their shirts off. One had blonde short hair with a go-tee and the other had a short brown hair that looked like it could be curly if it had grown out a little more. Both of them had nice bodies, and the fact that they were dripping with sweat only added to their hotness. They must’ve noticed us walked down the hill to the court when one of the men, who I assume was Levi shouted at Layla. “Hey babe did you get the stuff to grill out?”

Both of them started walking towards us and I couldn’t help but notice how hot Justin was. He had an extremely toned body, nice hair, and beautiful blue eyes.

Layla interrupted my thoughts soon though thankfully. “Yes honey. I’d like for you guys to meet Kim. Kim, this is Levi, and this is Justin.”

“Hey guys, thanks for inviting me to the grill out.” I probably sounded cheesy but hell I couldn’t get my eyes off of Justin. He was so fucking hot and nice to beat it all. “Nice to meet you too Kim, thanks for getting and bringing us the food. We had a battle going on and I doubt we would’ve been able to get it till a few more hours.” he looked at me and smiled. Damn he has nice teeth too. I could already tell my move was starting to become worth it.

***********************************

After finishing our meal, we all decided to sit outside next to the fire pit and have a few beers. I wasn’t much of a drinker, but it felt nice to let loose and relax. Layla and Levi were in the pool pretty much making out the whole time, so I got to spend time with Justin and get to know him a little better.

“So, you moved out here from NYC recently right?” taking a swab of his beer.

“Yea, I wasn’t happy there so I found a position open at my job here and transferred.” I couldn’t help but stare at his body. Damn, it had been along time since I had actually sat and conversed with a man who worked out and took care of himself.

“That’s cool. I’m not originally from here but I love L.A so it doesn’t make me that homesick.”

“Oh really? Where are you from?” I asked, starting on my second beer. I wasn’t a big fan of beer but it was starting to relax me so I figured I might as well drink a few more.

“Tennessee. I am in the music industry so I live out here to work.” I noticed he had had a few beers himself.

It suddenly started to get quiet and awkward to I decided to interrupt Layla’s make out session and get in the pool myself. I stood up and pulled my tank top and shorts off that had my new black bikini on under it. I’m glad I wore it too because Justin definitely noticed. “Want to go for a swim with me?” I asked, hoping he would say yes.

“Yea let’s go!

The rest of the night consisted of us swimming and drinking beers. Justin and I talked all throughout the night, I got to learn a lot about him. He seemed like a nice guy, one that I could definitely see myself getting to know a lot better.

The next day while I was at work Layla called me at my lunch break to fill me in with some good news. “So Mr. Timberlake became quite acquainted with you the other night.” Giggling I was little excited to hear that.

“Oh really, how do you know this?” I had given him my number that night when he walked me to my car, but he hasn’t called or texted yet so I’ve decided not to get my hopes up.

“He told Levi you were hot and pretty cool to hang around and had mentioned us doing something like that again soon. You should totally go for him Kim, he is hot, rich, nice, charming which means a perfect catch!”

Layla was into the whole rich, celebrity scene and I mean trust me I wouldn’t mind it, but I know that a lot of the men in that industry cheat on their wives and girlfriends and I wasn’t looking for that. “Yea we could I guess…”

“You guess?? What do you mean girl? Justin is like one of the top wanted men in this city and he is interested in you! You should totally go for it!”

“I know that Layla, but I’m not going to be used or cheated on like I was with Ben. I’ve heard how Justin has this reputation of dating girls for a little while, screwing them and them moving on to the next and I don’t know if I’m up for that, even if it does give me a little advantage in this city.”

“I will admit, he hasn’t had a girlfriend in along time, well since he dated Jessica, but that was like 7 months ago. Maybe he is ready to settle down and get one and not be a player anymore. Maybe the right girl hasn’t came along so he just gets tired of them and goes for another, ever thought of that?”

She had a point. Most of the girls in this city where whores looking for their way into fame and money, but I didn’t care about that. I needed time for myself to get my shit together and I didn’t want to be dragged down into a relationship like the last one I was in. “OK. I will hang out with him, but I’m not going to sleep with him or anything like that. We can be friends and go on dates or whatever but I’m not getting into the whole love relationship thing. I’m not ready for it.”

“Good because there is a party at club Venom tonight and they want us to come. There will be a few more people there that you can meet that way you won’t have to feel like you are on a date with Justin. Just come out, have a few drinks and a good time. It’s Friday night so let’s let loose!”

The idea sounded like a good one at the time, so I figured why not? “Alright I will be there. What time you want me to meet you there?”

“Just come to my apartment, the boys are picking us up because they have a driver hired that way we won’t have to worry about drinking and driving. Oh, and wear something cute because I’m sure it will be packed tonight! See you at 8 girl!”

I will have to admit I was excited to go out and meet people and have a good time. I loved to dance and having a few drinks made the idea even more fun. What I didn’t know was that night was going to change my whole new beginning.
