“Anyway, how is Justin?” I said redirecting.

“Oh we broke up. That boy was a jackass. You know he totally cheated on me with that skank from our Organic Chem class this summer? I guess Maine was just to far for him to deal with for 3 fucking months. Whatever, I am over it.”

I laughed because I totally believed her and she was ready for the next boy adventure.

“We need to find you a nice boy” I said as we made our way into the clinic. Kaylen just rolled her eyes.

I had to check in for my job position that I got for the year. I was working 10-15 hours a week to get more clinical experience to put on my vet school application. I was on track to graduate at the end of this year. I had carried some big class loads to try and get my bachelors in three years and so far it was going as planned. Kaylen was a year older and a senior this year too, so we were both applying for the program at the end of the year. We were both nervous as hell about it. Getting accepted in to a DVM program was no easy task.

The receptionist set me up with a clinic badge and told me to come in on Monday after my 2pm class to talk with Dr. Mary Blandau. She would be my attending doctor and she would set up my work hours around my classes.

“Sweet Spencer, Dr. Blandau is one of the leading horse specialists. I bet you are going to learn a ton from her!” Kaylen said as we started back out the clinic door.

“I hope so…” I started to say “Uh-oh don’t look now, here comes Josh Beck…quick back inside”

“Shit!” Kaylen exclaimed as both made an abrupt about-face for the clinic door.

“Hey ladies!” we heard. Kaylen rolled her eyes.

“Hey I wanted to invite you to a party I am throwing next Friday.” This perked our attention. “Thought I would have a end of the first week bash before our lives turn into study hell! It would be especially great if I could see you both there.” His eyes stayed on Kaylen the whole time. Uhhgg, boys I thought.

“Sounds sweet! Thanks for the invite Josh.” Kaylen said quickly. “We gotta run, so uh we will catch up with you next Friday!”

“Yeah Thanks” I echoed. Kaylen grabbed my elbow and rushed us out to the parking lot leaving Josh with a disappointed look on his face.

“Wow! He still totally wants you.” I said to Kaylen

“Still totally NOT interested…but he can throw good parties!” Kaylen said with a wicked smile.

We headed to our favorite pizza joint for some food and tons of catching up. We spent hours sitting in a booth giving details about the summer that we didn’t get through our phone calls. She went back home to Maine for the summer, so our time zones rarely matched up for getting in a good conversation. Finally, I gave her the full details about the girl from my dream.

“As your designated wingman, I swear you have never hooked up with a girl named Ashley.” Kaylen said. “So are we going to start bar hopping to try and find this girl or what?”

“Somehow I really don’t think I am going to meet this kind of girl in the bars that we go to Kaylen! And who’s to say she isn’t just a figment of my imagination?”

“Bummer… well lets go bar hopping anyway!” I couldn’t help but laugh. I don’t turn 21 till February and I was missing my latest fake id, so the bars were out of the question for the night. We ended up watching as much of Season 2 Grey’s Anatomy as we could before we passed out on her bed. So much for going wild and crazy!
