10 days later already.

Upon receiving Mark's scary emotional rapist email, Electra was not able to answer him until the next day, as she had night life to take care of. Naturally, Mark thought she would be sitting in front of meet.com all night and interpreted the lack of response as rejection. This actually made things easier for Electra, as it enabled her to let him go with a simple "thank you, and good bye". And so that was the end of Mark.

Billy is also slowly fading from Electra's life. Every now and then a text message appears on her mobile but I believe meeting him is no longer especially interesting. However, if he happened to be in town and Electra was bored, she would most likely let him entertain her for an hour or two.

The most exciting of the recent events involves good old (or young) Malcolm. As Mark turned out to be a slight freak, she found Malcolm to be very straightforward and trouble-free to be around. And so, she invited him over for tea one evening.
He was tall and calm and smelt like a man, and as these things happen, they ended up in bed. They just laid there holding each other, and it was exactly what Electra needed. Peter had been a great lay but he was no good at cuddling, which is sometimes just as important. Electra was momentarily unshaven and had no interest in any hands moving around, and so the night was perfect.

Wednesday, I got home in the middle of the night to find a man's shoes in the hallway and voices coming from Electra's room. As she had told me she was going to invite Malcolm over, I knew it would be him in there. About half an hour later, he left. And so I was updated on the events of the night the next day.
They had
1 - had The Talk
2 - had Sex

1: Electra had been wanting to have The Talk for a couple of weeks now. As she was the one who had broken things off the last time, she felt like he was more into her than she was into him and was worried he might get hurt. She wanted to clarify that her calling him and cuddling with him and trying to get laid when she was drunk, did not mean that they were dating. Surprisingly, his response to her urge to talk things over, was "Yes, I wouldn't want you to get hurt".
To this day, Electra is still baffled by the answer.

And so they agreed that they were just friends who were allowed to do whatever they want with each other. I would call it a classic example of Friends With Benefits but I am not sure how Electra sees it. But with these things sorted, they proceeded to
2: having Se… oops, over.

Black eye project. A freak accident caused Electra to get a black eye a few days ago. This has proved to be an excellent attention drawer and ice-breaker, and must be used wisely for all it's worth.
