“Have you talked to you her?” Jameson asks staring at me. I place the fries on a table in front of him and shake my head. I just said I don’t know if I should call Ryo right now. I’m not brave enough to deal with her anger. I can’t imagine what she has to say after seeing me with Marlene. That was huge fuck up, why did I let her touch me like that?
“I just said…” I say and he shakes his head too.
“Well, you should text her or something. You can’t let this whole thing simmer. The longer you delay the more time you give her to think.” She says reaching for the fries. I watch him enjoy every bite, wishing I had the same excitement. I was looking forward to eating these but I’m not so excited anymore.
“I’ll talk to her, I’m just thinking.” I say and he frowns.
“Was it really that bad?” Jameson asks after a beat.
“It was that
“Now that we’re warm are you ready to talk about what happened today?” I ask Ryo in the stillness. I know we talked about it but I a lot was left unsaid. I don’t want this to come back and bite me in the ass later on. I want us to deal with all of it.“I told you, I don’t have any control over who you spend your time with. You’re allowed to do whatever you want.” She says her voice soft and slow. It sounds like I woke her from sleep.“So what you saw meant nothing to you. You had no feeling towards it.” I say and she groans.“Of ‘course it meant something. I have feelings.” She says her voice getting a little harder now. She shifts her body slightly but she doesn’t move away from me. “All I’m saying is I can’t police you while I’m going on dates with someone else.” She says and all the jealousy I was trying to hide creeps up to the surface.&l
"Wait a minute you did what, with who?" Kelly says screaming into my ear. I move the phone from my ear as my eardrum rings. If she screams one more time it’s going to burst. I’ve been begging her to stop but I know she don’t think she can hear me. She’s too shocked to process anything I’m saying right now.She’s been making me repeat the same thing over and over for the past ten minutes. And then when I do try to tell her what happened in the car she starts screaming at me. So she doesn’t hear what I’m explaining. My nerves are shot because of what happened and she’s not making it any better. I was hoping to have a normal conversation with her. But it’s not possible right now. I was hoping she would help clear this fog in my brain.I should give her a few days to process this and then we can talk about it. It’s a shame I need someone to talk to right now. I need someone to help me make sens
"Wait a minute you did what, with who?" Kelly says, screaming into my ear. I move the phone from my ear as my eardrum rings."Why are you screaming?" I ask, closing my eyes. I still can't believe Oliver and I did that. My body is still buzzing. I've never done that with anyone. Why did I do it with him?."Why are you not screaming? This is huge, this is life changing." She says echoing my thoughts." I don't know how I feel about what happened. My body is on edge. I’m a little confused."It's normal to feel that way." Kelly says her voice laced with so much excitement. I wish I felt the same way but all I feel is confusion. I keep wondering what would have happened if his phone hadn't rung.."I don't know, I keep replaying the whole thing in my head." I say but I don't finish my thoughts. I want to say more but I'm embarrassed."Do you regret what happened?" Kelly asks, reading my thoughts. She knows me too well. I don't have to say the words for her to figure it out."I just feel lik
“You’re staring.” Ryo says, looking at me shyly. I smile and look away to give a second but that only lasts a little while. I can’t keep my eyes off her. I’m drawn to her in a way I never thought I would be. It's like she has a hold on me.“Am I making you uncomfortable?” I ask, smiling, I know she’s feeling overwhelmed. I know it’s going to take a while for her to get used to us being together. In the time we’ve spent together, I’ve learned a lot about her. Like how it takes her a long, ;long time to get used to change.“Not uncomfortable, just really close.” She says, smiling shyly. I can tell she wants to say more but she’s holding back. She’s been keeping herself at arms length since we got here.Kelly had the brillia
One week later I look out the window and smile. I can't believe I'm in Oliver's house. I’ve heard rumors about his house and how big it is but my imagination couldn’t conjure up this much wealth. It’s more than big, it’s luxurious. His bathroom is double the size of my mother’s plant room. And that’s not counting his bathroom. I should be freaking out over the fact that I’m in his house but I’m freaking out over the fact that we’re alone. I don’t think I can control the feelings that are stirring inside of me. The more time we spend together the deeper my feelings for him go. I don’t think I can call what I feel for him a crush anymore. I feel something so much more intense and it’s threatening to burst. “I don’t see how me standing in the middle of your bedroom is the same thing as us taking things slow.” I say turning around to look at Oliver. He’s sitting at his desk looking at me closely. He’s been watching my every move since we walked into his room. He hasn’t really said
Oliver's warm lips touch my arm and I almost moan. A few minutes before this I had tapped out of his deep stare. The look in his eyes said so much to me. I saw so much hope and expectation. He looked at me as if he were begging me to give him everything I am. My heart was beating so fast I couldn’t breathe. It scares me how much emotion can pass between us. Now as his lips caress over my skin, I can feel all that hope filtering into me. I close my eyes as he continues to kiss me all the way up to my neck. I hear a moan escape from my mouth and into the silent room. I grip onto the covers as a way to keep the rest of the monans from doing the same. I hate the sound of them. His kisses reach all the way to my collar bone.My heart beats faster as I involuntarily grip his neck and move him down my collar bone to my boobs. I let out an even louder moan when he kisses me there with an open mouth. I like the feel of his lips on my skin but I think I’m a fiend for the feel of his tongue. I
“Are you sure you want to do this?” Oliver asks looking at me with so much lust in his eyes.“Nope” I reply smiling and he frowns at me. “But I’ve never felt this way.” I say letting him into my thoughts. “It feels like I’m on fire. Like my insides are burning.” I say and he smiles.“I feel the same way.” He says and my heart skips a beat. “I don’t know hoe I’m able to hold myself back right now. I want to be inside of you so bad.” He adds his words making my skin get warmer. He wants me. He wants me as much as I want him. “But I don’t want us to do something we’re both going to regret. I want you to be sure.” He says his face serious.“I’ll never be sure about this. About us.” I say realizing how crazy this is l. Oliver, the guy I’ve had a crush on for so long wants me. Little old me? “I’ll never be sure that this will work.” I say and he has this look of disappointment on his face. “But what I’m sure of is that I want you right here and now. I don’t want to worry about what happens
“How are you?” I say sitting across from Kelly. She smiles at me and nods.It’s been exactly 12 hours since Oliver blew my mind and my back. It’s incredible how everything reminds me of last night. Even things that are not related in any way to what happened.I got home this morning and I was having intense flashbacks. Memories of his mouth on me, his hands touching me. His lips caressing me. I couldn’t stop the flood of feelings coming over me.I had to get out of the house. I had to call my friend, I need someone to talk. That’s why I’m sitting at a table at the most expensive café in town. I chose it at a whim. I knew I needed somewhere to decompress. Somewhere that wouldn’t remind me of Oliver. But a part of me knows I’m failing at the latter. But I’m willing to try anything, even pay a ridiculous amount of money for a mini expresso. I don’t care, all I know is that I have to get the night out of my system and I’m hoping the coffee will do the trick“I’m good.” She says after a pa
