Chapter two

Charlie's POV 

I haven't always been the person that I am today, I've seen my fair share of the awful things that can happen to people in this cruel world.

If I was anyone else? 

I would of tucked tail and ran long ago, but I wasn't.

The world had hardened me, or at least I thought it had.

The late night parties, the drugs, the heart break I suffered from such a young age.

At every turn I was just trying to escape the past that seemed to follow me wherever I went, no matter how happy I thought I was it could never fill the void in my chest.

But everything changed when I met Alex.

Four years ago, I received a message from some guy that I'd never met before, taking a chance I responded and it took off from there.

After a month of texting back-and-forth, random FaceTime calls, and late night talks that led well into the night. We decided to meet in person.

Which went a entirely different way then I'd expected.

Spoiler alert, we went home together. 

Technically, I was a 23 year old virgin. 

Having never slept with anyone, willingly anyways. 

I just didn't trust anyone enough to take that important next step, but I trusted Alex. Don't ask why, but I really felt in my heart that he wouldn't hurt me. Although I had intended to spend more time with him before we took the next step between us I guess everything happens for a reason.

From there it was a whirlwind, Alex and I couldn't spend enough time together. It was like we were joined at the hip, so it only made sense that we would move in together to start our lives. 

I couldn't of fallen faster for Alex if I had tried, I thought I had found the love of my life. The other half to my soul. 

I thought we had the perfect life, a quaint little house of some land, every animal I wanted, and we even started thinking about having children.

I was obsessed with my family, one simple message and taking a chance led to me finding this incredible man. Led to me being happier than I ever thought possible.

A life that was absolutely wonderful, until it wasn't. 

I met David about three months into my relationship with Alex. I never thought really anything of him. But knew it was a little weird that I continued to be nervous whenever we all hung out together. I just chalked it up to wanting David and Jill to like me because I loved Alex so much.

Alex and David were always close, so we spent a plethora of time with David and his wife Jill. 

They really were our best friends.

There for every pivotal moment throughout our relationship, then one night everything changed. 

The dream. 

Where I was separated from Alex, at some run down bar in the city.

Running into David was the last thing expected, but I couldn't of been happier to see a friendly face.

When he asked me out to his truck so he could grab a smoke, I didn't even hesitate. 

The conversation started innocent enough, leaning up against the side of David's truck he told me all about the issues he'd been having with Jill and how long they'd been apart. 

We seemed to bond over the same feeling of heart break..

Im not entirely certain who made the first move, but the next thing I was certain of was being pushed up against the side of his truck. 

Lips crashing down against mine, cool metal at my back making me gasp, giving David full access to dart his tongue into my mouth.

Honestly, if someone could have an orgasm just from kissing another person, David was about to give me the bes one In my life.

When his hands started wondering over me, like he was trying to learn every inch of my body, my brain shut off. 

No more little voice in the back of my head telling me this was wrong, that we should stop. 

Id never felt anything so magical in my life, it was like his touch lit my entire body on fire.

Burning with a need only he could satisfy.
