he kissed me, but when he tried more I stopped him. I wasn’t that same little girl anymore. He got angry and started yelling at me. Asked what my point was in not having sex for the past four years if he couldn’t have me.”
Kate heard him yelling at me from the stairs and when she walked in the apartment she pulled up 911 on her phone. Told him he had exactly thirty seconds to get out or she was calling the cops. Told him to never come back.”
“Did he leave?”
She nodded. “Turned and said remember our agreement then he walked out.” After blowing out a long breath. “Pretty effed up, huh?”
I found it cute she didn’t just say fuck because I sure as fuck wanted to.
“Naw” I smiled. “He is, for doing that to you. Do you…still want him? Still love him?”
PLEASE SAY NO…
“No. I see what he’s done now. And I’ve watched movies and read books and when he and I were together…I mean like sex…it was nothing like it was in those movies or books. I know that some of the things he did…the rough stuff. Well, he hurt me. And he got in my head.”
“He’s still in your head,” I said taking a risk.
She reached up and touched my face and that was my undoing. I think I melted beneath her touch.
“Help me get him out,” she begged.
And suddenly this was my sole purpose in life.
Chapter—Will
We finished our drinks and sat in silence for a while listening to the music. To me, it wasn’t an awkward silence…just silence. And I wondered why she chose me to trust, but I was ecstatic.
“How much do I owe you?” She asked.
I finished that beer and shrugged. “Well now it depends if you’re talking about the cab back from here when I refuse to let you leave or the cost of your clothes when I rip them off?”
She giggled and I could listen to THAT sound all day…and night.
“You want to rip off my clothes right now?”
“Pretty much every second since you threw powdered sugar in my face. But yes, right now in particular.” I narrowed my eyes.
“Now that you know the extent of my extensive sex life. Tell me about yours.”
I chuckled only to cover my nerves. There was no way in hell I would out myself for the man whore that I was. “Cam you don’t want to hear about that. There have been others. Let’s just leave it at that. OK?” God, if she thought she was dirty after letting Max have his way with her, she’d never understand the countless, nameless, faceless girls I’d been with. I went out on a limb taking her hand again and kissed her knuckles.
“Well. You are sexy as hell and have an awesome body so I’m sure there have been ‘others.’ But I kinda dig you because you’re kind and on occasion you’re funny.”
“On occasion??” I shouted. “ I am damn funny, all the time! In fact, let’s go back to the sexy as hell comment. You think I’m sexy?”
She rolled her eyes and started to get up. I yanked her arm back and she fell closer to me.
“Did you ride the short bus or do you just need a self-esteem boost?” she asked.
“Remember Cam…you’re trying to be nice. Give some effort.”
“Shut-up! You know you are sexy.”
“Maybe but when the woman you’re crushin’ on thinks you’re sexy, it makes your world complete.” I needed to feel my junk to make sure I was still a dude. I could only imagine if my old man heard this shit coming out of my mouth.
She threw her head back in laughter. “You’re crushin’ on me?”
“Clearly! Ask Landon back at the strength center. My guess is he realized I was pissing all around you…marking my spot,” I chuckled.
Her green eyes bore into my blues. “No peeing required.”
“I’m just saying. I drink loads of water. I’ll pee wherever I need to pee.”
Her laughter made me laugh and when her forehead rested on my shoulder, my body froze. Reading most girls was easy. A flip of the hair. Batting their eyelashes. Giggling incessantly. But Cam was different. More reserved. More
