My eyes snap open and dread comes over me. Oh no. It's here. I quickly but quietly hop out of Lee's bed, grab my clothes and haul ass to my bathroom.
The first cramp hits and I'm almost knocked to the floor from pain. Godammit, why couldn't I be pregnant?! Then I thought about all the boys I'd slept with in the last month and decided this was best.
I planned on being completely out of commission for the day. I got on my comfiest sweats. Took my last three midols and fell into my bed, curling up like a fetus until I faded back into sleep.
"Scar? Babe wake up."
"Hmm?" I groaned as I opened my eyes. There was Lee.
"Why did you sneak out of bed this morning?" He asked.
"I'm havi
"W-Wesley this isn't what it looks like." I insisted. "Well I mean it is but, just let us explain.""So he's been the other guy all along?" Wesley whispered."No, no! Lee is not the other guy. This is...recent."Wesley's eyes were now on Lee."How could you do this?" Wesley yelled at Lee. "You went behind my back and fucked her!""It wasn't like that, man it just happened. There's this...connection between us. I couldn't ignore it anymore." Lee insisted."Sure you could! You wanted this to happen! I saw the way you would look at her and you were always making sexual comments to her. You knew what you were doing.""Wesley, l
After the argument with Wesley, Lee and I needed some time to think and process, so I went back to my room. It was weird being there alone. I ended up falling asleep and I awoke when my phone started ringing loudly."Hello?""Scarlett?""Speaking. Who the hell is this?" I yawned."You don't recognize my voice?""You know how I am when I wake up, Lee. What's up?""It's getting late, where are you? My bed feels empty." I'm sure he was pouting."In my bed." I answered."Well can you come to mine?""I don't know. I'm feeling very lazy. I
Classes were back in session and I wouldn't admit it but I was nervous about what that meant for Lee and I.We had all of our classes together, so avoidance wasn't possible at all.Grayson wouldn't be returning until late tonight, so I had one more full day with Lee."You'll sit next to me in every class right?" Lee asked as we did our hair in the mirror. I kinda love that he's tall enough to stand behind me and still be able see himself in the mirror."If you want me to." I responded."I do.""Then I will.""And if there are projects, you'll be my partner?" He questioned, rapidly running his fing
I never was good at juggling.I could never grasp the concept of switching off at the right time so that nothing would fall.That has changed.The way I was juggling Grayson and Lee was wildly impressive. And the best part? I didn't even have to lie.Lee of course knew about Grayson and I told Grayson that Lee and I are mock business partners for our Econ class which is true. I could easily just tell the other who I was with and it wasn't a problem. It's too easy.Except that my feelings for Lee continue to grow. I kind of thought and hoped when Grayson came back, I would stop falling so hard for Lee, but I think I may be falling even harder now. He just understood me completely.
I turned away to face Lee and kissed him, trying to erase the intense blue eyes."You okay?" Lee asked."Of course. Just missed your lips" I ran my thumb over his soft pink lips."Oh my god Scar, did you see who's here?" Lulu asked. "Ty Dalton.""Wasn't he kicked out of Wrenford for drugs or something?" Carter asked."Yeah." I said. "He was dumb enough to bring them on campus.""Why is he looking over here like that?" Lincoln questioned."Probably recognizes us or something." Analeigh shrugged. "Who cares, let's go get a drink."The drink didn't calm my nerves. Nothing rea
I woke up to the sound of heavy rain. I loved rainy days. Too bad I had shit to do today like talk to my ex drug dealer and probably explain to Lee about the kind of person I used to be. I felt lips on my shoulder and then my neck. "You awake baby?" Lee asked. His voice was sexy in the morning. "I am." "Did you have a good night? Was it a good birthday?" "Most of the night was perfect." I turned around and faced him, giving him a kiss. "And that was because of you." "I was hoping we could talk about last night." Lee sat up. "Do you really want to talk when we could be doing other things?" I ran my fingers over his ba
I got in the shower. The water washed away my tears. I shouldn't be this upset. Things with Lee were never supposed to get this far anyways. I should be thrilled. The choice had been made. It's Grayson. Grayson who has always supported me and saved me and didn't judge my addiction. Shit I should call him. Our minds must be linked or something. When I grabbed my phone off of the counter I had a text from him. Rain check on today? (pun intended) storm is causing problems at work love u the most Damn it. I could really use some cuddling from him, especially on a day like this. When I exited the bathroom, Lee was back. "Don't worry, I'll be gone in a few minutes." I said.
Three weeks later, Lee still hadn't found the right answer. I figured he didn't want to, which was fine.We still sat next to each other in each class and worked on our project, but we didn't speak about the relationship we had only weeks ago.I decided to throw myself into my relationship with Grayson like I should have been doing before. Things were better than ever between us. I spent any time that I wasn't at school at his house. It almost felt like we lived together.We were in the living room at the opposite ends of the couch. He was working and I was doing homework."So, did you and that other guy you were seeing end things?" Grayson questioned suddenly."Sorry?""I k
