Disclaimer: Obviously I don't own anyone except Cathy.
As I stared at the ceiling in my room thoughts of yesterday ran through my head. I still hadn't decided if I regretted sleeping with Chase. I hadn't talked to him since the shower incident, and I couldn't tell if he was avoiding me or giving me my space. It didn't matter, I wasn't ready to face him anyways; honestly, I hadn't even gotten dressed since I got back from my shower yesterday with him, I hadn't found the energy to move.
Pounding at my door caught my attention. I grabbed my phone to check the time and noticed it was dead, and in that very instant I knew it was John or Randy, or probably both at my door. So, I got out of bed put my robe on and lazily made my way to my door as the pounding at my door continued.
Just as I suspected I was greeted by a very angry John, and a sympathetic looking Randy. "Is there a reason you're pounding on my door?" I snapped.
"Why the hell aren't you answering your phone?" John barked.
Pointing at my phone by my dresser I responded, "Dead."
"Dead is what you're about to be!" John yelled.
"John you can't come banging on my door when I don't answer my fucking phone!" I yelled back. "I'm sick if you can't tell," lie number one, "and I don't need you and Randy to come to me rescue all the time!" Lie number two, I always needed them there.
"Cathy we were just worried about you." Randy said with a sigh. John glared at him, and I could see them have a silent conversation.
"What happened, and don't try and say nothing? You wouldn't leave the day you're supposed to fly out for a show for nothing." I said. I knew that look, that's the same look they gave me everyday for a year when they found out what my relationship with my ex-boyfriend was really like.
"Cathy-"
"Randy, don't you dare." John said cutting him off from whatever he was about to tell me.
"She has a right to know John!"
"She doesn't need to know, she's moved on and is happy now."
"She wouldn't need to know if we hadn't come banging on her door John!"
"You guys stop!" I interrupted them not being able to handle all the fighting anymore.
John sighed and looked at Randy as if telling him it was okay to tell me. "Tim, he came home." Randy spoke softly, and quietly, but to my ears it felt like he yelled those words out.
"I know, I was told by Nat, but you guys need to leave, no one except you guys knows I'm here, and he could have followed you, you could have led him straight to me. How could you guys be so stupid?" I said glaring daggers at both of them.
They knew I was right, I could tell by the look in their eyes. "We weren't thinking Cathy, we were just worried." John said.
"Well you two being paranoid buffoons could have just got me killed. So do me a favor and leave." I said pushing them out of my room. "Don't be stupid like that again. I'll charge my phone and check in every morning to John, and every night to Randy. If I ever do the opposite, you know something is wrong without me telling you guys, deal?"
John and Randy nodded, "Deal."
"Thank you for being protective, now leave." I said giving both of them a hug goodbye.
"Be careful Cat." Randy whispered in my ear.
"Always." I said back.
I watched out my window as they drove off and looked around the parking lot to see if any other cars were parked anywhere or hidden in the tree. After 15 minutes of scanning I decided I was safe and sighed.
I knew deep down though that my ex wouldn't come back for me. At least not yet, he'd want me to be freaking out till the day I got home. Plus, he had to only be on temporary leave, unless the military finally let him go, but they wouldn't do that without good cause.
So that was that, I wouldn't freak out, I wouldn't be paranoid. It was all just going to be one big head game for him, and he'd never act upon it.
I tried to convince myself, but I knew deep down, there was a storm cloud coming my way…
"You have to come to The Dells tonight, everyone will be there." My roommate stated. Yes, roommate. The past two weeks flew by and tonight was the last Saturday before school was to start. And I was aware everyone was going to be there, which is why I didn't want to be. After my whole porno, shower scene with Chase I hadn't heard from him, no surprise there. Even if it were no surprise, it still hurt.
"Look, I'm not a social butterfly. I don't want to go and meet 'everyone'" I said. That was a lie. I was as social as they came.
"Please, you'll finally get to meet my boyfriend, and you said yourself you were 'dying to meet him.' Well this is the time, and place to do so." Kate said with pleading eyes and a pathetic smile. When I said I was dying to meet him, it was only because Kate talked about him non-stop, like he was the shit or something. Too bad every guy I knew out in the real world would probably shit on him. "Plus, you really should get out of this room, and get to meet new people. You can't rely on me all school year."
Ugh, was she right as ever. I couldn't rely on her, because she was already annoying me and had only been here for 3 days. "Fine, I will go." She squealed, and gave me a hug.
"Good, let's find you something sexy to wear." Sexy? Really? This was going to be a long school year.
Well, Kate pulled it off. She got me to look sexy, and I actually went along with it. I wore a simple long sleeved white dress that showed much of my cleavage, ankle high black leather boots, and a leather jacket. I hate to admit it, but I dressed like this in hopes of running into Chase, I wanted to make him feel stupid for ignoring me for 2 weeks, but thinking about it now, I have no clue what I'd say to him if we met face to face tonight.
"Look, they're here." Kate said pointing to four boys. One with big muscles and long curly brown hair went up to Kate and scooped her up, must be the boyfriend. After exchanging a few lovey dovey words Kate was let down and pointed to me. "Pogue, this is my new roommate Cathy. Cathy, this is the amazing Pogue Perry."
"Pleasure," I said extending my hand to him, he took it with a light smile and turned back to Kate.
"Hi, I'm Caleb." A boy with the dark brown hair said extending his hand out. I stuck mine out as well, and took his hand in mine.
"Cathy, nice to meet you." So, Kate wasn't completely lying, not only was her boyfriend, I think his name was Pogue, sexy, but all his friends were as well. Yet none of them could compete with Randy, or Chase. Chase, who I have to admit I had been looking for the entire night, was no where to be seen. Maybe this wasn't his scene.
"I'm Reid." I blonde said pushing Caleb away from me. "You know Cathy is a very beautiful name, it was my-"
"Grandmothers name?" I interrupted him. "Yeah, I heard you tell the red head over there that your grandmother's name was Stephanie five minutes ago, nice try though." The boy looked like I just slapped him while everyone else was laughing. He just walked away, and mumbled something along the lines of 'bitch' but I let it go.
"Well, well, well, I didn't know we were accepting Boston trash now." I turned around to come face to face with a red head. If I was told correctly by Kate this girls name was Kira.
"West Newbury, but only the finest, thank you for taking the dick out of your mouth long enough to acknowledge my existence, but you can drop back down on your knees again and crawl away." I snapped back with a smile.
"Walk away Kira." Caleb said standing in front of me. He made a pretty big mistake, because I could handle my own, and I was about to let him know that when I guy with girly brown hair pushed Kira to the side and got in Caleb's face.
"Now, now Danvers, that's no way to speak to a lady."
"She's no lady." I piped.
"Just grab Kira and go away Abbot, we don't want to deal with her, or you right now." Oh, so this is Aaron Abbot, I was also warned about him as well.
"Why don't you make me Danvers?"
"Woah, woah, woah, why don't we back up here for a moment boys?" I heard a third, and familiar voice cut in. A voice I didn't expect to hear tonight.
"Why don't you back up, this is none of your concern." Aaron said getting in Chase's face. I was about to step between them when all of the sudden Aaron was covered in puke courtesy of his own friend. Everyone laughed, but I couldn't help but notice Caleb glare at Reid like it was his fault.
All the sudden everyone was running around in a panic. I was too busy paying attention to the boys that I missed the DJ shouted out that the police were on their way.
We ran as fast as we could to my car. Kate and I hopped into my car, and I was about to floor it when I noticed Chase looking around as if he lost his ride. I drove up next to him. "Get in." He smiled at me thankfully, and hopped in.
The drive back to school was filled with my silence, but Chase and Kate's flirtation. I just tuned it out and ignored the stabbing feeling in my chest.
A hot shower was what I needed after tonight, and I was going to get it. Since we got back 20 minutes ago all Kate had talked about was Chase, and how cute he is. It was annoying, and something I already knew. Honestly, it probably wouldn't have bugged me so bad if it was any other guy, but Chase? I couldn't live with that.
"Seriously, his eyes are gor-," Kate started, but I soon interrupted her.
"Gorgeous, I know, but don't forget you have Pogue." I said grabbing my shower stuff. Kate huffed at me. "I'll be back in a bit."
Walking down the empty hall I couldn't help but feel like I was being watched. I looked behind me and found no one. I shook the feeling off and made my way into the girl's bathroom.
I savored the feeling of the water hitting against my skin. It was if I hadn't showered in weeks.
Closing my eyes I couldn't help but imagine Chase's touch on me again. A fantasy I had, had every night, and during every shower since the last time I was with him. It was as if he was some ghost, some presence of some sort that kept following me every where I went. I could feel his lips graze my shoulders, his fingers run up, and down my back. It was like he was haunting me.
I felt so stupid thinking about him, I only spent 24 hours with the guy, and you'd think we dated for years. Getting over him was a must.
My thoughts were interrupted by a loud popping noise. I turned the water off as fast as I could and wrapped a towel around myself. That horrible feeling of being watched again was over coming me as I ran out of the bathroom and right into Reid, how convenient.
"Running from the big bad wolf are we?" He asked teasingly.
"No, I just ran into him." I said with a glare.
"What's wrong kitten?" he asked in a purring voice. I was going to try really hard not to be mean, it was only my first day and I had already made two enemies, adding another was not going to be an option.
"Something exploded in the bathroom, or someone was in there watching me, either way I'm out of here." I said.
Reid looked over my shoulder and laughed, "It was just a light bulb." I turned around and the fuck face was right, there was broken glass, and a flickering light above. Now I really felt stupid.
"Okay, thank you Sherlock Holms, now I'm going to grab my stuff and be on my way." I said shutting the door in his face and walking back to the shower. God did I feel stupid.
I grabbed my shower items and headed back out to the hall. This time walking out of the door I came face to face with Chase. "Do guys just stand out here and wait for girls to come out?" I asked annoyed.
"Possibly, but I saw Garwin harassing you and came to see if you needed saving, apparently you can handle your own." He said with a smirk.
"Yes, I can, now you can go to bed, maybe even take Kate along with you." I shot with an icy cold glare, and started walking away. I felt his hand as he lightly grabbed my arm and spun me around to face him.
"I only want you." He said before kissing me. The fire like feeling overcame my body, just like it had every other time he had kissed me before. "Give me this." He said grabbing my shower items, and dragging me to his room.
"Chase, we can't, your roommate." I said trying to get out of this. I didn't think I could be with him again; he needed to be no one to me. I couldn't let him in. He already took the most sacred gift a girl is given from me; I couldn't allow him to have my heart as well.
We stopped in front of his door. "I didn't get assigned a roommate. Please Cathy, come in with me?" He pleaded. I looked deep into his brown eyes. Was this a game he was going to play with me? Go weeks making me wonder and then when he had a hard-on he'd come look for me.
"If I come in Chase, and don't hear from you for another two weeks, you can bet your bottom dollar that you won't be seeing me any where except in class again." I said as if it was a threat, but who were we kidding, it wasn't a threat at all, but I could at least pretend it was.
He ran his fingers through my wet hair and down my bare arms, "I won't go missing on you again, I promise." I sighed and opened his door. He smiled down at me and gently pushed me inside. Shutting the door, he put my belongings on a dresser. I made my way over to his bed and he did the same.
I sat at the foot of his bed looking up at him. He pushed me down so I was on my back, smiling down at me he bent over, kneeling before me. "I'm going to take care of you tonight," he whispered seductively as he took off my towel, "every single bit of you." His tongue against my clit was the beginning to my long night of pleasure.
