I'm about to finish the story, I wrote a lot at school, but don't worry, that doesn't mean the story's ending tomorrow or something like that, though it is shorter than my first story for sure. The thing is that those chapters that I wrote at school this morning are kind of short so I may update 2 chapters together from now on.
About this chapter: everybody screws up from time to time, don't blame him.
Enjoy and review.
Thanks so much for the reviews so far!
Waking up next to her after what we did last night was probably the best thing that ever happened to me. Emma was breathing evenly, her eyes were still close and I was only staring at her beautiful back in peace.
"Hey you" she said with a sleepy voice.
"Hi"
She moved closer to me and gave me a quick kiss. She laid over me, with her head on my chest and both her hands caressing my hair. Everything felt delicious.
"What are we, Dougie?"
"Best friends for certain"
"I dont have sex with my best friends"
"How many do you have"
"Well, only you"
"Then you do have sex with your bestfriend"
She laughed "Come on, you know what I mean"
"Yes, I do..."
Why did we have to talk about this? Yesterday had been our first time together and yet she was already asking me what we were. Couldn't we just enjoy out time geother?
"I dont want to freak you out" she said as if she'd known what I'd thought "but I've really waited for this to happen for so long..."
"Me too" well, probably I hadn't waited as long as she had, but still, I loved her so much.
"So if someone asks... What are we?"
"Do you want to be my girlfriend?"
"Only if you want, Dougie"
We look at each other... I would probably never break up with her, I wouldn't dare... So this was it? I was never ever going be single again? I whould get old by her side from time on? It didn't sound bad, but it was scary for me anyway.
"I do" I said... I was scared, but I was also afraid of loosing her because of my stupidity. It had happened once, I didn't want it to happen twice.
"Before that, I should tell you something..."
"Alright"
She looked insecure and hesitated before talking.
"I love you" she restes her head in my chest again. Though I was glad she's said that, I had the feeling that it wasn't what she was really going to tell me. She was still hiding something.
"I love you too" I kissed her forehead and closed my eyes once more.
I woke up on my own and that kind of freaked me out. There was a piece of paper next to me, it had Emma's handwriting and it explained that she had gone out to buy food.
I took a shower and while I was getting dressed, a low music filled the room. I turned to see what it was and saw Emma's cellphone in the floor. I picked it up and couldn't resist the curiosity, so I opened the new message that had just arrived. I felt annoyed once again when I recognized Tom's number. The message said 'Good morning, Emma, where are you? Giovanna's not going to be home tonight, do you want to come? We should talk'
I checked the rest of her messages; Tom, Tom, a guy called Jacob, more Jacob, then more Tom, Tom and Tom, then her mum, then Tom again for God's sake, then Jacob again... I had the feeling this guy was his ex, the one who broke up with her. Asshole. I checked Tom's messages; 'I'll be there in 10 minutes' 'Yes, it was fun' 'I dont like that place either' 'Giovanna is mad at me' 'We should tell Dougie'... I couldn't stop thinking about that last message. Tell me what? Something that Giovanna, Tom and Emma knew... Something that they were hiding from me. But why? Was it that bad? Was it what Emma had been about to tell me last night? She'd been lying to me even before we started dating...
What a fool I'd been.
I left her a message saying I needed some time on my own and left the house after that. I spent the day driving around the city. She called me several times and so did my friends. I could tell by Danny's message that they were pretty worried about me; it said: 'dude, where are you? Call us soon'... But I ignored everyone and even deleted Tom's messages. Emma was the one who called me the most, but I just wanted her to give up, to stop chasing for a while, I wasn't going to pick up the phone, she didn't have to even call.
I drove to the bar that was in the corner of the street in which I lived. I ordered something with tequila and drank 3 glasses of that. I could feel the alcohol making effect on me, I get drunk pretty easily and tequila was my weakness.
A pretty girl sat next to me and smiled in my direction. Her hair was black and short, just as her skirt.
"Hello, pretty boy" she said.
"Hi" I said.
"Can I buy another drink?"
"Sure" she put another glass in front of me and I just drank it fastly. I regretted it almost immediatly, it was pure vodka and it made effect on me since the very first moment I drank it.
"It's good, isnt it?" she said.
"Sure..."
"You know what else is good?"
"What?"
"Me. Do you want to taste me?"
I laughed "I can't, I've got a girlfriend."
"Too bad... Where is she now?"
"I have no idea" probably with Tom... I bet there's something going on between them, Giovanna found out about it and that was why she had been crying "I think she's cheating on me"
"If she is, then technically she isnt your girlfriend, she's a bitch"
"I guess you are right"
"So we can be together tonight after all..." she caressed my hair "How about we go to your place and I'll let you taste me?
I smiled and grabbed her hand "Come on"
