A Beautiful Affair 7

"Joy, I'm dating Mara" Mick said as he sat on his bed, looking up at Joy who was in a sexy black negligee

"No pressure," she stated seductively, her hands on her hips. She walked closer to him and straddled him, her legs on both sides of his "Just shut up and kiss me, but don't you dare fall in love with me"

Mick didn't know what got into him but the next thing he knew, he was kissing Joy. He knew it was wrong, but for some reason he couldn't help it. He continued to kiss her until one thing lead to another and this became a regular basis.

Both would secretly meet each other after school somewhere in or out of campus, his hand would touch her thigh during dinner, under the table when no one was looking and no one would notice. No one knew about their little affair but that was just it, was this, little affair, really just a little affair or is their more to it?

Could it be possible to love two people at the same time? Because Mick did it, he dared to fall in love with Joy whilst being in love with Mara.

School the next day appeared to be normal, except for Mara not acknowledging Eddie's existence. He had tried to talk to her several times but she just turned the other way, not wanting to confront him about the other night. He was uncertain on how Mara was feeling, was she outraged, upset or bothered about the other night?

Mara closed her locker door and her heart almost skipped a beat when she saw Eddie leaning against the locker next to hers. He was just about to open his mouth to say something but she quickly looked away and was about to walk away but was caught by Eddie's grip on her arm.

"You can't ignore me forever, Mara" he stated, making her face him

"Watch me" She hissed at him as she pulled her arm from his grasp and walked away.

"We need to talk about the other night!" He almost yelled as she walked away. She was put to a halt at his words and turned to look at him again.

"Come with me" She grabbed him by his bag and entered the near by janitors closet.

"We need to talk" He stated looking down at her as they were both inside the supply closet.

"No we don't" she replied

"Yes we do" he said "Mara, about the other night, I'm sorry. I didn't know wha-"

"Stop" she cut him off "It was a mistake, a terrible huge mistake. A mistake that won't happen again"

"But what if someone finds ou-"

"No one will, until someone tells them and you're not going to tell anyone, right?" she arched an eyebrow at the blonde

Eddie simply nodded

"But Mara, I feel," he sighed "I feel guilty"

Mara's cold stare at him softened and suddenly she was the one feeling guilty. She wrapped her arms around his waist and hugged him.

"I'm the one who's supposed to feel guilty" she breathed

"You're dating Mick" he stated

"I know" she sighed, tears were starting to form in her eyes "But I've done things much, much worse"

"What you mean?" he asked curiously, looking down at the brunette

She looked up at him with teary eyes

"I just didn't sleep with you" she moved his gaze away from him "I s-slept with J-Jer-Jerome" Eddie's eyes widen in shock and was speechless. "Please don't tell anyone, especially Mick" she begged

Tears finally streaming down her eyes

"Mara,"

"Please, I'm begging you don't tell anyone!" she pleaded

"I promise" he said, feeling sympathy for the girl "I won't tell a soul"

A rest of the day dragged on as on massive blur, classes finally getting to Mara, she felt bored and uninterested.

A piece of paper suddenly was passed on Mara's table during Chemistry; she looked around the classroom trying to search for the one who it came from.

'Meet me behind the Frobisher Library'

She looked around the room one more time to see who it could possibly from but everyone looked normal. The bell rang, indicating that it was time for lunch and she sighed and gathered her belongings, she made her way to the Frobisher Library. There was no one else to be seen and when she turned a corner, she was confused to see that no one was there.

Could have it been a mistake? Maybe the note wasn't for her and it just landed on her table by accident? But no, by the bushes she saw a shadow from the corner of her eye, she turned sharply to face who ever it might be but no one was there.

She was just about to head back to school when she noticed a brown envelope by the bushes; she looked around her surroundings and walked over to pick up the envelope.

'Mara Jaffray, I know your dirty little secret'

The front of the envelope said, her eyes widened as she read it and curiosity got to her and she opened the envelope. Inside were pictures of her, pictures of her with Jerome! Kissing!

Her jaw dropped as she scanned the several photos of her and Jerome. They were taken in the library the day she caught Joy and Mick together. She came to the library to be alone but she didn't except to see Jerome there and after explaining everything to him, they kissed.

She placed the photos back inside the envelope and put the envelope inside her bag, no one could see this, she would be ruined. She knew what she needed to do with them, burn them.

Mara spent the rest of their lunch break thinking who could possibly have seen them in the library that day and took photos. She sat in the student lounge, staring blankly into space as someone took a sit next to her on the sofa.

She turned and saw her boyfriend, Mick.

"Hey babe" he said

She looked at him for a moment without saying anything, she analyzed his face and he didn't look like he was feeling guilty for cheating on her but she then realized that she was also doing the same. They were both cheating on cheat other; the only difference is that there was proof of her betrayal.
