He looks at me, puzzled. For a moment, I don’t think he’s going to answer. However, he takes in a sharp breath.
“Yeah, there’s something between us. I’ll take a secret friendship. Something tells me it will be worth it in the end. I could use a friend more than you know. Someone outside my world.”
“Okay, Cam. I’ll give you my number.”
“Good,” he says with the brightest smile, those dimples popping like little cheek craters.
I know the moment I give him my number I’ve just changed my life forever.
CHAPTER 8
Guilty Conscience
Kayleen
As I look in the bathroom mirror, I keep wiping at my mouth as if I can wipe what I’ve done away. I keep wiping and wiping and nothing has changed. I feel so guilty and wrong.
“Kay, you all right in there?” JR calls from the other side of the door.
I cover my face and start to sob. He has done nothing wrong. He’s been sweet to me all night.
I don’t know why I thought this was a good idea. Everything was fine until I turned and dropped to my knees for him to pull the condom off and come in my mouth. It’s like the moment his cum hit my tongue and lips, it all became real.
I fucked someone else.
Panic set in and my mind began to race. Will Cam be able to tell? Will my mama find out and kill me?
The worst part is that I liked it. JR was gentle but firm. He’s gifted like Cam in size and skill. However, I wouldn’t say they are the same.
Cam was my first, and at one point, I thought he would be the only. Knowing what I’ve chosen to do makes me feel so dirty. Like I betrayed Cam.
“Kayleen?”
I sniffle and run my forearm under my nose. I know I should answer him, but I’m embarrassed. I don’t want him to think I’m a slut.
“Kay, baby, talk to me. What just happened? Did I do something wrong?”
Feeling bad, I turn to leave out of the bathroom. JR stands outside the door, looking concerned and confused. I drop my gaze to the floor, unable to look at him.
Covering my breasts and lady parts, I then try to find my clothes. Our things are thrown around his bedroom floor from our frantic rush to get each other in bed earlier.
“Kay, slow down and talk to me,” JR snaps, bringing me to a halt.
I turn and flop down on the foot of the bed. He comes to sit beside me. I still can’t look at him.
“I’m assuming we moved too fast and now you’re freaking out.”
I nod, still not able to talk. He places his hand on my back and starts to rub circles. I peek up at him.
“I’m sorry.”
“No, I’m sorry. I may have gotten carried away. I’ve had a thing for you for a long time.
“I knew you needed time. I should have thought about that. Listen, I don’t want this to ruin things between us. I want to keep in touch and hang out when I come home,” he says.
“I don’t know. Everything is happening so fast.”
“No disrespect to Cam. He’s always been a good guy. I’m not saying that he doesn’t treat you well.
