Page 4 of Chasing Sarah

“I hate you, Sarah! I hate you!” Roger screams and he slaps his hands over his face.

I roll my eyes and simply enjoy the fall.

So close.

I wasso closeto reaching that peak before the orgasm when Mr. Twopumpchump got overly excited after I told him to choke me, and he came with a weird whimper in my ear.

“I’m sorry,” Jonny says, tucking himself into his jeans.

“It’s fine. Could have happened to anyone,” I reply, pulling my shirt over my head.

“I can still get you off if you want?”

Not a chance.

“You know, I actually need to get going.” I slip on my sneakers and tie their laces.

“Oh… Um, well can I get your number?”

Once my laces are tied, I stand and face him. He rubs the back of his neck sheepishly.

“Look, Jonny, this has been… great. But I have no plans to see you again.”

Shock flashes over his face before he masks it.

“Yeah, I get it.” The slight clench of his jaw is the only sign of his annoyance about this situation.

Sorry, bud. You got off. I didn’t and this was probably top five of the worst sex I’ve ever had.

Grabbing my bag, I smile tightly at him before making my way down the hall and out the door.

“I’m going to miss you,” I say, pulling Roger into my arms.

He squeezes me tightly. “I’m going to miss you too. Don’t forget about me when you’re in the Big Apple.”

I pull away and hike my bag higher on my shoulder.

“How could I forget you? You made my first skydiving experience even more memorable.” I wink when he gives me a straight-faced glare.

“You’re awful,” He groans. “I’m never doing that again.”

I chuckle and then lightly knock his shoulder with my fist. “I’ll see you around, Roger.”

With a wave, I step onto the bus and find a window seat.

As we pull away from the station, Roger sends me a two-finger salute then walks away.

I dig into the front pocket of my backpack and pull out my headphones. I growl in frustration when I see the wires are a tangled mess.

“Son of a bitch,” I mutter and work to unravel the wad.

After what feels like an eternity, I place the earbuds into my ears and scroll through my playlists.

Settling on a random one, I lean my head against the headrest and close my eyes.
