“And? What did I say?” Chad asked, his face paling as he had a sickening feeling he had fucked up that day.
“You told me you haven’t because the thought of you dating me is the craziest thing you’ve ever heard,” she recalled, her expression completely deadpan.
Chad cursed out loud, making Nicole look at him weirdly, but he ignored her as he mentally berated himself. He was furious with himself because here he was blaming Christopher for stealing her away when apparently he had went and shot himself in the foot long ago.
Though it was his fault, too, that Nicole and Christopher got together because he had set them up, so he really didn’t have anyone but himself to blame. He stood up and scratched the back of his head.
“Do you want me to take you home? It’s getting late,” Chad said, not wanting to speak of the matter any further. Nicole stood up and followed him out of the bar and into his car. They didn’t speak at all as Chad drove, but when he gave the signal to turn left, the way to Nicole’s house, she raised her arm and stopped him, shaking her head.
“I don’t want to go home,” she said. Chad raised his eyebrows, confused.
“Why not? He asked.
“I know Christopher’s going to be there waiting for me. I don’t want to see him tonight,” Nicole answered.
“Well, where do you want to go?” The roads were pretty much deserted at this time of night and Chad didn’t have practice scheduled tomorrow, so he could take Nicole wherever she wanted to go. She kept quiet for a while, thinking of where they could go to pass the time.
“Why don’t we just go to your place? I can crash there if it gets too late. Then I’ll just take a cab in the morning,” she suggested.
Chad had half a mind to argue that it wasn’t a good idea to take her back to his place, especially when he was the reason she and Christopher were at odds. But when he turned his head to look at her, the stoplight reflected off her skin and made her look sad, but beautiful. It made his heart speed up and ache at the same time.
“Alright. Let’s go.”
Chapter Eight
The night was getting out of control very quickly.
As soon as they arrived at Chad’s place, Nicole immediately went straight to the cupboards where she knew Chad kept his secret stash of alcohol. She took them out and cheekily invited chad for a drink, and he agreed, thinking he could use a bottle or two himself.
Two bottles turned into four, until they had lost count of how many they had consumed. Nicole took another sip of her drink before laughing hysterically at Chad, who was trying and failing to shoot a peanut into his mouth.
“You’re such an idiot,” she said, wiping her mouth with the back of her hand.
“I am not! It’s the fucking peanut’s fault! It’s making a fool outta me,” Chad grumbled.
“It is not making a fool of you; you’re making a fool out of yourself!” she cried, picking up a few peanuts from the bowl and chucking them at Chad. He opened his mouth wide, trying to catch some of them, and they both cheered when one peanut finally did.
“So are you gonna add that to your personal list of achievements?” Nicole kidded.
“Oh, I think we can definitely classify that as ‘Achievement Unlocked,’” chad replied with a wink, sending Nicole into another set of hysterics. Chad chuckled while watching her roll over the couch laughing, and then he murmured.
“God, I love you.” His eyes widened as the words left his mouth.
There was total silence – Nicole looking up at him from her position on the couch and Chad frozen and holding his breath as he waited for the earth to swallow him whole.
Nicole slowly got up from the couch, keeping her eyes on him. Chad swallowed, wondering why he felt like he was sobering up much faster than he thought, considering how much he drank.
She moved closer to him, still not saying anything as she crawled on all fours on the couch, Chad’s muddled brain making the sight all the more seductive.
“What did you say, Chad?” she asked, her hand going up his leg very slowly.
“I…,” Chad’s breath hitched as she got closer to him, her hand continuing to travel up his leg, and circling his knee with a finger.
Nicole had heard what he said earlier, but she was feeling a little greedy and a little selfish tonight. She wanted him to give her a confirmation that she hadn’t heard him wrong – that her heart hadn’t beat so hard and so fast for nothing. That she had finally heard the words she had longed to hear for the longest time.
“Tell me, Chad,” she purred, and Chad sighed, defeated.
He looked straight into her honey-colored pools and said, “I love you, Nicole. I’ve fucking loved you for a while,” he said passionately.
Nicole climbed onto his lap and held his face with both hands and kissed him – hard and feverish and wanton, sending electric shocks through Chad’s body, tingling from his head all the way to the tips of his fingers and toes.
Chad placed his hands on her waist, adjusting her so she was sitting right on top of his crotch and feeling him grow hard under her. She wrenched her mouth away from his as she moaned. Chad immediately assaulted her neck with a combination of kisses and bites. She held his head to her neck, pushing him closer to her skin as she reached under, her fingers brushing at his crotch and making him groan. She took his zipper between the tips of her forefinger and thumb and pulled it down slowly, teasing him again.
Chad was about to tell her to cut it out when she finally grabbed his length, holding it with a fist and making him groan. She twirled her hand over the tip a couple of times before moving her head to the side and licking the shell of his ear before nipping it, and he jolted. He placed his hands on her ass and stood up, prompting her to wrap her arms around his neck as he walked towards his room, kicking his door open.
He sat her down on the bed and grabbed the ends of his shirt and pulled it off. Nicole watched as he exposed his well-defined eight packs and chest, licking her lips hungrily. She pulled his belt off of the loops and unzipped his pants fully, pulling them all the way down. His cock formed a huge bulge in his boxers.
“Nikki, wha–” he growled, as she took him in her mouth, tonguing him through the fabric. Chad pushed her away, wanting to feel the wet and warm cavern of her mouth with nothing between them. He dropped his boxers to the floor with his pants and Nicole immediately paid attention to his throbbing organ once more, one hand swirling his balls in his palm while she held onto the base of his cock with the other. Her tongue jut out and she licked the tip like a popsicle before taking it into her mouth.
Chad shivered and held her head, not being able control himself as he pumped inside of her a couple of times. Nicole released his cock with a pop and pulled her shirt over her head. He pushed her bra up and circled her nipples with his thumbs until the stiffened into hardened peaks before taking one of her nipples into his mouth. He suckled her, alternating between one nipple before the other, and giving it sharp but quick bites before soothing the burn with his tongue. She removed the clasp behind her back, and Chad pushed her onto her back as she unbuttoned her pants, raising her ass so he could pull it all the way off.
She took his hand and pulled him down with her to the bed. She laid back, her hair fanning around his pillow and her creamy white skin bathed in the moonlight seeping through the window. Chad’s eyes darkened as he looked at her, his cock twitching in anticipation for the next part. She was still wearing her panties, and he could tell that she was so wet she had soaked through the material.
She saw the heated gaze he was giving her and, deciding to tease him a bit more, she swept her hand between the valley of her breasts, going down to her stomach, past her navel. She then pushed her fingers under her panties so she could touch her clit.
She swirled her hips as she rubbed herself a bit before taking her hand out and untying the sides of her panties and pulling it off. Chad remained unmoving as he watched Nicole repeat the process. She bit her lip and kept circling her clit with
her finger before sinking two fingers inside herself, causing Chad to groan loudly. He pulled her fingers out of her and took them in his mouth, tasting her juices and savoring it with his eyes closed. Nicole moaned, watching and feeling his tongue running down her fingers as he sucked. He opened his eyes and kissed her hand before going down on his knees and pulling her hips by the edge of the bed. He hitched both of her legs over his shoulders as he placed small kisses on each of her thighs, moving closer and closer to her sex.
“Nicole, look at me,” he whispered, his breath tickling the inside of her thigh and she shivered. She held herself up by her elbows and looked down between her legs, finding it incredibly sexy to see Chad’s head between them. As soon as he saw Nicole watching him, he blew a cold breath to her clit, sending her hips to fly off of the bed from the sensation. He held her down and gave her one long lick from bow to stern before proceeding to open her up more. His tongue sharpened and he pierced it inside of her, loving the way she tasted so sweet and tangy and wanting more of that taste down his throat.
Nicole couldn’t hold herself up any longer and she collapsed on the bed, her legs squeezing Chad’s head as he continued to lick her core. She turned her head left and right and grabbed at the bedcovers tightly so she wouldn’t trash around, and then she felt her walls start to undulate.
She raised her hips up and locked her legs around him, her release surging through her body and Chad lapping it all up.
Chad unhooked her legs and crawled up to her, lowering his head and kissing her passionately, letting her taste herself in his lips and tongue. She moaned and rubbed her mound against him, silently pleading him to quench her thirst for him. He positioned her legs, opening her wider to accommodate him and before rubbing the tip of his cock at her opening, sending shivers down her spine.
He sheathed himself inside of her in one smooth stroke until he felt something blocking him. He looked at Nicole, silently asking if she was sure she wanted to do this and she nodded.
“Please, Chad. Fuck me,” she begged.
He didn’t need to be told twice. He drove himself to the hilt, breaking her maidenhood completely. She had winced and buried her nails on his back, giving him that delicious combination of pleasure and pain that made him want to blow his load inside of her right then and then.
He pulled his cock almost all the way out, leaving only the tip of his cock inside of her before burying himself completely inside of her. She started to moan each time he pumped inside of her, getting louder and louder with each thrust as her pleasure intensified.
She turned Chad’s head so she could kiss him, forcing her tongue inside of his mouth and mimicking what was happening down below. She started to meet his thrusts with her hips, forcing him deeper inside of her even further.
“Harder,” she breathed, and Chad did as she asked. “Faster,” she whispered and Chad groaned before increasing his pace, liking how she was taking charge. He pumped inside of her a couple more times before pulling out, making Nicole whine in protest.
“Turn around,” he said, and Nicole scrambled on all fours, her ass hanging in front of him. He towered over her and pushed her down until her head and shoulders were lying on the bed before pushing his cock inside of her again. He bucked his hips and placed himself on top of her, putting his hands on hers and intertwining them as they strived to reach that peak.
Nicole’s inner walls started to undulate once more, clenching tightly around Chad’s cock, and she knew she was close. Chad’s thrusts became wilder as well, and she could tell he was nearing his orgasm.
They came at the same time, Chad exploding in long hot spurts that zapped his energy, forcing him to collapse on top of her. Nicole didn’t mind, equally exhausted herself, and the feel of his delicious weight on top of her gave her warmth and comfort. He moved to the side after a few moments, pulling Nicole closer so he could tangle his legs in hers. He kissed her shoulder before wrapping his arms around her once more.
“I love you, Nicole,” he murmured, before finally succumbing to sleep.
***
The light seeping from the window had woken Nicole up from her sleep. She groggily opened her eyes, waiting for her sight to focus and frowned when she saw that she wasn’t in her own apartment. The arm wrapped around her tightened, and she panicked, realizing she was naked as a newborn baby in bed with a man who she thinks is equally naked as she was under their blanket. She turned around slowly, wanting to see the face of the man she slept with and her eyes widened as she realized it was Chad.
Memories of last night immediately came crashing back. She was shocked that she was actually the one who initiated the whole thing.
She also remembered something equally important that Chad had admitted to her last night and even repeated after they had had sex with each other.
I love you, Nicole.
She shook her head, not wanting to process anything at the moment and hastily moved out of the bed, grateful that she didn’t wake Chad up. She picked up her clothes and put them on before leaving the house. She cursed as she had forgotten to leave him a note.
I’ll text him when I get home, she thought, before calling a cab.
Hours later, Chad woke up alone in his bed and immediately picked up his cellphone so he could call her, only to be surprised that she had texted him a few hours before.
Please don’t tell anybody about this. I’m so sorry. N
Chad felt his heart break into a billion pieces after he read it and he threw his cellphone to the wall.
Chapter Nine
Two months later…
“Promise me you’ll always be there for her, Chad.”
Chad shook his head as Jason’s words floated in his brain once more. It’s been two months since he last saw Nicole – since that drunken night in his apartment – and he hasn’t made a move to talk to her since then.
She killed him by leaving without saying anything. Then that text asking him not to tell anybody what happened between them, like he was some secret she was desperate to keep. She made him feel like he was a mistake, and no amount of remembering Jason and his promise to be with Nicole would make him take the first move.
He was sure that wherever Jason was, he’d understand.
“Come on, Stephens! Get your head in the game!” the coach bellowed.
“Yes, coach!” he yelled back, putting his hands under the center and tried to remember what play was just called.
It was the third time coach had to wake him up from his thoughts during practice, and he knew a fourth would earn him an earful in the locker room.
“Green 86!” he yelled, waiting for his teammates to get into position.
He remembered he made a promise to himself a week after Nicole left. He had tried to call Nicole a few times. He even drove to her place so he could talk to her, but she avoided him like the plague, refusing to see him or answer his calls. So, completely fed up with her behavior, he promised himself he was going to forget all about Nicole, and bury the feelings he had with her.
“Hut-hut!” The center snapped the ball to him. He dropped back and threw the ball to the wide receiver and watched him go. He knew Christopher was going to be pissed for not passing the ball to him, but he couldn’t bring himself to care.
Screw them both. As far as he was concerned, Christopher could just disappear right along with her.
***
Nicole missed a step and Madame Prince hissed and stopped the music.
“From the top!” she snapped, and Nicole looked apologetically at the other dancers who all glared at her.
Nicole mentally berated herself on her performance in the past couple of months. She hadn’t been doing well in class at all, making elementary mistakes left and right, and not being able to focus on anything. She felt like she was sinking in quicksand, and that any move she made was going to end up pulling her down to her death.
She had not been able to forget that night with Chad, and the guilt she felt for sleeping with him while
still in a relationship with Christopher was eating at her. She hadn’t told Christopher about it yet. She had refused to see Chad or answer his calls because she was confused over what she felt about the both of them.
She needed to get her mind off of it – at least while she was in class – or else she’d never get away from the quicksand sucking her in.
The music started again, and she finished the first set of eights with ease. But as she transitioned to a spin, a disgusting smell wafted into her nose and she felt bile rising to her throat and the room started to spin. She covered her mouth to keep herself from throwing up and the other dancers groaned, already anticipating that they were going to do it all again.
Madame Prince frowned.
“Nicole, come here,” she called, and Nicole closed her eyes before doing what she was asked. Madame Prince took her by the elbow and pulled her out of the class, preferring to speak with her in private.
“Madame, I’m really sorry. I’ve been so distracted and–” Nicole started to explain herself, but Madame Prince cut her off.
“Are you pregnant, Nicole?” she asked, and Nicole’s eyes widened.
“What? N-no, of course not,” Nicole replied.
“Are you sure?” Madame Prince asked, and Nicole thought about the last time she had her period. She mentally counted back, then counted once more to be sure, and she realized that she missed having it for two months now.
The scared look on her face confirmed it for Madame Prince, and she straightened up, looking at Nicole sadly.
“You should get yourself checked in the hospital right now, dear. And I’m sorry to tell you this, but I cannot have you coming to class anymore in your condition.” She patted Nicole’s arm, ignoring the disappointed and shocked look on her student’s face. “I truly am sorry.”
