This whole first week back had felt so surreal. We only had two more meets in the main season. Come the spring, we would be focusing on training more than anything and then the competitions. And just knowing that, knowing that it was all coming to an end, or a hold, when I was just getting back into the swing of things was a little unsettling.
Not to mention, all week Brittney tried to get me to talk to her. She had come to see me on my birthday as well. That had seemed so long ago now, but it was only two weeks. Damn, that was a long week that I spent with Makai or what? And still it seemed like it had gone by too fast.
The whole thing with Brittney was pissing me off though. Why was she trying so hard to talk to me and get with me? I didn't want her, I didn't want to see her or talk to her. I didn't even want to think about her, so why was she causing me so many issues?
Apparently, me ignoring her wasn't doing the trick either. I would literally walk away from her right in front of everyone. I would walk away from her if we were alone. I would walk away no matter what she did or said. Even the time that she grabbed me by the arm and yanked me backwards. That bitch was strong when she was mad.
"Stop ignoring me." She screamed at me this afternoon when I was heading toward the locker room. "I don't like being ignored." She was furious.
"I didn't like being dumped just because I didn't come in first place. But I had to deal with it, and so do you. It's life, get over it." It was the first time that I had actually spoken to her when she tried to get my attention all week. The only reason I did was because she was taking her attention seeking to the physical level by actually grabbing onto me.
"Come on, Ocean." She slid up next to me and started to wrap her body around me. "Let's go back to how we used to be." She was trying to sound seductive and sultry, but it was just making me gag.
"No thanks, not interested. Sorry, but that's just how it is." I pulled away from her and shuddered at her touch. "And please, don't touch me ever again." The crowd that had been watching us burst into laughs at the sound and sight of me rejecting Brittney.
The whole school knew she was an attention seeking glory whore. All she wanted was to be paired with the best that there was. It was pathetic really now that I could see it for myself. The only bad thing was, I don't think that she knows just how disgusting she truly was.
"I swear, I will get you back for this, Ocean Shores. I won't let this slide." She screamed at me as I walked on.
"Uh huh." I ignored her.
"Oh, did the pretty pretty princess get rejected by her would be prince?" Ryan mocked her as he walked by.
"Maybe you should have appreciated what you had before you threw it away." Ben added. I had stopped and was watching them as they added insult to her injury.
"Yeah, if you hadn't been such a bitch to our boy, he wouldn't have worried himself sick, and he wouldn't have been hurt, and you never would have dumped him and been left all alone. This is all your skanky fault." Ryan's words were less funny and more spot on, but he, and everyone around him still laughed hysterically. "Come on, Ben." He threw his arm around Ben's neck and turned him to face us and away from Brittney. "Let's get to practice."
There was a look of excitement in Ben's eyes when I saw him, and behind him I saw a knowing look in Brittney's eye. Did she figure out Ben's secret just now? I hope not.
"You're going to pay! You're all going to pay! Just you wait and see!" Brittney was nearly frothing at the mouth when she screamed those words at us. We ignored her and walked away while the spectators were still laughing at her.
Practice hadn't been any different than it had been all week, and before I knew it, I was driving myself home to the empty house. My parents were still at work, and I was going to get everything done before they got home.
I was hoping to go to Makai's house tomorrow, stay over for the night and spend the rest of my weekend with him, so I knew that I had to stay home all day today. My parents were leaving early tomorrow to visit my aunt again, so it's not like I needed to be home for them.
I was just really happy that I could go back again. In all honesty, I was just trying to do my best to make everyone happy. My parents and my boyfriend had conflicting interests. They all wanted me with them all the time. The problem was, I didn't want to hurt anyone by making the choice that I wanted to make.
"Goodnight, honey." My mom called out to me, and she and my dad went to bed just after ten. I would be going in a little while, after I called Makai that is. After my parents had gotten home, we had eaten dinner together, and I was a good enough sport to play a few hands of cards with them. It was something that we didn't do often, so I made sure to give it my all. I wanted them to be happy, that I was home with them and not to think that I was constantly and miserably lonely.
When I called Makai at about eleven thirty that night I didn't get an answer. That was a first. Makai would always answer when I called him. What could he be doing? Oh well, I would try calling him again in a few minutes.
I went into my bathroom and brushed my teeth, washed my face, and got undressed for bed. When I settled onto my bed I tried to call him again. Still no answer.
"Is he mad at me?" I couldn't remember doing anything to upset him. Maybe he was mad about what had happened with Brittney earlier. I don't know why he would be, but it was all that I could think of.
With a heavy heart, I turned off my light and went to bed. I had planned on spending an hour or so talking to him, but now I wasn't going to be able to. That was kind of sad. I wonder what is wrong.
I had been in bed for maybe five minutes when I heard something outside my window.
"What the hell?" I whispered to the silent room around me. "What is that?" It sounded like someone had just jumped from the tree to the edge of the room next to my dormer window.
I flipped on my desk lamp next to the window in question and instantly saw a face staring back at me.
"Holy shit." I fell to the floor when I saw them and had to calm my racing heart before I could stand up again. When I did, I opened the window and snarled at the person on the other side. "Dammit Makai. What the hell are you thinking?" I stepped back and let him climb into my room from the roof.
"I'm sneaking into my lover's room." He grinned at me. "Come on baby, doesn't this make you happy." He slurred his words a little and seemed a little tipsy.
"Were you drinking?" I asked him in a loud whisper.
"I was lonely without you." He looked saddened now.
"What the hell?" I rolled my eyes at him. "I thought the underage drinking was my thing." I laughed softly at him. "Why are you here?" I just shook my head at him as I asked that question.
"I told you, I missed you."
He crept closer to me and pressed his lips to mine. The next thing that I knew, he was pushing me down against my bed. I felt his tongue exploring my mouth and his hands followed along my body like there was a map that only he could see.
While he pressed himself against me and drove me more and more insane, there was something that struck me as odd. I couldn't put my finger on it for a moment. He smelled like liquor, his shirt was wet like he had spilled it on his clothes in his haze, and it had a strong scent as well. Under the booze, I could smell his typical orange and vanilla cream smell. His lips tasted like they usually did, as did his tongue, while he slowly made me lose my mind.
Wait a minute, he tasted the same as usual. He didn't taste like he had liquor on his breath. What the hell.
"You liar." I snapped at him as I pushed him away.
"What?" He looked at me like he didn't know what I was talking about.
"You haven't been drinking at all."
"How could you tell?" He laughed like it wasn't that big of a deal.
"Your kisses don't taste like it." I told him then blushed like that was overly embarrassing to say.
"Really." He purred the word into my ear. "I guess next time I need to swish it around inside my mouth before I sneak into your room, that way my breath will smell like it, and my kisses will taste like it."
"Fuck you. Why are you really here?" I asked him again, relieved to know that he hadn't actually been drinking and driving.
"It's still the same reason. I missed you. I wanted to sleep with you tonight. I have slept like shit all week, and I needed to rest up for our weekend." He looked ashamed to be saying this.
"Why did you pretend to be drinking?" I crossed my arms over my chest and stared at him in anger.
"Because I didn't think that you would let me stay otherwise."
"My parents are right down the hall." I told him with a serious tone.
"We won't do anything, just snuggle like we did that night of your birthday. I just really need you in my arms tonight." I sighed, I couldn't be mad at him. I wanted him with me too.
"Fine, but absolutely nothing else." I warned him as well as myself with those words.
I put on a pair of sleeper pants and a t-shirt. Makai borrowed some of my clothes and changed into them as well. That was the most excitement this night was going to have. I wouldn't do anything with my parents' room so close.
We ended up laying like we usually did, no more kisses, no more sexy or romantic things at all. We laid together in my bed and drifted off to sleep.. It was the best sleep that I had gotten since I came home.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
