Chapter 12: Dane

I hated the idea of Lisa being in pain right now. I didn’t want to leave her, but I had no choice—besides, she shared a room with Tanya. There was a natural instinct to want to make sure that she was alright. From the sound of things, Penny was looking out for Fiona, and letting sleeping dogs lie wasn’t an option with Fiona. She was the type to go all out; this was the beginning and the taste of what was to come. I felt guilty about the idea that this could be my fault in some kind of crazy way. Fiona was the type to put on a front, act as if she didn’t need anyone or anything because she had it all under control. I knew deep down she was insecure, and she had the type of personality who would go after or make someone suffer for her needs. I should have known better than to show Lisa some type of attention in front of Fiona, because the only thing Fiona would want from here on out would be blood.

The guys were asleep in the bedroom, and I was pretty sure Lisa would be too, but I took a chance and sent her a text.

-Hey, beautiful. Hope you’re doing well?

I smiled at the idea of me being romantic and sweet at the same time. A nature I never knew I possessed. I was about to put my phone down when it chimed; she replied.

-Looks I wasn’t the only one up at 1 a.m. unable to sleep.

-I feel nothing like beautiful. If anything, more like the ugly swan.

-Ugly swan? Don’t get it.

-Like all the cheerleaders are beautiful and I’m part of the team, but they just keep me around for the sake of it.

-Where’s this talk coming from?

-Someone feeling big and useless.

I found myself stuck, not sure what to say. Worried if my fears of Fiona doing a lot more to Lisa had come true.

-Just feeling sorry for myself. Ignore me. Been sleeping all afternoon, now I can’t sleep.

-Yeah, I was pretty sure the painkillers would make her drowsy, but I thought it would last all night.

-Dane?

I was feeling sleepy, but I didn’t want to tell her that, so I decided to keep the conversation going, even if I shouldn’t have because I had to be up and out first thing tomorrow morning.

-Sorry, was just thinking?

-About me, I hope.

-Nothing else is worth thinking about.

-Tell me more…

I hesitated for a second, wondering how far to push it. Then I decided to go all out, and just tell her how I felt.

-I love watching you practice.

-Why?

-Cause you seem so confident. You brace the stage and claim it. As if nothing can get you down. The opposite of what you’re doing now.

-I’m not in pain. Not really. Just upset that Penny would do such a thing, you know? Go out of her way to hurt me.

-Yeah, shocked me, too.

-Really?

-Yeah, cause Fiona would do that, not Penny.

-But I’m after her man. She was protecting her territory.

-I’m no one’s man. I’m free and single to do as I please. Tripping someone up isn’t going to make me run to you.

The texts were flying off my fingers, and within seconds, she replied to them. I wondered if once again I’d said something to make her think otherwise about replying.

-What will make me run to you?

-At the moment, there’s not so much running you can do. Taking it easy and relaxing.

-I’m serious.

-So am I.

I chuckled, but then the no reply made me realize she really was serious and wanted to know what I wanted in a girl. She didn’t realize she had all the qualities and she didn’t even have to try.

-Blue eyes :)

-Funny.

-No. I’m serious. I love blue eyes. I could just melt in them. I’m sure a sucker for them.

-What else?

-A woman with meat on her.

-Meat or just fat?

-Do you want me to tell you? Or are you going to be down on yourself again?

It was a bitch slap, and I hated giving it. The moment I wrote it, I regretted it, but realized it was too late to take it back. I’d already sent it.

-You’re right. Go on. Sorry.

-Don’t apologize, you’re an active person and now you’re stuck in your room, it’s natural.

-Yeah, but it’s only the first day.

-I’ll be there for you.

-Will you? I mean, you have practice. Finals…

-I don’t need you to tell me my schedule. Besides, you’re my motivation.

-Motivation?

-Those oval lips. Sexy giggle. Smile so wide that it brightens up my day.

-U really have words.

-Believe me. That’s not all I have, baby.

-U’ll show me?

-And more. A promise.

-Now, you try to catch some sleep.

-I will now I’ve had such a promise.

-That’s another thing I like.

-?

-A girl who loves to be told what to do.

-Night.

-Sweet dreams.

-Of you. Xxx

I felt tired before and was ready to close my eyes and drop to sleep, but as I put my phone down, my hand slipped into my pants. I thought about Lisa’s lips on my cock and I couldn’t think of anything better than dreaming of filling her mouth with every last drop of my sperm.
