Never forget you

Chapter 32: Knight

All day my mind raced with thoughts of her. With images of us together and memories of the people we once were. Seeing Skye today has been harder than I thought, especially because of her little sultry outfit. It was like she was a siren calling to me and everyone else, waiting for someone to answer her. She's flaunting her gorgeous body around making rage boil up inside of me at every eye that leers on her for too long. But, as much as I don't want to admit it, insanely fucking horny. For her. Not just her body but everything that she is. Everything that we are together.

I let out a low growl before we pass her in the hall as she talks to her blonde friend Lila. Her bright aquamarine eyes stare up at me as Niko and I pass her and my body reacts. My dick strains against the zipper of my black jeans making it more difficult for me to walk straight. My mouth dries up and my eyes zoom down to her mouth as her tongue slips out and wets them. I swallow down a moan as I think about how they tasted.

"Maaaannn," Niko drawls out on a low chuckle as we pass the girls.

"What!" My sharp tone only makes his laughter grow and I grunt as I watch him try to get himself together. He doesn't so I end up punching him in the shoulder as we turn the corner in the hall. "What, asshole! Say it!"

Niko shakes his head, running his finger under his eye for effect. Asshole isn't even crying from laughing. "This is too good. Yo, you got it so bad my friend. So, so bad."

I roll my eyes not wanting to admit to anything because the sad truth of the matter is that Niko is right. As much as I don't want to admit it I still have strong feelings for Skye and they've only increased after our time spent together this weekend. But I can't let myself go there, not after seeing that she's just playing me.

"Whatever." I try my best to let Niko's comment roll off my back but then he says, "Dude, don't be like that. You guys have a past. Hello, I know all about it. But..."

"But, what?" I stop in the middle of the hallway causing him to halt too. My best friend looks around us to make sure no one is close enough to hear our conversation. "Knight," Niko gives me his don't-bullshit-me look. "I know you've still got feelings for her. You always will. Just like I'm sure she always will, too. But what happened between you guys happened four years ago and you never even talked to her about it. Never even questioned her. You've got so much built up shit inside of you. From her. From your mom. From everything. Just...," he pauses, taking a breath and looking over my shoulder. I turn my head and notice he's staring at Skye. "Just talk to her, K, alright? Get it out in the air. Maybe she'll admit she fucked up. Maybe she'll apologize and you guys can move on. Whatever the case, I think it's time to just let it go because honestly, man. She's grown into a pretty cool chick and I'm sorry but I hate not being able to chill with her like we used to."

Still staring over my shoulder at the blue-eyed girl walking toward me I whisper, "Yeah. Maybe."

When I turn back around to Niko he's smirking at me like he knows something has already happened between us. Like he knows I'm bound to be a chicken shit and not do anything about it. But then he claps me on my shoulder before walking away and says over his shoulder, "Or maybe she'll knee you in the balls, tell you to fuck off and that she's had better. Who knows," he shrugs with a cocky grin on his face and my anger grows. Fucker.

He knows just what to say to get under my skin. I shake my head as I watch my best friend walk toward his class before zeroing my eyes on the girl who holds my heart in her hands. Lila leaves her side and I look around noticing that the hallways are almost empty considering everyone is trying to get to class on time. Not me. Nope. Niko just put a challenge in my face, making thoughts run rampant in my mind and now I can't focus on anything else.
