Before He Lied

Hardin Chapter 56

⚠️SENSITIVE WORDS AND CONTENT⚠️

*Follow me on Instagram Hessatextstories *

Tessa and I repeatedly sent back emojis, it's so cute when she does stuff like that. I quickly get ready because I'm definitely gonna be late. I messaged her because I wanted to make sure she got to work safely.

...
As I'm able to leave the room to go take my exam I get a message.

I look down and see a message from Sam.

*Haven't seen you in a while, have something to share with me? If you don't spill I'll tell Tessa everything.*

My body freezes, I look at the clock and see that it's already 8:30. I have 30 minutes until my exam, fuck.

I try to ignore her messages but they just keep coming.

*If you don't come to my apartment I'm gonna tell her.*

*I want proof.*

*Did you fuck her yet?*

*Maybe I'll send Chase to fuck her?*

I can't do this anymore, the guilt of this whole weekend was enough! I can't deal with Sam fucking breathing down my neck! I just wanna be happy.........why did I have to agree to this stupid fucking bet!

The messages keep coming and it comes to a point where my inbox is full, I shut my phone off and sit on the edge of her bed.

I yank at my roots hard.

I can't do this anymore, I don't want this burden on my shoulders.

I know it's fucked up but there is only one way to end this.

I stand up and walk over to the trash can, I reach in and pull out one of the used condoms and fold it. I place it back in the wrapper and slide it back into my pocket.

This is enough proof, I'm gonna show the condom and that's it. I'm not gonna say anything about Tessa or our first time or details.

I just need Sam off my back.

Is this enough proof?

I suddenly remember that underwear was part of the bet.

NO!

Not her underwear I can't.

I look to the ground and see her red lace panties.

I can't.

I'm not that shallow.

I won't step that low.

The condom is enough.

My sudden pride to have bragging over Chase kick in.

Before I realize what I'm doing I reach down and grab her underwear, I shove the panties into my pocket before I grab my keys and leave the room.

I missed my exam.

The exam that I promised Tessa I wouldn't miss.

The exam Tessa spent all of Sunday helping me study for.

Fuck!
...

As I drive to Sam's apartment I replay my first time with Tessa over and over in my head.

I pick it apart.

I take out the emotion and the love and the intimacy.

Sam can't know I love Tessa.

If she finds out I love Tessa she's gonna torture me.

I need a story that's believable but that won't reveal too my much.
