My enemy since childhood

Chapter 28

Although the water that followed us was still warm, i shivered in Thomas arms. I felt him squeeze before he loosened his grip on me but still kept his arms around my waist.

"Are you cold?" he asked softly, seeking my gaze but i just smiled weakly and shook my head, the shivers had nothing to do with the cold.

"Turn around" he continued so i raised my eyebrows questioningly.

"Why?"

"Now stop being so suspicious" he said with a laugh and spun me around in his arms.

I closed my eyes and really enjoyed feeling him close to me as i leaned against his hard body, but it was something i would never admit. Something i would also never admit was that i immediately felt an emptiness when he took a step away from me.

Somewhat surprised i heard him pick up one of the bottles i had put on the floor. Okay?

"You have really nice hair" he said so i couldn't help but laugh.

"Thanks i guess" i mumbled still with a laugh.

"Okay, that sounded pretty cheesy but you got it."

"Don't you usually like blondes?" i asked amused.

I was glad that i stood with my back to him, because my cheeks were really hot. A compliment from Thomas was not exactly something i had expected.

"No, or of course i like it but your hair is so naturally brown, it's nice."

I was about to laugh again but gasped with a contented moan when i felt his fingers massaging my head. It was really nice but what the hell was he doing?

"It's so nice" i whispered with pleasure and closed my eyes.

"Good. But now i will smell like a girl, what is it....vanilla?"

"No it's lemon. But what, you're used to smelling like girls" i said teasingly.

"Thanks for that" he murmured and wrapped his arms around my waist again.

"I know you don't believe me but i didn't have this in mind when i came here" he continued seriously so that my stomach fluttered. What did he want then?

"No? You are right, i don't believe you" i said trying to sound as uninhibited as i could but laughed when he tickled me with his chin at my neck.

"Okay, sure i thought about it and i can't lie that this turned out so much better than i first thought. But that's not the only reason i came here."

"Okay? Why did you come here then. I mean what did you expect in the girls locker room?"

"Well, of course i have been fantasizing about you...mostly naked, and that i would be lucky enough to see you in your underwear, but i didn't expect us to fuck."

"Oh my god what the hell have we done?" i said laughing embarrassedly.

"Come on. You knew it was going to happen sooner or later."

"Yeah?"

"Yes, i think you have wanted to all along."

"In all seriousness, i wasn't planning on sleeping with you, i was planning on sleeping with someone but not with you" i said, feeling victorious as he gasped violently.

"With who? Jake?" he asked harshly and i happened to tense his entire body which made me purse my lips to keep from bursting into laughter.

"You really meant that you are jealous. Cute" i continued laughing but the laughter died out when he spun me around so my hands landed on his chest.

"I will take that as a yes" i whispered as i looked up at him.

"I told you, no more games" he muttered and bent down towards me.

I lowered my gaze and shook my head.

"The game is over Thomas, you have won because we have slept with each other" i said briefly before turning my gaze back up to him.

"I guess we are both winners here, right?" he said when his lips were only a few inches from mine.

No, no more kisses because then i would most certainly fall and never get up again and with someone like Thomas it was far too dangerous.

"Maybe....but we should probably stop now and go back, someone will start wondering where we are."

I felt his chest rise under my hands as he took a deep breath. We stood silently and for the first time i wished i was a mind reader.

"Don't regret this Y/n-"

"I don't. But don't tell anyone" i interrupted and took a small step back but his arms stopped me from getting away from him.

"Why would i tell anyone?" he asked, sounding genuinely surprised.

"I don't know, but i don't want to end up in a lot of gossip and be named whore of the week."

"What the hell do you think of me?"

"This isn't about you, it's about what everyone else is saying about you and if anyone finds out what happened between us then..."

The words died out when i saw how he clenched his jaws and narrowed his eyes at me. He looked angry, the only question was what was he angry about? surely he must know what everyone is saying about him? he must have been proud of it and all his conquests.

"You don't have to worry, this wasn't exactly something to brag about" he said curtly and released me.

I stood as if delayed by the pain that twisted my heart. I pursed my lips to keep the tears that were threatening behind my eyes from coming out, not that it mattered when the water would cover most of it but it felt too humiliating. I knew what Thomas was like so his words wouldn't hurt me....but they did.

I watched as he pulled his pants and shirt over his wet body. He didn't turn around but the only thing that made me react was the hard slam on the door that made me jump.

I closed my eyes and leaned against the cold wall, which now felt like nothing but a cold wall. The game was over, Thomas had won and i was the one who had been hurt. Just the way i knew it would be....deep down.
