Twisted Truth

Chapter Six

MORENA'S POV

STUPID! STUPID! STUPID ME! I said to myself as I got dressed up and went out of Garrett's room. 

It was almost two in the morning and I didn't want to face Garrett in the morning on his bed with him. 

I felt like crap for doing it with him. I know I shouldn't have went into his room. Being with him these past few months has been an eye-opener. He was so different, different from the way Kirsten described him to be. He was sweet, thoughtful, charming, caring and gentleman. Ok, if he was he wouldn't have  gone to bed with me! Duh! But, but still he has been a gentleman since day one, if I didn't make the move he wouldn't have done it with me! He was weak, lonely, sad, vulnerable! And I was there- I knew he wasn't with me when we were doing 'it' , he called Serena's name when he was on his peak, it was a low growling of her name, maybe even subconsciously uttered, but he said it!

I felt like an icy cold water was splashed all over my face and my body hearing that from him, during the time we were being intimate! But can I blame him? I know who resides in his heart, I was just dumb to be there. He just needed release.

I, on the other hand? Maybe I needed that,too. But, it was more than that for me. I know it was wrong to feel this way, but I can't help myself from falling for him. Even when I knew he was my best friend's ex boyfriend! 

I felt terrible but it was too late. It's over and done with.

I don't know what lies ahead. 

One thing's for sure. I am in deep shit!

I used my key to open my room. Good thing I don't have to share this room with anybody. I didn't have to explain myself why I am coming in to my room late.

I was about to push the door to go inside when I heard a voice.

"Morena.."   

I looked around and saw Cody looking at me.

"C-cody? Hi..do you need anything? "  I asked, awkwardly.

"No, Morena. I saw you. You came out of my brother's room. Tell me, did something happen between the two of you?" Cody asked smirking, looking at her from head to foot.

"Cody! How dare you ask me that! Sure, I came out of your brother's room at this hour! But that doesn't mean something happened!" I said defensively.

"Oh, please Morena! I know you well. Please...my brother is broken hearted. I hope you know where you stand. If my brother chose to man up for you, that's only because he is a real gentleman to do that...trust me.." and with that he walked away as I went inside the room and weakly sat on the bed as soon as I got in.
