It's Always Been Briar

Chapter 6.

River's P.O.V.

I get home from lifting and bust through my bedroom door while screaming for Lenny. I slam the door and look around for her. Where is she?

'Lenny!' I yell.

'In here, Riv.' I hear her sweet little voice coming through the slightly open bathroom door. So I walk into my bathroom and find Lenny in a super steamy, bubbly bubble bath. It looks like she brushed out her hair and her face looks a little better.

'Lookin good babe. But didn't I tell you to wait to take a bath until I got home to clean the tub?!' I go over to my sink and sit on the countertop so I can talk with Lenny while she soaks.

'Riv, I fuckin sprayed the tub down with bleach and scrubbed it with that long-handled scrub brush thing in the closet. It took 2 seconds and I wanted to take a bubble bath. But I don't think you came busting into your room, yelling for me, to talk about the bathtub. What's up?'

She is not wrong, I didn't come in here to talk about the fucking bathtub that I painted with cum. But I have no idea what to say, so I just say:

'Briar Kensington'.

Lenny stops playing with the bubbles and looks at me. She raises one eyebrow and simply says 'And?'

And what?!?

And I am so fucking hard because I saw her looking gorgeous as fuck in the weight room?!

And it's only been like 10 mins since I saw her but I'm already fucking obsessed?!

And she is the only girl I can honestly say I'm attracted to?!

And she's who I've compared every girl that I've slept with to?!

Nope, I can't say any of that, so I tell her. 'She came into the weight room after lifting tonight, looking gorgeous as ever. Why would she come to the stadium looking for Coach? Are you two still close?'

Fuck, my heart is going a million miles a minute. Did someone replace my pre-workout with speed?!

I am sweating.

Answer the questions, Lenyx!!!

Ugh.

'Yes, Riv, we are still close. We are actually really close. It helps that William is with Ronie. Anyways, she was probably there to drop off her paperwork to Coach since pre-season starts next week.'

'Why would she have paperwork for Coach?' I don't understand this at all. Why was she there?! I'm not complaining that I saw her, but now I want to see her all the time.

'Well, QB, she is going to be the team's videographer this season. So you are going to be seeing a lot of her until the season is over.' Lenny says with a little bit of sass.

Ok, that's fucking awesome. I will get to see her almost every day. That makes me happy but the weird look Lenny is now giving me is making me kinda nervous.

'What?' I ask her.

'What is with the sudden interest in Briar? When was the last time you even saw her before today?'

Ok, I don't know why Lenny is being so sassy but it's really making me nervous. Really nervous. I think for a second.

'Ok, so I can't remember the last time I saw her. Maybe when we all first came to USC? Fuck, I don't know Lenny. I was surprised when she walked in. I asked Tony just to make sure it was Briar in front of me. I knew it was her because all these things started rushing back to me.'

Not to mention, I've been steel hard since her perfect self walked back into my life this evening.

Lenny smirks at me and asks. 'What are these things?'
