Chapter 9

"Cereal"

I decide to go grocery shopping after taking a shower.

I walk down the cereal aisle and look at the cereal they have.

"If I was you, I would choose frosted flakes," a girl's voice said.

I turn to see a girl with wavy, blonde hair and glasses standing next to me. She looks quite adorable.

I ignore her and go back to looking at cereal.

"Hey wanna be friends?" she said.

"No thanks."

She pouts. "Why not?"

"I don't need friends," I said picking out my cereal. Fruit loops.

"What if we have sex?"

I look at her and ponder. "Nah, I think I'm gay."

Her jaw drops. "You're not straight?"

"Yeah, I'm queer. Recently found out."

"Wow, what's that like?"

I shrug. "Nothing much."

I walk away and she follows me.

"Are you gay, gay? Like a bottom?" she said.

"I don't think you get more gay than gay."

"Well, everyone seems to look at bottoms as the gayer ones."

I sigh and go down the snack aisle.

"You know I'm a bottom myself," she said.

"Hooray," I mock.

"Yeah, found out after this guy I met. He was quite mysterious."

My brow raises and I glance at her. "Same."

Her eyes sparkle. "Did you go to his place also?"

I shrug. "Yes. After we met."

"An apartment about this big and well-kept," she said stretching out her arms.

"Yes..."

She smiles. "We fucked the same guy."

The fuck?

She's a prostitute?

How does having sex with him make her a bottom?

Well, aren't women bottoms by default?

"Hey, I bet you don't know anything about him yet," she said.

"Of course not."

She laughs. "Wanna find out?"

Find out more about him. I never thought about that. I know he has to have a job somewhere or else he couldn't be able to pay me so much cash. But anything else about him I have no clue. Well, except for sex...

Do I wanna find out more?

"Yes."

She grabs my hand. "Well, follow me."
