Dahlia

The Letter

      Today, I brought Val to my house. I feel horrible about... sleeping with Oliver. I feel disgusting. I also felt like it's time for him to get a feel of my family.

"Your house looks exactly like the pictures!" He remarked as we pulled up.

"You really are dumb, aren't you?" I joked.

"Suka." He silently remarked. I just swatted him on the shoulder before parking in my garage. We got out and entered my house. My bird called me a bitch, as usual, thanks Jared.

"Did the bird just call you a bitch!" Val laughed.

"Yup, Jared taught it that." I laughed a little. I offered him to sit down.

"I wanna see your room." He asked.

"Nope. Off limits." I replied.

"What? You afraid I'll finally win you over in there?" He joked. I just kinda stayed quiet, "you okay?"

"Val...I need to tell you something." I said as I sat down next to him.

"Hm?"

"My ex came by the other day to bring me flowers... him and Jared were hanging out before he died, just to talk shit about me to be honest." I laughed a little, "But...I slept with him. We got drunk, we kissed and it lead to that and I feel disgusting about it. I betrayed Jared... and you. You were waiting for me and I still slept with someone else before I have even kissed you." I began to cry.

"Karma..." he quietly said.

"I'm so sorry... I didn't even know it was going to end up like that. Val, I love you, I know I do, please forgive me." I replied as I sobbed. I hugged onto him, and he gasped a little.

"Karma... it's alright." He softly said after hesitating, beginning to rub my upper back.

"No, it's not! This whole time, even the thought about sex was killing me! I can't even imagine doing it with someone other than Jared and here I am fucking my ex boyfriend from highschool!" I yelled.

"Karma, I do not care what you do, it's your life! Yes, I'm a bit hurt, but we aren't dating! I know you're in more pain than I can ever imagine, you haven't been acting like yourself, Karma. But it's alright, I like you." He told me. I just hugged him tighter as he hugged back.

"You know...this is the first time we've ever hugged." He told me. I just kept sniffling and wiping my tears away. But then I sat up, and then he grabbed my hand.

"Karma, I wasn't joking. I really do like you." He said. Jeez, he's a yapper. It's cute.

"I know... it just feels wrong..." I replied. I was sitting in between his legs, facing him as he held both of my hands.

"Yes, I know. But, I'll wait for you." He told me. I couldn't help it. My tears were streaming down my face, and I hugged him again. This time, I knocked him down and hugged him, basically laying on him. He was surprised.

"Karma...may I kiss you?" He asked me, moving my hair from my face.

"Val... no. I'm sorry..." I replied. He just sighed, and I got off of him. Luckily just in time though, because my dad came home with my aunt and Vincent.

"I could be walking around here naked and you'd still just barge in!" I said to my dad.

"Who you got there?" He asked.

"It's Val." I replied.

"Hello!" He said to my dad.

"Hey! I've been wanting to meet you." My dad replied.
