I was in Amare's room, pacing back and forth like Kayla was after I did her ass in....
I need to stop being petty.
My head was spinning, my body still buzzing from the alcohol, and all I could think about was her Kiera. The kiss, the way she felt pressed up against me, the way she kissed me like she needed me. I couldn't shake it. It was like her lips branded my fucking skin.
"Yo, you good?" Amare asked, eyes narrowed at me from where she was laid up on the bed.
I glanced at her, but I couldn't focus. I was fucked in the head. "Nah, Mari, I'm not good. I fucked up."
Amare sat up, folding her arms. "Bitch, I know. I was right there when y'all was tongue down right there. Don't act like I didn't see what the fuck happened."
I rolled my eyes, throwing my hands up. "I'm serious, though. Kayson don't deserve this shit. What the fuck am I supposed to do?"
Amare snorted, pulling a half smile. "Girl, if you ain't get caught, you don't need to be trippin' like this. Quit playing. Forget it."
I couldn't forget it. I couldn't forget the way Kiera's lips felt on mine, like fire on ice. I couldn't forget how she pulled me closer, making my heart race in a way Kayson never had. Fuck, I could still feel the heat between us.
"Forget it? I can't forget it. I got these damn hickeys on my neck, Mari! How the fuck am I supposed to forget that?" I snapped, grabbing the collar of my shirt and pulling it down, showing her the marks on my skin.
She laughed, her eyes twinkling like she didn't take shit seriously. "Did you even like the kiss?"
I froze, biting my lip. Fuck. "Yeah... I liked it."
Her grin got wider, like she knew exactly where I was going with this. "Better than Kayson?"
I blinked, my stomach dropping. "Don't ask me that," I said, trying to keep my voice steady. But deep down, I knew the answer. I knew. And it hurt like a motherfucker to admit it.
Amare leaned forward, her eyes practically daring me to say it. "C'mon. You can't lie to me. Was it better than Kayson?"
I didn't answer right away. The words were stuck in my throat, but they were there. I could taste them. "...Yeah," I said, barely above a whisper.
