Taylor

"Ai my head," I said clenching my forehead while slowly bobbing up my head from my pillow.

"Bout time you woke up," I saw Jerry standing at the end of the bed.

"I'm still here?" I gawked & looked across me to see a body covered by the duvet.

"Who's that?" I asked Jerry.

"It's that guy you were hanging with, not to mention banging, all night long. Julio said his name was," Jerry took a puff from his cigarette as he tried to remember, "Jake."

Oh shit.

"It can't be him," I gasped, "he has a girlfriend."

"So? You always sleep with guys with girlfriends. You slept with me while I was Polly what's the issue?" he asked.

"I actually respect this guy. Like I really do. I just gave him those drinks because I wanted to see him in his element. I didn't wanna take it this far," I shook my head.

"What's the deal? Where did you even find this guy?" he asked.

"Okay I'm gonna tell you a secret but you swear you won't tell a soul," I pointed my finger at him.

"Gimme a kiss first then I'll promise," he smirked.

Typical Jerry being the natural born man whore falsely huge baller he is.

"Ugh," I sighed & signalled for him to come to my side of the bed.

He put his cigarette out on the nightstand beside him & I grabbed him & kissed him like it was my last kiss.

He pulled away & looked down at me.

"Now I promise," a smile crept upon his face.

"Okay," I brought my voice down to a whisper, "I've been going to church. Jake is actually Nash. An assistant priest at Holy Kingdom Chapel. He helped me through some stuff & I just wanted him to have fun & loosen up. The thing is this guy is the first person to respect me. & I sorta respect him I guess so I feel bad for what I did."

"Wow Tay," Jerry gawked & Nash began to wake.

"Oh shit," I jumped out of bed covered myself with a towel on the floor.

"Where am-ow," Nash slugged as he held his forehead, "my head."

"I'll go get you some painkillers," Jerry nodded & left us alone.

"What happened last night? Why are you in a towel?" Nash asked as he sat up, "& why am I naked?"

He gawked & grabbed his boxers from the floor. He slipped them on under the covers & stood up.

"Um Nash," I muttered.

"Yes Taylor?" he asked. God he was looking so innocent & ignorant. He just couldn't piece together last night's activities.

"We. We," I stuttered & finally sighed, "slept together. But I didn't mean it to happen. I think maybe the drinks were a bit too mu-"

"Drinks?" he started to panic.

"Yeah," I looked around, "I gave you drinks to relax & loosen up & I guess I took it too far."

"Yeah you definitely did. I really hope you're proud of yourself Taylor," he grabbed his clothes & started putting them on.

"Nash please," I begged but he just looked at me & started heading for the door.

"Hey I got your painkillers," Jerry followed behind Nash.

"Thanks," Nash snatched them out of Jerry's hands & left.

Shit.
