9 - Confusion

There's a million reasons for not updating but I'm back with a teaser for those that are still reading. I plan to be more consistent with my writing on this app and beyond.

I woke up with a headache.

"Fuck" I mumbled to myself as I tried to open my eyes.

I tried to lift myself up but my body felt heavy, as I turned to move I felt something beside me; almost as if somebody was in bed with me.

"What the fuck" I groaned, feeling disorientated.

For a second, I thought it was Candice but I logically reminded myself that I'm not at home. That's what forced me to open my eyes.

Burning... is the sensation I felt as I pried my eyes open, and settled on golden curly hair that was wildly spread out, covering the light blue pillow case.

Bewildered and completely confused, I used all the energy I had to jump out of that bed, banging my foot in the process. I just didn't understand. I didn't get how I had woken up in a bed next to Simone. My head was pounding, and heart was beating rapidly as I staggered towards the door.

I couldn't have done this shit, I told myself. I don't remember this shit.

I made my way to the bathroom, trying to recollect my thoughts. I tried to think about everything that transpired last night but my mind was blank.

The last thing I remembered was Simone showing me to the guest room. We were having a conversation, but somehow my mind couldn't come up with the words we said to each other.

How fucked up was I last night?

I didn't remember having any alcohol. I was conscious of staying alert, so I'm not sure how I fucked up. I stuck to cool aid that Simone made and the water that was in my room. I looked away when my eyes naturally roamed that woman's body. I headed to bed as soon as my son fell asleep. I tried to do everything right but I failed.

I failed Candice.

I didn't realise how caught up in my thoughts I was until I felt a tear slide down my face; making this the first time I remember allowing myself to cry. A grown man crying in the bathroom, with his head in his hands and his dick hanging low in shame.
