Carter

Chapter III

April 7th 2017
11:34 a.m.

I got home and he was still in bed. I wanted to wake him up and take him out, but I felt like it was better to just leave him alone. He's changed a lot. He doesn't wanna go out with friends anymore or do anything else for that matter. I miss the old Mason. The one who would spend the entire day with the people he loved. But the person he loved the most was Maya. And she's gone. I just left him in bed and sat down on my couch. For once I felt kind of calm. I knew Carter was locked up and he won't be hurting anyone anymore. I turned on the TV and was already about to pass out. But I was woken up by a knock on my door. "Henry are you there?" Daisy? I opened the door and it was her. "Uh... Hey." I felt kind of awkward. I didn't know what to say. Especially after I kinda lashed out on her. "I just wanted to check on you"
"Oh. I'm good. Thanks."
"I wanted to apologize too. I know that these past months have been terrible for you and I wasn't really being considerate." Damn, now I feel bad. "It's ok. Really. Come in. sit down" She came in and we just talked. Talked about everything. For the first time in a while I really let go and poured out my heart. And so did she. At this point I never realized the beautiful woman she's grown up into. I remember the day we met like it was yesterday. Lunch time in 2nd grade. I dropped my sandwich and I was crying like a little bitch. She came up to me, gave me a hug, and shared half of her sandwich with me. And from that day forward we became best friends. Nothing more. I don't know if it's the feeling of emptiness that was just pleading to be filled or lust, but I was starting to really be attracted to her. And with the way she was looking at me, I could tell the feeling was mutual. We both leaned in for a kiss. One thing led to another and we took the action to my room where we fucked. And it was probably the best sex I ever had. I loved it. The way she felt against me. Her gorgeous curvature and warm welcoming eyes staring directly at as it's happening. It was phenomenal. Afterwards we just layed there in bed. Thinking about what the fuck just happened. But smiling like idiots too. I heard Mason's bedrooms door open so I told Daisy to put her clothes on quickly. I put on mine and rushed out to wish him a happy birthday, but he vanished. I then noticed Maya's bedroom door was open. He just sat down on her bed. Holding her favorite stuffed animal. I walked in. "Hey, champ. Happy birthday." I said to him. He just looked at the stuffed animal. "Y'know, it's not too late to get that IHOP."
"I don't wanna go anymore." he said back to me. I didn't know what to do or what to say. "I miss her too, Mason. Both of them."
"Was that why you were in bed with your doctor friend?" Shit.
"Sorry dad, I just... I just want her back."
"I know, Mason. So do I". And with that said, I stared reminiscing on my fast few days with her.
