Decided By Fate (Preview)

Act 1, Chapter 9

The passion that filled the moment between us, two barely clothed girls in the hot tub, only made everything hotter. As much as I wanted the boy of my dreams, my best friend was making an equally tempting offer. Yet, I wondered if it was due to the foreign influences running wild in our bodies. Now completely pinned against the side of the tub, I let out a few heavy breaths as Morgan started talking.

"So I assume it's obvious that I'm...into girls." She admitted.

"Yeah, I think I gathered as much," I whispered back.

Testing her, I tried to move my arms, but Morgan maintained constant pressure on my wrists, stopping any movement that might help me escape.

"Look, Fate, I just want to be real with you. I'm not drunk, maybe a little high, but I know what I'm doing, and please don't laugh, but like you're craving that boy, I've had a craving for a girl that I hadn't seen in ages until tonight." Morgan confessed.

"Morgan, you don't have to-"

"If you want me to stop, just say so; I can handle a broken heart. It's just- I thought since we both weren't in a relationship, I could at least have my first kiss be with you. However, I understand if you want to save that for Max." She continued, clearly not wanting me to speak until she said everything she needed to.

Still trapped beneath her, I continued to look into the sexually charged eyes of my best friend. Only I saw a look of retreat and fear as the reality of this situation was currently present between us. It was true that I might be in a relationship that was only a few minutes old, but I didn't know for sure. I wouldn't have called what we were about to do cheating, as my smirk assured the girl on top of me.

"I, Morgan, I- don't stop...please," I told her.

"So you want me to kiss you?" She asked.

"Yea. I won't tell Max; he'll think it's a first for both of us, but I'd like to at least have some practice if you know what I mean." I replied, which lifted some of the tension from the situation.

"Wow. I- Fate, are you sure?" She asked for a final time.

I nodded again, we didn't need words, since we were ready to commit to whatever happened between us. Closing my eyes, it was up to Morgan now whether she would take the opportunity or not. Morgan didn't seem to expect the response that I gave her. Likely just wanting to try and scare me more than anything, I handed her this opportunity like an early birthday present. Her grip on my wrists started to loosen, allowing me to move them again.

Another moment passed as Morgan continued to look at me, then placed one of her soft hands on my cheek. Brushing it slightly, I felt the hair on my face move to the side. This is it, Morgan; go for the kill. The thought ran through my head, and likely Morgan's as well. I could feel her shifting again, and then her breath teased my face. She was getting close to me until her lips finally pressed against mine. I didn't know what I expected when it happened. My body filled with excitement, passion, ecstasy, and every emotion that a fulfilled sexual urge brought.

On the other side of the kiss, I didn't fight it in the slightest. I came to the conclusion that the kiss was Morgan's plan all along and the reason that I was invited. The problem I had with Max never mattered to her. Morgan was going to make this move on me whether I needed her help or not. Savouring the moment, the strawberry lip gloss that Morgan had freshly put on coated my lips, making this feel even more planned. I enjoyed every moment of it and the taste of my best friend. Then, inevitably, Morgan started to pull away, thinking the quick peck was enough, but something in me was calling out. Wrapping my arms around Morgan's upper half, I pulled her close and kissed her again, this time more passionately than the first.
