Broken // Carter and Nani

I knew this was wrong. I couldn't just take advantage of Carter this way. I threw my bra and shorts back on as I watched her wipe away at her ruined mascara. Her clothes hung off of her body and she looked plain ruined. Sighing, I sat back on the bed and covered my face. Was I that hungry for sex that I had to try to fuck her knowing that she wasn't ready? It was about 3 inches away from rape because the first time she said "no" I didn't actually stop.

The sound of her voice broke me out of my thoughts. "I'm sorry, Nani."

I looked down into her innocent face and brushed her tight curls away so that I could see her eyes. "No need to apologize, beautiful."

She blushed and looked away from my gaze. "So where do we go from here?" she whispered.

I grabbed her hand and turned on some soft music, leading her to the center of my bedroom. I wrapped my arms around her body and gently rocked back and forth with her. I wanted to make her feel good and I felt ashamed that I thought sex would be the only way to do that. Carter had been through alot of shit in the past few months and each time something happened, I was the one she came to. I'd comfort her as best as possible without coming onto her. I guess today I just lost it. Her troubles began with her mother dying, and then she lost her job. I helped her through all of that. The final straw was when her boyfriend of 10 years broke up with her. I had never seen Carter so broken in all of my years of knowing her. I began to feel something wet against my neck. I looked down to see her face buried into it, crying. Picking her up, I sat back on the bed with her in my lap, rubbing her back.

"Carter, he didn't deserve you."

That was the corniest line ever but it was true. He didn't deserve her. I did. And this day marks the beginning of my journey to win her heart.
