And Peggy

47

I pushed away from John. I stared up at his green eyes. I felt like crying. What have I done? First I crush on one of my best friends who is dating my sister and ex, and now I make out with my gay ex in his car while trying to help my best friend after telling my girlfriend I would never cheat on her with him? Maybe I deserved that rumor. Maybe I deserved what Levi did. Maybe I didn't deserve Cornelia's help.

John stared back at me. "Peggy. I-"

I turn away from him. "John, it's not your fault. Just drive."

"Okay." He turned the key and started off towards his house. I stared out the window the entire ride. When we got there, John looked at me and sighed. "Peggy, come on. It's fine." He rubbed circles on my back.

I pushed his arm away. I quickly glanced at him before walking inside. I went up to John's room.

"You're finally back!" Alex shouted. "Where's John?"

"He's coming." I turned to Sally. She was asleep. "I guess we didn't need to get the milk."

"Yeah she zoned out a while ago." Maria said. "Speaking of which, why did you guys take so long?"

"Hey guys." John said walking in.

I looked back at him. Then to Alex. Then to Maria. "I'm so sorry." I was crying, and I couldn't stop.

Maria got up and wrapped her arms around me. "For what, babes? You didn't do anything."

"Yes I did." I buried my head in her kneck.

"Sh. It's okay."

"No it's not."

"I'm sure it's not that bad, babes."

"I'm a slut." I muttered.

She pushed away. "What?"

I lifted my head to meet her gaze. "I'm a slut."

"Peggy, you are not a slut."

"Yes I am. I made out with two boys I shouldn't have within a few hours. I cheated on you, Maria. I'm a slut."

"Who could you possibly have made out with that you shouldn't have?"

I just stood there crying.

"Me." Alex sighed.

"And me." John said hesitantly.

"You think I'm worried about those two idiots?"

"Hey!" The both said simultaneously.

"Well yeah-" I started.

"Peggy, it's fine. You aren't a slut. I mean Alex is polyamorous, and John is gay. They really don't mean anything."

"You mean you're not mad at me?"

"Why would I ever get mad at you?" She pulled me close and kissed my head. "I love you, Peggy."

I lifted my head up. "I love you too, Maria." I smiled before kissing her.

"Aw!" John said.

"Oh shut up, gay boy! Your kinky ass made me make out with you!" I said turning over to him.

"What?" Eliza asked laughing.

"John misses me and still loves me."

"Peggy!"

"You fucking kissed me first! I kissed you the second time because you're one of my best friends and I wanted you to be happy."

"Dayum." Alex said.

"Oh shut up, Lex." John punched Alex's arm.

"Jackie, please. That's fucking hysterical."

"Stop making fun of me!"

"I'm not making fun of you!"

"Yes you are!"

"Kinky, Slut, can you fight elsewhere?" I said.

"You're one to slut shame!" Alex said.

"According to my girlfriend and, actually, you too, I'm not a slut. You on the other hand-"

"Fuck you too." He wants to.

What the actual fuck is this story anymore? Holy fuck.
