KATANA

"Tell me." Jason said softly.

I made no eye contact with him, "Tell you what, Jason?"

"Tell me everything, Katana. Tell me what I need to do."

"Did you fuck her?"

"What?" He asked in disbelief.

"You know what, Jase. When you went out with her."

Jason was quiet for a second before he said anything. "Tana, no! Of course not. You know that. I didn't even want to go on a date with her in the first place. Remember?"

"Then why did you do it?" I turned to look at him. He looked flushed and unrested.

"If you haven't noticed it by now, I'd do anything for you."

"But you went anyway, didn't you?"

"Kuma, C'mon."

"I just don't believe you at all. We weren't even a thing then." I stared back into the ocean.

"I got her drunk on purpose so she would be the one to fuck up on that date. It worked. Once that place turned into a club, she went home with some random guy."

I turned my head back at him, "You really are an asshole." I turned my head back around so he wouldn't see me laughing.

He gestured his hands out with a tired voice, "I. Did. Not. Want. To. Be. There. With. Her!"

"Maybe some other whore who you can buy"

"Katana, stop." He begged.

I kept going, "Maybe if I was as sleezy as Sabrina, you would have fucked me sooner, right?"

"Katana, that's not true." His voice started to crack.

"I've tried to throw myself at you so many times, and you pushed me away."

"I didn't want to physically hurt you, Katana."

"My parents house especially. What was that? You just playing with my heart? You make out with me, getting us both hot and bothered, ask me to stay in the room with you, using Rhonda and Sam as a perfect excuse. When you got me in your bed that night, you did nothing. You didn't want me."

"I'm not gonna fuck you for your first time in your parents house, Katana!"

I laughed, "What I do with my body is my business."

His voice cleared up, "Oh, so I'm supposed to just let you throw yourself at other dudes that only want to fuck you, not knowing you're a virgin? Let you just get fucked over by a nut-fucktard like Sebastian? Is that what you always wanted?"

I looked Jason in the eyes, "Wait! What the hell did you just say?"

"Sebastian"

"No. The other thing."

He closed his eyes and cursed under his breath at the sky, "Fuck."

"How the hell did you know, Jason?" I was livid.

"Tana. Remember I had a secret about you that I promised your brothers I wouldn't say thing?"

"A secret not to tell? What are you, ten?"

Jason looked away from me and stared into the ocean. I continued, "Well, now you can go and not worry about hurting my feelings or my body. You can go and screw whoever you like that isn't a virgin for as long as I've been. Just.. go! You're free of me."

"Katana.."

I turned around and stared out into the ocean horizon in a daze. More tears fell from my eyes.
"Just leave."
