Kara and I were at the beach all day and once it started getting dark, a few more friends showed up. We had a rather large group of friends, she and I. Some were with their boyfriends and some were there solo. A few brought alcohol and food. We were having a bonfire and planned to spend the night, right there on the beach.
I was sitting on a towel in front of the fire, trying to stay warm. I chose to stick to water that night, although I'm not exactly sure why. Eric was sitting next to me, making me laugh, just like he used to. He told me that it felt like old times. Fall Out Boy was playing in the background and some of the girls were already dancing and laughing.
Eric and I had been friends for years and I admit, he was looking hot lately. He had always been so sweet and friendly to me, but in the past year, things changed. He grew more distant and cold toward me.
It all started the night when we all went out together. It wasn't a date or anything, I mean, I was with a group of friends and so was he. He was flirting with me extra hard that night, but that was until I met Jared. He was also there that night, and while I knew of him, I didn't know much about him.
He started talking to me and after a few shots of liquid courage, I left with him. I mean he was so sexy and I loved the way he talked to me. He was flirting, but in a different way than Eric. His voice had a certain ring of authority to it and when you add in the sarcasm, I was hooked. He took me to his house where he showed me things that I knew nothing about. He introduced me to a side of myself that I didn't even know existed. God, the things that I let that man do to me...
Kara was extremely worried about me and when I finally surfaced the following day, my body was covered in love bites and sore as hell. He was so dominant and bossy, and I enjoyed every second of it. My friends didn't like him because when he would call or text, I would immediately stop what I was doing and go to him.
This didn't sit well with them and they let me know they didn't approve. They also noticed a change in my personality, I was more reckless and carefree, or so I was told. They lectured me constantly, and our once rock solid friendship, began to show cracks.
The past year had been crazy with his short calls and texts, asking me to meet him somewhere or even at home. It would usually start with me dropping everything and running to him, no questions asked. It always moved on to his spanking or teasing me mercilessly and ended with me being bent over the nearest surface as he fucked the life out of me.
I had never spent an entire night with him and we never shared any emotions with each other. We were friendly and sometimes talked, but even that was only from time to time. It was strictly sexual and even though I craved more of him, I resisted asking for it. Months had gone by since I last saw him. It hurt in a way that he hadn't called or text me in so long, but I knew I couldn't stay angry with him.
Eric got up and grabbed two beers, handing one to me. "I'm not drinking tonight." I picked up my water holding it up to him. "See."
"But we're here to have a good time. Alcohol always makes things more fun." He leaned back and finished his beer. "Come on Cassie, live a little."
Seeing my phone light up on the towel next to me, I picked it up. My mouth went dry reading his text.
'мєєт мє αт му ρℓα¢є ιи 15'
Frowning, I sent one right back to him.
'ι'м αт тhє вєα¢h ωιтh му fяιєи∂ѕ. ι hανєи'т hєαя∂ fяσм уσυ ιи мσитhѕ, уσυ ¢αи'т єxρє¢т мє тσ ∂яσρ єνєяутhιиg αи∂ ℓєανє ʝυѕт вє¢αυѕє уσυ тєxт мє.'
Not even five seconds later I received another.
'иσ αяgυмєитѕ ¢αѕѕιє. 15 мιиυтєѕ.'
I glanced at Eric and smiled. "I'm sorry...... but I need to leave. I picked up my bag, towel, and keys as I walked toward my car.
He shook his head. "You're still allowing him to dictate what you do I see." I could hear the anger in his voice. "He doesn't even care about you." He got louder alerting Kara and my other friends. Of course, they came running over to see what was happening and all stood behind Eric.
"What the hell Cass? You haven't heard shit from his ass in months and now he texts you, so you're going to run to him? He's got you exactly where he wants you!" Kara raised her voice, clearly pissed off at me.
"None of you understand." I turned and walked to my car. Kara ran behind me.
"Can't you see that he's using you?"
Part of me knew that everything she said was the truth, but I accepted him and the way things were between us a long time ago.
Opening the back door and tossing my bag inside, I slammed it shut. "I'm sorry Kara, I've got to go."
She turned and walked away shaking her head. I started the car and drove in the direction of his house. He said 15 minutes, but he had to know that I was at least a half hour away. I tried not to speed and to stay calm, but that dark secret submissive side that's been hidden so deep inside of me, was dying to come out. It only took a simple text to awaken it.
