A New Easton

Unwanted Truth

It's been a week since the bar and I was just pulling in my driveway. I had just finished work.

Once I have my car parked, I make my way to my front doorstep to unlock the door.

Once inside my gaze is fixated on the woman standing in the hall to my left.

"What are you doing here Sophie," I ask. She avoids eye contact as she looks down.

A low voice then speaks up behind me, "So this the guy who fucked you behind my back?" Anger boils up inside my chest.

"You lying bitch!" I yell, causing Sophie to flinch. I turn around to see the man who had just spoken sitting on my couch.

His features are familiar, same brown eyes, same stubble and smooth dark hair that I know I've seen before.

I know he recognizes me too as his expression tells me that he is shocked. The look turns to a smirk in a matter of seconds.

My heart drops. No!

"Babe, I think I need a word with him if that's okay," Carter says. Sophie nods as she pulls a cigarette out of her purse. She opens the sliding back door and shuts it behind her as she walks to the edge of the balcony.

"What the fuck!? " I question angrily as I stare into him coldly.

"I was with her for three years until I found out she cheated on me," I pause, "and turns out, With the guy who raped me," Carter chuckles.

He stands up and steps behind me.
I feel hands groping my ass.

"Stop," I scowl. Carter's lips are now pressed against my neck.

"I'll do what I please," He growls, his lips just below my ear, "You got my number right?" I grit my teeth as he bites my neck. My skin between his teeth.

"I told you I don't like men in a sexual way," I grunt as he sucks on my neck.

"I think I can change that," He breathes into my ear, "I'll make you beg for me," he says as he squeezes my ass with both hands.

"Fuck you," I mutter. He takes one hand and places is over my neck. His fingers press hard against my skin.

He presses his lips against mine roughly. His teeth pull at my bottom lip. My face flushes as his tongue pushes my lips apart, to make way through them. I freeze. PUSH HIM AWAY!!! The voice in my head shouts.

Suddenly, Carter stops and shoves me backwards. I am confused until I hear the sliding glass door open. Sophie steps inside and the smell of cigarette smoke wafts in with her.

"You stay away from Sophie, alright?" Carter says to me, I scoff at him. Nice act

"Whatever. Why don't you both do me a favor and get the fuck out of my house," I say as I glare at them both.

I watch them walk out. Carter looks at me and mouths call me as he closes the door behind him.

That night I laid in bed staring at my phone contemplating whether or not I should give Carter a call

I sigh as I press the green phone button which then has his number dialing. He picks up on the second ring.

"Look who's calling," Carter said, I could hear his smirk through the phone.

"How did..." I say as I'm cut off by his chuckling.

"Why don't you come over," He suggests.

"Why the fuck would I want to come and see you," I say, already feeling frustrated.

"I know you've decided to call for a reason. I can make you forget about Sophie. I can make you feel good." I couldn't fight the voice in my head telling me that i secretly wanted him.

"I don't need you to make me feel better. I want to know how long you've been with Sophia. What did you do to her. I.. I know her. " I pause. I feel like a bitch as my eyes water, tears emerging. "S-she.. She was mine. I know she wouldn't do that to me." I sigh as I wipe away a stray tear rolling down my cheek.

"Why don't you come and keep me company." Carter says in a soft tone.
