Once Bitten

Chapter 7

I'd love to say that something happened after that night, but I'd be a liar. I'm already a coward. As soon as I woke up Saturday morning, I got my things and left for home. It was for the best. As I was leaving, I heard noises coming from Kyle's room.

I brushed it off as porn or something, but no. Mary walked out of his room before I got to the stairs.

She said," Oh ! Hi Megan, I didn't know anyone else was home."

When I turned to look at her, I saw what she had on........ or didn't have on. I felt myself blush and waved as I ran out the house. I wasn't blushing at her almost nudity and evidence of what they'd been doing like I usually would. I felt my cheeks heat up in astounding anger. I knew Kyle was just playing me, but damn couldn't he have waited until I got out the house.

I really like Mary, I met her a little after Kyle and Ryan got to high school. Mary and the boys have been really good friends since freshman year. Then, their junior year, Mary started staying nights after the parties and would leave early in the morning while everyone was still sleeping. When Reese and I would talk to her, she told us she hated all of Kyle's girlfriends. We knew she liked him. We thought he knew and just didn't care.

So I wasn't exactly surprised that she was here, just my mind was on what happened between Kyle and I last night. How different things could have gone, and when I saw her I was reminded of how stupid I'd been. Why would he be serious about me even physically, when he has someone like Mary waiting for him?

Her hair isn't as long as mine, falling just below her shoulders, but it's a really pretty shade of brown, like chocolate. Standing tall at 5'7, with full hips and DDs, she was basically perfect. She's the captain of our school's cheerleading team, and even asked me to tryout. She doesn't breakout, ever, and her face is blemish free. No signs of acne or anything like that. With skin the color of light brown sugar, she's sweet,confident, beautiful, and everything I wish I could be. So yeah, I ran.

When I got home mom asked me why I was back so early, I made some excuse up about not feeling well. I've been trying to call and text Reese ever since, and she hasn't been responding. I've been so lonely and  depressed in my room waiting for days to end and that night to fade away.

But now it's Monday morning and it's time for school. It's the last week and I should be excited but I can't. Not knowing I'm gonna end up seeing Kyle today. Usually, Jonathan would pick me up for school, but since we broke up I'll probably have to ask mom to take me. It only takes me about 30 minutes total to get ready for school, after I decide what to wear.

Seeing as it's the last week of school and I've got no one to impress, I'll just keep it simple. Gray skinny jeans, my tazmanian devil graphic tee( because he's sexy), brown suspenders, gray fedora, and brown boots. My hair lightly curled, no make up is just how I like it.

I hear someone knock on the door. " Come in".

" Hi sweetie," my mom says coming in and sitting on my bed. " Are you ready for school? Do you still need a ride?"

I walk out of my restroom, put on my shoes, grab my bookbag, and check my phone. I see that I got a text from Ryan.

Hey little sis. Tell your sexy mama I said hello, and that I will be escorting you too and from school. I'm outside.

" Yep, I'm ready. And no I don't need a ride. Ryan is here and he says he's got me today."

I follow my mom out my room, and we wish each other good days and all that stuff. She walks me to the door. Before I leave, she leans in and kisses me on the cheek." I love you, sweetheart. Be good."

I turn around, and back to her," Love you too, ma. Oh, and Ryan says hi." When I get to Ryan's car, he gets out and waves to my mom, then comes and hugs me.
