Bachelor

Participation

Jason: A theme every night for this last week.

Ren: Intimate ones I presume.

Jason: Correct.

Sarah: Are you immune to this?...

Ren: No, it just takes a second.

Sarah: Tomboy...

Insulting is getting old.

Jason: Today is, who can kiss me first?

He walked out onto the deck to the pool. Taking off his shirt he winked our way before getting in.

Beth: That's my cue...

Sarah: Um, no it's gonna be me...

As they started to fight, rolling over couches and pulling hair. I poured another glass of champagne before drinking it. Looking over, Jason was glancing at me as it kicked in.

I pray for the wicked on the weekend.

My jacket slipped off.

Mama, can I get another amen.

Hair tie pulled out.

Oh, Oh, Oh.

As my feet patted down the steps.

It's Saturday night.

Unbuttoning my shirt.

Tell God I ain't never gonna repent.

Slipping off my pants.

Mama, can I get another amen.

I stepped into the pool letting myself sink down before coming back up.

Jason: Ren?

Combing my hair back I said.

Ren: Thanks for that.

The cold water cleared my head a bit. I underestimated that drug, but the few seconds was enough.

Jason: You seemed determined.

Ren: I always do.

Beth: What was that...

Sarah: Its like you had tunnel vision...

Well that's a surprise.

Ren: I blank out into my surroundings.

Beth: So you didn't know that we already kissed him...

Sarah: Deeply...

Just realizing they were in the pool I dipped my head.

Ren: I don't need competitions.

I say walking out, squeezing my hair dry. Grabbing a towel, in my peripheral they were all over him. Lips and all, I'm not antisocial I just don't need him.

But I want him.

Of course you do desire, that's your job. Sitting on the couch, I turned on the tv to see Arrow playing.

Ren: This works.

The trio came back in saying.

Jason: Were heading to the back.

Beth: Care to join?...

Sarah: We don't judge...

Ren: That's alright.

Jason: Ok, suit yourself.

There it is, that bachelor mentality is exactly why I don't participate. He loves the thrill of the one night stands, no commitment. Let's be honest how many successful couples has he had? As the bedroom door closed, I plugged my headphones in searching the guest room for some clothes.

Troy: Hello.

I jumped as he appeared behind me, with a bag of clothes at that.

Troy: Your welcome.

Ren: Don't appear behind me like that.

Troy: So, how'd it go?

He said nudging me, I don't think I have the patience right now.
