Too Fast For Love

Chapter 25: Darlin' If You Only Knew

Another day, another year older. It was finally my birthday. I got up from my bed and realized that Sebastian was asleep next to me. I don't really remember how and why he was next to me, but I wasn't going to complain. I quietly got up from bed and realized I wasn't wearing any clothes. Fuck.

I walked over to my bathroom and quickly closed and locked the door. How could I be so stupid?? I barely know this guy. Why did I already let him have sex with me and stay in my bed? What was I thinking? This was NOT happening. That was the moment I realized that I'm not ready for any of this. I can't be in another relationship.

With the door still shut and locked, I turned on the shower and hopped in. I felt so dirty both figuratively and physically. Who knew how many girls this guy has been with? For gods sake he's a lead singer in a band!! Of course he's fucked many girls. After about 30 minutes of being in the shower, I turned off the water and got out. I dried myself off and quietly snook back into my room, hoping he was either still asleep or even better, gone. To my realization, he wasn't in my bed anymore. I grabbed an oversized flannel with a cropped black tank top and some spandex and black converse. Once I got dressed, I then heard footsteps near my door. I grabbed the closest thing to me that I could use as a weapon to protect myself.

"Woah Kat!! What the hell" Sebastian yelled, startled as I held up one of my 5 inch heels, ready to swing.

"Fuck, you scared the hell out of me" I said dropping my shoe. "I thought you had left" I finished saying kinda sounding surprised.

"And just leave you without making breakfast on your birthday" he questioned with a smirk on his face. I couldn't help but smile back. The smirk on his face was quite sexy and so was his shirtless torso. All he wore was a pair of boxers, revealing a bit of his v-line. Now I somewhat understand why he was in my bed last night.

"You're too kind, Seb" I reply.

"Well when you're ready, it's out on the table ready for you" he said walking over to the side of my bed where he slept on. He proceeded to put on his sleeveless band top and leather pants and boots.

"You-you don't have to leave right away. Come and join me" I say.

"Maybe just for a few minutes" he said standing up after putting on his shoes.

After he finished up eating, he got up from the chair and washed his dish. I was still eating and flipping through a magazine.

"Hey, I'm going to head out. My band and I have to go to the studio today. Would you like me to call you later" he asked walking back over to me.

"Yeah. I'm not sure what time I'll be back home though. Why don't I call you" I ask.

"Yeah, that's fine. Have a good day at work. Happy birthday, gorgeous" he said kissing my forehead and grabbing his keys, then proceeding to walk out the door and leave.

I'm not going to lie, this was a really sweet thing of him to do, but it was just all happening to fast. I've been through this once before, and that for sure didn't work out as you can tell.

Later that day.....

"Have a nice day" I say to the customer I rang up as the walked out the door.

In the store today, it was only me and Spencer working the store. Thank god it was a quiet day. I looked up at the clock and read 3:27pm.
I felt as if time was going by so slow. I don't know why that was bothering me though because it's not like I really had anything planned for my birthday.

"Hey Kat, is there a certain spot you wanted these at" Spencer said carrying a box of merchandise.

"What is it" I ask.
