College Love Affair

Chapter 6 - The Truth

--Ian--

I had been sitting on my bed for what seemed like hours playing video games ever since I left Megan's dorm room. As I started thinking about it, I remembered how she was acting. When I kissed her good morning, she pulled back in shock. When I asked her if anything was wrong, she immediately replied saying nothing was wrong, in an awkward and suspicious way. She can't fool me. Something's up but what? Just then it hit me. The passionate kissing, the pulling away, the suspicious response; she was afraid I'd force her into having sex with me.

Just then, I heard a knock on my door and turned off my game console and tv as I walked towards the door to see who it was. I opened the door without hesitation and found myself face to face with Megan.

God she was so cute. She had her dirty blonde hair tied up into a messy bun to match the rest of her casual look; sweats and a baseball tee. Of course, her being a girl, she had her makeup done. But what I loved about Megan is that she'd never cake on her makeup like the others; she would always go for the natural look and she worked it every time.

"Hey, what are you doing here?" I said as I came in to hug her before letting her in.

"Well I just came out of class and thought I'd come visit you since you don't have class for a while."

I smiled. She was always trying to do cute stuff like this. But then again, she never visited me in my dorm; she was here to talk -- to tell me why she freaked out this morning.

"So, anything on your mind?" I asked.

"Actually, yeah I wanted to talk to you about the party."

The party? What on earth could've happened at the party that seemed to be bugging her? I just stared at her, my brows furrowed to show her my confusion.

"I should have told you about it right away but I was kind of hesitant 'cause I was afraid you'd judge me and hate me forever." She began.

"Look if this is some weird virgin thing where you tell me you don't wanna rush into anything, don't worry. I won't force you to have sex with me." I said interrupting her.

"What? No! This has nothing to do with me being a virgin or sex!"

"Then what is this about?"

"Tyler and I kissed!" She blurted out.

I was in shock. I had no words for her actions. I was worried this would happen. I specifically told her I thought it was a bad idea to invite Tyler in case he tried to pull something. And lo' and behold, he did. I was furious. At Megan, at Tyler but mostly myself for letting this happen. My expression grew angrier as I took in what happened.

"Before you say anything, I want to explain myself."

Oh, this had better be good.

"As you know, I got drunk at the party. After we got separated, I went around looking for you. Me being under the influence, I couldn't see too well in terms of identifying people. When I thought I saw you, I walked in that direction, hoping we could talk and, ya know, just be together. I walked over to what I thought was you, and next thing I know, I'm kissing Tyler Mead on the lips. The minute we pulled apart and I saw who it was, I regretted it. I was shocked, I mean I had no idea that he was gonna do that. He told me that he was drunk too and he thought I was Crystal. Despite his intentions, I was furious at him for doing that." She told me.

Wow. I didn't know what to think.

"If you regretted it and were so furious, why didn't you just tell me all this after the party? I slept in your bed, I gave you good morning kisses, I even kissed you goodbye in your dorm and the entire time, you were thinking about that damn kiss."

"After what happened at Starbucks, I didn't want you thinking I broke my promises, or that I lied, or that I was a horrible girlfriend! I didn't wannabe judged especially after I assured you that nothing would happen with Tyler! I told Tyler at the party that you couldn't know because you'd never forgive me. After thinking about it for some time, I realized that that was the wrong call; that me telling you right after would be better than you finding out from some random." She said with a sad expression written on her face.

I could see tears building up in her eyes and knew that she was telling the truth. I knew Megan and whenever she was telling the truth, you could see it in her eyes; her eyes always spoke her genuine feelings.

"Babe, did you really think I would judge you?"

"Yeah, I thought you'd think I was a slut or something." She said

"Really? A slut? You haven't even lost your virginity yet and you still think I'd call you a slut." I said in a humorous tone, hoping to cheer her up.

She laughed with the built up tears falling down her face. I looked at her face and used my thumb to wipe away her tears as I began to hold her in my arms. She fell into my warm embrace and we just stood there for a minute, enjoying the moment. We finally broke apart and looked at each other once more.

"Megan, if anything's ever on your mind, don't be afraid to tell me. You know I'm always here for you." I said reassuringly.

She nodded in agreement as she smiled. God I loved her smile. I put my hand around her waist and grabbed her towards me, leaning my head in for a kiss. She kissed me back so passionately, it came out of nowhere. I let her kiss me for a bit before I lifted her up and she wrapped her legs around my waist. I carried her towards the wall, pushing her against the wall. I moved my lips from her lips to her neck. As I continued kissing her neck, she let out a moan and I just wanted to keep going, but I stopped. We pulled apart from each other, our faces centimeters apart. We just stared at each other for a moment as we breathed heavily. I realized she was still being lifted with her legs around me so I put her down and she unwrapped her legs.

"I won't go any further until you're ready." I said.

Rather than saying anything, she just hugged me as she muffled her face into my hooded sweatshirt. When we broke apart from our hug,she said "I love you Ian Williams"

In response I said "I love you more Megan Richards."

So i thought i'd try writing a chapter in ian's perspective so we could see how he thinks and responds to the situation. I originally wanted a scene where ian and megan ended up getting into a fight and megan regretted taking tyler's advice in telling ian but that became too hard and when i started writing a scene where they made up, i came up with an idea on how to continue the story.

Anyways hope u guys are enjoying the story
