The Two Of Us

Chapter 6

Davis' POV

Caleb, Henry and I start walking towards Linda's dorm. Henry and Caleb are still single so they won't have to go with their girlfriends. Caleb really tries hard to impress girls. but no luck. so they both come with me. I walk towards Linda's dorm.
Justin, Oliver and Dylan are going to meet us in the bar. They three live in the same dorm. I knock on Linda's dorm. Linda comes out with her roommates. She is dressed in complete black. A tight fitting dress until her thighs. It has no straps. She is wearing a choker with bright red heels. her hair is neatly straightened. She is wearing overly dark lipstick. She gives me a peck on my lips.

"Let's go Dav!" she says while holding my hand.

Henry, Caleb and I go with Linda and her roommates- Emily and Kara; start moving towards the bar.

The bar is packed with people. smoking, drinking, dancing and laughing at each other. the usual scenario. Justin, Dylan and Oliver- all are sitting around the table. drinking and chatting. Justin and Linda look at each other and Justin quickly winks. I swear I could see a small smile on her lips. I look at her and don't bother to hide my suspension. It's not her cheating on me that I'm surprised by its because she's fucking with Justin. I knew I shouldn't have dated her but what were my options? I fucked her and she acted all melodramatic. Besides, her father is the principal. He would have kicked my ass out of the college if he knew I was using her for sex. So I gave it a try and ruined both of our lives. More so hers, mine was already ruined.

"Yo Dav!" Dylan calls out and hands me a shot glass. Henry and Caleb are already seated. I take the glass from Dylan. "Wait for everyone." gesturing to the shot glass. I sit down next to Linda who is sitting close to Justin, talking and laughing. I roll my eyes at both of them and Justin notices apparently he has some shame left in him because he moves away a bit.

"Hey, ready?" Dylan asks and there is a roar of approval. "1...2...3!" He screams and everyone take their shot glass. they purse their lips and their eyes roll right back into their head. I stand up and move towards the bar stand fo a drink. I look at everybody, scanning the crowd. I see Henry, talking to Caleb; Dylan and Emily are dancing together. Oliver is examining his glass and Kara cleaning the alcohol he just dropped on her. I cannot see Linda and Justin anywhere.

They are missing and definitely together. And I think I know where they are. I stride towards the smoking room that is no more in use. I know for sure they are in there. I slowly open the door, barely breathing. Trying to make minimal noise, and then I peep inside the room...and I see them. Justin and Linda. sitting in the corner of the room; barely visible. Linda is sitting on top of Justin, her hands in his hair. They are kissing each other like they would never be able to do it again. I could feel the electricity between them.They slowly start rocking back and forth. He slowly slides his tongue inside her mouth. making her moan. I felt like someone just slapped me in the face. They start rocking faster as Justin moans. He whispers something in her ear and she stops. He sits up straight and removes his t-shirt. He moves his hand to her back and starts unzipping her. I sigh deeply and wrap my fingers tightly around the door knob. I close the door behind me and turn away.

I can feel my face burning with rage. How could Justin do this to me? Even if Linda had no brains, I wouldn't expect this from Justin. He is my friend since high school. Justin? No way. I walking, thinking of ways to dump her when I see Henry peeping inside. He turns around, cringing. I shrug and shake my head as Henry walks towards me. He knows me enough to know that I'm disappointed. He's been my friend since elementary school.

He pats my back with surprising gentleness. Is it that obvious that I'm disappointed? Bad at hiding your emotions Haywood... Another one. Can you act any more like a fucked up son of a bitch? I shake my head. Trying to cover self pity with anger is not a good way to cool down.

"Justin? Wow" I say. Hardly managing to keep my voice leveled.

"Come. Let's go to the dorm" He says and we get up. He leads me to the car and drives us to the campus. Even though I'd never admit it, I'm greatful for Henry.

The moment we reach the dorm, I start thinking of horrible ways to dump her.

"She won't get away with this. I am going to break up with her in front of the whole campus." or something even worse.

"No, don't do that." Henry says, shaking his head.

"what! Are you fucking kidding me? That jackass cheated on me with one my fucking friends." I say and roll my eyes again.

"She has to pay for what she did. Don't break up. Not now. Finally, she was the first girl you dated. That too against your will."

"But what if she breaks up with me? I can't handle her dumping me after cheating on me." I scoff.

"No. She won't. She needs you for popularity and also her exams. use your wits Dav. As you said, she won't get away with this."
