In Love With A Billionaire

Avery.

January 6th 2020

So there you have it. That's what happened to Bentley.

Fuck, I'm late for work.

Just as I get to my door, prepared to run to my car before Avery would notice and call to chew me out, I get a phone call.

It's Avery. Too late.

I let out a sigh and answer his call.

"Hey Ave , I'm stuck in traffic."

I hope that lie worked. I never lie to Avery but I didn't want him to know I had a depressive moment from reflecting on my time with Bentley. He'd get too worried .

"You okay? You don't sound okay. You've been working like a slave... in fact that's why I called you. You could've stayed home... You still can. I know you're tired and I know you've been thinking about Bentley." Avery says and then he gets quiet. I guess I should say something?

"It was a relief to hear this.. because it's all true." I say as I walk to my couch and plop down. I kick my heels off and sigh.

"Just stay home.. I'll stop by later ?"

"Uhh, yeah . Sure. Bring donuts ?"

"You got it." I can literally hear the smile on his face.

"Okay, later." I hang up and I smile slightly. It was great having Avery as a friend. Sometimes I think I want him as more... but he has a girlfriend. I'll get to that soon. Besides, I haven't been with anyone since Bentley, and I wouldn't go for someone I'm so close to. Even though it sounds ideal.

So. His girlfriend.

Her name is Brianna Banks, and she's a personal trainer. He goes to the gym she works at. But she does one on one sessions and that's how they met. They've been together for a year and a half, I think he actually likes her because he hasn't cheated on her at all. Yes, that is surprising. If you know Ave, you know he was a damn serial cheater.

Brianna and I have never met, she's pretty conservative and I hear she's nice. But I don't go by what I hear, I never do.

Avery is happy and I'm happy he's happy, that's all that matters .

My door bell rings and I grab my robe and sprint out my bedroom to the door.

"Kelly it's me, and your donuts." Avery says from the other side of the door , I open it and he holds the Dunkin' Donuts bag up . I grab it eagerly and give him a quick hug before I sit down on my couch .

I take a chocolate covered donut out of the bag and bite into it . Heaven .

Avery throws his coat on the couch and walks into the bathroom.

I dig into the bag for another donut and pull out an apple crumble flavored donut, Bentley's favorite. His face immediately floods my mind, I think about his voice and the last thing he said to me.

"I love you, Kelly."

I frustrates out the donut back in the bag and jump up from the couch. The room is spinning and all I hear is , "I love you, Kelly."

"Stop!" I screamed and ran both my hands through my hair . I didn't wanna hear his voice anymore, it hurt too bad.

I fall to my knees and cry .

"Kell?" Avery says as he rushes to me and crouches to my level. He wraps his arms around me.

"I'm fine. Just please-" I say as I push him off of me and stand to my feet. He stands too and I push past him and run off to my room.

"Kelly.."

I get into my bed and roll over on my side. The first thing I see is the picture of Bentley and I in Italy . I shut my eyes to try and keep the tears from flowing. It doesn't help, my eyes still stinging and rimming with tears.

I suddenly feel someone get into bed with me, it's Avery. He lies behind me, his arm around me and takes a long deep breath.

"I know you don't want to be by yourself. You don't have to be." His breath creeping down my neck with every word he says .

I turn to face him so that he sees how serious I am .

"You think you know everything. Don't you?"

"No. But I know for a fact you're hurting. You've been hurting. You don't have to be alone." He says looking downwards and then back into my eyes .

I give him a half smile and that's when I realized how tired I was. My eyes started to flutter and my body relaxed. I drifted off to sleep .

Avery runs his hands through my hair and I felt the need to stop him but I was too tired. He moved closer and kisses my forehead gently and moves a lock of my curly brown hair out of my face. I open my eyes and we're basically nose to nose , staring into each other's eyes .

"Avery, we shouldn't be in my bed together. You have a gir-"

He kisses me deeply and grabs the back of my head , but not too hard . I didn't fight. Instead I straddled him and he takes off my robe, running his hands up and down my spine , eventually unclipping my bra.

Did I mention Avery and I never had sex before? I mean we've showered together so yes I've seen him naked. But this is our first time ever having sex. I wanted it to be special and we just never found the right moment to actually do it .. then he cheated with Julie and the idea of letting him touch me intimately went into the garbage just like our relationship did when I found out he fucked her.

He laid me on the bed , and slowly pulled my panties off... with his teeth.

I didn't know what was happening but it was definitely happening. I wasn't backing out .
