My Best Friends Mistress

Chapter Three - What is going on?

Callie's P.O.V

Everyone was having a good night. We have all had too much to drink but none of us seemed to be caring. We came for a good night and that is exactly what we were doing. Asher seemed more relaxed now…less stressed which made me happy. I hated seeing him that way, especially cause I was used to him being happy, fun, letting loose and being a little wild like me. The last two years those sides of him have still been there but not as much as they once were and I missed that.

“Callie, come dance with me?” Asher said, jumping to his feet and extending his hand to me. 

He must be drunk, he doesn’t do dancing.

“Who said I wanna dance with you?” I giggled. 

“Please Bambi?” he said giving me his best puppy dog eyes. 

“Fine!” I groaned, throwing my hands in the air, giggling cause I was only messing with him. 

“Thank You.” He said smiling widely at me. 

I grabbed his hand, Asher pulling me to my feet, leading me through the crowds and onto the dance floor. He pulled me into him, placing his hands on my hips. I wrapped my arms around his neck. Yes, I know what this looks like but it isn't that at all. It was only dancing, nothing more. It is something we always do when we are drunk. Yes, it may come across as a little…um…sexual but it is just how we do it, we have always danced well together. When we were teenagers we took some salsa and Latin dancing lessons which is something he will never admit to ANYONE. It only started as fun one day we were bored but turned out we enjoyed it. The dance teacher telling us we dance well together. We have good chemistry so we stuck with it for a while, well until he met Kate then we stopped…Asher not wanting to make her feel uneasy about him and me which I understood at the time. Now though as I said it is only something we do when we are drunk.

Our bodies started moving against each other’s, moving in perfect rhythm with the music that was blaring through the club. Our hips ground against each other. I pulled away from him for a moment, only to turn around, my back against his front. I giggled as I ground my ass into him, Asher chuckling in my ear. As I said it is only dancing. It is only for fun.

“Oh, what people must think?” He chuckled in my ear

“Oh well.” I giggled, wrapping my arms around his neck from behind me. 

He placed his hands on my waist, his front grinding against my ass. If it was more than just fun then I am sure I would be over-excited and his excitement would be felt in his jeans. Let’s face it what guy doesn’t get excited when he has a woman grinding her ass into him? We let the music take over as our bodies moved together. I was enjoying it but all of a sudden I heard his breathing becoming a little heavier in my ear, his grip tightening on my waist. That was an unusual response from him, wasn’t sure how I felt about it.

“We should stop.” He said quickly, abruptly pulling away from me. 

I turned around to look at him. He was looking flushed, his breathing seeming uneven and there was nervousness about him and the way he was looking at me was making me uneasy.

“Asher is everything alright?” I asked

“I don’t know.” He sighed, running his hands through his hair

“What is going on?” I asked

“Don’t worry about it…let’s go join everyone else.” He said, giving me a small smile before he began walking away from, heading back to our table. 

I stood there in the middle of the dance floor alone, confused and wondering what the heck was that? It seemed to me he was enjoying that more than he should be. I ran my hands through my dark hair, sighing to myself before shaking it off and following him back to the table. He was sitting with a drink in hand, seeming lost in his own world. He looked up when he saw me approaching, giving me a smile but it wasn’t a real smile…it was the smile he uses when he is worried about something. I know whatever that was on the dancefloor…something I honestly have no clue about was getting to him. I wanted to know why but there was no point talking about it the now with the both of us drunk, better leaving it to the morning.

I took my seat next to him, grabbing my drink and taking a long swig of it. I felt myself feeling slightly awkward around him which was something that has never happened. I don’t like it…don’t like it one bit. I decided I would ask him now about, see what he had to say even though when tomorrow comes, most of tonight will be a blur or purposely forgotten about. I reached into his ear, making sure he was the only one that could hear me. 

“You wanna tell me what the heck that was all about Ash?” I whispered

He turned looking at me, nodding his head.

“Yeah, not here come on outside.” He said

I nodded, Asher standing up and I soon followed, telling the others we would be back soon and headed outside. Where we would hear ourselves think and hear what we were actually saying to each other. We headed around the side of the club, out of everyone’s ways.

“I am sorry about that in there.” He said, giving me a sad look

“What even was that?” I asked.

“I don’t know, it got to me in ways it doesn’t usually. Actually, I do know. It has been months since Kate and I have had s*x…since she even touched me. She barely kisses me either. I think it was just cause I haven't had any of that sort of closeness for months it got to me. It made my hormones take over at having a woman’s body close to me again. I know that sounds so wrong cause it has never been like that between us and I am sorry.” He said.

I knew they were fighting and what not. I never realized they weren’t having s*x either especially since at one point they couldn’t keep their hands off each other. Also, to be honest my best friends s*x drive is very high. It was understandable why me being that close got to him. The poor guy hasn't been laid in months.

“Oh…that would explain a lot I guess, don’t worry about it. That long uh? The two of you used to have a very busy, hot s*x life which is details I don’t really need to know about but you always shared anyway. I knew you have been arguing a lot, never realized there was no intimacy either between you both. Sorry buddy, that must suck.” I said pulling a sad face at him. 

It made him chuckle which was something. 

“Yup, about three months. There is only so much a man can do for himself before it gets boring. Even with arguing and what not we were still having s*x…hot make up s*x but these last few months she doesn’t come near me, makes excuses. I am beginning to wonder if she is maybe seeing someone else.” He said. 

Yes, I do not like the woman with the way she treats my best friend but I don’t know if she seems the cheating type. Then again she isn’t the person I thought she was…that Asher thought she was. She must still feel something if she is still with him. I don’t know, maybe it would be best if she was. Maybe then she would leave Asher and he could concentrate on being happy without her again, then at the same time if that was to happen I knew it would break his heart no matter what they are going through right now.

“Do you think she would do that?” I asked

“I don’t know.” He sighed “Anyway enough about that I only wanted to apologize to you.” He said, pulling me into his chest and hugging me tightly, kissing the top of my head. 

“It is fine, don’t worry about it buddy. I understand.” I replied looking up at him. 

“Thank You. You really are the best Bambi. Now come on, time to get even drunker.” He chuckled. 

“Good plan, let’s go,” I said smiling widely at him. 

I pulled away from his hug, taking his hand in mine and leading us back inside. I was glad we got things sorted, never wanted things being awkward between us especially after all these years.
