3 Months Later - Tuesday
My relationship with Aaron was going well. We'd eat out, go to the movies, come back to his apartment, and make love. It was becoming a regular pattern. This semester was different than my last one though with my classes having almost 2 hours of break in-between each one.
Aaron told me to just come to their apartment in-between classes so that I could hang out and play video games or study. I thought it was a good idea, but every time I'd show up, Jesse had some girl in his room. All I would hear is banging and screaming.
I wanted that.
I had never been f****d so hard I screamed for it, begged for it. I wanted Aaron to f**k me like that. We only did missionary, and while it was nice, I wanted to be rammed hard. I wanted it from the back. I wanted to be on top. I wanted to be f****d on furniture like he had that girl in here the first time we met. I craved it.
I hadn't even c*m with Aaron yet. I did love him, I really do, but the way we made love didn't ignite my fire. I loved him for his personality and kindness, but the s*x was so bland.
I sat on the couch pretending to write down school work when I heard this new girl scream in ecstasy. I knew she would be out soon, as they never stayed long once they were with him. I never saw him with many different women, but never consecutively. This past month he had 3 of the same girls, but never one day after the next. He worked as a military trainer at some facility, so only 2 days out of his week, he would have girls over. Tuesday and Wednesday.
Tuesday was the day I would have 2 hours in-between my classes and Wednesday and hour and a half. So, of course on the days he was off, were the days I needed a place to spend my time the most. The girl walked out of his room fully dressed with makeup still amazingly up-kept. She walked over to me smugly, looked down at me, and giggled. "He's good. Have you tested him out yet?"
"What? No, I'm his roommate's girlfriend."
"Shame." Was all she said before exiting.
"See ya, Tess!" I didn't notice Jesse had come out of his room. He waved at her, and before she left, she turned around and blew him a kiss goodbye. I made a disgusted face at him, then looked back down and continued to pretend I was studying. I wanted him to go back into his room and leave me alone, but he had other plans.
He walked over to me and sat down behind me. My back was to him as I sat sideways on the couch with my workbooks spread out in front of me. He slowly slid his finger up the spine of my back, grabbing onto a lock of hair I had up into my ponytail. A shiver went down my whole back.
"You know, if you ever need someone to make you squeal, I'm available." I was completely taken aback. How could he say something like that to his own roommate?! His own supposedly best friend? I turned to face him and scolded him; he threw his hands up in defense. "I'm only joking, relax." He stood up laughing and walked back to his room like nothing had happened.
I leaned back unable to breathe. I loved him touching me. I wanted him to touch me again. I bit down on my lip and started twirling my hair in my fingers. Every girl he brought in here had blonde hair, but mine was a dark black. Was he into blondes? For a moment I thought about dyeing it, but then agreed that was insane.
I needed to get myself back on track and stop thinking about him. It was f****d up. I have Aaron, and I love Aaron. I can't let this Jesse guy get into my head.
Wednesday
I wanted to surprise Aaron before he got home from work, and my last class was cancelled so I had at least 3 hours to fix him up something nice. I was really good at making enchilada's so I thought I could whip up some nice cheese, beef, and chicken ones and make him a nice dinner.
Today was not a typical day; however, I had yet to see Jesse. The door was unlocked for me as it always was, but usually, Jesse has some girl with him. I'd been here for over an hour already, and he had yet to leave his room, and there was no evidence of any girl in there. Out or pure worriedness, I walked over to his door and rapped quietly on it. "Jesse, I was just wondering if you like enchiladas."
No response.
After another 30 minutes of cooking, I finally heard him coughing in the bedroom. Well that's good, at least he is alive. I continued chopping up the peppers listening to him at his door unlocking it. He walked out looking at the ground and not even glancing at me. "I just need to use the restroom." Was all he muttered out before slamming the door behind him. It looked as if he had been crying.
I couldn't help myself; I walked over to the bathroom door and knocked on it. "Are you okay? Do you want me make you an enchilada too? I have beef, cheese, chick..." He threw the door opened and flung into me arms wide into a huge embrace. "Oh, Jesse, what's wrong? What happened?"
"I'm just not dealing with today well. I'm sorry. Um, cheese, please if you don't mind. I like cheese." He pushed himself away and looked at me. He wasn't crying, but his face was really puffy and torn up from being upset.
"Will you tell me what's wrong?" I asked.
"It's just, my dad, this is the day he died last year. I just miss him mad like... I can't."
"Oh, I'm really sorry." I leaned in pulling myself into his neck. He was only a couple inches taller than me. He wrapped his arm around me once more and buried his face into my shoulders. We were embraced in each other for longer than I was comfortable with, but before I could pull away I felt it. He was growing hard and with gym shorts on, I could feel every inch of him poking me into my side. I pulled away suddenly. "I..." I didn't know what to say.
"Sorry." He looked down and walked briskly back to his room.
Who can get a hard on when they're upset over something seriously like that? What a horn-dog. I shrugged it off and went back to the enchiladas.

Finally, Aaron was home, and more than happy to be off work. "Oh my gosh it smells amazing in here." He walked behind me, wrapping his arms around my waist and kissed me on the cheek.
"Yeah, she's been slaving away at it for hours." Jesse said as he walked out of his room taking a seat on the couch and flicking through the channels.
"I can't wait to taste it, but I have a surprise. And bro, I didn't forget about you either. We'll hang out later and have a few drinks on your dad if that's cool?"
"Of course man." He responded.
"But first, I would like to ask you something Mary."
"Sure." I was kind of worried about what his question was. We hadn't been dating very long, and he better not propose to me like this. He handed a small black square shaped flat box to me. Too small for a wedding ring, but too big for jewelry. I looked at him smiling and curious, picked up the box, and opened it.
"What?" I said shocked.
"Please, Mary, move in with me."
"What?!" Jesse screamed from the living room. The living room and kitchen were a combined open area only separated from an island, so he could eavesdrop on our conversation.
"Will you move in with me Mary? You won't have to work as much, you could stop working every night and cut it in half, giving you so much more time for your studies, and we won't charge you for rent. I can pay my half just fine." I looked down at the key to the apartment he made special for me, even in my favorite color, neon green.
Not having to work so much would help me so much with college, and I'll have a place really close I could even walk to and from campus. I could even pay off my tuition not having to pay close to $600 a month for my studio apartment. This is a dream come true.
"Yes, yes I will!" I screeched taking Aaron into a huge hug. I was facing in Jesse's direction, and I could see the sad or worried expression on his face. What was his problem? He should be happy for his friend.
