The next day, I met up Kodi after work so he could go with me to go grocery shopping for the week. He walked the aisles with me in contemplative silence. I know he was waiting for me to bring up the conversation that I had with Kasey the other day, but this is their proposition. I’m not going to be the one to bring it up. We kept walking in silence as I looked at the fruits and picked my favorite oranges and strawberries. Finally, we get down to the frozen section when he finally decides to speak up.
“So Kasey told me he talked to you the other day about our proposition.”
“Ahh, you finally got the balls to bring it up. Yeah, he did.”
" I’ve had balls Allie Cat but you are different. You’re my best friend.”
“Had balls? Does that mean they are gone now, Kodi?” I smirked at him.
“f**k you Allie you’re such a b***h!”
“Aww what’s the matter, did I strike a nerve. If I’m such a b***h why are you friends with me prick?”
“Cause you’re the only one who gets me you douche. Can we get back to what I was saying?”
“Sure dude. Yes Kasey talked to me about it the other night. I told him that I had to think about it because you guys are my best friends and I don’t want to ruin our friendship or have anything be awkward with you guys afterward.”
“He told me you said yes, not that you had to think about it and I don’t think it would be awkward, it would just be three friends who f****d!”
“Oh, so your going to be f*****g Kasey too. And I may have said yes in the moment but I’m not so sure anymore.” I laughed.
“Jeez you are so gross no I plan on f*****g you!” He said aloud, causing people to turn and look at us through narrowed eyes.
“Real smooth genius. What makes you think I wanna f**k you though?”
“Ooh so you’d rather f**k Kasey than f**k me is what your saying?”
“You’re really getting in your feelings here buddy that’s not what I said.”
“You won’t take this conversation seriously that’s why.”
“No I take it very serious that both of my best friends have came to the conclusion that they in some way shape or form want to f**k me because they don’t want me to f**k a stranger. You guys have made that quite clear. The question is why you think I would want to f**k either one if you smart asses.”
“You have got quite the mouth on you you know.”
“Yeah that’s why I’m your friend and it’s not like you can do anything about it.”
Suddenly, I was grabbed and pressed up against the freezer door that I was standing next to. I gasped as the coldness from the door seeped through my thin shirt and made goosebumps appear on my skin. Looking up Kodi’s ocean eyes stared back at me and he moved towards my neck kissing softly until he reached my earlobe nipping it causing a current to flow through me straight to my p***y.
“There’s a lot I could do about that mouth. The question is are you going to let me.”
I suppressed the moan bubbling in my throat, noticing that there was people watching us not that I really gave a s**t but don’t feel like having the cops called on me for indecency.
"Let go of me Kodi, people are watching and you are causing a scene. He backed off but only enough to give me some space but just enough that I could still smell his cologne lingering in the air between us. I squeezed in between to escape and walked away from him trying to get myself under control. With jerking movements I grabbed my basket and started walking away from him.
“Where are you going?” He yelled out.
“To finish my grocery shopping and go home!” I yelled back.
“Wait up!”
“No I don’t think I will.”
“Allie Cat wait I’m sorry please slow down.”
“Sorry for what Kodi? That you have been inappropriate at the wrong time and place.”
“Oh, please, you act like you didn’t like it!’
“That’s not the f*****g point you d**k. You guys are completely trying to manipulate me into something that I may not even want, just because you guys feel you are a better choice than some random doesn’t mean you are.”
“We are just trying to look out for you, Allejandra!”
“Oh yes totally looking out for me by trying to get your d**k wet inside of my p***y. Yeah thanks. Leave me alone, Kodi, go home. I can finish shopping by myself.”
Stomping down the aisles, I turned into the one a few rows over to get away from him and take a breather. What is it with guys thinking that they can piss all over everything, trying to claim it as their own. I’m not their damn show pony that they can show off and be like hey look what I got. Mentally exhausted, I didn’t even finish shopping I paid for what I had then left. Dumping the groceries at home, I only put away what was frozen and cold before going to change into my bathing suit and yoga pants and climbing back into my car. Driving ten miles into the woods, I parked the car in my usual spot and hiked the rest of the way to the hidden waterfall within. No one knew about this place. I discovered it on accident one day when I was hiking and it has become my secret sanctuary since when everything gets too overwhelming. I sat at the edge just keeping my feet in the water. The best part about this was the water was always warm and I could see all the stars without the lights from the city interfering.
Eventually I stripped down to my bra and thong and dove into the water coming up after a few minutes. I could feel all the stress melt away. Suddenly a twig snapped and I froze turning towards the direction of the sound. As far as I knew no one knew about this place so maybe it was an animal. I dove back under the water swimming around again before coming up for air. When I breached the surface I turned to find Kasey sitting on the rocks next to my clothes. I rolled my eyes and turned my back to him swimming to the opposite side. I didn’t get out but I kept my distance. I leaned against the rocks that laid against the water and took a deep breathe wishing everyone would just leave me alone. All I want is peace and quiet.
I heard the water splash behind me and knew I didn’t need to turn around to know that it was Kasey swimming up behind me. I could feel him close to me, he kept his distance knowing that I was absolutely pissed off at the both of them. I love them Lord knows I do but what makes them think that they can make this decision in my life for me. He came a little closer but not next to me, he came up to the rocks that I was leaning against and leaned against some a little ways down from me still trying to give me space but be close to me as well. I turned to look at him and his gaze penetrated through me, I could see the concern in his eyes but I didn’t want to have any kind of sympathy for him, when they had none for me only what they could provide or prove to me. I was tired of playing this game with them I am a grown ass woman and I can make my own choices.Finally I broke the silence.
“How did you find me?”
“Your location on your phone. I went by your house after Kodi told me what happened but you were not home. I’m sorry Lexie I am, he had no right to do what he did.”
“Just as you had no right to do what you did Kasey. You guys have no boundaries at all and that has to change. I am tired of dealing with your possessiveness when there should not even be any. Why are you here?”
“To make sure that you were okay. I am not here for anything else or to try and convince you that you should do this. I am here as your best friend like always.”
I could tell that he was sincere in his apology but I was not ready to forgive him yet. I pushed off the rocks and swam~!
backwards away from him until I got to the middle of the pool. I stood up and watched as he watched me with curiosity mixed with a little bit of lust, so I ducked under the water and swam beneath the waterfall then came back up behind it, watching the water fall in front of me creating a beautiful rainbow. It was loud behind it but I needed the space. There were to many thoughts that were going through my mind and I did not want being in his vicinity to cloud my judgement.
But as I climbed up on the other side of the falls I heard a loud splash, and see Kasey as he raises himself up out of the water behind the falls as well. Great, so much for space. I watched as the water cascaded down the ripples and creases of his abs. The water trailed down to the hard cut that went down into his shorts. I tore my eyes away before he could catch me staring. However it was too late and he saw me, I could see the glint in his eyes when they met mine.
“See something you like Lexie!” he smirked.
I turned away from him and scowled.
“Come on don’t be like that. It wasn’t my idea for him to say something to you, not yet at least. We were supposed to sit down and talk about it, since it is your body and your plan.”
“He has some odd jealousy about you, you know that right?”
“Yeah I do. It’s because he likes you and you don’t feel the same way. He thinks that you have feelings for me.”
“Where would he even get that idea?”
Kasey looked at me as if he knew my secret but I was never going to admit that I had feelings for him. I looked away from his steely gaze and back out at the waterfall. Kasey sat next to me and put his arm around me so I could lay my head on his shoulder. Internally there was a war waging within me and I knew I was going to lose it, by admitting that I was going to go with their plan and sleep with both of them. I just hope that at the end of it all no one comes out of it hurt or feeling awkward.
