Haley got into the house and with a smile on her face, she made her way to Carter’s room with the gift she had gotten for him. It was one in the afternoon and she knew he would be in his bedroom studying at this time. She could already imagine the look of surprise on his face, the scene of how shocked he’d be when he saw her and how he’d hug her and kiss her and undress her, ignoring the PES 5, because she was the main present, all these thoughts made her so ecstatic and the smile on her face widened as her heart pounded hard against her chest with every step she took up the stairs.
She got to his door and slowly pushed it open, ready to shout ‘SURPRISE!’, but the smile on her face faded into shock and confusion at the sight she found.
Right there on her man’s bed, her boyfriend, Carter, laid down, sweating as a lady rode on him, moaning like a w***e with a decade’s worth of experience.
“Carter!” Haley yelled. “What the hell is going on here?” she yelled and the box in her hands dropped loudly to the floor, bringing their fun to a stop as the lady jumped off her boyfriend instinctively and quickly covered her nakedness with the duvet.
“Haley? Is that you?” Carter said, but he didn’t sound flustered in any way. “What are you doing here? You weren’t supposed to be back till next week,” he said and sat up, gently wiping off the sweat on his forehead.
“Really? That is what you are going to say to me?” Haley asked, a bit confused. She had seen this scene in a lot of movies, but this was not how it was usually done in the movies. “Carter! I just caught you f**king some random w***e in our house on our bed and what you are going to do is to ask me why am I home earlier than you expected?” she said with a tone of pain and hatred.
“First of all, she is not a random w***e…” Carter said and got off the bed to pick up his shorts. “… that is your best friend, your bestie, or whatever you used to call her, That is Eva, your friend, not some random w***e, alright? And secondly, what the hell are you expecting me to say?”
“Eva?” Haley muttered and looked at the lady under the duvet closely. “Oh my God,” she held her mouth in disbelief. “Eva! What the … What the hell are you doing with my boyfriend?”
“What does it look like?” Eva said and sat up with confidence. “I am giving him the pleasure you never could.”
“What?!” Haley was shocked and confused, unable to move an inch.
“I told you she was going to come back today,” Eva turned to Carter with a frown on her face. “Why couldn’t you have just been patient and allowed her to come home first and then we could have met later tonight,” she said and rolled off the bed, displeased with Carter.
“I don’t f**king care about her or what she thinks,” Carter replied. “Besides, I was done playing hide and seek, I don’t see any reason why I should keep lying to her. She was going to find out eventually anyways,” he said with a cocky tone
“Well, I f**king care Carter! She was supposed to recommend me to a top stylist in town and now that is definitely not going to happen,” Eva said and began putting her underwear back on with a frown on her face.
“I will get you whatever that was and even more if you want, that is not going to be a problem,” Carter replied confidently. “I will buy the f**king business if it comes to that, okay? Carter said and grabbed Eva from behind, kissing her softly on the neck
Haley was dumbfounded by what she was witnessing. Not only were they without remorse for what they had done, they were now behaving as if she wasn’t even there at all.
“I am definitely dreaming, this can’t be happening to me,” she muttered to herself.
“Well, if you were dreaming, then I would have been on my knees begging you for mercy, explaining why I did it and promising not to do it again and all that bullshit …” Carter turned to her and said, “ … but here I am, telling you that that dream is not going to happen. I will keep doing what I want, and if you aren’t happy, if you can’t accept this reality, then please, the door is that way, leave the f**king relationship so no dumb motherf**king reporter can think of calling me a cheat,” he added with a nonchalant tone.
Haley opened her eyes in shock. She couldn’t believe her ears.
“Eva! How … How could you do this to me?” Haley muttered as the tears that had been welling up in her eyes all this time started to find their way out of her eyes. “I … I thought we were friends? We … We were friends Eva, why did you do this?” she stammered.
“We were friends? So, you have already thrown our friendship in your past?” Eva laughed.
“If you were me, wouldn’t you have done worse?” Haley said, raising her voice. “I know you well enough to know that you would have scratched my eyes out of my eye sockets.”
“Well, I think you should update your understanding of your friends a bit, Haley,” Eva said with a look of disappointment on her face. “If I was that kind of person, I would have scratched your eyes out three years ago today.”
“What?” Haley raised a brow in confusion.
“Yes,” Eva nodded. “Every year when you remember the day you met the man you loved, I remember the day I lost the chance to be with a man I loved.”
Haley looked confused. Other than the fact that Eva wasn’t going straight to the point, Haley was still a bit woozy from realizing her man was cheating on her with her best friend.
“Ugh,” Eva groaned. “The day you met Carter, we were at a party and I saw him checking me out and I told you, but you were so sure that he was checking you out. I told you I had known of him and had been crushing on him for months, and you went over to him when I went to get us drinks. I thought you were talking to him about me and I was so embarrassed I wanted to run away, but then … but then you were soon kissing him, you were kissing the same man I told you I had feelings for,” Eva explained. “You knew I loved and wanted him but you still f**ked him anyways, so yes Haley, f**king your best friend’s man is a b***h move, but you are the b***h who started it, and I am f**king glad you found out and I could finally get this off of my chest, so if you don’t mind, please get the f**k out so I can finish what you started,” she said and began re-undressing herself. “But if you do mind, feel free to hang around and watch how to take a man and keep him,” Eva said with a defiant tone and grabbed Carter, pulling him down to her height and taking his lips into her mouth.
Haley stood there, shaken to her bone marrow. Her friend had been harboring a grudge against her for three years. It made her wonder what else Eva had sabotaged. She watched them for a while but when she couldn’t take it anymore, she walked back down the stairs, picked up her suitcase and left the house with the other things she had gotten him.
‘Was this my fault? Did I really start this?’ she asked herself as she left the house.
‘No, it can’t be. Yes, she did tell me that she was having a crush on him, but how was I supposed to know she was serious about him when she was already in a relationship? Besides, I wasn’t into him, I just wanted to have s*x with him that night, and … gosh … I can’t believe I am trying to justify myself after she just broke my trust,’ she frowned.
‘I will make you pay for what you did to me. Carter, I promise you, you will regret the day you met and came into my life. You will regret ever thinking about hurting me like you did Carter, I swear it,’ she swore as she dragged her suitcase down the road.
