당신 pull up to your house, an 시간 and a half after school let out, hoping your mother isn’t 집 to realize 당신 didn’t come straight 집 after school. To be honest, 당신 never actually went. 당신 spent the 일 in your lover’s arms, not moving from the 침대 except for that 시간 long 샤워 당신 took. 당신 close your eyes, relaxing against the leather seats, and a smile creeps across 당신 face as 당신 think of the way she touched you. 당신 blush, thinking of the way she made 당신 come, screaming her name and dragging your nails down her back. It was the first time 당신 didn’t have to fake your...

Your cell phone rings, waking 당신 from a peaceful sleep. 당신 reluctantly climb out of 침대 to find it, wrapping a sheet around 당신 and cursing whoever decided it was a good idea to call 당신 at 5 am. Stumbling towards your phone, 당신 smile at the blonde girl still sleeping, remembering the night before. 당신 flip your phone open without checking the caller ID.
“Hello,” 당신 say, your voice laced with the effects of sleep.
“Marissa Cooper,” the voice on the other end screeches. “Where the hell are you, young lady?”
“Yeah, nice to hear from you, too, Mom,” 당신 say sarcastically.
“Where...

당신 look up as 당신 hear the door open, watching her walk in. 당신 smile softly and tell her that her girlfriend has gone to sleep. She nods.

“Cool, I think we've seen the last of the guys,” she says, walking over to the table.

“Oh I wouldn’t be so sure, there’s still like what four 분 of girls night out left,” 당신 retort.

You watch her as she takes a drink from the 맥주 bottle she just picked up. “I’ve had enough of girls, and guys,” she says, sounding exasperated.

“There’s an old horror movie on,” 당신 tell her, trying to take her mind off things.

She glances at the television...

당신 walk along the pier with her, hand in hand, as the wind blows softly. 당신 look over at her and notice how beautiful she looks in the setting sun. 당신 pause briefly and push a stray hair behind her ear and she pulls 당신 in for a kiss. 당신 still can’t believe how undeniably attracted 당신 are to her. If you’d been asked a 월 이전 if you’d ever hook up with a girl, it would have been an emphatic ‘no.’ But then again, a 월 ago, 당신 didn’t know her as anything other than Seth’s boss and sometime girlfriend.

“Hey, Maris,” she says, breaking your thoughts. 당신 smile at her...

당신 walk into the club, standing at the 상단, 맨 위로 of the spiral staircase, watching her give instructions to the few other employees that occupy the floor. 당신 reach up and touch the 심장 목걸이 she gave you, unsure of what you’re about to do. Your 심장 hurts just thinking about it, but it’s the right thing to do, isn’t it? No one is going to accept 당신 two and 당신 can’t take the stress of being rejected 의해 everyone 당신 know and love. 당신 slowly make your way down the stairs, steadying yourself on the handrail. 당신 stop at the bar, waiting for her to turn around.

“Hey you,” she says,...

당신 walk in the front door and before 당신 can close it, she’s standing in front of you.

“Traffic on the way 집 from school,” she says.

“Yeah, mom,” 당신 say, rolling your eyes and walking past her into the kitchen. 당신 weren’t in the mood for her games, 당신 just wanted to show up long enough for her to get off your case and let 당신 go see Alex again.

“I know 당신 weren’t at Summer’s last night,” she calls from the foyer as she comes to meet 당신 in the kitchen.

“Oh really now,” 당신 say, pulling out the 주황색, 오렌지 주스 and taking a drink, not even bothering with a glass.

“Marissa,...

당신 wake up, blinded 의해 the light coming in through the curtains. 당신 don’t open your eyes because 당신 feel arms wrapped around 당신 and you’re scared you’d wake whoever it is. Instead, 당신 sigh and curl up closer, trying to fall back asleep. For some reason, 당신 feel good about yourself, even though 당신 can’t remember where 당신 are, because 당신 know it’s not home. 당신 decide 당신 should probably figure that out, so 당신 open your eyes a little and see the blonde hair that’s across your shoulder and smile. 당신 know exactly where you’re at, and it makes 당신 all warm again. 당신 lean...
