.
” Hey, champ.” I greet hero and sit on the counter stool opposite his.
He looks up at me with his cigarette in between his l-ips. He smiles at me.
” What?” He chuckles.
” You’re Hero. And a Hero is a champion.” I tell him and shrug. I look down at the plate of toast on top of the counter. It doesn’t look that bad actually.
” That’s one of the worst definition I’ve ever heard.” He says and I playfully glare at him.
” You made this?” I ask referring to the toast.
” Hero can’t cook.” Judah says as he walks past his kitchen door.
” F-ck you, man.” Hero tells him.
” I bet that taste like shit though.” I hear Judah mutters and he chuckles quietly. The front door shuts and I assume he’s outside, standing on his porch smoking a cigarette.
” You can cook right?” I pout at Hero.
” Sometimes. I s-ck at it truly, Judah is better.” He says and I pick up a toast.
” Who knew the big bad man can actually cook.” I smile and take a bite from Hero’s toast.
He watches me as I chew on the toast. At least it doesn’t taste like shit. He tried, I mean for a guy like him.
” Wow. Not that bad. You tried, even if it’s not that perfect.”
” At least someone appreciated my cooking. Judah is always so annoying. Always saying shit about my cooking.” Hero says.
” And that’s because it tastes like shit, you idiot.” Judah says from outside.
” You don’t have to be mean to him.” I shout. ” It’s not like you can cook better anyway.”
Judah chuckles silently.
” Don’t mind the assh-le.” I say as I stand up to search through his fridge.
” So you guys are together now?” He asks.
” No. We’re just…” I sigh and look for any juice in here. Nothing, just bottle water.
” We’re not in a relationsh¡p.” I say and grab a bottle water instead.
” Why is his fridge filled with water? Not even one juice.”
” That’s what he drinks, water.” Hero says and points his thumb outside.
” Beers?”
” Judah doesn’t drink. Always with water instead.”
” What the! Woah. Is he a recovering alcoholic?” I ask, a little quietly for Judah not to hear.
” F-ck, no. He just don’t like it.”
” Not for once?”
” You’re curious, aren’t you?”
I sigh and nod. I open my bottle water and gulp a little.
” You should ask him yourself sometimes.”
” He won’t tell. Always so secretive.” I say and pick up another toast.
” True. He went to rehab one time and that’s like years ago.”
” Why?”
” He was always getting drunk considering the fact that he lost a lot.”
” His parents included right?”
Hero nods. I sigh.
” Wait, who told you that? The parents story?” I noticed his voice is a little quiter than usual.
” He did. Today. We went out today and he told me about it.”
” What the! Damn. That means you might mean a lot to him. I’ve heard that story but not from Judah. We’ve been friends for like five years now and he didn’t say what happened to his parents. He’s a f-ck head.” Hero smiles.
” That’s…”
” Alright, time’s up Jess. You’ve asked enough.” Judah says from outside. I hear his front door shut and he appears beside the kitchen door. Eyes staring at me.
Hero pretends not to notice as he flicks his cigarette on the ashtray.
” We were just introducing each other.” I defend and fight back my smile.
Judah rolls his eyes.
” That’s enough introducing, let’s take you home. You should go to bed, considering you have class and you are taking the bus tomorrow.”
F-ck! I totally forgot I left my car at school and hop into Judah’s today. I gro-n and eat the last piece of the toast as I stand up.
” Thanks Hero. You cook great.” I smile at him and he smiles back.
Judah huffs and grabs my wrist as he walks me out. It’s already nightfall and the neighborhood is extremely quiet. That’s one of the reasons I moved in here not until Judah moved next door to me with his noisy life. We stand on his porch as he stares at me with his hands in his pockets.
” I was just curious to know a little about you. I’m sorry I was a little nosy.”
He doesn’t answer as he looks at me. Shit!
” It’s nice you knew that was nosy. Flings don’t ask personal questions about each other.”
” I hate it when you make it obvious that I’m just your slam-piece.” I say and turn to walk down his porch.
Judah drags me back with my hoodie.
” What?” I snap at him.
” I should walk you home.” He says and gestures for me to start walking.
I scoff and shove my hands in,side my hoodie pockets.
” But why are you so secretive? Even to your own friend.” I say as we walk down the sidewalk.
” The fact that you don’t like talking about every shit that took place in your life, doesn’t make you secretive. And if that’s your own definition of secretive, you should probably listen properly in class.”
” What?” I swat his shoulder and he laughs at me.
” That wasn’t nice of you to say.” I tell him as we stop in front my apartment.
” Goodnight, neighbor.”
He smiles and mumbles out. ” Goodnight.”
None of us make a move to walk away.
” I’m waiting, Julie. Go in,side.” He smirks at me.
” Yeah.” I mutter and turn to go in,side only to feel Judah presence behind me.
I turn around to look at him, Judah surprises me by k-ssing me. My hands grip to his shirt as i stand on my toes and desperately k-ss him back. Judah leans me against my door as his hands brush my body. A bright flashlight shines on our faces as we pull apart.
” Can you guys get a room already, Serena.” Mama Gina says. She lives next to my apartment and she’s aged. She stays alone and barely comes out except when her granddaughter comes around to help her.
” Is that Judah? The handsome man who brought problems to our neighborhood?”
Judah smirks and looks away as she shines her flashlight on his face.
” We’re sorry, Gina. We’re just going in,side.” I tell her. I see her smile at me under the faint illumination of her bulb outside her apartment.
I drag Judah in,side my apartment.
” You won’t believe I don’t know that lady.” Judah says as he shuts my door.
” You don’t know a lot of people.” I say and walk to my kitchen. Judah follows me behind.
” So why pull me into your apartment?” He asks.
I smile and turn around to look at him. Seriously, I don’t why I did that. Maybe because I’m scared he’s gonna act different when it’s dawn. Judah smirks at me and watches me.
” I don’t know.”
He pulls me to himself with the hem of my hoodie. I hopelessly walk to him.
” You could just ask, you know that right?” He whispers.
” Ask what?”
” That I should spend the night and not drag me in,side your apartment.”
I bite my lip and fiddle with the hem of hoodie. He swats my hand away.
” Quit that, it makes you look eighteen.” He says. His forefinger lifts up my chin to look up at him.
” You’re beautiful.” He whispers, tucking my hair behind my ear.
Judah grabs my butt through the material of my leggings as he pulls me closer to him to feel him through his jeans. I silently mo-n when he k-sses my neck. Judah turns me around so my back is pressed against his chest. His l-ips adores my neck and I’m already mo-ning.
His hand slides under my hoodie as his hands carresses my stomach to my b-obies. His hand slide past my sports b-ra and he grabs my br-ast. I mo-n and shudder in his grasp. Judah gro-ns as he twists my n-pple in between his fingers. His teeth graze my neck as his thumb circles my n-pple.
” Judah…” I mo-n his name.
Judah k-sses my earlobe as his hands slip out of my sports b-ra down the wa-istline of my leggings. His hand slide past my p-nties and he’s touching me.
” F-ck…” he gro-ns against my neck as he thr-sts me with his fingers.
My leg tightens on its own but that doesn’t stop Judah. His fingers thr-sts in and out of me. I feel my wetness against his fingers as he thr-sts me with it. My stomach tightens as my orgasm builds up. I shut my eyes and breathe in. Judah pulls his hand out. He turns me around to look at him.
” I should go to bed, it’s late.” He k-sses my forehead.
” Why not spend the night?” I bite my lip and look up at him.
He smirks. ” I can’t.” He pecks my lip and smiles at me. ” You feel good. Can’t wait to feel you myself.” He whispers against my l-ips as he turns to leave.
……
” Did the bad guy gave you that hickey?” Thomas asks as he smirks at me.
I blush and drag up my turtle neck sweater.
” It’s pretty obvious.” Chloe smiles.
” Okay, I’m right here alright?” I giggle.
” Are you guys like dating now?” Chloe asks.
I sigh and look around school’s library. I shrug and turn to look at them.
” No, we’re not.”
” He gave you hickeys Serena.” Thomas says.
” That doesn’t mean anything.”
” Okay, I get it. You’re two adult neighbors having s€× with each other. Am I right?” He asks and raises his brows.
” We’re not having s€×, for now.” I defend. Chloe burst into fits of laughter.”
” What?” I chuckle.
” Nothing. It’s kinda weird you’re overthinking this s€× with benefits stuff. You’re an adult, it’s no big deal. You don’t have to be shy about it.”
” So says the girl who had her first k-ss at twenty.” Thomas says as Chloe swats his arm.
” That’s so embarrassing.” She says and blushes.
” And the dude was g-y. Found out he doesn’t like women.” Thomas continues as Chloe smack him again.
I burst into laughter. The janitor stares at us as she gestures for us to bring it down. I silently apologize.
” Chloe, you don’t have to be shy about it.” I tell her.
” It’s so embarrassing.” She mutters and cups her cheek with both her hands.
” It’s not. We all once had this worst moments. I mean Tom can’t even tell Bree he likes her.” I wink at him. He scrunches his face and sighs.
” That’s different.” He says.
” It’s not.” I point at him. ” You see we all once had our moments. It’s also embarrassing too. So Chloe, was it Daniel? The baseball player?” I raise my brows at her.
” Yeah, that’s the one.”
” How the f-ck did that happened?” I ask her.
” It’s a long terrible story. But I’m gonna cut it short…” Chloe states but Thomas beats her to it.
” He was drunk at a frat party and he told her she was beautiful. That was all it took. Later, Daniel realized he doesn’t like women. Sad.” Thomas says. Chloe rolls her eyes.
” I hate you, Tom.”
” You know that ain’t true. Trust me friend, you’re gonna find yourself a more better crush.” Thomas smiles and wraps his arms around Chloe’s shoulder. She glares at him and he moves away laughing.
” You guys look cute together. You should probably date each other.” I tease them.
” No way.”
” No f-cking way. Chloe’s crazy, I can’t deal with crazy.” Thomas says and I giggle.
Bree walks in with Dawson, one of Todd’s friends. She smiles at me and walks to our table as she sits next to me. Dawson waves at me and go to the shelves to get a book.
” Hi, guys.” She says and we smile at her. I notice Thomas cringe on his s₱0t.
” I missed you Serena.” She says.
” Thanks, I missed you too though. How was class?”
” Good. I’ve been taking extra classes since I’ve been lagging behind terribly.” She sighs and looks at Thomas who won’t stop staring at her.
” Uh… Bree, are you still single?” I ask Bree.
Chloe pretends to cough as she looks at me from under her lashes.
” Yeah. Who wants to know?” Bree asks.
” I’m sorry, Tom.” I whisper and wink at him and turn to look at Bree. I hear Thomas silently plea.
” He likes you. Like he has a huge crush on you since first year of college and he doesn’t have the balls to tell you.” I say.
” Oh God, shoot me.” Thomas mutters.
I gesture for Chloe to leave with me. We pack our items and leave both of them alone. I turn around to look at them and Thomas can’t meet Bree’s eyes.
” Silly.” I mutter.
” Tom is gonna die of stroke just sitting close to Bree.”
” And I just made things a little easier.” I tell her on our way out of school’s library..
” And maybe a little h-rder.”
We walk out of school premises and Todd’s the first person I stumbled upon. He looks a little paler than usual. He looks at me as a small smile creeps upon his l-ips.
” Serena.”
When was he discharged?
” Hi, Todd.”
” Can we talk? Please, I really need to tell you something.” He says as he begs with his eyes. He look so vulnerable.
” Alright.”
” Private. I mean, we won’t go anywhere if you don’t want to, but your friend can actually excuse us.”
Chloe turns to look at me. I nod at her and she walks to a corner.
” I’m sorry.” Was the first thing that comes out of Todd’s mouth.
” I was a jerk and a mean one at that. I wasn’t thinking properly. I was desperate and I was angry because you were leaving me. I couldn’t face it, you walking out of my life.”
” And you decide to attack me and then slammed my head against my car.”
He is ashamed as he looks away from me.
” Todd, we can’t.”
” Serena, please, I’m sorry, I don’t know what got into me. I can’t imagine my life without you. I can’t do without you. Please I want you to give me a chance. Please I wanna be better for you.”
” No, Todd.”
” Why Serena? What about us? I’m sorry for what I did. I didn’t mean to, I wasn’t thinking and I’m sorry. Let me be better for you, Serena.”
I sigh. He’s not getting it. We can’t be together. We can’t even work out. We’re always fighting, going our separate ways and amending our issues again. This can’t work. Before I can reply Todd, he holds my wrists as he plea.
” Serena, don’t leave me. I can’t imagine me without you.”
I sigh and look around school’s lot. I should get out of here. I can’t do this, not with Todd.
” Todd, no.” I tell him calmly. He’s still holding my wrist.
I look away from his vulnerable eyes and look anywhere but him. My eyes settle on this familiar delinquent. He’s just getting out of his car as he glares at Todd’s back. His eyes moves from Todd’s back and he looks at Todd’s hand around my wrist.
Oh shit!
” Judah?”
……..
Damn, what do you think is gonna happen next? How I miss Todd 😎😎
