Fear Me

“Dick what?” I swear I could not keep up with Sheldon’s vocabulary. Every day she had a new word to describe something. It was usually sex.
She grinned. “Don’t worry it has nothing on the power of the pussy. You just have to know how to use it. So you guys official?”
“No.”
“That means yes. Keiran doesn’t do dates.”
I rolled my eyes. “That doesn’t mean we are dating.”
“Oh it means. Trust me, Lake. You’re dealing with a special kind of male here. You’re dating.”
“My aunt is going to kill me. She wants me to date but I know she didn’t expect this. I felt so guilty; not to mention scared.”
“Losing your v-card?” I nodded. “At least your eighteen. You’re an adult. Anyway, parents are never ready for their kids to cross that line. I was sixteen when I first did it.”
“Was it with Keenan?”
“Yeah,” she sighed with a dreamy look in her eyes.
“Were you scared?”
“Absolutely. It was unexpected and was after our first breakup when I found out he made out with Jessica Stanton at a party. Dash was actually the one to tell me about it. They beat the brakes off each other over it.”
“How are they still friends?”
“Hell if I know. Men don’t hold grudges like women do I guess. Dash stayed out of it after I took Keenan back the third time.” Her voice lowered and she sounded sad so I let her have a moment. I thought about what Keiran had planned for me later tonight when we were alone and felt a shiver run through my body.
“Do you still get scared?”
“Yeah but I never tell him no because I know he wouldn’t hurt me. He can be an animal,” she grinned. “And sometimes I guess the need just overtakes him. He gets in these moods…” She trailed off and looked lost in thought.
Before I could find out more the guys came back, each with popcorn and drinks. I was curious about what Sheldon meant and knew there was a story there. Keiran sat on my left while Keenan sat on Sheldon’s right, leaving us in the middle. The lights dimmed and the previews started to roll so I settled into my seat for the movie.
“I got it loaded with butter.” He sat the popcorn in my lap before slumping down in his seat and spreading his legs apart in a lazy yet sexy pose. He let his head rest against the back of the seat and looked me up and down.
“Thanks,” I smiled at him but he didn’t return my smile. Instead he turned to the screen and stared broodingly at the screen.
I frowned but hesitated only a second before deciding to say something. I gave my body to him; I wasn’t allowed to be afraid of him anymore.
“Something wrong?” He continued to stare at the screen, ignoring me. He didn’t look angry but his body language screamed ‘disinterested’. I leaned forward and waved my hand in front of his face. Still nothing. I then snapped my fingers twice to get his attention. “Hey…I’m talking to you. That means you say something back.”
“Atta girl.” I heard Sheldon say and snicker quietly.
He finally turned to me, a frown marring his features. “What?” he asked coldly. I drew back in surprise for a moment before regaining my composure.
“If you’re going to act like an ass for no reason then you can just take me home. Now.”
“That’s all I want to do is get you home.”
“Then why did you bring me here?” I felt tears burning the back of my eyelids but I refused to let them fall. Not this time.
He let out an aggravated breath. “Hell if I know.”
“Then by all means lets end this date now.” I bit out the word date and felt the sneer transform my face. “I wouldn’t want you to feel obligated.”
“Are you this stupid on purpose or can you really not help it?”
“Don’t call me stupid. I’m not stupid. Or maybe I am because I’m sitting here with you right now.” I stood up before he could say anything else and left for the lobby, almost tripping over Sheldon and Keenan.
I heard him spit out a harsh curse and Sheldon call him a ‘dumb dickhead’ before I burst through the doors. The bright lights of the lobby almost blinded me or maybe it was the hot liquid spilling down my cheeks.
Fuck. I said I wouldn’t do that.
I contemplated walking home before I realized I wasn’t that stupid and headed for the restroom. I pushed inside and pulled out my cell phone to call Willow for a ride.
“Aren’t you supposed to be on a date with Mr. Tall, Dark, and Evil right now?”
“He’s being a jerk. Can you pick –” That was all I got to say before the phone was plucked from my hands. Keiran ended the call and stuck my phone in his pocket. Big surprise there.
“What are you doing in the girls’ bathroom?” I hurriedly tried to wipe my cheeks before he could see that I had been crying. He took my hands away and used his own to gently clean my face.
“I came to apologize and this is the men’s bathroom.” My eyes widened and I looked around and noticed the urinals before squeezing my eyes shut in embarrassment. Could I be anymore of a dork?
“Go. Away.” I backed up until my back touched the wall, needing space between us, but he only followed.
“No.”
“You’re not my favorite person right now.”
“That’s okay because I can guarantee you’ll change your mind the next time I get my dick in you.”
She grinned. “Don’t worry it has nothing on the power of the pussy. You just have to know how to use it. So you guys official?”
“No.”
“That means yes. Keiran doesn’t do dates.”
