Katelyn: Sleep is important.

Brendan: We need to talk. Can we do that, Katelyn?

Three dots appeared, disappeared and reappeared, only to disappear again. Then nothing.

He closed his eyes and leaned back against the headboard, languidly stroking himself just to maintain his erection. Keep himself on edge. He’d almost given up entirely on her answering when the phone finally vibrated beside him.

Katelyn: What do we have to talk about?

He smiled.

Brendan: Us

Katelyn: There is no us

Yes, sweet girl, there is.

Katelyn: I’m seeing someone and I’m not a cheater. We have nothing to talk about.

That answered that question, not that it mattered to him very much. It wouldn’t be for much longer if he had anything to say about it.

Brendan: So he’s your boyfriend now?

Katelyn: I guess so

His jaw ticked as he silently seethed.

Brendan: You guess so? Either he is or he isn’t. He touch you?

Why the fuck did he ask her that when he already knew the answer? He saw them plainly enough in the alley that night sucking face. The sight of that guy with his hand up her sweater sliced through his gut.

Katelyn: What I do or who I see isn’t your concern. I got your message loud and clear.

Wrong, sweetheart. It concerns me very much.

Brendan: You fuck him?

She better not have.

She was his. And so was that sweet virgin pussy.

The three dots did their dance across the screen again.

Brendan: Answer me

Katelyn: Would it matter if I have?

Yes.

Brendan: No

Katelyn: I haven’t

Relieved, he expelled the air from his lungs.

Brendan: We’re going to talk, Katelyn. So don’t be giving some punk what’s mine. And don’t even think for a minute it’s not, because trust me, sweet girl, it is.

She didn’t respond to him after that. No dots. Just crickets. That was okay. He was certain she got that message loud and clear.
