Page 61 of Falling Too Late

My hand touched something soft and smooth. It was black and oblong.

“What the. . .” I turned it over in my hand, found two small bumps, and pressed one. Nothing happened until it started to vibrate in my hand.

A vibrator.

What the fuck was Wren doing with a vibrator?

I pulled out the chair and got down on my hands and knees, looking for what else I heard fell. Under the desk was a black plastic sack. I pulled it out and opened it.

Condoms, lube, a book on sex, and a vibrator.

The only thing that kept my sanity in place was the fact that the seal on the condom box had not been opened. I put everything back on her chair, leaving her room.

I finished getting dressed and then locked up the house, heading to the bar.

It had only been a week since Wren and I talked about her dating people, and I swear it had been the worst week of my life. My temper was flaring more these days and now I find sex shit in her room.

Sex toys that she could be using with someoneelse.

Fuck that.

The floodgates were open now. Knowing she was ready to start dating flipped a switch in my brain. She was ready to date. She wanted to have sex. Her words gave me permission to think of her as more than just my friend, and it was driving me mad.??

Wren Jacobson was mine.

Troy and Gavin had carpooled to Dave’s bar together. I pulled into the lot and parked next to them. As soon as I walked inside, I started looking for her, but I didn’t see her. While I was searching, Gavin motioned for me to come over.?

“So, what did you do?” Troy said as he handed me a beer while I was walking up to the table he’d procured.??

“What are you talking about?”??

Troy gestured around us. “You’re joking, right?”?

“Seriously, Alex, what did you do?” Gavin spoke up now.??

“You two areseriouslygetting on my nerves.” I took a drink. “I didn’t do anything.”??

“Yeah, right. She’s going to bring one of her friends? All her friends are right here. There is no one else allowed in our little group other than Bonnie, and Bonnie has Sammie, so she’s never out with us. So, what did you do?”?

“I’m telling you guys; I didn’t do anything,” I growled out.??

“Do you think he asked her out finally?” Troy said.?

“Yeah, that has to be what happened.” Gavin slapped his hand to his head dramatically.?

“She totally turned him down.”??

“Had to have, that’s why he’s been so pissy this week.”?

“And spacey,” Troy said. The two of them formed a half-circle and were loudly whispering to each other but were also making sure I heard everything.??

It was hard to stay mad with them here. A smile pushed its way to my face and I shook my head. “Alright, you two, let’s get agame going.” Gavin racked the balls and Troy grabbed some pool sticks.??

We got through two rounds before I heard familiar giggling.??

My eyes landed on Wren as she walked up. She had clearly already been drinking. I stood there, shocked. She hadn’t gotten drunk in years.?

“There she is!” Troy set his pool stick down and rushed over to her, throwing an arm over her shoulder. “You look like you have already had some drinks.”??
