23. River #2
“Okay, now that everyone is on the same page, can we continue?” Rowan asks.
“No, we are certainly not on the same page!” Ellie says before leaning against the desk. “How…?”
“I lied about my age… we didn’t know until the first day of school,” Sloane explains.
“And you’re here at eleven o’clock at night because…?” Ellie asks, and I can see her slowly piecing the story together.
“We got caught at homecoming.”
“How?! Was he your date?” she asks sarcastically.
I give her a blank stare. “Yes, Elianna, we decided tonight was the night we were going to come out to the entire school,” I reply with equal sarcasm.
“I mean, that actually seems like that was your plan,” Rowan grumbles.
“We got caught fooling around in a bathroom.” I sigh.
Ellie puts a hand over her mouth in horror. “BY WHO?”
“Another guy… well, my date. But we just went as friends,” Sloane says, putting her hands up. “I swear I’m not dating this guy. I really care about River. I know you guys may not like me, but I am fully prepared to take the blame for all of this.”
“Well, unfortunately, it’s not that simple.” Rowan says. “You can’t take the blame when no one blames you.”
“And no, honey, we don’t dislike you. You are not the problem here,” she says before shooting me a glare. “You know better.”
“Yes, I’m aware. Thanks, Mom.” I retort in the same way a child might to their parents.
“She is part of the problem,” Rowan says. “Her lies put all of this in motion.”
Ellie scrunches her nose. “Okay, well, given that he knew her lies on the first day of school, them getting caught a month later is no longer a direct correlation to her lie,” Ellie says.
“Mom, Dad? Can you not talk about us like we aren’t in the room? Thanks.” I interject.
“We should get in front of this, but we don’t know if this student is even going to say anything.
” Rowan starts. “And it’s not just about him reporting you.
You have to worry about him telling anyone.
A friend. A sibling. A pen pal online. Any of those people could make trouble for you,” he says, leaning back in his chair.
“I’ll quit.”
“Might be best at this point. Maybe if you quit before he tells anyone, he’ll just let it go.”
“I hate this. You quitting would crush the entire school. The guys on the football team. Everyone needs you, and you’re the only one who can do what you do for the school.
” Sloane tells me and I can see the empathy in her eyes over what this would do to me and also the school.
“I can talk to Mack,” she continues. “Try to talk some sense into him. You being here is beneficial for him too. Scouts are swarming this school, and specifically him, because of what you made this team. Obviously, they are all talented, but who knows if their talent would have been nurtured the same without you there.”
Ellie, who is now sitting in one of the chairs in front of Rowan’s desk, with her feet propped up on the chair, nods her head vigorously.
“I would go to the school tomorrow and take anything you want in case you are not let back onto school property by Monday.” Rowan tells me.
I nod, the reality of the situation settling in that I may not have a job on Monday. More than that, I may be under a serious investigation.
We’re back at my house later that night, sitting on my couch in the living room. She had a glass of wine, and I had a glass of whiskey. “Can you tell me what you’re thinking?” she murmurs.
How did I get here? A week ago, I was so sure I was never going to touch her again, and tonight, I fucked her in a bathroom on school grounds.
“How did I get here, really?” I ask before taking a long sip of my drink, letting it burn the entire way down.
“Well, I can tell you how you got here,” she says sadly, and when I look toward her, she’s staring down at her drink.
“Hey… hey.” I tilt her chin up gently with my index and middle fingers. “I don’t blame you.”
“I blame myself.”
“I did not have to press you about coming to the bathroom upstairs. I did not have to chaperone the dance. I could have not given in at all, and just kept you at arm’s length until you graduated.
” I drag my thumb over her bottom lip. “I made those decisions, alright? Me. You didn’t make me do them.
Ellie is right. Your lying is not to blame for everything that’s transpired since I forgave you for those lies. ”
“I am sorry for it, though.”
“I know. And I want to be with you more than I want to be mad at you for lying to me.” I give her a stern look. “But don’t do it again, though.”
“No, I would never.” She shakes her head. “So… you’re not rethinking if all of this was worth it? If I’m worth it?”
“You’re worth everything, Sloane Hunter.”
She smiles at me, her eyes twinkling and gorgeous like there were actual stars in them. “You want that dance, now?”
An hour later, Sloane is sitting on my face while her mouth is wrapped around my dick. We hadn’t even made it to my bedroom before we started, opting for the floor of my living room after we’d danced to Aerosmith’s I Don’t Want to Miss a Thing.
I pull back and murmur against her pussy. “You looked so fucking beautiful tonight.”
She pulls off of my dick with what sounds like a wet pop. “You looked really fucking good too. A lot of the girls were joking about asking you to dance. It really pissed me off.” I can’t see her but I am picturing a sexy scowl across her gorgeous face.
“I never would have done that. Even if it wouldn’t be totally inapprorpriate, you know I’m yours, don’t you?” She doesn’t say anything so I tug on her hair, pulling it gently. “Answer Daddy.”
She moans in response and rubs her pussy against my mouth. That’s my girl. “I know you’re mine.”
“Good.” I rub her gently before sliding my tongue through her sex again. “This pussy owns me.” I’m about to put my lips on her again but she turns around and rests her wet cunt on my pelvis just behind my dick. “Put me in.”
She wastes no time sliding down my dick so slow I feel her clenching around me harder with every inch. “Shit, baby. You already got me there.”
She leans over and pushes her lips to mine while continuing to fuck me slowly. “I know this is what you were trying to avoid this whole time and I’m sorry I pushed this…” I feel wetness on my cheeks and when I pull her face back, I see that tears have started to fall down her face.
“Hey, none of that. I’m here and nothing is going to change between us. Whatever happens at this point, I still want this with you.”
