Page 5 of My Downfall

“A guy, I don’t really swing the other way.”

“A boyfriend?”Is he jealous?

“No. I don’t do the boyfriend thing.”

“You know this guy?”

“Never met him before.”

“Fuck,” he bites out as his grip tightens on my arm. “You can’t just go off with a stranger.”

“I assure you, I can. That’s exactly what the app’s for.”

“You met him on an app?”

“Mmhmm. Now, unless you’re the one who wants to try and find my clit, I suggest you let go of my arm and carry on with your evening.”

He holds my stare for a beat, then another, and I honestly have a moment of wondering if he’s going to take me up on my offer. My pulse pounds at the thought, but then, much to my disappointment, he lets me go.

“Your friends know where you’re going?”

“Always.” I salute him before turning away and heading to where I’m meeting my hookup for the night. I already know it won’t be his face I’ll be seeing, though. No, it’s the man I just walked away from that I’ll be picturing tonight.

***

Another disappointment.

Another man who can’t find a woman’s clit.

Another man who focuses on his own pleasure before his partner’s.

Even picturing Hudson didn’t help. I’m orgasmless and more wound up than I was before.

I think I need to join a convent.

Chapter Four

Hudson

I didn’t sleep at all last night. I couldn’t.

I kept picturing her with some asshole, lying under him as he thrust into her and crying out his name as he gave her the orgasms I so desperately want to be giving her.

I am so fucking screwed.

I need to keep my distance from her as much as possible. No interactions. No responding to her taunts. Nothing.

I have five minutes until class starts. Five minutes where I tell myself I won’t say a word to her.

“I take it from the look on your face he didn’t find your clit?”Well fucking done, Hudson. That’s exactly how we ignore someone. It’s also exactly how you get fired, that or end up with a restraining order against you.

Her feet stumble as she comes to a stop by my desk. “Come again?”

“I don’t think you came once, let alone again.”For fuck’s sake, Hudson.

“You seem very interested in my sex life.” She cocks her head at me. “You wish you’d have taken me home last night? You think you could have done better?”
