Is he going to share that video? Or the photo of me?

You just made me explode. He sends half a minute or so later.You looked so damn captivating when you finished. I just wish I could be the one making you do it.

Eli… can I ask you something?

Of course.

I take a breath, knowing I’ll need to go to the bathroom to clean up soon. My panties feel sticky, my sex is sore, but in a good way, and a contented feeling takes hold of me.

Can you delete those photos and videos?

I’ll do it right now.

Do you want me to do the same?I ask.

It’s your choice, he replies.But I get why you wouldn’t want photos of you out there. It’s done. I’ve deleted them.

Promise?

Maybe this may come across as needy, but I have to push past the instinct to criticize myself.

With Eli, it feels like I can put myself out there more….

But I have to be careful not to put myself out theretoomuch.

I swear, I’d never betray your trust. You have my word.

CHAPTER10

Elias

I sit in my office at the school, attempting to focus as I walk one of the students through a math problem.

She’s a young woman, perhaps around Della’s age, wearing an outfit that seems slightly inappropriate for studying.

I withhold judgment since it’s not my place to decide what people wear.People…yeah, but when I claim my woman with more than texts, I’ll have a say then.

I’ll make sure she keeps certain parts of herself hidden, just for me, the same way I wouldn’t want to share parts of myself with others.

But this woman can wear what she wants. I have no claim to her.

I ignore the niggling thought telling me I don’t have a claim to Della.

Last night, after deleting the video and photo, we texted some more about her so-called friend. I learned her name, Jess, and dozens of little snippets into their twisted ‘friendship.’

Jess had a sneaky way of complimenting me,Della told me.She’d always make it sound like a compliment on one level, but there was always a slight dig in there. But she was clever about it. She always did it in such a way that I wasn’t sure. I was always doubting myself and downplaying my own feelings. I know this probably seems like silly high school stuff.

No,I responded, gritting my teeth as rage flared in me.You don’t have to downplay your feelings with me, Della. You never have to do that.

I realize I’ve drifted off.

The student – her name is Lisa or Luna, I think – is looking at me, mouth opening and closing. Her words come through a fog of memory.

After deleting Della’s video and photo – I’d die before betraying her trust – all I wanted was to find her physically.

I even told her that much.

My brother’s here, she responded.I’m not sure how he’d react. Maybe we should take it a bit slower?
