I think for a moment and then I nod my head. I don’t understand how it all fits together, how Angela got it backwards, but I do believe Tyler. I always should have.

“I do and you don’t have to explain anything if you don’t want to, but I am curious as to why Angela would lie like that,” I say.

“She doesn’t realize she is lying,” Tyler tells me. “I had been working late a lot, working weekends, you know what it’s like.” I nod my head. I do know what it’s like. He goes on. “Chloe wasn’t happy about it. She said she understood my business was important to me blah blah blah but at the same time, she still wanted me to spend more time with her. I knew she had a point and that I wasn’t being fair to her. Never being available for her, and I would have hated that if it was the other way around and she kept on choosing work over me every time, so I decided to finish early one Friday afternoon, turn my cell phone off and spend all weekend with her, just the two of us.

“I didn’t tell Chloe. I wanted to surprise her, so I finished work at lunchtime on Friday and went home. I thought she was out when she wasn’t in the living room or the kitchen, so I went upstairs to take a shower. And I found her fucking some other guy in our bed.”

“Oh my God,” I say. “That’s awful. You must have been heart broken.”

“I was. But I was angry too and I wasn’t going to let Chloe play the victim. Yes, I had been neglecting her a bit, but it was for our future. It’s not like I was out drinking with the boys every weekend. I was working for fuck’s sake,” Tyler says. “I told her to pack her shit and get out and that she’d hear from my lawyer about a divorce.

“That should have been the end of it but with Chloe, nothing is ever simple or easy. She decided she didn’t like me standing up for myself and so she started to tell everyone that I was the one who had cheated on her. I know it sounds crazy that everyone, even my own sister and parents believed her, but Chloe was just someone people gravitated towards, someone they liked and trusted. She could be so charming when she wanted to be and playing the victim was her speciality.

“I lost a lot of friends over it because a lot of our friends were mutual friends and even if the guys didn’t really care if I had cheated on Chloe, their girlfriends and wives did and it got to the point where I didn’t want to cause trouble in other people’s relationships, so I stopped even trying,” I say. “And Angela. Angela is a girl’s girl. She is one of those people who believe women regardless of what the actual evidence might say. So, she believed Chloe and no amount of me telling her otherwise would sway her. She didn’t want to fall out with me over it though and eventually, we just agreed to disagree and not mention it again.”

“Wow,” I say. “Chloe sounds like a right bitch.”

“Yeah. I didn’t see it at first obviously, but you’re right, she was,” I say. “But now I’m just glad to be out of that relationship and I’ve made new friends, real friends who can’t be swayed into thinking I am some sort of villain. So, it’s all good. And now I have you. Right?”

“Right,” I agree.

Tyler leans in to kiss me and I move towards him, but at the last minute, he pulls away.

“Wait,” he says. “Are you really sick or was that just something you said to get away from me?”

“A bit of both,” I admit. “But it wasn’t a bug. I just felt sick at the thought of you with someone else. And I’ve showered and brushed my teeth since then.”

He laughs softly.

“Good to know,” he says, and then he kisses me, and I feel as though everything is right in the world again. Everything that is except for one thing. I pull back from the kiss.

“You’re not going to tell Angela I told you what she told me are you? Just I really liked her, and I don’t want there to be any animosity between us,” I say. “And she only answered my questions. I was the one who brought it up.”

Tyler shakes his head.

“My lips are sealed. Let’s just put all of this behind us,” he says.

He kisses me and I nod my agreement as we kiss. I genuinely don’t think I could be happier than I am right now.

TYLER

As I kiss Summer, I think about how close I came to losing her today. The thought of losing her makes me hold her tighter. I never ever want to risk losing her again. Especially not over a misunderstanding. It was a little bit ironic that I almost lost her because of something I was doing to hide the thing that I thought would make me lose her, when actually that wouldn’t have bothered her.

I still can’t believe she thought I was cheating on her, but at the same time, I suppose I have to admit that it made sense from her point of view. She had no idea that someone cheating on me had ripped my life apart, so she had no reason to think I was so against cheating. And then add that to the lies and the secrecy and the fact my own sister can’t see the truth of what happened with Chloe and me and feels the need to do the sisterhood thing and warn anyone who might get close to me that I’m a cheater, and yeah, I can definitely see why Summer got the wrong end of the stick.

The one good thing to come out of it though is it has brought us closer in that neither of us want to lie to each other or hide things from each other anymore and I think that can only be a good thing. I will do everything in my power to make sure I never lose Summer, but if I do, at least this way, I will know it was my own dumb fault and not a misunderstanding if anything does go wrong between us.

Summer moans low in her throat as I kiss her neck. Her moan pulls me out of my head and back into the moment and I decide that’s where I want to stay. I don’t want to dwell on the past and keep thinking about almost losing Summer. I want to think about the here and now, and appreciate the fact that Summer is in my arms as well as in my head.

I slide to the ground off the couch and move to face Summer. I smile up at her and she smiles back at me, her eyes full of lust. She lifts her ass before I even get hold of her waist band ready to peel her clothes off of her. I love how eager she is for my touch, and I feel a jolt of desire flood me. I pull her pajama bottoms off and throw them to one side and then I pull her forward, so she’s perched on the edge of the couch.

I push her knees apart and crawl between them and then I move my face closer to her. I run my tongue through her lips from her clit to her pussy and back again. She shivers, her body shaking slightly beneath me. I lick her again, teasing her and savoring the salty taste of her. I stop teasing her and concentrate on licking her clit. I press down on it with my tongue and move it from side to side. Summer moans and presses herself against my face.

I suck her clit into my mouth, and she moans again. I suck on it, stretching it and tugging it. I nibble gently on it and Summer writhes beneath me, her feet coming off the floor. She makes a whimpering sound that spurs me on, and I suck her clit again. Finally, I release her clit from my mouth and go back to licking it. I lick and lick until I know she is more than ready for her climax and then I run my tongue backwards through her slit and to her pussy.

I gently lick around her opening and then I push my tongue inside of her and move my head back and forth, thrusting into her with my tongue. She cries out in pleasure, and she takes my head in her hands, holding onto my hair and tugging it. The stinging feeling in my scalp is nice and it shows me how much Summer is loving this, which spurs me on to make her feel every bit of her orgasm.
