“Well, no,” I admitted. “We haven’t talked about it, but…c’mon, Kenzlee.”

“What?”

“Hunter never would have slept with me had he been sober?” I argued. “He’s never looked at me like that before, and instead of respecting that we’re just friends, I threw myself at him, knowing that it doesn’t take men much to cave.”

“Alex, this is Hunter Finley that we’re talking about,” she replied. “Since when have you known Hunter to ever do anything that he didn’t want to do. Hunter is not a follower, Alex.”

“Oh, please,” I snorted. “Most men will follow a naked girl to a bed without much thought.”

“Hunter’s not thirteen with his first erection, Alex,” she chided. “That boy has seen enough action not to succumb to a pretty face or hot body.”

“True, but this is a big deal, Kenz,” I told her.

“I agree,” she replied. “However, you can’t keep avoiding him, Alex. You’re going to have to talk to him about it. At least, you’re going to have to if you want to remain friends.”

“What if I want to be more than just friends?” I asked sadly.

“Oh, Alex,” she whispered.

“I wish I could say that it was the sex that had me feeling this way, but it’s not,” I told her. “I started liking Hunter before we had sex, and…and now I don’t know what to do.”

“You’re going to hate me, but I have to ask.”

“What?”

“Was the sex hot?”

“While I might not have anyone else to compare him to, if it gets any better than Hunter Finley, then I’ll never survive it,” I admitted.

Kenzlee chuckled. “Wow.”

“Yep.”

After a few seconds of silence, she said, “Look, you’ve never been one to pull any punches, so my advice is to just talk to him. Tell him that you’re sorry, then go from there. Since Hunter’s not a dick, I can’t see him not being honest right back.”

“True,” I agreed.

“The worst thing that can happen is that he doesn’t feel the same way about you that you feel about him, but the truth is a lot better than the unknown,” she pointed out.

“It just sucks,” I muttered.

“Yeah, love isn’t for the weak,” she agreed.

“Okay, enough about me,” I said, trying to shake off my regret and uncertainty. “How are things going with you?”

“Do you really think that I’m going to let you get away from telling me how your first time was, Alexandria Grant?” she asked sternly.

“I guess not,” I mumbled.

“You guessed right,” she huffed, and so I told her everything.

Chapter 11

The opportunities that we need.

Alexandria~

With no calls or texts from Hunter, I had managed to avoid him all day yesterday, and I didn’t care if that made me a coward. I still hadn’t figured out what I wanted to say to him yet, so I was biding my time until I could come up with something that would make him not hate me.
