Chapter 3
I lay by myself on the roof for a few minutes, trying to wrap my head around what just happened. “Maybe he’s gay” I think to myself, “no maybe he was just drunk”. Either way I’m fucking pissed.
I crawl back through the window and walk downstairs. I try to quickly make it out the door but I’m stopped by Mike screaming from the other room: “YO CONNER! WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?!“
“Just upstairs smoking,” I respond, looking back at him.
“What’s wrong?” He asked, concerned. My night must show on my face more than I thought it did.
“Nothing man. I’m just tired. I’ll see you tomorrow.” I say as I brush past him, out the door.
“PARTY POOPER” Mike yells from the doorframe.
I start walking back to the dorm, thinking about what I’ll say if Peter is there. I convince myself that he won’t be there. He probably went to that girl’s house. I don’t care. (I do).
——-
I push open the door and, unexpectedly, Peter is sitting on his bed doing something on his laptop. I slam the door closed.
“What the fuck was that man?!” I yell.
Peter smirks and shuts his computer. “I’m not sure I know what you’re talking about,” he responds.
“You know, thirty minutes ago, when you kissed me?” I say as I kick off my shoes, crossing my arms across my chest.
“You said I was homophobic. I’m not.” Peter responds, shrugging his shoulders as if that’s a perfectly reasonable reason to kiss your roommate out of nowhere.
“You can’t just go around kissing random people out of nowhere.”
Peter’s eyebrows raise, and his brown eyes have that glint to them again. He gets off of his bed, taking a step towards me. “Who said it was out of nowhere?”
He takes another step towards me. “Maybe I want to do it again,” he says in a gruff tone that I’m not familiar with, but would maybe like to hear again.
I continue to just stare at him, my rage turning to confusion and lust? He’s inches from my face but grabs my shirt and asks firmly, “Do you want me to do it again?”
All I can do is slightly nod my head, which he takes as the green light I meant it to be. He pulls me to him by my shirt but continues just to look at me, our lips almost touching. Finally, he kisses me softly. I run my fingers through his hair as his tongue starts to enter my mouth. His hair and his tongue are so soft. My other hand is running down his back, along the tshirt he was wearing to bed. His kisses get harder and more desperate.
