I go to the bathroom and masturbate to the dream I just had. I shower and dress up. It's about 5 am and I cannot sleep, so I opt to take a ride to clear my head. Camille is soundly asleep as I exit my bedroom. The living-room is quiet. Sasha and Vincent are asleep on the couch. Martin must have gone home.
I love how peaceful it is at this time of morning. It's like the world is asleep, together with most of my worries. I get into the garage and push my black Ducati Monster out onto the driveway and turn on the engine. The bike roars to life and I ride into the dark. There is something tranquil yet sinister about the dark. I can't tell what makes me feel so at ease and un-nerves me in the same breath. Trees speed by me. Its quiet under my helmet but my thoughts are louder than ever. I can't seem to figure out why I'm so taken by her, why I'm aching to get to know her this much. I haven't let anyone in in a long time and the thought of her in my life scares the shit out of me.
She's most likely straight and that in itself should be enough to make me keep away, because nothing fucks up a lesbian as badly as falling for a straight girl. I need to find distractions before I get hurt again.
I've been riding for one and a half hours now, and I need some company. Mostly I need something other than my fingers and the shower head to relieve the throbbing in between my thighs. I need something, someone familiar to feel the ground beneath my feet, because right now, It's slipping. I pull over by the road and call Heather.
"Hey baby. I need you right now. I think I'm about to make either the biggest mistake of my life, or the best decision. Are you home?"
"Hey sexy. No I'm not. Just getting off work, but I'll be home in about 20 minutes. What's wrong? You sound a bit off " She tells me, sounding rather excited.
"I'll tell you in person. I'll be there in about 40 minutes." I tell her. Thank God she's gonna be there by the time I get to her place.
"No worries babe. I'm here for you" She says. And with that, I ride for her house.
Heather and I have been friends for a really long time and she knows parts of me that I can't seem to share with anyone else. We've been friends with benefits for nearly six years and weirdly enough, it works for us. She knows my rawest, my most intimate thoughts. Things I couldn't possibly share with Sasha. It's not that Sasha is a judgemental person, I just don't think she'd understand my choices. And truth be told, it takes a certain kind of person to see you like that and not switch up on you
The ride to Heather's apartment was quiet. A sense of calm had come over me. She had that way of putting me at ease. I felt so free around her. She allowed me to be myself, whatever shape or form that came in. It's like nothing ever phased her, but she wasn't cold like I was. On the contrary, she was quite warm, though guarded.
