I finish telling them everything. Well almost everything, I left out a couple things, like how I met him in a Bdsm club. I just told them that I met him in a club he owned. I also didn't tell them that I'm in the Bdsm lifestyle in general. I don't even know if I like it, considering I only dabbled in it for a month. I also left out the other parts...like the punishments and...other things. Along with where I currently am and who I am. Other than that, I told them everything.
"Wow, I never knew parents could be so controlling," Brad says.
"Right?!! But he also had no right to take you there without asking," Cargo says.
"Who cares! Can we talk about the fact that those two are totally in love with one another?! I mean I don't blame her, he is really hot!" Virgo gushes causing me to blush, as I hear Brad protest.
"Really Virgo, that's all you go out of this?" Cargo asks.
"I mean sure he's hot but you're sexy and cute so either way I'd still prefer you," Virgo says to Brad, ignoring Cargo's question. I can't help but laugh.
"Right...hey! Get a room you two!" Cargo exclaims and I laugh harder, knowing for a fact that Virgo and Brad were making out. "Right we'll...I should let you go." He says and I nod.
"Yeah, I'll talk to you later," I say out of habit.
"Talk to you later," he replies and before I can say anything else he hangs up. I put down the phone with a sigh. I hurt him and it shows. There was something growing between us and I just acted as if it meant nothing to me. A little part of me wanted it to keep growing but most of me didn't. Almost as if something is holding me back. A chuckle escapes me, guess I'm just thinking to much into this.
"A shower seems right about now," I say to myself and decide to do just that.
***
Once I'm all refreshed and feeling somewhat good, I decide that I want to end my day with a little reading. Just as I pick up the book, my landline rings.
"Hiver! Hé, cest!" (Winter! Hey) Zach greets me as he turns, due to my approaching footsteps. His eyes light up and a huge smile appears on his face. Guilt fills me up even more, he shouldn't be happy to see me at all. As if on cue Crile walks out of the store, locking the door behind him.
"Au revoir. Merci!" (Bye. Thank you) He says and then goes on his way. I shake my head and chuckle. I may not have known Crile that long but he's a character, that's for sure.
"Zach. Qu'est-ce que tu fais ici?! Mon patron nétait pas content du fait que tu as dit que tu ne partirais pas avant mon arrivée." (Zach. What are you doing here?! My boss wasn't happy about the fact that you said you wouldn't leave until I arrive.) I scold him to which he gives me a sheepish smile.
"Désolé. Je nai pas votre numéro et cest la seule façon de vous contacter. Je sais que nous venons de nous rencontrer, mais ... Tu veux prendre un café?" (I'm sorry. I don't have your number and this is the only way to contact you. I know we just met but...would you like to get some coffee?) He asks blushing.
"Maintenant?" (Now?) I ask and he bashfully nods. On one hand I'm not suppose to be getting close to Zach at all, he's suppose to just be an acquaintance. On the other hand I didn't want my day to end, with me almost having a panic attack. Even though seeing it was Zach waiting for me instead of Marquis made me calm down, I was still partially freaking out. The reason was a part of me was hoping it was in fact Marquis who would be standing there, but how can I think that when I'm basically running away from him? To be honest, I don't want to end the day being stuck alone with all these thoughts. Winding down with company and coffee sounds like the perfect way to end the day. Plus how close can you get to someone sharing a cup of coffee?
"Sûr" (Sure) I answer.
