broken heart

He was watching her conversation, and it was clear as day what the topic was, if the disapproving glances her friend kept shooting his way were any clue. Dex’s eyes narrowed. What the fuck was that prissy bitch doing at this party anyways? Knowing her, she’d probably shown up just to play cockblock. He smirked at the thought. She was gonna lose. Gaze drifting back to his girl, he barked out a sharp and concise, “Babe!” and when she turned to meet his gaze, he raised an expectant brow, lifting a hand to curl two fingers in an unmistakable gesture: Come here.

celine knew how her friends felt about dex. they made that very clear to her every time they would talk to her. but she spent most of that time defending him, saying that he loved her, those same rehearsed lines that none of them believed anymore. she was stuck in the same conversation once again until she heard dex's strong voice break through the crowd. the party dulled for a moment as her face heated up in a blush. "sorry." she muttered to her friend before she turned away from her, her face still hot as she crossed the room to sit in his lap. "hi dex." she murmurs with a smile as she settled in a little more. "are you having a nice time?"

"Where are we headed?"

lázaro's handsome features was one of the first things she noticed as he stepped out to open the door for her. a smile spreading across her lips as she slipped into the car. "what a gentleman." she teased slightly as she buckled herself in. "i live on state street. so it's a couple blocks away." she turned to smile at him, taking a second to really look over his features. "thank you. i hate walking home from work. there are so many creeps. i just hate it." she muttered as she relaxed back against the seat. thinking about the times a customer had pursued her after she had gotten off shift. the times she had a grip on the pepper spray that usually stayed tucked in her purse. the times she had to slip into a grocery store so they didn't know her apartment. "thank you." she added, her smile had faltered for a moment as she thought about it. but she quickly shook it off. "my name is rosalie by the way... i thought maybe you should actually know my name since i am in your car."

jack looked at the nervous girl and he smiled, he liked how it made him feel. he had the upper hand and he was powerful. just like things should be. but it didn't mean he was a monster. jack was nice as long as no one questioned him. "that's okay birdie." he cooed as he stepped closer to the young blonde woman. he brushed her hair behind her ear "you're so beautiful and this will make you feel so good. this is my way to spread all the good feelings i get from everyone. for what they give to me and what we give to each other. do you understand?" he asked her. "it might be a little painful for you. but it's like i always say. we can't know what good is if we can't know pain."

his reassurance only made her pout. she couldn't help but still feel nervous. "i just... i want you to have a nice night. i want you to feel good." her thoughts drifted to the other girls who were more experience, and in her mind better for him. "i understand sir... or... what should i call you?" her head cocked as she looked up at him a little more, her question genuine. "i trust you."

"You look too good and you think we're gunna make it to the club?" Sid raised a brow as he watched her. She'd always have this affect on him. He's grinning as he gets up and crowds into her space. "You know just how to make everyone look your way, don't you?" Sid loves that about her. He can be a bit of a show off and liked that she wasn't shy either. His hands find her hips before he's dropping his mouth to her temple, "My baby." @dimplcdcheeks

a short giggle escaped sofia's lips as he pressed himself into her space. "hm... so i am going to take this as you liking the dress." being with sid boosted her confidence more than anyone ever had before. she turned in his strong arms. "i think there might be time for a quickie?" she teased, her eyebrows raising as she looked at his handsome face. "i do love the attention... but i bet you love it that i'm the one on your arm at the end of the night too... all those men can stare but you're the only one who can touch."

the corners of his mouth curled at the suggestion, pure smugness flaring, and he let her feel it—hands strong on her hips, sliding her forward until their torsos met. "well, i'm not going to say no, am i?" he whispered, his voice a hush meant only for her, then ghosted his lips along her jaw. xavier never saw the point in pretending he didn't enjoy the taste of her, never remotely shy about his own cravings. he reversed their positioning with a single motion, the momentum of her request making her even lighter than usual, and dropped to his knees in front of her. "then let's not waste time," he said, toppling her gently, then looked up at her from between her knees. "you just watch me."

a surprised gasp escaped her lips when he easily flipped them over. his strength being one of the things that drove her crazy. she bit down on her bottom lip softly, trying to hold back the moan that wanted to escape. he had such a strong effect on her. "okay..." she whispered softly, settling back against the couch for him. her eyes staying locked on his face. her hand reaching down and touching his jawline softly. "you're so handsome." she murmured.

harlow's stomach dropped. the teasing tone didn't matter—his brain latched onto the words don't even like me that much and proceeded to spiral. "no—wait, that's not—" his arms tightened instinctively when she started to wiggle away, a small, panicked sound catching in his throat before he could stop it. he followed her movement, tugging her back against him, clumsy but determined. "win, come on. you know that's not true." his phone buzzed again, but he didn't care to turn to check who it was. "i do like you," he muttered, words muffled against her. "a lot, actually. it's… a problem," he added, a little louder. "just... stop squirming. i'm having an existential crisis," he mumbled as his mouth found the edge of her jaw. just a brush of lips, a hopeful bribe. or a stalling tactic.

when his grip immediately tightened on her she couldn't help but giggle. her fighting stopped right away as she curled back into him. he was stronger than her so the over powering was easy. "baby..." she purred as her fingers moved to his hair, tangling in his loose waves. "i know you like me okay? shhh." trying to sooth him from his panic, a little bit of guilt washing over her. "i'm here." she turned her head so that she could press a soft kiss against his lips. "you have me so fucked up too." her eyes fluttering softly as she bumped her nose against his.

even though the town adam grew up in had always felt very small to him, he had loved growing up there. and coming back was no different. walking the familiar streets, going into the same shops, getting his usual order from the local diner, some things had changed but mostly it was the same. he was in a good mood, the sun was shining and it felt like nothing could ruin this day. and that's when he spotted her. his ex girlfriend, standing outside a flower shop. they hadn't kept in contact and adam avoided social media like the plague. she looked older, but in a good way. if it was possible she looked more beautiful. they had ended on amicable terms, deciding it was best not to long distance because it would probably mean them breaking up in the end and hating the other. they always said, if it was meant to be it would happen. adam got over it after a few years ago, but seeing her now, here. it did make him smile. so he walked over to her and tapped her on the shoulder. "hey." he said with a big stupid smile on his face. "i can't believe you're here." he said with a laugh of disbelief.

karina always felt a little strange returning home. she had occasionally visited but it just felt different each time, as if something was missing. this time was no different. but she moved about town like she hadn't missed a beat, running some errands for her mom and doing a few of her own. when adam approached her though it was like everything that she had been thinking of doing disappeared from her mind. "oh my god. adam!" she exclaimed before she wrapped her arms around his torso. it was such a natural reaction, really before she could even think about it. "how have you been?" she thought back to their breakup. even though they had both agreed that breaking up would be the best for them it still hurt. she shut herself off from him. but now, seeing him again that familiar heart racing excitement appeared again.

his brows only rose higher. for all the weeks they'd been playing their little game, she rarely put an ask like that on the table. not in words, anyway. the suggestion was rarely so direct, buried in submission or that sweet accidental boldness he found so intoxicating. a direct request? it gave him ideas. he smiled, genuine, and he slid his hands up from her thighs to the rest at her hips, keeping her close. "look at you," he said, feigning mild shock for her benefit, "my little overachiever." it put a charge through him; the neat, nice girls never asked for what they wanted. he wet his lips, the taste of her still lingering, amused at how quickly she could surprise him, and he wanted her to do it again. "you want it here?" he asked, his voice lower. "right now?" he pressed, not letting her lose eye contact.

she shifted in his lap as she waited for his response. her face hot with a blush. "i mean... you... you don't have to." she quickly replied. but she took a moment to take a deep breath, wanting to feel more bold. "but i really like it when you do it." her nose brushing against his. she was never the most confident girl. especially when it came to things like this. "yes... i want it here and now." she murmured before she kissed him once more.

harlow's resolve crumbled the second her lips met his again. his hands hovered at her waist like they didn't know where they were allowed to land. he was always like that. hovering. negotiating with air, before cautious hands found the fabric of her shirt at her waist, fingers curling there like he could anchor himself to this moment if he just held on tight enough. but his phone buzzed against the nightstand for the third time in five minutes, and reality pressed right back in. "win," he murmured against her mouth, though he didn't pull away. his forehead rested against hers, eyes still closed. "you're cheating," he whispered, feeling her heartbeat through the shirt. or maybe it was his. probably his. beating way too fast. "you can't just weaponize being cute like this. that's not fair."

she could feel him crumbling underneath her, knowing that just a little more pushing might convince him to stay. "you said one more kiss." a sigh then escaped her lips as she began to pull away. "might as well go... you don't want to stay and be with me anyway." her tone teasingly dramatic. she began to wiggle out of his grip even though all she wanted was to stay wrapped up in him. "guess you don't even like me that much." her tone had more of a whine to it now, wondering how far she could pull away before he pulled her back in.

xavier set the controller down beside him, trying not to let his competitive instincts take over. he'd let her win, obviously. or maybe he'd been distracted. that made more sense, in his opinion. he set his hands on her thighs by habit, head tilted back to get a proper look at her face. "is that your ask? a plain, garden-variety kiss?" he asked, arching a brow, "you're setting the bar low for a champion."

"no... i don't want just a kiss." her forehead rested against his as she bumped their noses together. even though they had been hooking up for a little bit now asking for anything made her blush. "i... i want you to eat me out." she murmured softly before pressing a soft kiss against his lips, deepening it after a moment before pulling away. "your... your mouth always feels so good." she bit down on her bottom lip nervously as she waited for his response.
