I wake with a huge smile on my face. I stretch, remembering everything that happened last night, and blush thinking about me wanting Carter to do more than kiss me. I am glad he was a gentleman and didn’t take advantage of me. I have no idea what time it is, but I’m suddenly energized, and I need to see him. I need to confirm what I remember just to be sure my fucked up brain isn’t playing tricks on me. I toss the covers off me and hop out of bed. I quickly make my way over to the dresser and grab my shorts. I almost trip trying to get them on, but thankfully crisis adverted.

Again, I chastise myself for not being prepared for another sleep over. I desperately want a toothbrush and a hairbrush. I make do again with my fingers, and smooth out my hair with the palms of my hands. I walk over to the bathroom in Carter’s room, and almost jump with joy when I see his toothbrush and toothpaste by the sink. I don’t think he’ll mind if I use his toothbrush. I mean, he kissed me last night, and this is basically the same thing. I think about our kiss again, and smile widely as I quickly brush my teeth. When I’m finished, I clean up after myself and put everything back where it was. I look myself over before going to find him, and smile once more when I see the light shining back in my eyes.

It’s all because of Carter. It’s funny how one simple, but passionate kiss can change things.

I have to stop myself from running out of the bathroom, but I manage to slow down. Before I open the door to find him, I take a deep breath stilling the nerves in my stomach. I haven’t been this thrilled in a long time, and I relish in the rush that takes over me. But when I open the door, I’m not prepared to see him standing across the hall. My eyes graze over him, and seeing his naked chest makes my breath catch in my throat. I recover quickly, and blush when he notices me. He must have slept in the guest room across from his room, but my face falls when I see the look on his face. It’s a mixture of regret and sadness.

I’m confused by his look and I instantly think something’s wrong. He hasn’t moved out of the doorway fully, and before I can ask what’s wrong, I hear her voice. “Carter, come back to bed.”

My stomach falls, and I swallow hard trying to get the lump that’s forming in my throat to go away before I ask, “Please tell me that’s not Bethany in there.”

His jaw clenches and his head drops as the door opens so I can see her. She’s sitting up in the bed wearing Carter’s shirt, and it’s all the confirmation I need. I don’t even say anything before turning around, going back to his room, and quickly grab the rest of my things.
