Chapter Twenty-One

Luke

I tore my heavy eyelids open to find the sun creeping across the room. I had forgotten to close the blinds last night, having rushed Claire out of my apartment and back to hers. I grimaced in the light of the morning sun. As I raised a hand to shield myself, my alarm went off, causing me to grab my phone and delete all the alarms I had set.

I set my phone on the bedside dresser with little to no care whether it stayed in place or fell. I rolled back over, taking the sheets with me. When I focused on the space where Claire had been, I spun around, reluctantly facing the rays of sun dripping through the blinds.

I growled, “I shouldn't have done that.”

It was bad enough that Claire was the first person I truly cared about. But now, I had the weight of her v-card hanging over my head. If I had known she was a virgin, I wouldn't have taken her like that. I would have waited. I would have made sure she was sure she wanted to do it. I mean, everything was consensual, but I felt awful for being her first.

I should have been more mindful. I should have listened better.

I rubbed my temples, trying to groan the rest of my unstable thoughts away. Nothing seemed to help.

She was about to tell me, too. I tried to listen. I wanted her to tell me, but she decided to tell me later. What kind of person does that?

I didn't want to get angry at Claire, but the timing was bothering me. What if she had wanted us to get that heated so she could trap me? I didn't want to be that guy that took off after snatching a v-card. As adventurous as I was, I wasn't a huge jerk. I made sure to communicate and be careful.

It was driving me mad to lay in my bed. I decided to get up, following the drops of sun into the living room. I wandered into the kitchen and started the coffee maker, staring blankly across the room. I don't think I had taken a shower yet. I was still worn out from the night before, from having made love to Claire in my bed and riding that roller coaster of emotions afterward.

Maybe I should call her.

I squeezed my eyes shut, listening to the coffee machine chug away.

No, I should give her space. I need space, too. I need to really think about what I've done.

I didn't take Claire for the type to be deceptive. I had dated enough women to know what that type looked like—and she hardly looked the part. She could have been lying to me, but I couldn't determine why she would have a reason to do that. She seemed perfectly sane and healthy.

I poured myself a heaping cup of coffee and didn't bother adding any of my usual ingredients to it. As I took a sip, I mulled over the events of last night all over again.
