The Vixen (College Life #2)

The intervention I didn't know I needed

Vatica's P.O.V-

I shut the sliding door, walking up to Adrian on the back porch. The string lights that have been hanging back here for years cast a light around us. The sky is black, no stars are seen for miles, and only half the moon shows. I turn to see Danny and Dia on the couch, she's talking to him, and he looks uncomfortable.

My sister has a habit of making people feel uneasy.

"So..." I say, letting my voice trail off.

Adrian's back is to me, his muscles are stiff under his white cotton shirt. His head lulls to the side, and I can hear him breathing hard. He's mad.

"How long has it been going on?"

"What?"

He turns around so fast, I thought his neck may break, "Don't play dumb with me, how long have you been fucking him."

I stagger back like he shot me in the chest, "We haven't had sex."

"Well, you did something with him, your dress was practically hanging off your body." Every word that spilled from his mouth was laced with anger and frustration. "Tell the truth, Vatica, I at least deserve that."

I looked to the tree behind him, then back at his face, "We kissed and touched, that was it. Danny's not like that, he wouldn't want to do that so early."

He claps his hands together, "Isn't that sweet." I noted the sarcasm in his voice.

"I don't even know why you care; we aren't together and never were, I don't owe you an explanation."

"Yet, I owed you an explanation when Jessica sucked my cock! You are a fucking hypocrite." I see Danny from the corner of my eye stand up, wanting to come out here and defend me. I appreciate his tenacity, but if a fight broke out Adrian would beat his ass. I hold my hand up, he wants to keep moving, but stops and sits back down on the couch.

"Fine, whatever, I am a hypocrite. But guess what, you didn't have a regular girl sucking your cock, it was the girl that I lived with! The girl that hated my guts and has made my life a living hell since joining Sigma Theta Psi!" I'm seething.

"Well, I had to get off somehow and you weren't going to do it for me!"

"Oh, so you're saying if I sucked your cock like a good little whore, you wouldn't have cheated on me?"

"I didn't cheat on you! You said we weren't together."

"WELL, IT FELT LIKE WE WERE!" I screamed so loud I thought I would lose my voice. "I wanted you to be my boyfriend, I wanted the long walks and dirty, filthy sex but you never treated-", I stopped talking.

"No, don't stop now, you were on a roll. Keep going Vatica, I encourage it."

I suck in a breath, "You never treated me well, ever. It's like, we would go to parties, and you looked at other girls, and not just a look, it was a "let me fuck you" look. When I was around you, I didn't like the way I felt, easy and cheap. Then, when that whole thing happened with Jessica La Roche, it sent me spiraling. I wanted to be your girlfriend Adrian, I wanted to do more with you, I just didn't trust you enough after that." My voice turned small toward the end.

He was staring at my face, but I could tell he was somewhere else in the ether. "But you gave me a second chance."

"And I shouldn't have because I had feelings for someone else, I was wrong and I'm sorry. I shouldn't have led you on."

It seems like the fight has left him, his skin turns back to its regular tan color and his shoulders aren't tense. He sits on the edge of the porch, his long legs touching the ground while mines dangle when I sit down next to him.
