DEVON

Part of me dreaded the following morning, despite it being my idea. I could barely sleep, hoping that if I never slept, that morning would never come, but it did.

I want to scream that it was a mistake, but despite me desperately trying not to, I can't help but feel that it wasn't.

Jake groaned and stretched slightly. Oh god, he's awake.

Devon : morning.

I practically whispered.

Jake : you're awake?

He sounded sort of panicked.

Devon : mhm.

Jake : I feel like we should talk about... what's gonna happen.

Devon : I still want it to.

Jake : Okay. What are the like... conditions of this?

Devon : Obviously I still feel a lot for you, and I don't want this to end, but I don't know what's best for the both of us.

Jake : So, can we like... talk to other people? Like... do things with them?

Is he not satisfied with me? Is he curious about other people?

Devon : Yeah, nothing... too far, like sex, but yeah.

Jake : Okay. What if someone asks if we're together?

Devon : I'm not sure.

Jake : Okay. Will it just be like we're friends or will we just not like... interact?

Devon : I'm not avoiding you. I just need to have a couple days to myself to figure out what I want.

Jake : And if you still don't know?

Devon : I expect you to use it as an opportunity to do the same.

Jake : Well... if we're just friends... we should probably get out of this bed.

Devon : Hold on, I just want a few more minutes.

I wrapped my arms around him.

I don't know why I'm prolonging this. This is what I want. I'm doing this.

Jake : As your friend, I'd like to say... you have really comfortable arms.

I chuckled softly.

Jake : Don't think I didn't notice the missing condom.

I went pure red.

Devon : I didn't intend to fuck you last night.

Jake : Are you planning on using it on someone else?

Devon : Why friend? You jealous?

Jake : Why would I be jealous that my friend wants to sleep with other people.
