do y'all really want that... threesome or were y'all just playing?

At the mention of Jason's name, I tensed in wonder if he's at the party or not. My body felt comatose, I didn't even realize when Harry pulled me away from the two boys and towards the pool area. He sat on the pool bench and coaxed my form onto his lap, I made myself comfortable and I slowly sipped my drink. Jason cannot be at the party. I began thinking of scenarios in which I come face to face with him after 2 years. I pondered over what I'd say or what I'd do and all I pictured was my hand coming into contact with his cheek, a stinging sensation left on my palm as I would place all my pent up anger into one slap. He shouldn't be here since he graduated and has nothing to do with a meager frat party. I shook my head, trying to clear my clouded mind and put my focus on Harry.

"Hey, what are you thinking about?" Harry asked, his hand rubbed along my thigh as I sat across his lap "Jason. What if he's here? I don't want to see him. Not now, not ever" I spoke and I could feel my legs start to tremble in fear "You won't because he isn't here and even if he is, I'm with you. I mean, what's the worst thing could he do?" I sighed "A lot. You don't know to what lengths he can go" When Jason and I first started dating, he was the absolute gentleman. He listened to my rants, he always wore a smile and he never made me feel left out. When our relationship started to grow, I confided in him that I was still a virgin and somehow that sparked a fuse in him. "Sweetheart, I think you're forgetting what I'm capable of. If you thought Jason was bad, I'm worse. I definitely won't attempt to kill you but I will protect you" Harry said and I gulped

Jason made it his life's mission to sleep with me, to take my virginity because of his acclaimed love for me. Being 18 and lost in the world out of high school made me seek solace in Jason. That was the worst decision of my life. After we had sex the first time, things changed a bit, he became more demanding in sexual matters as in nearly choking me to death because I wouldn't give into his desires - that was the night we broke up or rather he left me for the girl in the next room. I managed to break free from his grasp by clawing at his hands when I felt my breath start to waver, slowing down. I haven't told anyone about that night at all, and whoever I told, just knew that I had quite an active sex life with Jason. I shuddered at the memories that flooded my mind and unconsciously, I felt Harry tighten his hold on me.

"Don't think about it, it's only going to put you on edge. You're here with me, alright. You're safe, Addy" Harry said in assurance I nodded before resting my head on his shoulder but I suddenly remembered when Harry mentioned knowing everything about Jason and I. "Harry, how much did you know about Jason and I?" I asked, lifting my head to look at him as he gulped down his drink "Everything" He answered in a simple tone, swinging the solo cup between his thumb and forefinger, keeping his gaze on it "I knew how you guys started dating, how he slept with you just to brag that he took your virginity and lastly how he almost killed you" I sucked in a breath as Harry stared at me when he said the last part, his facial expression was hard like stone and the anger in his eyes made me shiver.

"How did you find out?" I exhaled "We were in the same football team so like any other locker room, secrets are disclosed more like who fucked which girl and who's going to get to fuck her next. That was another reason why nearly every guy found you interesting" Harry said and my mind began to spin with the newfound information "Me? Why?" I continued "You're the type of girl that didn't throw herself at boys, you kept to yourself and I will admit, I found that intriguing as well but the reputation that I built for myself didn't allow me to just walk up to you and talk to you because then I'd have to report back to the boys in the locker room and I couldn't do that. Hence the sexual frustration I always felt when you were in the same room as me" He confessed and I slumped back against the armrest of the pool chair.

"When did all of this start?" I asked "Around the time you were with Jason. I wasn't as popular, if I may say so, back then than I am now" I sighed, letting every word sink in. "So was I like some prize that needed to be achieved?" I fiddled with my fingers "Fuck no. Jason genuinely liked you but his ego got in the way. How did you manage to get away from him?" Harry rebutted instantly "I struggled, I remember scratching at his hand that was wrapped around my neck and he let go in frustration. I ended up covering the marks with concealer so Carter wouldn't see or anyone else. I need a drink" I got off Harry's lap, leaving him outside and went into the house again. "Is there trouble in paradise?" I heard a voice behind me as I served myself at the bar "What do you want Madeline?" I sighed, turning to face her "Nothing, I just noticed the tension between you and Harry out there so I thought I'd pay my condolences" I rolled my eyes and she continued in her taunting voice "You know, since your relationship or whatever you guys share is about to end"

"Don't you have boys to fuck rather than standing here and criticizing my relationship?" I scoffed and Madeline laughed "Your boyfriend is one of them. You never know when something might happen" She winked before skipping away, her mini skirt lifted giving every on looker the view of her naked ass. I brushed her words aside, not letting them bother me and downed my drink followed by three more. I stood by the bar, I don't even know for how long, as I made my last drink when Rebecca approached me, "Where's Harry?" I gestured to the sliding door "By the pool" She nodded and placed a jello shot in her mouth "Just be careful, Addy. Stay with Harry" She said in a warning tone "What do you mean?" She walked off and I frowned at her retreating back.

Confused, I headed out to the pool to find Harry gone. "Harry?" I called with hope that he may be near but due to the darkness and bad lighting, I couldn't see him. I went back into the house and noticed his mop of curls go upstairs. I pushed my way through the grinding crowd, "Why don't you just fuck right here?" I yelled at a pair who refused to move out of my way. I then managed to step around them, in between them and another couple, and reached the stairs with a breath of relief, I trudged upstairs and stood at the landing, looking at the multiple doors before me - all closed. I opened the first door and found an empty room, the next two were occupied making me want to bleach my eyes - yes, I know I have sex but seeing someone else is disturbing. I turned the handle of the next door and opened it, wishing I didn't.

I promise I'll try to make time to write longer chapters xx
