Cursed

࿏ Chapter Thirteen ࿏

Hayden

I'm trying to be patient while my phone takes forever to download the picture that Rory sent to me. I'm so goddamn hard that every time my blanket brushes up against my cock I shudder. But I refuse to touch myself. I have to wait. I need to see her.

The image finally loads on my screen and it was well worth the wait. I thought one Rory was sexy enough but two of them, kissing each other, was a sure way to send me over the edge. How am I supposed to not come at the sight of those plump lips kissing the perfect mirror image of themselves. Her eyes are barely open, just enough to take in her reflection. I can see how turned on she is by herself. I don't think I've ever seen anything sexier than this. Fuck.

My eyes travel down to the curve of her lower back, it dimples where her ass meets her hips. The underwear she has on must be a pair from before she hit puberty because the fabric is straining to fit over her voluptuous curves. It's scrunched up in between the cheeks where I'm envisioning burying my face into. Holy shit I haven't even touched myself and I'm about to come. I grab the head of dick under my blanket. One. Two. Three strokes and I'm exploding up onto my stomach. The release has my head spinning and it takes me a few minutes before I can recover enough to text her back.

I'm stunned by your beauty Ro. I just orgasmed at the site of you.

(no subject)

I've never sent anyone a picture like this. A boy said he would give me fifty-dollars for a picture of my tits once but I refused.

(no subject)

You don't have to hide your body from me Ro. And that boy was an idiot, your worth much more than fifty-dollars.

(no subject)

There's something about you...You make me feel different.

(no subject)

Can I tell you something?

(no subject)

Hayden, I promise you can tell me anything.

(no subject)

I think I'm falling in love with you.

Silence. My phone stops making that buzzing sound that signals an incoming text. Panic starts to set in. Was it too soon to share my feelings? Am I scaring her away? But I couldn't deny it any longer. Being around Rory makes me forget about all of the inner demons that haunt my mind. She brings a light into my life that I simply can't let go of. Now that Zach is out of the picture there's no one in the way of me having her. But that doesn't mean that she feels the same way. I practically jump off the bed when my phone vibrates again.

(no subject)

Hayden...Can we talk about this in person?

(no subject)

Name the time and place and I'll be there Ro.

(no subject)

Hideaway in twenty minutes.

I get up and start looking for my clothes. I go to the mirror in my bathroom and examine the dark circles that have deepened under my eyes. There's no denying that the drugs are starting to take their toll on my body, but my mind remains focused on one thing. Rory. I haven't even thought about getting out the box under the bathroom sink at all today. It's not like I'm addicted to heroin, I just enjoy getting high from time to time. The town square clock rings out loudly reminding me that I only have a few minutes before I need to be at the bar to meet her.

Her car is already there by the time I arrive at the parking lot. Instead of going inside I walk up to the chainmail fence where I spot her sitting outside at our usual table. I sneak up behind her so she doesn't see me coming.

"I hope you know what you did to me with that picture you sent earlier."

"Oh Hayden, you scared me!"

"Can I buy you a drink, Ro?"

"Yes, get in here!"

She says giggling. Which I'm taking as a good sign that my confession hasn't freaked her out completely. Even though I want nothing more than to be right next to her, I enjoy teasing her through the fence. She starts to get frustrated that I'm not coming in.

"Well if you're not coming in then I'll have to make you want to."

Rory gets up and approaches the other side of the fence from where I'm standing. She twirls for me in a yellow sundress with white polka dots. It's lightweight fabric flies up around her thighs, exposing the very bottom of her panties. She sees my eyes get wide and covers up, realizing that she may have shown more of herself than she wanted to.

"Oops!"

She blushes, pushing the pleats of her dress down. Rory's ass on display in public is just about enough to get me hard again. I look at the fence and determine whether or not it can hold my weight. Deciding it's fine I take a few steps back and then agiley jump over, landing on the other side. Everyone on the patio applauds my show of love but all I care about is Rory. Without a word I pull her into me. Or lips meet and I feel her release a sigh into my mouth. I deepen the kiss so that all five of my senses are filled with her. After a I pull away she still looks stunned by my entrance.

"I'll grab you a drink before you collapse Ro."

She agrees and I head inside to get my usual drink from Gina. Gina laughs and slides me a gin and tonic with lime.

"That was quite the entrance Hayden. Maybe next time you could use the front door so my fence doesn't break?"

"I'll consider it. It will be two of those Gina. Put it on my tab."

I try to act normal but I'm just now realizing that I forgot to bring my wallet. It doesn't matter, I already know it will be empty since I've been spending most of my money on heroin. Good thing Gina doesn't know that or she would never let me open a tab. I grab the drinks and go back out to Rory.

She sips her gin and smiles while I tell her all about this time that I train-hopped to Chicago before getting caught by the police at Union station. She watches me with rapid attention as I share about crazy adventures that I've had, and more intimate things about my life that I've never told anyone before.

"Hayden."

"Yes, Ro, what is it?"

"Are you really falling in love with me?"

"What if I am?"

She doesn't answer me right away. I know that she may not feel the same way about me but there's only one way to find out.

"Listen Rory, you don't have to give me any answers tonight. Just know that my feelings for you are real and they're never going to change."

"All I can say is this. Some of the things I do when I'm with you scare me. I don't know if I'm really me anymore. When I'm with you I feel confident and sexy. Those are two words I would've never used to describe myself before."

"Rory, it's ok to break routine every once and a while. It makes you human! And it's normal to fear change when you aren't used to it. Many people fear me and you want to know why?"

She looks up at me innocently and nods her head. I put my hands on the table and lean my body as far backwards as I can. My head tips back as I let out a howl.

"It's because I don't give a fuck babe. I'm free!"

"Hayden! You better stop it, people are going to think we're insane!"

"Well then I guess we should go back to my place and howl in private."
