“Why are you so hung up about
it? I know you have a little battery friend.”

“Yeah, so? Just because I’m a
virgin, I’m supposed to not know about my own body?” Hazel had also surprised
me a time or two when I thought I was alone. “I have a sex drive, Haze. Being a
virgin doesn’t stop me from having sexual feelings.”

In fact, I probably had more
than the average girl, just because they were so… pent up.

“We just need to take those
sexual feelings and transfer them to something with a penis. A real life penis.
With a boy attached to it.”

I shook my head and went to
take a shower.

Sneak

WICKED
THING
by Angeline Kace

“What gives you the right? We are
not
together. Stop sticking
your nose where it doesn’t belong.”

 

Carmyn’s forehead creases, and if I were a fool, I’d say it was in
pain.

 

Her face flushes with anger. “You’re right, Dallas.” Her words are
clipped and cold. A stark contrast to the heat radiating from her.  “We’re not
together and I had no right. I’m sorry.” She snatches her purse off my dresser
and turns to leave.

 

“Carmyn, wait.”

 

She stops but doesn’t turn around.

 

I’m confused. She won’t let me tell her how I feel, but I’m supposed to
allow her to fix the most broken part of my life? A part of me wants her to.
For her to be the one who makes the broken things work. But not like this. Not
when she insists on keeping things the way they are. I can’t give myself to her
if she won’t accept my heart, let alone give me hers.

 

She marches to the door and flings it open.

 

I want to tell her to wait, but I still don’t know what to say. I got
what I wanted; she won’t try to push me about Denton anymore. Was it worth
losing whatever part of her I had?

 

I’m not sure it is.
