Good Girl

“…So we were thinking of the eighteenth?” Katie says but I not really paying attention. I’m day dreaming, half staring out the window, imagining Dominic is walking down the road and I can ogle at him.

Except he doesn’t really come to this part of the city.

He doesn’t hang out in a student café. And he certainly wouldn’t act like my boyfriend is we did bump into each other.

Not that I’d expect him to. But still, I prefer not to see him in public because it’s easier for both of us. Less risky too.

God, how am I going to go back to playing the stepdaughter when mum comes back? I won’t be able to walk around the house in just a thong. I won’t be able to feel Dominic’s arms as he grabs me at any given moment. I won’t be able to scream in full ecstasy as he makes me cum again and again and…

“Earth to fucking Eden.”

“Huh, what?” I say blinking.

“Where the hell have you been just now?” She asks.

I grin. “Nowhere.”

“Oh Jesus.” She mutters.

“What?” I ask.

“You’re fucking someone. And it’s good isn’t it?”

“What?”

“I can see it.” She says. “The way you’re holding yourself, the way you’re practically glowing. Who is it?”

“You wouldn’t believe me if I told you.” I say back.

“So you are fucking someone.” She says so loudly a few people look.

“Maybe.” I say crossing my arms, sitting back in my chair and wincing at the slight pain from where Dominic spanked me this morning. He fucking spanked me. Damn do I want him to that again.

“Good.” She says. “You deserve a bit of fun after that arsehole Aron.”

“I thought you liked him?” I say. Hell she was the one pushing me in his direction in the first place.

“Yeah that was before…”

“Before what? Him treating me like shit? Him pushing me for sex all the time?”

“You do know why that was don’t you?” She says.

“Why what was?” I ask.

“Him going on about having sex with you so much.”

“Why?”

“Oh Eden.” She says. “There was a bet.”

“Excuse me?”

“Some of the guys were in on it but it was Aron’s idea. They all reckoned you were still a virgin because no one has actually fucked you.”

“The fuck?” I hiss.

“Yeah, so Aron made a bet that he could take your v-plates.”

“You’re not serious?” I snarl. “How long have you known about this?”

“Max told me the other day. He said he was pleased you’d dumped his arse and shown everyone what a piece of shit he is.”

“How many others know?”

“Half of campus probably. Apparently Aron was very vocal about it at the end. Thought everyone would think he was some sort of stud.”

“I’m going to kill him.” I snarl.

“Why?” She says. “God Eden, tell me it’s not him you’re fucking.”

“It’s not. I wouldn’t go near him with a barge pole.”

“Then what does it matter? You’re happy and he’s walking around looking like the arsehole that he is because everyone knows you two didn’t fuck and now half the girls won’t even talk to him.”

“Great. A real bit of feminine solidarity.” I snap.

“I’m sorry Eden.”

“It’s okay. I just…” I shake my head. “I’m gonna head home, I’ve got to get going on my dissertation and I think I need a bit of space.”

“Oh okay. Well let me know about this camping trip, that is if you’re still up for it?”

“Maybe. Is Aron still going?” I ask.

“He’s been uninvited.”

I snort. “Let me think on it.”

“We could do a girls weekend instead. Go to a spa?”

“Yeah that’d be good.” I say. “I don’t have much free time at the moment though. Mum’s away and Dominic’s got me on a curfew.” It’s a neat lie to ensure I maximise the time I’ve got with him.

“Urgh. Doesn’t he know you’re an adult? You can do what you want.”

I smirk. Oh he is more than aware of that. And the thing I want to do most is him.

“Dads huh?” I joke and she agrees. Only she’s not fucking hers.
