Page 82 of The Love We Make
“Go back to your date, Maddy,” he sighed. “I will see you in two weeks.”
He no longer sounded high. The lust had faded. He sounded like a fuck in the bar bathroom was just what he needed and now he would move on with his night.
“Yeah, sounds good,” I said as monotone as I could. He didn’t move at first and for a minute, I thought he was onto me. That he knew I was upset. But then he kissed my shoulder with a peck one more time before opening the bathroom door and leaving me alone.
I turned and locked the door behind him, making sure he could not come back in or that no one would come in. I crumbled to the floor, the tears coming faster now. So much confusion lacing through my body.
I wanted more.
But I wanted less.
I wanted him.
But I wanted us.
Chapter 27
Ethan
I walked back to the VIP area, convinced I looked thoroughly fucked but unable to give a shit. I didn’t exactly have a light and a mirror to make sure I was put together. But I had to return to my friends.
I hated leaving Madison alone, but I knew we couldn’t leave the bathroom together. Plus, when I told her I loved her and she stayed silent, it fucking hurt. We always left with telling each other we loved one another. Did sex change that?
I didn’t think it did. I never thought it would change that at all. But she never returned my words.
And it. Fucking. Hurt.
Fuck.
I didn’t completely regret fucking her in the bathroom, though. If dancing with me was going to cause her to get wet, I would be damned if she was going to go off and dance with Tyson fucking Black. No way was he going to benefit from me turning Madison on. I wasn’t working her up and leaving her hanging.
If I was the one that made her hot, I was the one that was going to take care of her. And I did.
And everything was very Madison and Ethan. Even the sex.
But then it wasn't. She shut down. She clammed up.
When she was done, she was done. I guess she finally got the dirty bathroom sex she wanted and that was all there was to it.
On the flip side, I was ready to pitch again. I felt rejuvenated. Not just from seeing and fucking Madison, but from the sudden burst of random rage I had. I wanted to take it out on whoever we were facing next.
I wanted to pitch mad.
The only saving grace I got from the rest of the night at 678 was when I returned to the VIP area. Tyson was chatting with some of the guys and when he looked up and saw me walk by, I was willing to bet my slider that he knew I fucked Madison.
I was done giving a shit, though. Eddie raised an eyebrow at me and I waved him off and that was all there was to that. Everyone else kept quiet.
Including me.
After a few more minutes, I excused myself and made my way to the exit as I ordered an Uber to take me home. When I got outside, I had 6 minutes to wait until my Uber arrived. I thought I would be waiting in peace, but instead, Tyson saddled his way up next to me.
“Are you following me?” I asked like I was fucking 12.
“No, I am taking off.” I looked at him quickly, shocked and oddly pissed he would leave Madison hanging. “Madison texted me that she left already,” he added, “Again,”
Huh?
I just shrugged. I didn’t want to talk to him. And I was not surprised Madison left. She was too good of a person to fuck someone and then have a merry night with someone else.
