I accidentally slept with my bully and now he wants more I woke up slowly warmth pressing against my side and a heavy arm draped over my waist my body didn't want to move the heat the Comfort the way everything felt so right it made me want to stay exactly where I was for a blissful second I almost forgot where I was almost then then my brain caught up and everything slammed into Focus I'm naked oh God I'm naked and there's someone in bed with me I peeled my eyes open and immediately regretted it the room
spun for a moment my head pounding in protest too much alcohol way too much alcohol I took a deep breath trying to keep the nausea at Bay and then risk a glance at the person beside me a guy a really really attractive guy blonde hair long lashes strong jawline the kind of face you'd expect to see on a magazine cover not in your bed after a drunken night out his arm tightened slightly around me and his sleep like he didn't want me to leave Panic flared in my chest I need to get out of here
now carefully I slipped out from under his arm grabbing the nearest piece of clothing I could find my heart was racing a mix of embarrassment confusion and something else I didn't want to name what the hell had I done as I searched for the rest of my clothes fragments of the previous night started coming back the party the drinks the guy this guy God I slept with a stranger sneaking off so soon a voice drooled behind me I froze one shoe halfway on my heart pounding Like A Drum Slowly I turned around to find the
guy sitting up hair tussled and eyes half lided he looked way too comfortable for someone who' just woken up uh yeah just heading out I muttered trying to sound casual and failing miserably he grinned an annoyingly perfect lazy grin and patted the spot on the bed beside him sit for a minute I'll grabb us some coffee before I could protest he got up and wandered over to a small coffee maker on the dresser I stood there awkwardly debating whether to bolt or stay my feet decided for me refusing to move moments later he handed me
a cup the smell of fresh coffee filling the air you haven't changed much he said taking a sip of his own cup I blinked confused what Charlie right he said like it was the most obvious thing in the world we went to high school together I stared at him completely thrown no way I think I'd remember someone like you his grin widened and he leaned against the dresser looking far too amused yeah I looked a little different back then bigger bad hair braces ring a bell it hit me like a freight train Jack I choked
out Bingo my stomach Twisted into a knot Jack my biggest school bully and I just slept with him God this couldn't be happening the next few days I did my best to pretend that Night Never Happened IO voided the coffee shop near my dorm skipped the usual lunchtime spots and even started wearing earbuds everywhere to make myself look unapproachable the last thing I needed was to run into Jack again just thinking about it made my skin cruel but of course the universe had other plans Charlie hey I tensed at the sound of his voice instantly
recognizing that stupidly cheerful tone I glanced over my shoulder already regretting it there he was jogging up to me with that annoyingly perfect grin plasted on his face what do you want Jack I asked crossing my arms relax just saying hi he said completely unfazed by my obvious irritation you heading to class I stared at him for a second debating whether to lie yeah cool mind if I walk with you without waiting for an answer he fell into step beside me I groaned internally this was exactly what I didn't want him acting like we were
suddenly friends but as much as I hated it I couldn't help but notice how different he seemed now gone was the mean sneering bully I remembered this Jack was friendly too friendly you don't have to do this you know I muttered glaring at the ground do what whatever this is acting like we're cool he chuckled and it did something weird to my chest maybe I just want to get to know you the real you I didn't know what to say to that so I stayed quiet hoping he'd get bored and leave he didn't by the
next week it was becoming clear that Jack wasn't going anywhere everywhere I went he seemed to magically appear at the library in the cafeteria even outside my dorm it was like he had a sixth sense for tracking me down we should hang out sometime Jack said casually leaning against the wall next to my locker why I asked genuinely baffled you spent years making my life miserable why would I want to hang out with you Jack's expression softened and for a moment he looked almost regretful look I was a jerk back then I know that but
people change I've changed I narrowed my eyes at him so what you think you can just apologize and we'll be best friends I don't expect you to forgive me overnight he said shrugging but I'd like a chance to prove I'm not that guy anymore I didn't know what to say part of me wanted to tell him to get lost but another part of me the part that was annoyingly curious wondered if he was being serious could he really have changed before I could respond Jack flashed me that infuriating grin again think about it okay and
just like that he walked off leaving me standing there with way too many thoughts swirling in my head a week later I was still trying to wrap my head around everything Jack kept showing up and no matter how much I tried to push him away he didn't seem to get the message the weird thing was I wasn't as annoyed as I thought I'd be if anything I was more confused than ever you doing anything Friday night Jack asked sliding into the seat AC cross from me at the cafeteria seriously I groaned do you ever give
up nope he said with a wink so Friday I rolled my eyes why are you even trying so hard you hated me in school Jack leaned forward resting his elbows on the table I didn't hate you Charlie I was an insecure idiot who didn't know how to deal with his own feelings doesn't excuse what I did but I'm trying to make up for it now my heart did a weird flip at his words and I hated it this was Jack Jack the guy who used to trip me in the hallways and call me names but
now he was sitting here looking at me like I actually mattered and the worst part I didn't hate it I'll think about it I mumbled grabbing my tray and standing up that's all I ask he said with a smile as I walked away I couldn't help but wonder if maybe just maybe Jack really had changed and if he had what did that mean for me for us Friday night rolled around faster than I expected I still wasn't entirely sure why I agreed to this but there I was standing outside the movie theater waiting for Jack
he showed up a minute later hands shoved in his pockets a grin plasted on his face you actually came he said like he was genuinely surprised don't make me regret it I muttered earning a chuckle from him we bought our tickets and headed inside jack insisted on getting popcorn and somehow I ended up carrying it while he carried the drinks we found our seats somewhere in the middle and for a while things were normal comfortable even Jack didn't try anything weird he just watched the previews occasionally throwing a comment my way that made me laugh
despite myself halfway through the movie hands accidentally brushed in the popcorn bucket I pulled mine back quickly but Jack didn't seem faed instead he leaned closer and whispered relax it's just popcorn I rolled my eyes but couldn't help the small smile tugging at my lips for once it felt like maybe we weren't two people with a messy past maybe we were just two guys hanging out when the movie ended Jack turned to me eyes bright want to grab something to eat and for the first time in forever I didn't hesitate yeah sure over the next
couple of weeks Jack and I started hanging out more it wasn't planned exactly it just sort of happened we'd grab coffee between classes sit together in the library or walk back to the dawns after lectures if felt weirdly easy the tension that had been there in the beginning started fading replaced by something lighter one afternoon we ended up at the park near campus Jack was sitting on the grass leaning back on his hands while I sat beside him trying not to feel too self-conscious see I'm not so bad when you give me a chance he
said grinning I rolled my eyes but couldn't help smiling back you're tolerable I guess we stayed there for a while talking about nothing in particular it was nice comfortable and for once I didn't feel like I was waiting for the other shoe to drop but every now and then a nagging voice in my head would remind me of who Jack used to be could I really trust him was this all some elaborate joke I tried to push those thoughts away but they lingered making it hard to fully enjoy what was happening it happened on a
quiet evening we were sitting on the steps outside my dorm the campus unusually peaceful the sky was painted in shades of deep orange and pink as the sun dipped below the Horizon Jack had been unusually quiet which wasn't like him at all everything okay I asked nudging him lightly he looked at me his green eyes reflecting the soft glow of the Setting Sun for a moment he didn't say anything just stared like he was trying to memorize my face I uh need to tell you something he said his voice low but steady I blinked caught
off guard by the sudden seriousness in his tone okay what is it Jack took a deep breath as if G Gathering courage I like you Charlie more than I've ever liked anyone and I know I don't deserve it not after everything I put you through but I've changed I'm not that guy anymore and I want a chance a real chance to show you how much you mean to me my heart pounded in my chest each word sinking deeper than I expected the air felt heavier charged with something I couldn't name he wasn't just saying it
he meant it and that scared me I I Don't Know Jack I whispered my voice barely audible this is a lot I know he said softly leaning just a little closer I I don't expect you to say anything now just think about it please I nodded unsure of what else to do he gave me a small hopeful smile and somehow that made it harder because deep down I knew part of me wanted to believe him the next day I met up with my friends at our usual spot in the cafeteria they noticed right away that
something was off okay spill Mia said eyeing me suspiciously what's going on I side knowing they wouldn't let It Go Jack he said he likes me wants to be with me their reactions were immediate Mia's eyes widened and Ben looked like he wanted to throw his sandwich across the room Charlie you can't be serious Ben said that guy made your life hell in school you really think he's changed I I don't know I admitted feeling more confused than ever he seems different now he's been nice nice doesn't erase years of bullying Mia said gently we
just don't want you to get hurt again I appreciated their concern but it only made things more complicated I didn't want to ignore Jack's feelings but I I couldn't ignore my friend's warnings either meanwhile Jack didn't give up he didn't push but he didn't back off either instead he kept showing up bringing me coffee helping me with assignments even offering to walk me home when it got late he was trying hard why are you doing this I asked one evening as we walked back from the library because because you matter to me he said simply
I know I messed up before but I want to make it right I want to show you that I'm serious his words made something in my chest ache I wanted to believe him but the fear of getting hurt again was still there lurking in the back of my mind I'm still thinking I said giving him a cautious glance Jack smiled not the cocky grin he usually War but something softer that's all I need and in that moment I realized that maybe just maybe he really had changed and maybe I was ready to give him a
chance after days of thinking I finally made up my mind I was going to give Jack a chance it scared me but there was something about him now that felt different maybe he really had changed so with my heart racing I headed out to find him as I walked across campus I spotted him near one of the benches talking to another guy at first it seemed like a normal conversation but then Jack stepped closer and the other guy looked uncomfortable Jack said something I couldn't hear and the guy shook his head backing away quickly my
stomach Twisted I couldn't believe believe it after all his promises he was still the same I turned around and left before either of them could see me the hurt hit me harder than I expected I'd almost let myself believe in him back at my dorm I tried to push the whole thing out of my mind but it lingered how could I have been so stupid I was just trying to get to my locker when Jack stepped right in front of me his usual smile plasted on his face Charlie hey wait he called out but I
wasn't in the mood for any of it I stared at him arms crossed what do you want Jack Still pretending to be some kind of changed person he looked confused but not for long his eyes softened like he was trying to figure out what I meant Charlie what are you talking about I'm just trying to don't act like like you're different I interrupted cussing him off you'll never change Jack I know you too well he froze for a second like the words stung more than he expected but then without giving up he stepped closer Charlie
just listen to me for a second I no Jack I snapped shaking my head I'm done with this just stop acting like everything's fine it's not and it never will be he opened his mouth probably to say something else but I turned away before he could I didn't want to hear it I didn't want to hear how he changed or wanted to help all I knew was that he wasn't the same guy I used to know and I didn't have time for him so I kept walking ignoring his calls as I went I was sitting
by myself in the cafeteria eating lunch when someone tapped me on the shoulder I turned around surprised to see if it was the guy who had been bullied during the auditions the one who always seemed on edge I didn't know him well but he seemed different today uh hey Charlie he said shifting on his feet nervously Jack's your friend right have you seen Jack around I frowned not really expecting him to ask about Jack Jack no I haven't why well he paused glancing around before lowering his voice a little I really need to thank him
he helped me with my scene for the theater audition and I got the role without him I don't think I would have ever made it past the first round I blinked jack helped him that didn't sound like the Jack I knew wait Jack actually helped you when he nodded grinning a little now yeah man he gave me some tips and he was so patient even showed me how to act my role is of the antagonist it all hit me at once I remembered the day during the auditions when I thought Jack was just bullying the
guy he had been messing around sure but I realized now that he wasn't bullying him he was acting helping the guy get into character God I Mis stuck it all I couldn't help but feel a little guilty Jack had been trying so hard to reach out to me texts calls even random messages on social media but I ignored all of it every time his name popped up on my phone I just swiped it away and he didn't stop he kept calling kept texting always reaching out like nothing had changed Maybe I misunderstood him all along
maybe he really had changed I needed to see him now the moment the realization hit me my heart started pounding I couldn't ignore it anymore I had to find him I grabbed my stuff and rushed out of the cafeteria not really knowing where I was going but needing to make it right I couldn't just sit here and pretend like nothing had happened I ran R through the hallways dodging students and rushing to the dorms Jack's dorm was on the other side of the campus so it felt like forever before I finally reached the building my
mind was racing how could I have been so blind why hadn't I listened why had I pushed him away when all he had ever tried to do was help I practically flew up the stairs my breath coming in short gasps when I finally reached his floor I looked around frantically until I saw his door I paused took a deep breath and knocked quickly my heart hammering in my chest after a moment Jack opened the door his eyes widened slightly when he saw me standing there I could tell he wasn't expecting me hell he probably wasn't
even sure I'd ever come around Charlie he asked his voice low like he wasn't sure whether to be confused or relieved I didn't wait for him to say anything more I just stepped forward barely thinking before I blurted out Jack I'm sorry I was wrong about you I I misunderstood everything you've been trying to help and I I messed up I pushed you away when you were just trying to make things right Jack's eyes softened he didn't say anything right away just stood there looking at me probably waiting for me to say more then after
what felt like a long pause he let out a breath and gave a small relieved smile I figured you'd come around eventually he said his voice calm but with a hint of something else maybe hope I knew you didn't really mean it Charlie I just I didn't want to give up on you I felt a mix of embarrassment and relief wash over me but it was quickly replaced with something warmer I'm sorry for put in your way I was just angry and I didn't know how to deal with it I thought you were still the
same but I was wrong jack shook his head moving closer it's okay I get it you were hurt and it's hard to see when things are changing but I really have changed you know I've been trying even if it didn't look like it I know I whispered nodding feeling a huge weight lifting off to my chest I can see it now I just didn't want to admit I was wrong jack laughed softly his eyes softening well I'm glad you did it's good to finally talk to you I smiled at him and before I even realized
what I was doing I stepped forward and wrapped my arms around him in a tight hug I could feel my heart racing and I knew I had been so po stupid for pushing him away when all he ever wanted to do was make things right for a second Jack stood Frozen probably surprised by the sudden move but then he slowly wrapped his arms around me holding me just as tightly you okay he asked softly his voice gentle like he was checking in yeah I whispered holding him even tighter I'm okay now he pulled back just
a little still holding me close his gaze searching mine there was something in his eyes something soft and it made my heart skip a beat he didn't say anything just seemed to wait for me like he was asking for permission I nodded not trusting myself to say anything but the answer was in my eyes and then slowly Jack leaned in his lips brushing against mine in a kiss that was soft and gentle it was like he was making sure I wasn't going to pull away but I didn't I didn't want to pull away I wanted
to stay there forever right in that moment where everything felt right for the first time in so long the world felt perfect after that day Jack and I started dating we took things slow and honestly it felt right there were moments when doubts crept into my mind old fears old insecurities but I learned to push them aside I could see the change in Jack he wasn't the same person he used to be and neither was I we were both better for it sometimes I still worried but every time I looked at him I knew I
was making the right choice Jack had shown me he was trustworthy kind and patient and more than anything I wanted to be there for him just like he had been there for me together we were finally figuring things out the end do you believe people can really change thanks for watching consider subscribing to become a part of our rainbow force and stay wholesome
