Jake Undone(92)

“Jake…come on. Get in. I’ll drive you home.”

It was Lexie.

Without really thinking it through, I got in the car. It beat walking several blocks, feeling like crap.

Her car smelled like peaches, or was it her hair? I didn’t know. What I did know was that Lexie was bad news, and so was this decision I just made.

“Where do you live?”

“1185 Lincoln. It’s right over this Greek restaurant, Eleni’s.”

“Yup. I know that place.”

The streetlights and buildings we passed merged into one big blurred line. In less than ten minutes, we had arrived at my doorstep.

I turned to Lexie. “Thanks for the ride. I definitely had too much to drink…thanks to you.”

“Well, you were pretty upset when you walked in, and you needed to loosen up. After you told me why, I wanted to help even more.”

I slurred my words slightly when I said, “You did succeed in helping me get fucked up.” I laughed. “So, thanks…I think.”

“Anytime,” she said putting her hand on my knee. “And I mean that.”

“Okay…well, goodnight. Thanks again,” I said as I exited the car unusually fast, stumbling a little. I could tell she was disappointed that I wasn’t asking her in. Lexie was the type of girl I probably would have sought out a couple of years ago…sex with no strings or expectations. But Nina ruined me for other women. She was all I wanted.

I made it up the stairs and into the living room where I collapsed onto the couch while the room spun. I turned on the television and became fascinated by a Zumba infomercial. The dancers seemed to be jumping out of the screen and trying to merengue with me.

A few minutes later, there was a knock at the door. I pushed myself up off the couch and opened it.

Lexie.

She lifted up an iPhone. “Forget something?”

“Shit. Thanks,” I said, taking the phone. “How did you get up here?”

“You left the front door open. I knocked on the floor below, but the lady told me to ‘fuck off,’ so I figured door number three up here was the winner.”

Before I could bid her goodnight and send her on her merry way, she pushed her way past me onto the couch and crossed her legs as she sat down. With the thigh high black leather boots she was wearing, she looked like a whore.

“What are you watching?”

“Zumba.”

She started to laugh. “You’re funny, Jake.”

I lifted my index finger. “And drunk. Don’t forget drunk,” I said, joining her on the couch. I laid my head back. “Ditch the workout, join the party,” I mumbled.

“What?”

“Never mind.”

If I squinted my eyes, with her long blonde hair, Lexie almost looked liked Nina for a second. This girl was definitely sexy, but Nina was much prettier and classier.

A fucking angel.

Sexy alone just didn’t do it for me anymore. Actually, nothing except Nina did it for me.

Some time passed, but I was too out of it to know how many minutes. I must have fallen asleep, because the next thing I knew, Lexie was topless and straddling me over my jeans.

She whispered in my ear as she moved over me. “You’re so fucking hot, Jake. I want to go down on you.”

Fuck.

My dick was hard. I was out of it but not enough to ever make me want this. I couldn’t imagine giving myself in that way to someone else. I loved Nina. Even if she didn’t want to be with me right now, my body was hers.

I pushed her off me. “Lexie, get off.”

“I was getting off.”

“I meant get off of me. You should have never come in here. I really need to take a leak. When I come back out, I want you to be gone, okay?”

“I thought you wanted it. You were staring at my tits all night and look at you…you’re hard.”

“Lexie, with all due respect, you were sitting on my cock when I was asleep. It has a mind of its own. And as for your tits, maybe if you put them away, I wouldn’t have been staring at them. Now, please. You’re a very nice girl (…for a whore), but I told you earlier, I am involved with someone.”

I said nothing else before walking to the bathroom and taking the longest piss of my life. I must have been in there for ten minutes just sitting on the toilet while my head was spinning. A massive hangover awaited me tomorrow morning.

When I walked back out to the living area, Lexie was gone.

She was gone, but I wasn’t alone.

My heart. This couldn’t be happening.

Nina stood in the middle of the room with tears in her eyes.

Blood rushed to my head. “Nina? Nina…baby, what just happened? What do you think you just saw?”

She just continued to stand in front of me but said nothing as she licked the tears that were falling and held her eyes closed. She looked like she was about to hyperventilate.
