I joined the band club just because he was the leader. I always cheered for him whenever he performed on stage, but I guess I'll forever remain invisible.
"Jessy, you've been staring at Derrick for a while now," she said, pulling me out of my thoughts.
"Lower your voice," I whispered, quickly covering her mouth with my hand as I looked around to make sure no one heard.
"Hey, get your hand off my mouth!" she said, pulling away.
"So… are you and your mom still fighting?" she asked, changing the topic.
"No. I've agreed to her marriage."
"What made you change your mind?" she asked, clearly surprised.
Part of me knew it meant I'd get to see him more often and maybe I also felt guilty. But I wasn't about to admit that.
"I thought about what you said yesterday and decided to give them a chance," I replied with a small smile.
"Hmm… okay," she said, though I could tell she didn't fully believe me.
"I forgot to tell you, i hooked up with James, the class captain." here she goes again I rolled my eyes internally always discussing her flings with me which sometimes sends blood rushing to my vagina making me wet.
She goes on telling me how she seduced him how she sucked his dick, how he sucked her breast, how she felt when she sat on his face while he ate her pussy I'm already used to Maria's wild sex escapades I thought how good it would be if I tried this out with John or Derrick.While she kept talking, my thoughts drifted to Derrick… and then to John.
They were both my crushes.
Derrick had been my crush since grade one. As for John I didn't even understand what I felt for him yet. But somehow, it felt stronger.
"Maria, I have something to tell you," I said, cutting her off.
She gave me a look, signaling me to continue.
"My stepdad has a son… and I think I have a crush on him," I blurted out, squeezing my eyes shut.
Instead of lecturing me, she gasped softly.
"I thought you liked Derrick?"
"I do… but I don't know where this new feeling is coming from. I just can't stop thinking about him."I thought you like Derrick" she asked
"Yeah I like Derrick but I don't know where this feeling is coming from I just can't stop thinking of his blue eyes"
"Now you have to get him on your bed by hook or crook" she said squirming.
"This is all wrong I shouldn't be having this feelings will you believe I had wet dreams for someone I just met yesterday"
"You guys aren't related by blood your parents are just getting married" she widened her eyes as if realization hit her
"You had wet dreams for him gosh this is gonna be interesting you have to get him on your bed as soon as possible" she said squirming
"But how do I do that I said I'm not sure he likes me"
"Well you have to seduce him"
"What I've never seduced a guy before"
"Then you're not ready to get your pussy eaten by him" she said looking away
"Okay what's the plan" I finally gave in I know if I must get Mr cutie thrusting his shaft into me I must need Maria's help cos she's a pro in seduction
I leaned in as she whispered into my ear.
After school, I said goodbye to Maria as she drove off. I stood at the bus stop, waiting quietly.
Then a car pulled up in front of me.
The window rolled down, and there he was—Derrick.
"Need a ride?" he asked.
My heart skipped. Today might actually be the best day of my life.
"Sure," I said, trying to sound calm.
"Good, because we're heading the same way," he added.
I blinked. "Wait… what?"
"We live a few houses from yours."
I couldn't hide my smile. That meant I'd be seeing him more often.
I got into the passenger seat as he started the car. I kept stealing glances at him, hoping he wouldn't notice.
"When did you move in?" I asked.
"Last weekend," he replied, eyes still on the road.
"How did you know where I live?"
"I've seen you coming out of your building a couple of times," he said casually.
I nodded, feeling a bit shy.
I wanted to keep the conversation going, but somehow the silence felt… nice. Comfortable.
If someone had told me I'd be sitting alone in a car with Derrick one day, I wouldn't have believed them.
He glanced at me and smiled. "We're almost there."
My heart fluttered again.
Why does his smile look so perfect?
I wondered whose smile is more cuter him or John. And why am I even comparing him to John?
