Two Wrongs Don't Make It Right

I drove down the street looking for the house that I needed. I had left as soon as Chloe and I got home from the grocery store. She knew where I was going so she gave me a hug and wished me luck.

I pulled into the driveway and got out. Walking up to the door I took a deep breath trying to calm myself. My stomach turned and I felt like I was going to be sick. I lifted my hand rapping it against the dark wood door a few times. There was no going back now.

I heard a muffled ‘coming’ and soft footsteps, growing louder as they got closer. The door swung open and before either of us had time to say anything I stepped forward. I stood on my tip toes pressing my lips to his.

He places his hands on my waist pulling me closer. I smile against his lips before pulling away after a minute.

“What are you doing here?” He asks.

“I needed to talk to you and I knew I needed to do it in person.” I tell him. He grabs my hand and leads me inside closing the door behind us. We walk into the living room and sit down on the couch. I turn to him.

“I’m sorry for just showing up here and I am sorry I haven’t been very talkative lately. I’ve had a lot on my mind. Between the line and the band things have been hectic, not to mention my boy drama.” I laugh nervously trying to lighten the serious mood that had settled over us. “I needed some time to think and figure out what it was that I wanted.”

“And you have figured it out?” He asks cautiously. I just nod and smile at him.

“Tony I need to tell you something first, before anything else happens or you find out from someone else.” I look down at my hands. “A couple days after you and I slept together Austin showed up at my house. We ended up getting into a pretty big argument, but we ending up having sex.”

He frowns looking at me. “Then why are you here? Why didn’t you go to him?

“Because I realized that as much as I love Austin, what he did is something I can’t overlook. He said he was scared, that he fell so fast and it scared the shit out of him. I can’t trust that he won’t run away again when something else happened. I care about him but it is you that put me back together. It is you that I know I can trust not to hurt me. I want you. I feel safe when I am around you.” I explain. I grab his hand and lace our fingers together.

He smiles and pulls me to him kissing me hard. I nip at his lip and he pulls away leaning his forehead against mine.

“I’m glad you chose me. I knew there was a big chance that you would go back to Austin.” He says.

“I can’t put myself back into that position.” I shrug. “Hey tone.”

“Yeah?” He whispers.

“Can we just tell close friends right now? I am really serious about the band and I don’t want people to think that I’m using you or that we are only getting exposure because I’m dating you. Ya know?” I say.

“I am perfectly fine with that.” He states. “I know you aren’t trying to hide us. I don’t want anyone to think badly of you. I’m kind of a private person anyway if you haven’t noticed.”

“I have and I love that about you. Sometimes it drives me crazy ‘cause I just want to know what’s going on in that head of yours.” I laugh. He smiles at me.

“I’ll try to be more open about stuff when it comes to you.” He tells me.

We curl up on his couch and watch some TV. The mood is very comfortable between us. I know I have to tell Austin, but right now I just wanted to enjoy the worry free time I had with Tony. He really was the most understanding person I knew. I was lucky to have him in my life.
