Story: Pretty Poison

“Come on…” I got up and finished the martini in the middle of the process, drinking it all in one gulp. “I love this song.”

“Even I'm not that old...” she mocked but followed me to the middle of the dance floor.

When we arrived at a good spot in the place, with some people dancing around me, I pulled her by the waist while swaying my body to the rhythm of the music and singing along with her and more than half of the bar. In the corner, I even noticed a small stage with three microphones on top.

“What is that?” I questioned, bringing my face closer to hers and pointing to a corner.

“It's karaoke. We do it every Wednesday and Thursdays” she explained, proudly.

I loved the idea. My secret talent: I sang. I didn't think it was anything special, but I was in tune. And I loved karaoke, so at that moment, at that discovery, I felt like I was in paradise.

“That's incredible. I love karaoke” I admitted.

“Well, it will be an honor to have you here again…”

I smiled and leaned further forward over her slender body, but luckily, I didn't have to bend down for my nose to brush hers. Hayley was as tall as me, which was great.

“Are you going to kiss me, Kendra? Or just tease me?”

I bit my own lip, but I felt a shiver run through every inch of my body when her mouth lightly touched the corner of my lips.

“Because I'm not going to kiss you unless you ask...”

I laughed weakly at his face.

“Oh, so you're that kind of girl.”

“You're the new one here, so you better tell me what you want and how you want it, princess. Otherwise, you will get nothing.” Her voice floated slightly hoarse and lower, sounding like a siren’s call.

I raised my hands to her soft cheeks and sealed my lips on hers to the sound of Kim Petras.

Hayley's scent was permeating me, but I couldn't say I wasn't satisfied. In the end, I made the right decision to meet theredhead downtown. She was nice, kind, and her experienced mouth seemed to read my entire body. She paid my car back to the university and I saved her number beyond the dating app. I didn't want commitment or even thought about it, but in the hell hole I was in, maybe it would be good to have a regular fuck on speed dial. But just maybe. I was still considering what I was going to do about it.

I entered the dorm and, to my complete misfortune, the first people I was able to meet in the hall, at two in the morning, were my two roommates.

Jaz seemed a little too excited, while Sidney seemed tired and mostly done with the night.

“Wow, someone had sex!” Accused Jaz, mockingly.

Sidney gave me an amused smile and I shrugged.

“It's none of your business...” I started walking towards the stairs.

“But we are curious, and you could be a good roommate and share information, huh?! “Sid teased lightly.I sighed and looked at the two who followed me.

“You know that curiosity kill the cat, right?!” I declared, jokingly. “But just know that it was great.”

They laughed.

“Ah, at least sex was good for one of us today...” Jaz mocked and I pulled her, linking my arm with hers.

“Now I want details!”

“You first! “She replied.

Sidney just laughed at the scene, but hooked onto my other arm.

“Well, at least you both had sex. Can you stop throwing it in my face now?” complained our third roommate, closing the matter as soon as we entered our room.
