A night with Mike

Rebecca's POV

Mike was something else. He was hilarious. I had always thought he was strict because of his academics, but I was wrong. In fact, he was the one who cooked us supper tonight. It was better to be with him than being alone, since Nica was not here today.

“Rebecca, here is your food.” He told me as he served me my meal.

Oh, what a gentleman. I thought for myself. We ate as we were laughing our hearts out. It was charming being with him. I did not know how time flew until it was already midnight.

All this time Carlos had not even texted me goodnight. Was he alright, or something had happened to him? This was so unlike him.

“Babe, are you alright.” I decided to text him first. I could not call because of Mike, even though nothing was going on between us.

“I am ok, Just studying Hun. Sorry, I have not texted today.” He replies almost immediately. And my heart sighs a sign of relief and I smile when I read his text message.

“Don’t worry babe, I understand. I will call you later. I miss your Voice.” I replied.

I noticed Mike was looking at me the whole time, and suddenly, he had lost interest in our conversation.

“I will be going now. I have to study Rebecca.” He said as he stood up.

Maybe he would rather not spend time with me anymore. It's late already, and I know his mind is already exhausted, so there is no way he was going to study at this hour. It is just an excuse to get out of my house.

“It is ok Mike, there is no problem, it's late already, so it is better to go. Thanks for the company anyway” I ended up saying.

I noticed I was angry at him. Why was I even angry in the first place? There is no reason for me to be so emotional like this. “Stop it Rebecca.” I tell myself.

I decide to get up and open the door for him. “Good night Mike. See you on Monday.” I say to him as I open the door.

Instead of going out, he hugs me tight as if I were going away. I could feel his erection inside his trousers. “Mike. You better go.” I ended up saying. “I am so sorry, Rebecca.” He said, then he left.

I ended up feeling guilty of what I had done to him. He is so good and nice to me all the time and there is no time he ever disrespected me. I could not afford to lose his friendship. He helps me a lot and I value what we have.

I closed the door behind me, and before I could even sit, I heard a knock at the door. Maybe Mike has decided to come back again. Perhaps he feels the guilt I feel. Poor Mike. I can’t even face him right now.

“Rebecca, can you please open the door for me, please?” A female voice said. I recognized it. Thank God It was Nica and I knew she was drunk from the way she shouted my name.

“Oh Nica, what are you doing here at this hour and where are you coming from.” I asked.

She just looked at me with her sleepy eyes. I know she had real fun today from the way she looked. She had her shoes in her hands together with her purse. How did she even get here? This girl is something you know.

I decided to help her in because it was useless to ask her anything when she was like this. She smelled so horrible. I led her to my sofa, and she fell asleep immediately. She will have to explain to me tomorrow when she is sober.

I remembered I had not finished speaking with Carlos. I went over and checked my phone. He had texted like 20 minutes ago.

I know he was waiting for my reply, but I will call him instead. I had told him already. I call, and he picks up immediately.

“Hey Hun, how are you doing? I miss you.” He says. I realized how I had missed him so badly. I just wanted him to finish his exams and come running to me.

“I am fine, babe. I miss you more. I just want to see you. It has been a really long time since we saw each other.” I say.

I decided to go out of the house so that I can talk comfortably with him. I don't intend to disturb Nica. Let her sleep peacefully.

I noticed Mike was still seated outside. What was wrong with him? I thought he was already in his room by now. I decided to end my call and hear him out.

“Mike, what are you still doing here.” I asked with a lot of concern.

What was going on with him. I have never seen him like this. It was the other version of him. A version I have never seen before,

“Sorry Rebecca. I don’t want to go back without apologizing to you. I was waiting for you to come out, so I could talk to you. I see you have company inside already.” He says.

“Ohh that is my friend Nica, and please don’t worry about me. I am ok. Nothing has happened Mike and I understand you. So, I forgive you” I assure him.

He smiles, and he then gives me a peck on the cheek. “See you then. Good night.” He says

“Good night too Mike. Text me when you are already there.” I told him.

I stood there until he disappeared before going back inside.

Mike's POV

I decided to help Rebecca with her food. I prepare and serve it for her. She was tired, and it was obvious she needed my help. Being with her made me forget myself. I was not that “serious with books person” around her. We made up stories and laughed. We did not even notice time passing really fast.

But she changes her mood suddenly, and she texts someone on her phone. The person replies immediately, and I could see her smiling.

I don’t know what she was told that made her this happy. I feel jealousy running all over me. Maybe it was her boyfriend. I decided to leave, so I could give her time to have a peaceful chat with him.

“I will be going now. I have to study Rebecca.” I tell her, and it’s like she hates the idea of me leaving. Possibly, she wanted me to stay longer with her. So, I just stood up to see her reaction.

“It is ok Mike, there is no problem, it's late already, so it is better to go. Thanks for the company anyway” she says instead as she wakes up to open the door for me. She couldn’t even tell me to stay with her just for tonight.

She told me goodnight, and I could no longer hold my feelings. I hugged her so tight that my d**k got an erection. I just don’t want to let her go. I want her to be with me forever.

“Mike. You better go.” I hear her say.

Maybe she doesn’t like what I am doing to her right now. I can't lose her now. I apologize, then I go out. I want to go back to school, but I decided to wait until she gets out of her house. Even if it will be in the morning, I will have to apologize to her.

I saw a girl at her door, and she welcomed her in. so I decided to sit at her door. I pray that she comes out. I cannot handle this anymore. Luckily, she comes out while talking to her phone. Immediately she sees me, she hangs up.

“Mike, what are you still doing here?” She asks me.

I decided to tell her how sorry I was, and it looked like she had already forgotten about what had happened. It was not such a big deal to her. I relax a little, and I am happy that she still considers me her friend. I decided to kiss her goodnight.

“Good night too, Mike. Text me when you are already there.” She says.

Maybe she cares for me the same way I do.
