2021-10-09 22:47:05"Um… Nathan, did we use anything? A condom I mean?" I was in such a happy fucking stupor it took me a second to understand what she was asking and when I did, it was like my entire world froze in a matter of seconds.
How could I be so stupid? It's like the first thing anyone tells you about sex, you don't want babies or diseases? Put a condom on, it takes a matter of seconds! What the hell have we done?
"What do we do?" I ask her, like she's got any more of an idea than I do. She looks up at me with huge, terrified eyes. So I wrap my arms around her, pulling her close to me. "I'm sorry, it'll be ok. We'll figure it out."
"Morning after pill." She says, leaning up and looking down at me. I know it's probably not the time to be thinking this, but with the sunli

I love skiing, it makes me feel light and happy, unlike I have been in ages. It's ridiculous to say but I feel different, like sleeping with Nathan, losing my virginity to him, and confessing my feelings, has given the whole world a rosy glow and I can't stop smiling. I'm fairly certain if I didn't have ski's strapped to my feet, I'd be skipping around like a happy child. I know we were stupid not to use anything, but I can't bring myself to regret what we did, especially whenever I look over and catch him watching me. I feel like the luckiest girl in the entire world right now. "Earth to Leanna." Kim rounds on me as we sit on the ski lift, our legs dangling as we leave the ground. "I've been waiting all day for you to tell me what's going on with you and Nathan, I can't wait any longer." "I don't know, not reall

I keep behind Leanna as we go down the mountain, she looks so happy that I don't want to overtake her and not see it. She's always loved these holidays, even the years we were here when she hated me, she would be so happy out here that she'd forget we weren't friends and we could almost skip back into our previous easy banter, just for the week. It was both my favourite and worst time of the year, I loved having her back, but I hated knowing it wouldn't last, it was almost cruel, knowing what we could have had if I hadn't fucked up by kissing her. But that was the past, now, the girl of my dreams is talking about sneaking into my bed tonight and I plan on spending the hours waiting for her, on my phone, trying to figure out what I can do to her to make sure she enjoys it as much as I did last night.

My alarm rudely interrupts my sleep and I reach over to turn it off, only to hit a huge muscular body and remember where I am. “It’s too early, stay with me.” Nathan groans, rolling over and tugging me into him. “I can’t, the parents will go mad.” He groans again, pressing kisses to my shoulder and tempting me to stay, but I can’t, it would cause too much drama. “Nathan, I need to go before anyone else wakes up.” “Urgh, I know you’re right.” He pulls me against him for another kiss and I have to wrench myself away before I lose all my willpower. “Go back to sleep, I’ll see you later for breakfast.” I pull my pajamas back on and listen at the door, running across the hallway and into my own bed. I try to fall asleep, but my mind’s still reeling with everything that happened last night. Kim always raved about how good sex was, but now I know what she means, I’m surprised she ever stops, it was amazing and just the thought of it is giving me tingles between my legs that make me want

Kim and Jake arrive after breakfast, but my dad's made enough so they sit down and eat with us. It's weird seeing Jake in snow clothes, it should make him look less intimidating, maybe even a bit ridiculous, but somehow he looks just as scary in a puffy blue coat as he does in his regular jacket and jeans. It's no wonder he works at that bar on his own, even drunk adult men can see not to mess with him. Kim's clearly excited about having him here, she's been talking almost non stop since they arrived and he's watching her with pure adoration. The guy might be terrifying, but there's no doubt he's completely in love with her. The only time I see him take his eyes off of her is when he looks a Luke, a deep frown on his forehead as he sees the dark purple bruising on his face. We clean up the breakfast items once everyone's finished and Shane and Luke immediately run over to Jake. Clearly alongside Kim, those two aren't scared of him because they're chatting to him like they would a

While Nathan and I were intending to keep it quiet that we shared a bed last night, however, that was ruined when Kim came downstairs and announced that she pushed our beds together because a single bed is too small when she’s trying to share with a guy Jake’s size.My dad chokes on his coffee, Nathan’s parents disappear outside giggling like pixies and Shane, Luke and Gemma mute the TV and turn to watch the drama unfold from the sofa. My mum calmly puts her coffee down, rubbing my dads back as she chews over the words to say.“Why was Jake in your room and not in with Nathan?” She asks quietly and Kim laughs as though the answer is obvious. “OK, scratch that, do you intend to be sharing a bed throughout the remainder of this holiday?”“Yes mum.” Kim says, with n

My mum is crazy, particularly when she teams up with Leanna's mum, but the scariest part of their stupid little prank was that while I was sitting there, being forced to stare at Leanna's horrified face while my mum fake proposed on my behalf, I thought about what they were trying to scare me with and I wasn't scared, not at all. The images rushing through my head at the prospect of spending the rest of my life with Leanna were all good, going to university, living together, getting married, right here at this cabin, having children, I can't imagine wanting to do it with anyone else. But Leanna looked like she was being handed a death sentence and I can't blame her, that's the rational response for an eighteen year old who's only a few days into a relationship, not to embrace it wholeheartedly and want to help with table decorations.

I text my friends to pre warn them I'm driving in with Nathan this morning and wish I hadn't as I'm inundated with questions all the way to school, which don't stop even when I tell them I'll explain when I get there.Shane, Luke and Gemma hop out of the back and run off to meet their own friends and Nathan grabs my hand, walking with me towards where my friends are standing."I'll see you later." He whispers, kissing me on the cheek and squeezing my hand, and then he's heading away from me, over to where his own friends are."Classroom." Italia pulls me along behind her to our empty tutor room, Millie closing the door behind us and then they're all standing there, waiting expectantly for me to tell them what's going on."Uh… So Nathan and I are kind of seeing eac

The fact that someone has sent Leanna flowers is obviously bothering her more than it is me because she can't stop looking at the card, even once we get into her room."You could ring the florist?" I suggest, the fifth time she picks it up. "Ask them if they've got a record of who sent them?"She got her phone out immediately and googled the place on the card, clicking to call and then sighing, pressing the speakerphone to let me hear the answerphone message."Uh… hi, my name's Leanna Woodson, I had some flowers delivered today from yourselves and I wondered if someone could give me a call back please." She hangs up after giving them her mobile number."Hey, relax, it's flowers not a horse's head in your bed." I hug her, pulling her to lay down on her bed.

The pains start around 3am. I was in a lovely deep sleep when I was woken to cramps starting low in my back, reminiscent of the terrible food poisoning incident in Venice nine months ago that seems to be the cause of this particular incident. My own lack of education meant I didn't think twice about jumping on Nathan the second I felt better, not realising my contraceptive pill wouldn't be effective during a nearly week long episode of sickness and diarrhoea. We found out about a month after the wedding, two days after moving into our first home together. We'd both taken jobs instead of going to university. Nathan with an accountancy firm and myself at a legal firm, both of us signing contracts which meant they would train us and we would study from home, so while we could only afford to rent a house at the momen

The last few months at school were relatively relaxed, as much as they can be when you're taking exams that affect your future, but in comparison to what we'd been through the previous month's, I'd happily take the exams over and over again.Corrine was right when she said the police could do nothing about what she did, there was nothing illegal done, immoral definitely, but nothing they could charge her with. For the first week she strutted around, casting smug looks at us whenever she saw us and somehow managing to befriend Sally Matthews, so she had people to hang out with.That rapidly changed when Kim and her friends told everyone what she did, the gossip was rampant and although the other kids didn't approve of what she did to Leanna and I, it was the belief that she caused Max to go off the rails that really got her ostracised socially.

I'm not pregnant! It seems I never was. I've taken ten different tests. One from each brand in the shop, just to be sure. There wasn't even a hint of a positive on any of them. I've got mixed feelings. My sister, Jake, Shane and Luke all cheered with each negative result and I'm obviously relieved. There's no way I'm ready to have a baby, but I don't understand why Corrine would do this to me. She's meant to be my friend, Nathan's noticeably quiet, but he gives me a quick smile every time he realises I'm looking at him. I can't work out what he's thinking. After breakfast with the parents, we suggested rather strongly, that they go out for the day together, promising to clean up while they're out and it didn't take long before my dad was dragging my mum out to the car.

While Leanna is sorting things out with her friends, I'm catching up on homework. It feels too normal. With everything that's gone on recently, sitting here trying to figure out maths problems is quite nice. I never ever thought I would say something like that! After that, I lie back on my bed and watch a film, waiting for Leanna to let me know they've gone so I can go over and see her. This is the longest we've been apart since Max took her nearly a month ago and I can feel myself getting twitchy with the urge to check on her. Telling myself it's all fine, I wander downstairs to make a drink and a sandwich. I'm not really hungry, but at least it'll keep me occupied and I take it upstairs to eat while I finish the film. A knock on the door has me jumping out of bed and running downstairs, Corrine's standing there

I feel ridiculous with how nervous I am waiting for Corrine to come over. I haven't spoken to her for three days and she's ignored all my messages. Finally she sent a brief text this morning to say she'd come over this afternoon. Millie and Italia are already here talking about some show they both watched last night. Pretty sure they're trying to distract me, but I feel like my entire focus is downstairs, waiting for her to arrive. There's got to be a reasonable explanation for why she tried to make out like she and Nathan had a thing, right? Millie has reassured me repeatedly that it was the briefest of kisses and that Nathan was not involved at all, I think she thinks that I'm doubting him, which I guess I should a bit. I think I should be upset that Corrine kissed him too but I'm more concerned why one of my oldest and closest friends is behaving so oddly.

The news came early last week that Max has been transferred to a psychiatric unit for assessment, apparently he's still under the illusion that he and Leanna have something and I'm the one standing in the way of that. They're not sure who's most at risk from him; Leanna, me or himself.Leanna feels guilty, like she somehow did something to encourage him or send him over the edge. She keeps asking if I think she was too flirtatious with him, regretting the times she was a bit overzealous in her appreciation of something he did. I keep telling her she's like it with everyone, that she tells everyone she loves them, she told my sister that on our last holiday because my sister hid her a piece of the chocolate cake from being devoured by Luke and Shane.It's just her way, it always has been. I'm fairly sure her friends are the same. Italia and Corrine both to

It's been two weeks since Max took me to that cottage. Two weeks of people tiptoeing around me, treating me like I'm made of glass and trying not to upset me.My parents are being super protective and I understand that, they want to know where I am all the time and I'm having to text them every hour just to reassure them I'm ok, even Kim's finding reasons to be around me all the time and Nathan hasn't touched me more than a cuddle since I got back. I know he wants to, but whenever we even get close to starting something, he backs off, asking me if I'm ok and apologising for pushing me too far, too soon.It doesn't matter how often I tell everyone I'm fine, they think I'm just trying to put a brave face on, but I really am fine. I agreed to see a counsellor that the police recommended, but it all feels like a lot of fuss over nothing.

My parents are furious with me, Leanna's parents were furious with me, I'm pretty sure if I hadn't brought Leanna home after nearly three full days of not knowing where the hell she was, I'd have been being grounded, lectured and they'd be thinking up new punishments for me for weeks. All because I went off to rescue Leanna without taking them or even telling them where we were going, not directly anyway and I hadn't stopped long enough to actually tell Millie where we were heading so they could even follow us. They had to wait at home, helplessly, praying that we would all be ok.My only other saving grace is that I at least called the police and let them know where we were heading and what we anticipated on arrival. Jake saw the trouble I was in, so thankfully didn't mention it was him that called them, it hadn't even crossed my mind, I was too focused on getting to Leanna.

Max's arm is around me, tracing circles on my shoulder, his other hand gripping mine tightly and holding it in his lap. I can feel his erection through his trousers and I'm fairly sure he's holding my hand over it on purpose, almost as if to let me know how much he wants me tonight.My heart's hammering wildly in my chest and I have no idea what time it is, or how long the film's been going on for, but it feels like it should be finishing soon and I'm yet to come up with a plan to avoid having sex with him.About halfway through, he nudged my head so it was resting on his shoulder, so I pretended to fall asleep and I'm resting all my hope on the idea that he won't try to wake me tonight. But that plan is flimsy at best."Baby, wake up, the film's finished." He rubs his thumb over my cheek affectionately and I force
