Five Lovestories

"This looks perfect." He grinned and looked in the mirror.

Apparently, I was quite good with outfits too.

"And you're sure that you're not saying that just because I picked it out for you?" I asked with my arms around his shoulders from behind.

He slowly rolled up his sleeves with a concentrated face. When he was done with them, he tilted his head up on the side, and the two dimples appeared next to his open smile.

"I'm sure." He said and turned around so we faced each other.

"You know what? I gotta go to my place.. I have to make a call." I said with my arms still around his good-smelling neck.

"Okay." He said and gave me a qiuck kiss.

It was weird, Harry was never the one who kissed someone, at least me, quickly. He prefered to show me his skills, his amazing, soft tongue. He liked to feel our lips touch and taste the flavour of my sweet kiss. He wanted to hold me, feel me, enjoy me. So kissing him only quick, and once, was weird. I smiled, and was just about to walk out of his room, when he grabbed my arm. I knew it, I thought amused as he pulled me in for a proper snog.
I got up to my dormitory, and I was hoping for the one thing I had been hoping for the last couple of days, to find Bim there. I opened up, but she wasn't there. Of course. I sighed, and closed the door. I wasn't sure if I really had to make a call, maybe I just came here in hope to see Bim. But when I thought about Bim, I started to think about friends, the next thing I knew, I sat with my phone and dialed Sarahs number in. I did come here to call someone, after all.

"Please answer.." I whispered.

The line cracked, but a boys voice speaked in the other end of the phone.

"This is Sarahs phone, who's this?"

I frowned, and couldn't say a word.

"Hello?"

"Uh, y-ya.. who's this?" I said finally.

"I'm Billy Merphy, why?"

I still didn't get it.

"Can I speak with Sarah?" I asked instead.

"Yeah, okay. Hang on a second.."

I could hear him hand over the phone to someone.

"Hello?" Sarah said.

"Hi, it's me!"

Even though it sounds impossible, I could litterally hear how she smiled.

"Hi, babe! What's up?"

"Oh, nothing, I just wanted to hear your voice." I smiled. "Hey, did you hire like a guard or something? Who was that guy?"

She laughed loud.

"That was Billy. He slept over." She giggled.

"I bet that wasn't the only thing he did." I teased.

"Well, I haven't changed since you went away." She said with a warm laugh.

"Me neither.. I miss you." I said.

"Oh, honey. I miss you too. Why don't you ditch college, and come home again?"

"And screw up my whole future? Where would I even live?"

"At my place!"

I sighed. She had no idea what she was talking about.

"No, I can't.. Besides.."

I didn't know how to end that sentence, but I wanted to say that I had fallen in love. But then I would have to explain that I actually had fallen in love with five boys, and that we all had made up a schedule for it to work. I didn't know how she would take it, but I still didn't wanna say too much about it.

"Besides what?" She asked.

"Well.. I've.."

Just tell her, you idiot, I thought. You two used to be best friends.

"I'm dating someone.." I said.

I'll tell her about the other boys another time, I thought.

"You are?! Oh gosh, that's huge! Who is he?"

"Well, his name is Harry.."

"Oh, right, I think you told me about him before, but I never thought you would date him!"

I smiled.

"So, have you slept together, and was it great?"

I froze by her words. Having sex with someone was never a problem for me, but with Harry.. I just wanted to make it special. Why couldn't Sarah get that?

"No, we haven't."

"Well.. then you must plan to do it tonight, right?"

I honestly hadn't even thought about it.

"U-uhm.." I stuttered.

"Ah, c'mon! If I know you right, you're just to shy to tell me that you have been riding him every night since you got together.." She chuckled.

"No, I haven't. I'm serious, Sarah. He's not a one-night stand, or just a fuckbuddy. I actually like him."

Sarah sighed.

"Fine, if you say so. But seriously, if I was him, I wouldn't be able to keep my hands off you. So I really don't understand why you haven't slept together yet."

As much as I was flattered by her words, I was still slightly hurt by them too. She didn't understand, even though she tried to.

"Well, I think he wants to, but I just.."

I was stunned by the words I was about to say.

"I don't know if I'm ready."

Sarah was quiet. I knew it was big for her.

"Well, wow.." She said eventually. "That's pretty.. new."

"Sarah, please try to understand.." I said.

"Yeah, yeah, I do.. Uhm, I gotta go. Bye."

She hung up. Why didn't she understand? It was simple really, I wanted to make love to Harry, not just have some hurried sex. I would go for it before, but not with him. Not with any of the guys either.
Suddenly, I remembered. I had to get ready for Tims party tonight, and I didn't have so much time. I jumped in the shower, got on my makeup, took time on my hair and got into my clothes. Harry was right, he was good with outfits. I looked.. pretty.
