Katarina
Straight to voicemail for the fifth time. Where the hell is she? Did she not like it? I mean she was the one who started it so whats the fucking problem.
I sit down on the couch running my hands through my hair. What did I do wrong? What if she thought the kiss was bad? I mean I liked it. I lean into the couch screaming into it.
Then my phone rings and I instantly leap to it. Thats her! Thats her! Holy shit! I clear my throat acting calm as answer it but my heart is beating like crazy I can feel it about to explode.
"Whats up?" That was stupid. Why would I say that? "Hey Kate I don't think I'm gonna stay home tonight I'm staying with a friend."
"Oh."
Oh.
"W-what friend?" I stutter out and suddenly I feel heavy. "Uhh..." Theres a long pause and rustling as I wait for her to answer. "Chloe's dorm. She's still waiting to get a new roommate and was scared to stay by herself."
"Alright then. I guess I'll see you tomorrow?" Why do I feel so disappointed. Who cares if Chloe's alone. I'm alone now.

Victoria
"Did she buy it?" I look back at the brown haired woman I used to call my best friend. "Yeah she did."
"You remember our sleepovers?" Sadie smiles walking towards me as I'm sat on the chair. "Vividly." I respond back swallowing harshly. She leans into me breathing against my neck.
"God I missed you. I missed us." This doesn't feel right. I kissed her sister not even five hours ago and now shes flirting with me. But what am I supposed to tell her? She doesn't even know about the marriage between Kate and I.
"When are you gonna tell Kate?" I ask distracting her from kissing me. She immediately leans back sighing. "I don't want to talk about that right now."

"Shes about to turn 20 Sadie. Are you just gonna let her think you've been dead for the rest of her life?"
She looks away and a look of maybe passes through her. "Sadie come on." I scoff.
"Why are you so invested anyways! Shes my family and last time you couldn't stop telling me how much you hated her."
"Well shes my family too now!" She looks at me weirdly and I want to stop the words about to flow out of my mouth. "Your dad arranged a marriage for us and I signed it. We both did. Its been a week or so."
Her eyes hold no emotion behind them as she stares at me and suddenly my palms are sweaty and my thoughts are going a million miles per minute.
"Y-you what? The marriage we were supposed to have- You fucking married my sister!" I step back as she steps forward towards me.
"I-I wanted to tell you I swear I just didn't have an opening. I mean theres not exactly a way to say something like that." My voice cracks.
"Did you sleep with her?"
"No! No! I would never." I respond immediately. Almost too quickly. "Good."
"Your dad arranged a marriage for us because of his busin-"
"I don't wanna know. As long as she doesn't touch you I'm okay with it." Well she didn't exactly touch me. It was quite the opposite. She holds my face in her hands kissing my forehead.
"You're so pretty Victoria." She kisses my nose and I force a smile. "T-thank you." She leans in to kiss my lips but I tilt my head slightly and her lips meet my cheek. She doesn't seem to think much of it as she begins placing small kisses down my throat.
A month ago I would have been into this. But now I feel completely disgusted. Not towards Sadie but at myself.

"I-im sorry Sadie I don't really wanna do that tonight." I murmur and she backs away. "Thats alright. Wanna watch a movie or something?"
"I think I should go back home actually. There's a meeting Kate and I have to attend with your dad tomorrow." I lie and she nods slowly.
"Okay. When will I see you again?"
"Next week for sure." I smile hugging her tightly.
"I love you." She says quietly and I freeze. "Yeah you too. Bye." I back away walking out to my car.
"What the fuck am I doing?" I whisper yell hitting the steering wheel. I should have just told her. I should have told her I might have feelings for Kate.
But I hate Katarina. She's horrible. I hate how she never cleans up after herself, is a complete whore, impatient, narcissistic. She's never been in a relationship before either.
Shes the complete opposite of Sadie. Sadie's sweet, she cares and listens to me. And I'm fucking our relationship up because of Kate. Katarina Vasquez the woman who's on my nerves 24/7.
I rub my temples leaning against the headrest.
That kiss today probably didn't mean anything to her. Who knows she probably told me she had erectile dysfunction so I could suck her dick. And I fell right into her trap. Im so stupid.
————
I open the door quietly as I find a body laying on the couch. I move closer to find Kate with her mouth slightly open and her eyebrows furrowed like shes confused about something.
My stomach flips as I sit down on the edge of the sofa and then a hand grabs me pulling me down.
"Oh fuck!" An arm is around my throat and im laying faced down in an instant. "I-its me K-Kate." I choke out yet im still trapped.
"Oh God. Im so sorry." She rasps out loosening her hold as she turns me over to get a good look.
"See?" I hold in a smile. Where did she learn those moves. Shes done this like twice already and I want her to teach me.
"I thought you were gonna sleep at Chloe's" She yawns cutely. Did I just say her yawn is cute? There's no way. Yawning has to be one of the most hideous facial expressions a human can make besides sneezing.
"I was but there was only one bed and it was a twin so I decided to go back." I lie. "Nice."
"I mean that sucks. I sure as hell didn't miss you here." She says clearing her throat.
"Aww don't tell me you missed me." I poke at her chest and she rolls her eyes getting up. "Of course not." She mumbles as I follow her to the room.
"Do you usually get clingy when your sluts suck your dick?" I tease.
"Are you calling yourself one of my sluts?" She taunts and I stop in my footsteps. I really did didn't I? I have no comeback.
"You can be if you so desperately want to. The head wasn't thattt bad. Still have a lot to work on though." Kate says matter of factly.
"As if. And I give the best head in the history of heads." I blush. Why would I say that? That was my first time since i've never been with someone who has a dick.
"Just go to sleep Victoria." She laughs and I mock her laugh suddenly annoyed.
