I’d never wanted to kiss someone more than I did right then, standing in the middle of a crowded dance floor in nothing but my Pikachu boxers, dancing with a woman who was unlike anyone I’d ever met.
I didn’t know how I’d existed before I met her.

A moment of clarity shot through my head and I shifted us to one side, reaching for the pack of condoms I’d stashed on the nightstand earlier.
At least ur better than Imo and Colm
“I am your jungle gym. Play to your heart’s content.”

Flashes of the end of last year bombarded me: the accusations, the smug looks from so many people like they’d just been waiting for me to fuck up, the inevitable whispers even after I’d been vindicated. Not a single word when my name was cleared. Not a single apology
