Click here"Thanks" he says, finally catching his breath. There isn't any irony in his voice and it makes me feel better for just dropping in so quickly.
"Yeah" I say, nodding to him as I open the door and leave that hot naked boy behind.
I look over at the dark void that is the student center which has been closed for a while now as I walk back from Derek's room over to mine. That goddamn bench from earlier is now empty without a trace of my best friend and his new guy. And once I see that, I return back to my building with some sense of relief. I stop at the vending machine downstairs and wrangle up any small bills I have to get a few bottles of water that I went out to get in the first place. As the final bottle falls, I look at my phone to see three messages.
The first is from Alec, telling me about this cool cafe that we should check out the next time we're both free. He adds a gif from The Office of Jim doing jazzhands which gets a chuckle from me. I make a note to respond once I get back up to my room and have more than a single free hand to text with.
The second is from Derek who wrote out a pretty blunt, "Let's do that again sometime." along with a wink. That one I know I'll leave on read until my next moment of weakness.
The last text is from Chase and it's a simple "Hangout tomorrow?" along with a few emojis that tell me he wants to have breakfast. Somehow that one holds the most worth.
I press the elevator button with my elbow, holding onto the three bottles of water I scored from the vending machine. As I make my way back to my room, I can't help but question if I'm a victim of circumstance or maybe just the biggest dick this city has seen. The elevator dings before I can come to a conclusion.
I feel so sorry for Griff, all his faults and we all have them. The struggle is awesome
He is so weak as he continues to react to any bit of stress with the immediate need to cheapen himself and his future relationship with Chase. By continuing to fuck Derek when he knows it is a wrong choice doesn’t protect his heart. It will lead to self-hate, disrespect of what he could have with Chase, and an unworthiness that he won’t be able to overcome. He needs to stop it right now and be strong enough to either admit to Chase how he feels or at least quit whoring around while he figures things out.
This story deserves an end, I'm glad you came back to it. Looking forward to more!
I'm glad this guy has a little bit of conscience for his own self-respect and relationships but I also see his mental dilemma to try to keep his heart from being broken.
