Chapter 94
After coming clean to Hunter about how I felt about testifying, I felt better. I still hated that I needed to expose the parts of myself which I was most insecure about. But it helped to know that Hunter wouldn’t look down on me because of it. I was thinking about if I should sit down and tell him everything that might come up. It would leave me completely exposed, but I didn’t mind that when it came to him. At the same time I was hesitant because maybe not everything would come up in court. I ended up talking to him about it.
“Sweetness, we don’t need to talk about it. We can talk about it if or when it comes up. But I have said what I’m going to say. I don’t care what happened in your past. I love you and nothing will change that. If you need to talk, if you want to explain things or just get something off your chest, then I’m here. Always. But don’t do it because you feel you have to,” Hunter told me
“Okay, I love you too,” I said. It settled my worry and as the trial date drew closer, I tried not to think of what it would mean. My work was a good source of distraction. I was grateful that my manager didn’t have any issues with the amount of half days I needed to take for my meetings with the prosecutors. In my first assessment meeting, she gave me praise for my work and asked if I would be interested in helping her with some administrative tasks. She assured me they wouldn’t be affected if I needed time off during the trial, I was happy to accept, as I liked working with her and I wanted to show that even though I had to take time off, I was dedicated to the company and I appreciated everything they had done for me.
a pizza the size of
It was Saturday and for the first time in months; I wasn’t going to spend the day with Hunter. Wictor had descended on my apartment with a p decent kitchen table and enough beer to fill may bathtub.
Га
“How a
are we going to eat all of this?” I asked as I took a slice of the t
pizza.
“Cuddles will help us,” Wictor told me and tossed a salami piece towards the doorway where Cuddles sat watching. He still wasn’t completely convinced that Wictor was an okay human. But the piece of food vanished. Cuddles watched Wictor for a moment longer and then seemed to make the decision that he looked harmless enough and had offered him food, so he was now on my cat’s approved list. As Cuddles parked himself between us as we sat on the floor by the couch, Wictor studied me. “How are you handling everything? It’s a week until the trial begins,” he asked.
“Better than expected, I would say. After my breakdown that I told you about, I have felt better,” I told him.
“And what about facing Simon and that bitch of a mother?”
“I try not to think about it too much, but it will be difficult. But you know, this isn’t just about me. Some of the things that may come out are just as much your story as it is mine. How do you feel about me talking so publicly about it?” I asked him. I took a bite of his slice and shrugged.
“I know you wouldn’t do it if you had a choice. Most of the things Tony knows about. If something comes up that he doesn’t know about, we will talk about it then. He has never judged me for my past, so I’m thinking it will be fine. As far as the rest of the world goes, fuck them if they judge either of us,” he told me. I gave him a smile. I knew a lot of what he said was him putting on a brave facade because he wanted to make me feel better. But it didn’t matter. I could read him well enough to know that even if he was more bothered by it than he made out, it wasn’t bad enough for me to be concerned.
“Speaking of Tony, how is that going?” I asked and wiggled my eyebrows at him. He laughed..
“First of all, never do that again. It’s just not an okay look on you.” he chuckled. “We are good. I won’t say that it’s like the good old times, because even if I really. really liked him back then it wasn’t a healthy relationship. But we have both grown and we are taking things as slow as we can. We are getting to know the new version of ourselves and that is fun. The sex is as good as it was when we first met, if not better. He has got over some of his hangups and I have become more assertive and it’s just such a good combination,” he said. I laughed and held up my hands,
“There is such a thing as too much information, 1 let him know,
“Oh, don’t be like that. For the first time ever we are both seriously dating good, hot men that are working their wonders in our sex life. We need to trade war stories. Come on, don’t be shy. What is the naughtiest thing you and Hunter have done?” he asked with a grin..
sure you
“Are you sure
want to know?” I challenged him. He opened his mouth to answer, then looked at me.
“Why? What have you tan been up to?”
“So I should tell you?” I teased him.
“This is infuriating! I don’t know, it sounds like I don’t want to know, like when you finally found someone you can be yourself with you have let go and become the biggest kinkster. But I won’t know if I want to know until I know. My brain!” he complained. I laughed and took another slice of pizza. Simon’s voice in my head. telling me how fat and disgusting I was, had almost disappeared. Instead I heard Hunter telling me I was perfect. “Okay, okay. I have decided. I do want to know. But if it scares me for life, I’m going after Hunter for the cost of my therapy,” Wictor told me. I had counted on him refusing. Now I was in a position where I needed to figure out what to tell him. I blushed as different memories popped into my brain. “Oh, this will be good,” he said, leaning in closer.
“Okay, so… There was this one time when I still li
lived with Hunter when he came home from work and I was in the middle of frosting cupcakes,” I started. Wictor went a little pale.
“Stop, sorry, changed my mind. It’s better I don’t know,” he told me. I giggled and dropped the subject. It was lucky, because I didn’t know if I could tell |
That
Hunter and I had used the frosting for. I enjoyed the rest of the day with Wictor. We talked about work and our relationships and when he headed home to get. ready for his date with Tony, Cuddles even let him give him a belly nib. I decided I would hake an apple pie for the next day when Hunter would come cort. It was almost done and the apartment smelt of apple and cinnamon when the doorbell ring. Thad stopped worrying about who was at the door. The building security was good and I had nothing to fear. Outside stood Hunter
“Hi, what are you doing here? Is something wrong? Is it Jason?” I asked. Hunter looked guilty.
“Sorry, I know we didn’t make plans for tonight and I didn’t mean to worry you. But I have missed you all week and my cravings won out. I can go wait in your bedroom while you and Wictor finish the evening, or I can drive around for a while and you can message me when I can come up. And I’m sounding like a clingy five–year–old. Sorry,” he said. I looked at him and smiled as I stepped aside to let him in
“You are always wekume, Hunter. Even if Wictor is here. But he has left for a date with Anthony. I have made apple pie that should be done any minute. Do you want a slice with ice cream?” I asked. Before I knew it, Hunter had swept me up in a kiss that left me dizzy.
“I needed that,” he told me. All I could do was to pod as the timer for the apple pie went off. “But I won’t turn down apple pie,” he added as he bent down to pick.
Cuddles up, who had been sitting at Hunter’s feet, making noises to let us know he wasn’t happy about being ignored. I smiled and kissed both the man and the col.
one on his lips, the other one on his head, and headed to take out the pie
