Semua Bab A TASTE OF SIN: Bab 21 - Bab 30

The next couple of days were weird. You're probably thinking that Hudson has been doing more crazy things to me, but that's not it. He's barely even acknowledged that I existed. Yes I went for the practice and met in locker rooms, talked about the game but even then, it wasn't a stimulating conversation.Practice wrapped up without incident, and I'd head home with Sophie in tow, her chattering about some freshman drama filling the silence in the car. But instead of peace, this nagging emptiness settled in my chest. Did I... miss it? The way he'd push my buttons, making my blood run hot? It sounded insane even in my own head. I'd lie awake at night, staring at the ceiling fan spinning lazy circles, replaying old moments: that time in the school field when he'd tackled me a little too hard..At some point, him ignoring me was helping me since I'm with Rose and don't plan on leaving her because I genuinely love her? But the main question I had to ask was did I like Hudson? I don't even

I couldn’t look at him. Could only stare at my hand where his had been, skin still buzzing like live wires. My ear burned where his tongue had been. My whole body felt lit up from the inside.“When you’re ready to talk about why I am now different,” he said, stepping a couple of steps back, giving me air, “I’ll be here.” He added.He turned and started walking again, hands back in his hoodie pockets, leaving me standing there in the snow with my heart slamming against my ribs and my lips parted like I’d been about to say something stupid.I wanted to call him back. I wanted to shove him into the nearest snowbank and kiss him until neither of us could breathe but I have to stay faithful to Rose. She is my girlfriend and I love her. Why is it like Hudson can make me question my own relationship? Hudson makes me question everything. I looked at him leave for a moment then the temptations became irresistible. Before I Could stop myself, I began following him.“Hudson.” I finally called hi

I was never one to worry too much about what others thought of me. It wasn't that I was extremely confident but more like I just didn't think about it. Something had changed in me recently and suddenly I felt like I was being suffocated with insecurity. It might have started when I kissed Hudson, but I couldn't be too sure. The uncertainty I felt around him made me feel so out of control and I worried what he thought about my every move. I worried that my attraction to him was one sided, even though it didn't seem that way when he kissed me back.Hudson never replied to my message after us kissing. I checked my phone the rest of the weekend like a fool and was left unsatisfied. When he came to school on Monday afternoon for the practice, I didn't know how to act around him. What we had shared together didn't seem to matter and I feared that if I brought it up, I would seem desperate."What are you thinking about?" Sophie pulled me from my thoughts, causing me to face her as the two o

The team was already stretching in loose lines when I joined it. Eyes flicked my way, some curious and some who were happy that I was no longer their captain openly smirked. Word of the cafeteria fight spreaded like gasoline on fire, but I later got used to it. My mind was on something else now. Hudson, my happiness.And he was already on the field.He stood near the fifty-yard line in full pads, arms crossed, talking low with Coach Matthews. His dark hair was damp at the temples, jaw set and shoulders broad under the shoulder pads. He looked exactly like he had last night, except now he was wearing the captain’s “C” stitched on his jersey. I got used to it and I no longer cared.Coach spotted me first and he blew his whistle once and sharp.“Liam! Front and center.”The team quieted. I felt every pair of eyes track me as I walked over. Hudson didn’t turn right away. When he finally did, our gazes locked for half a second, long enough for me to see the flicker in his eyes. Not anger.

We stayed like that for maybe thirty seconds, foreheads pressed, breaths mingling and the faint salt of sweat and Hudson's cum hanging between us until the crunch of footsteps on gravel snapped the bubble.Hudson jerked back first, eyes widening in pure panic. He yanked his pants up with frantic hands, fumbling the waistband, while I scrambled to my feet, wiping my mouth again even though there was nothing left to wipe. My knees ached from the gravel, my own erection still throbbing uselessly in my cup, but adrenaline had replaced lust in about half a second.Around the corner came Olivia Bieber, cheer captain, Hudson's very public girlfriend, ponytail swinging like a weapon, pom-poms tucked under one arm, phone in the other hand like she'd been mid-text when she decided to hunt him down.She stopped dead when she saw us.Her gaze flicked from Hudson , red-faced, jersey still untucked, hair wrecked, lips swollen to me , same wrecked state, gravel imprinted on my knees, breathing like
