Page 53 of Loving Violet
I reply, “I know. Then, I asked him if he was going to kiss me, to which he responded with, ‘Will you let me?’”
“Wait, hold up. You actually said that? I need to take my therapy spot back… This is a new Violet I am seeing! What happened next?” Josy asks, desperate for me to finish talking.
“All I could muster up was a slight nod. But honestly, at that moment, I would have let him do anything he wanted. He started kissing me and I was putty in his hands. I felt… I don’t even know how to describe how I felt at that moment.”
“Uhm. I like this. You are taking a chance on him, and I know it’s not easy, but I love that you are doing it. What happened next?”
“Long story short, he moved me to his lap and I started dry humping him until I came.”
“Oh my goodness. For real?”
“For real, the combination of his kisses and the dirty mouth on him made me come so fast, and hard. I had never felt like that before. He makes me feel different and I like that. It’s like he sees the real me and he likes it.”
Josy’s eyes widen with excitement and disbelief. “Damn, woman! That sounds hot as fuck.”
I begin to really blush now, thankful to have that glass of wine in my hand. “You are funny, Josy. But seriously it was possibly the best night of my life.”
“Wow! Really? Gosh, that sounds nice. Where can I find a man to talk to me like that? And when are you going out again? Girl, you need some more lovin’. You are glowing, and I’ve never see you smile like this.”
“I know,” I say, shaking my head in wonder. “I’m just blown away.”
Josy leans back, a satisfied look on her face. “You deserve this, Violet. After everything you’ve been through, you deserve to feel special and loved. I can’t believe that you arrived here a few months ago and now you are dry humping Austin while I’m alone most nights with the company of my trusty vibrator.”
I laugh at her words.This woman is crazy.
“Maybe, you should go out more.”
“Yeah. Someday,” Josy says.
“Someday… Stop waiting, Josy, because guess what? Austin and I are going out again soon. I can’t wait to see where this goes. You need to find your happiness, too, girl.”
“You go, Vi. And keep me posted on all the juicy details,” Josy says with a wink. “We can worry about me another time.”
“Will do,” I reply, feeling a surge of excitement for the future. “Oh, and don’t forget, Adrian and I are going to the animal shelter this weekend to find a puppy.”
“Yes, I will be there with you guys.” Josy gives me a warm hug. “I’m so happy for you, Violet. You deserve all the happiness in the world.”
“Thanks, Josy,” I say, hugging her back. “I couldn’t have done it without your support.”
We sit there for a while longer, talking and laughing, feeling grateful for the new beginnings and the promise of love and happiness ahead.
Josy smiles. “I’m glad, Violet. You deserve someone who treats you well.”
“I think I’ve found him,” I admit softly. “And he’s already made me feel more confident and hopeful about the future.”
“Well, cheers to that,” Josy says, raising an imaginary glass. “Here’s to new beginnings and finding happiness.”
I laugh and nod, “Here’s to that.”
Later, when I’m ready to go to bed, I check my phone and see that I have a few messages from Austin.
Austin: Did you get home safely?
Austin: Beautiful, please answer me. I’m getting worried.
Austin: Okay, I will go to your house if I don’t hear from you in the next five minutes.
I look at the time stamp and see that he sent the last message two minutes ago. So I text him back quickly.
