But it’s too late. I can’t stop.
I drop my head onto her shoulder, my body shaking through the release.
“River.”
“Yeah?”
“Did you just … come?”
“I’m so sorry,” I mumble against her skin.
I’m so fucking embarrassed. No, I’m mortified.
“I’ll make it up to you, Chloe, I swear.”
I feel her body shaking beneath mine. It takes me a few moments to realize that she’s laughing.
Heart pounding in my chest, I push up onto my hands, moving away from her.
“Did you get that?” she says.
“What?”
My head swings around, and I see Brad fucking Thurlow stepping out of her closet with his cell phone in his hand.
“Yep. Got it. All five seconds of it.” He stares at me, laughing.
“What the fuck?” I jump off the bed and grab my jeans off the floor. I quickly pull them on along with my T-shirt, pushing my feet into my sneakers.
I hear a ping come from his phone.
“And, now, everyone else has it, too.” He laughs again loudly, caustically.
“What the fuck did you do?”
My head is swiveling between him and Chloe.
“Did you send it already?” Chloe’s voice is high-pitched and grating. “You said you’d make sure no one knew it was me!”
“Chill, babe. You can’t tell it’s you. You don’t see your face, and he never said your name once. He could’ve been fucking his gran, for all anyone knows. Probably does, the freak.”
“What the fuck did you do, Brad?” I growl, my hands clenching into fists at my sides.
Brad grins and holds his phone up, screen facing my way.
I can see my bare ass and the back of my head on-screen.
“Fuck, okay, I’m doing it. God, you’re so fucking hot. I can’t believe I get to fuck you,” I hear myself say on the video.
A few seconds later, I’m watching myself come.
Misery crawls up my spine. I squeeze my eyes shut, trying to block it out. Shut everything out. Memories fighting to the surface, ones I fight so hard to keep locked away.
“River,”I hear Chloe’s voice on-screen.
I didn’t notice the mocking tone when she first spoke. Probably because I was too overcome from coming. But I’m hearing it now.
“Yeah?”
