knew Karma would eventually figure something was up, but she’d make more of it than what it was. I wasn’t his girlfriend or even a fuck buddy. He was a friend helping another friend out. I still fully expected he would be with other women. I just hoped he’d keep going with me until I was better at it and didn’t get bored with me.
As I went to bed that night, I was actually looking forward to seeing what he was going to send me. I just hoped I could handle it.

Having a good practice always put me in a good mood, and today, I’d had a great one. Karma and I got to English class and took our usual seats at the back. I was glad when Major came over and sat with us.
Class started, so it was time to pay attention. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Major on his phone. He really needed to listen to the professor if he wanted to pass. I agreed to help him, not do his work for him. He put his phone away and a second later, I felt mine vibrate in my pocket. I ignored it since I was in class.
Major leaned over to me. “Check your phone,” he whispered.
I knew I shouldn’t do it, but I was curious.
Major: Have you ever sucked a guy’s dick?
I don’t know what I was expecting, but that wasn’t it. I was trying furiously not to blush, but I wasn’t succeeding. I put my phone down and peeked at Major. He was grinning like a fool. He pulled out his phone and texted something else.
Major: You promised to respond. Truthfully.
He was right.
Me: No
Major: Want to learn?
I took a quick look at him. He just winked at me. I almost laughed at the look on his face. He knew what he said would get to me, but I’d asked for it, so I couldn’t bitch. I smiled and shook my head. I glanced to the other side of me to see if Karma had noticed. Luckily, it seemed like she hadn’t, but I knew I wasn’t going to hide this from her for very long. I went back to trying to listen to the professor for the rest of the hour.
I had lunch with Wes again. This seemed to be the thing we did together on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. We had a pleasant conversation then we were off to class again.
I logged into my computer and waited for Major to arrive and class to start. By the time class began, Major still wasn’t there. I wondered where he was. So far, he had yet to miss a class, even when he was acting like a dick last week.
When class was done, I packed up my stuff and got out my phone and texted him.
Me: Is everything okay?
I hoped I wasn’t overstepping my bounds, but it seemed like he was the type of guy who wouldn’t say anything if something was wrong.
By the time I got back to the dorm, I still hadn’t heard from him. I decided to leave it alone for now. He’d text me back if he wanted to.
Karma was on the couch doing homework when I walked in.
“Hey,” she said. “How was your day honey?”
That made me laugh.
“It was fine dear.” I put my bag down and grabbed a bottle of water. “Major wasn’t in Computer Science today.”
“Huh. Maybe he had a hot date,” she said.
“Maybe, but he likes computers, so you’d think he’d find a way to schedule a date after class.”
“You never know with boys,”
“True,” I agreed. “Whatcha working on?”
“Geology. We have a quiz Wednesday and I need to know my basic types of rocks.”
“Why did you choose Geology anyway?” I asked.
“I like rocks. You know, like diamonds, rubies, and emeralds.”
I shook my head and laughed. “You’d better find a rich husband,” I told her.
“Amen to that sister,” she said smiling.
We both did homework until it was time for practice. After we were done, we grabbed a bite to eat, then it was back to homework. We both had slacked off on the weekend and were paying for it now.
At 10:00 I called it a night. My eyes were tired and my brain was full. By the time I crawled into bed, I still hadn’t heard from Major. I wondered what was up. I made sure my alarm was set and I turned off my light. Just as I closed my eyes my phone
