told me.
“How could you possibly know that?”
“Bodie told me when he drove me home. He thinks you two are secretly dating.”
“What did you tell him? And how would Bodie know when Major has sex?”
“I told him that as far as I knew, you two were just friends and helping each other study. I have no idea how Bodie would know that, but they’ve been friends a long time so maybe they just know things about each other.”
“Bodie has to be wrong. I mean, he won that stupid sex contest.”
“Maybe he had a lot of sex in the first two weeks. I don’t know Kayleigh, I’m just passing along info that I got.”
“I’ll just ask him myself,” I said.
“And you think he’ll tell you?”
“Yes, we promised no more secrets.”
Karma gave me a doubtful look, but I texted him anyway.
Me: When was the last time you had sex?
Major: You mean like stick my dick in a pussy, sex?
Me: Yes
Major: The same night you used Major Bunny for the first time
Me: Really?
Major: Yes
Me: Why? I thought you loved having sex.
Major: I do. But with all the fun we’ve been having I haven’t needed to.
Me: Oh
“So?” Karma asked.
“Bodie was right. He hasn’t had sex with anyone in a bit.”
“Interesting. You seem surprised,” she said, raising an eyebrow at me.
“I am,” I admitted.
“You really thought that the whole time you two have been sexting and stuff that he was with other women too?”
“Of course I did. I assumed he was going about his normal routine and just helping me out.”
My phone dinged.
Major: Why did you want to know?
Me: Bodie told Karma that you hadn’t had sex in over two weeks and I didn’t believe her
Major: What else did Bodie tell her?
Me: That he thinks we’re secretly dating
Major: Do you want to date for real?
Me: ??? You told me you don’t date.
Major: I don’t, normally. But maybe I could try with you.
Me: Are you really serious or just teasing me?
Major: Serious. Kayleigh, would you like to be my girlfriend?
I was staring at the last text, so when my phone rang it scared the crap out of me.
“Hello?”
“Kayleigh, it’s Major.”
“I know, I have you programmed in my phone, remember.”
“Yeah right. Look, about the last text, that wasn’t me. Bodie had my phone and thought it would be funny to text you that. He doesn’t think his black eye is funny though.”
“You hit him for texting me?”
“I punched him for touching my phone and being an ass.”
“Oh, okay then. I thought it was kind of strange that you were asking me to be your girlfriend. He didn’t see anything else did he?”
“No just the part about me not having sex for a while. That part was me and it’s true.”
“I see, well thanks for calling I guess. Bye,” I said and hung up.
“What was that all about?” Karma asked.
I told her about Bodie texting and what Major did.
“Why do guys have to be such douchebags sometimes?” she said, clearly annoyed.
I just shrugged my shoulders. “Who knows. Well, I think it’s time for me to go to bed. Are you staying up?”
“No, it’s been a long day and I need to catch up on my sleep.”
“Okay, good night Karma.”
“Night,” she said.
I went to my room feeling a little disappointed.
Chapter 42
Major
I stared at my phone after Kayleigh hung up. I couldn’t help but feel like she was upset when she ended the call. I went back over the texts that Bodie had written pretending to be me. I re-read the last one a few times, Kayleigh, would you like to be my girlfriend?
When I called, I was mad at Bodie for what he was doing. Kayleigh probably thought I was mad at the thought of dating her. She was right that I’d never dated before, but I’d never met anyone I’d ever wanted to date. The superficial fake chicks from school were good enough for sex, but definitely not dating material.
Did I want to date Kayleigh? Since the immediate answer wasn’t a no, I was going to give it some thought. I didn’t even know if I was capable of dating someone.
I put my phone down and went to check on Bodie.
“You okay man?” I asked.
“Yeah. I deserved it. Sorry man. Is she mad?”
“I don’t really know. She hung up before I could really think about what was going on.”
“So, tell me the truth, Major, what’s up between you and Kayleigh? I know you’re not dating and I don’t think you’ve had sex with her, so what gives?”
“If I tell
