A New Day, A New Person

Nicole's eyes fluttered open as she felt the warmth of a new day sun drawn over her face. With a small hum, she rubbed her eyes and yawned before looking to her right and seeing Kenny's sleeping face on the pillow next to her. An easy smile grew on her face as she found herself merely watching the teen, A little close aren't you there, Clark? Nicole thought to herself before reaching out and gingerly pushing her fingers through Kenny's hair, brushing it away from his face. In the oddest of ways Nicole felt this peaceful calm wash over her body as she found herself stroking Kenny's hair, but almost as soon as this feeling registered, she stopped and pulled her hand away. This calm was replaced by what Nicole could only guess was guilt or shame...maybe regret even? The redhead tried to figure out where it was coming from, but she was drawing a blank.

Just then she felt a little odd sensation on her leg, in fact, her whole thigh did feel warmer than the rest of her body. She carefully lifted the blanket, letting some light under it only to see Kenny’s hard-on resting on her leg. Her eyebrow raised and her lips curled into a smirk, feeling it poke her last night was one thing but seeing it was something else entirely. Nicole chewed on her lip, unable to help herself from inspecting him closely, in comparison to Devin he was huge. She reached her hand down and ran her thumb and pointer finger slowly along his shaft, He’s got to have at least two maybe three inches on Devin, she thought before moving her hand away.

Nicole shook her head, Jesus, now that is fucking impressive, Ken. Never thought you'd be hiding something like that down there...maybe sometime but not right now. She internally chastised while she slowly adjusted herself, sliding her leg away from him before slipping out of the bed completely. Kenny let out a little grunt but turned over, sleeping just as hard as before. Nicole grinned as a fleeting thought of Kenny's morning wood filled her mind though she pushed it away, heading to the bathroom to start her day.

She quickly relieved herself and brushed her teeth, since the bathroom was connected right to their room she held off on a shower, for now, not wanting to wake Kenny. Seeing as he had done almost everything for her yesterday, the least she could do was let him sleep in a little this morning. Nicole turned on the sink, and wet her face with a bit of warm water, the one thing that she was dying for, was a fresh cup of coffee, something to give her that jolt of energy.

Nicole quietly moved back into the bedroom and slipped on a pair of leggings over her panties before sneaking out of their room. She made her way down the stairs and into the kitchen only to stop as she caught a scent of weed in the air. Peeking in she saw Devin sitting at the kitchen table, halfway through a joint and blowing the smoke out an open window. Her eyes narrowed instantly, and she quickly diverted her gaze elsewhere. Devin lifted his head from the table and let out a little smile, “Hey Nikki.” He said as she walked past him, “Wake and bake?” Devin offered while extending the joint to her,

"I'm fine," Nikki curtly replied as she opened the cabinets until she found herself a coffee mug,

"All good," Devin easily replied, "I made a pot of coffee already, take what you'd like,"

Nicole stopped for a moment, taking in a slow breath. “Yeah, thanks.” She replied dryly walking over to the counter to grab a coffee mug, "Were you expecting me?" The redhead added on with a quick glance over her shoulder,

"You are a creature of habit Nikki, every morning is the same coffee and a toke. Guess you're ditching the toke now, huh?" Devin replied in a light friendly tone though he only heard a soft scoff from Nicole in response. As she picked up the pot and started to pour her cup, Devin slowly got from his seat and walked up behind her, “Listen, Nikki, do you want to talk this over? I don’t know how all this happened but I really am sorry that it did.”

Nicole bit on her tongue, trying to hold back from shouting, swallowing down her anger she quietly said, “Yeah, I bet you are.”

Devin narrowed his eyes at this comment and took another step towards her, “Nicole I’m being serious here. I don't know what you're talking about when it comes to me and some other girl. I thought things were going great for us but suddenly you kicked me to the curb and are burning shit I gave you years ago. What happened?”

"Oh my fucking god, you are kidding me, right? Ask anyone, the video of you and some bitch at Gwen's party might as well be fucking viral! While I'm sitting outside two rooms away you're sticking your fucking dick into some fucking slut like it was nothing!"

"I don't remember that!" Devin exclaimed in his own defense, "But if that happened it was an accident. Can't we just talk this over and put it behind us? It's not like you haven't fucked a guy behind my back before,"

Nicole’s eyes flared up and she quickly spun around to face him, "Oh you dick! I never fucked anyone once we started dating, all that time when we were both just hooking up doesn't count as us dating! You were fucking whoever you wanted and so was I, but that all fucking changed that night we sat down and made it official!" Nicole shot back before letting out another scoff, "Or at least it fucking changed for me,"

"Okay, I get it, I fucked up but come on, I was drunk. We all make stupid mistakes, can't this just be one of those times?" Devin lightly begged back,

“You know what’s the worst part? You are just expecting me to shrug this off because you were drunk, but you haven’t even apologized to me!” Nicole bitterly retorted,

“What are you talking about?!” Devin exclaimed as he sat his coffee on the counter and crossed his arms,

“You’ve only ever said you were sorry that it happened, never that you were sorry to me! You are a serious piece of shit!” Nicole spat out,

“Nicole! I am sorry!” Devin shouted while tossing his hands up, “But I don’t see how you aren’t getting this was a mistake! I got drunk and fucked up, yes, but I didn’t do anything last night or any other night! One mistake isn't a reason to end this, that's just fucking stupid!” He said, his voice coming off rougher than he wanted and less pleading.

Nicole slowly clenched her fists as Devin spoke, each word angering her more. Finally, she took a step towards him so they were only inches away from one another, “Let me put it to you this way. We are so fucking done, so you can go ahead and fuck whoever the fuck you please.”

Nicole then stepped away from him, picking up her cup of coffee, before heading towards the door. As she reached the exit she heard Devin mutter out, “Fine, I'll wait it out like always. Guess Kenny's gonna have a hell of a night,”

Nicole froze in place, her eye almost twitching at this point, “Excuse me?” She asked turning around slowly,

“What? After yesterday it’s pretty easy to see you already found your rebound. It's always the fucking same with you, you get freaked out with commitment, invent a reason to be pissed off, and then go fuck the nearest guy,” Devin replied coldly while she walked towards him,

Nicole scoffed at him, “First, it's none of your fucking business what I do anymore, second, don't fucking talk about me and Kenny like you know something because you don't, and third, I didn't "invent" a fucking reason to be pissed off, you cheated on me! ”

Devin let out a sneer “Uh-huh, sure, that's right, it's only because I'm an asshole, not because you can't give any real relationship a chance. But I'm not worried, give it two or three days of fucking Clark and you'll be back at my door like fucking always, only this time I won't --” Devin shot back only for Nicole's hand to fly out in a flash, sharply slapping him across the face stopping him dead,

Devin stumbled back just a bit, clearly out of surprise, “I committed to you, I was fucking happy. For the first time in my life, I thought I found someone who understood me and I could be with. Don't you dare try and tell me this is my fault, and you leave Kenny the fuck out of this? That guy has done nothing but fucking support me and took care of the pile of shit you left me,” Devin slowly ran his hand over his cheek, “But maybe, just maybe, all of this was a good thing because now I see what a piece of shit you really are!” Nicole turned around, shaking her head, “Don’t talk to me the rest of the trip, and the day I end up back at your bedroom door will be the day hell freezes over,”

Nicole stormed out of the room, the anger still flowing through her veins like a poison. She quickly reached her and Kenny’s room and opened the door. She let out an exasperated shout and slammed the door, releasing some of her pent-up anger. However, this caused Kenny to shoot awake, she heard him grunting in confusion as he looked around the room in confusion. Slowly turning towards him Nicole let out a small embarrassed smile. “Hi…”

“What happened?” Kenny asked as he rubbed his eyes with his right hand.
