Pissed

You try to not ruin Matt morning so you try to keep the anger out of your voice when you say "We need to talk right now, Nicole!'

Yeah, you can tell from the reaction of your friends that you failed.

Getting some privacy in another room you turn to Nicole you unload your questions.

"Was this whole thing a setup between you and Sarah? Or are more people laughing at me? Was Tom in on it too?"

"You aren't making any sense, John. No one is laughing at you!"

"I figured out that you were just giving me a performance earlier, Nicole. You prepared for sex, but you used none of that with Tom.

I'm supposed to believe that you were so overcome with lust that you let that useless asshole take your virginity but not enough to apply any skills? Bullshit! You were playing a part!"

"There was no conspiracy, John. I had no plans to do it with Tom, but when you were so turned on by that thing with Miranda I thought it was worth a shot."

You hadn't realized it had been that obvious.

"Then explain it to me!"

"John, can you imagine for one second how much it sucked to be in love with you and watch you date other women? Comforting you when you inevitably broke up? I resented it, John, I was beginning to resent you!

So yeah, I took the oppurtunity to get you to admit to yourself that you want me. But that wasn't what I wanted to happen, John, I wanted you to stop it. I wanted you to stop it because you wanted to be my first," she says crying.

How can you respond to this? You were manipulated by Nicole. She was so **** that she whored herself out to get your attention. Your friendship with Nicole had been dying and you never noticed.

You're angry with her, you're angry with Tom, you are angry with yourself.

The question is what do you do about it?
