I turn toward the direction of the sound. “Are you expecting someone?”
“Fuck,” he groans, palms pressed to his eyes. “I forgot I told Sid I’d go on a run with him this morning.”
My eyes go wide. “Sidney is here?”
Cameron sits up and scrubs a hand down his face. “I’ll get rid of him.”
He quickly stands up and pulls on a pair of athletic shorts before dashing out of the bedroom.
Our teammate is here after we hooked up.
A teammate who knows that was very muchnotallowed to happen.
Fuck.

Just started secretly dating Zhuri after having sex with her last night, only for me to forget Sid was going to be dropping by.
Surely nothing can go wrong.
I take a deep breath to steady myself, trying to seem composed, before I swing my front door open. “Hey, Sid.”
“Hey,” he replies, eyeing me curiously. “Running shirtless today?”
Shit.I forgot to put a shirt on.
“No, I just, uh… woke up when you knocked. Ran down here to grab the door.”
“You… just woke up?”
“Yeah,” I laugh uneasily. “Slept well last night. Guess I needed it.”
Not a lie. I did need good sleep, and apparently, I can find that by having my naked girlfriend in my bed.
Sidney steps by me and into the living room.
Well, I failed at getting rid of him already.
Fuck.
Z is literally still in my room.
I shut the door behind him. “I’ll, uh, throw on a shirt, and we can go.” I don’t want to leave Zhuri, but I need to make sure we don’t get caught.
“Sounds good.” He looks over toward my balcony now. “Did you leave your door open during the storm? There’s a huge puddle of water on the floor.”
No, that’s from when Zhuri and I were frantically clawing at each other before we made it to the bedroom.
“I got caught in the rain when I was putting the tables away,” I shrug. “Didn’t realize I tracked it in with me.”
“I’ll grab a towel then. I can clean it up while you get ready.”
“No, you don’t have to do that,” I say nervously.
