Cheated On? I Upgraded to His Friend

Wanting to give my boyfriend, Justin Letterman, a surprise on Valentine's Day, I throw myself at him when he enters the room. I push him against the door and kiss him passionately.

It isn't easy to transfer the spiked wine from my mouth into his, but his reaction is cold and indifferent. He says nothing as he pushes me aside to turn on the light.

"Don't you want my first time anymore, darling?" I ask bashfully as I grab his hand.

His breathing turns heavy in an instant.

Smiling, I slip my hand under his shirt, but I'm distracted when I hear the front door creak open.

"Babe," Justin coos in a deep and hoarse voice.

"Why are you in such a hurry?" my best friend, Natalie Quinn, asks coyly.

The wanton noises of kissing and moaning echo into the room.

Before I can snap back to my senses, I'm yanked into a closet.

Am I the one getting caught, or am I the one doing the catching?

I could feel the top of my head tingling.

The closet was small and cramped. The two of us were pressed close to each other, and we were breathing rapidly.

However, the breathing of the two people outside the closet was far more labored than ours.

"You're such a bad man. Don't you feel sorry for Anne?" Natalie Quinn asked coquettishly.

"I could ask you the same question," Justin Letterman replied while suppressing his moans. "Besides, I only pursued her to catch your attention."

I couldn't believe what I was hearing. Not only were both Natalie and Justin betraying me, but they had planned to from the very start.

Bewildered, I raised my head, only to knock into the man's chin. I clasped my hands together and raised them, wanting to apologize, but I accidentally brushed my fingers against his lower body.

I was shocked by what I felt until I remembered that I had fed him the spiked wine.

I could feel my body burning as well. Wanting to put some distance between myself and the man, I pressed myself against the closet and shimmied away, but I was held in place a few seconds later.

Heated breaths fanned across the top of my head. A soft but mellifluous masculine voice whispered next to my ear, "Stop moving."

He stopped moving after saying his piece, putting as much distance as he could between us and making it clear that he wasn't going to do anything to me.

My face was red when I snuck a glance at the man. The darkness in the closet only allowed me to see how defined his features were, but I couldn't shake the feeling that I had heard his voice before. Perhaps he was one of Justin's friends?

The sounds of kissing and rustling clothes coming from outside paused for a moment before a wanton noise echoed into the closet.

"Are you still going to ask Anne to drop by later?" Natalie asked between moans. "Our relationship has already progressed to this stage. Aren't you going to break up with her soon?"

I peeked through the gap and saw Natalie's legs wrapped around Justin's waist.

Justin was leaving marks on her neck. His eyes were filled with desire when he looked up.

"It's your fault for having to leave later. Although Anne is boring and old-fashioned, she treats me like I'm her entire world. It's pretty fun, so I'm going to keep stringing her along for now."

Natalie wrapped her arms around his neck with a mocking smile. "Anne's a little stupid, but she got really unlucky to have a bastard like you for her first love."

Justin snickered before kissing Natalie deeply. "She should count her blessings for being able to date me when she looks like that."

"You're not wrong. It's not easy for a desperate woman like her to find a man."

Their voices were colored with disdain. They exchanged glances before giggling with one another.

My body felt like it was on fire, but my heart felt frozen when I heard them making fun of me without any care in the world. I genuinely treated them like they were the most precious people in my world, only for them to betray and insult me behind my back.

"It shouldn't be long now," Justin said. "She might give herself to me today. I'll find a reason to break up with her once I take her virginity."

"Asshole!" Natalie exclaimed while laughing. She thumped her fist against his chest.

Justin bit her earlobe lightly, asking, "What about you? When are you going to make me official?"

Natalie giggled and closed her eyes. "We can talk about this after you sleep with Anne."

Justin paused before leaning over her. "Shall we make a bet? I'll sleep with her before the month is over."

My throat felt so tight that it began to ache. My one wish was for Natalie to ignore him. The entire situation was awful. On top of that, there was a stranger next to me.
