Diving in Deep (A Bay State University Novel Book 2) Read online

  “I found this great coffee shop a few blocks off campus and I wondered if you wanted to grab a coffee later?”

  “Sure. Any hot guys work there?”

  “I’ve only been there once and it was a girl at the counter, but here’s hoping,” she said, with a grin and her fingers crossed. “Tell Kayleigh she’s welcome to join us.”

  “Sure thing.”

  When practice was over, I mentioned coffee to Kayleigh. I was shocked when she agreed.

  “No plans with Major tonight?” I asked.

  “We’re not together all the time,” she said. “And besides, I need to make more friends remember.”

  I smiled at her. “Yeah, I remember.”

  We met Gabbi in the dorm lobby at 6:30. We decided to take my car to the coffee shop since we’d all just worked our butts off at practice.

  “It smells heavenly,” I said, when we walked in. “Dibs on any hot baristas.”

  Kayleigh just shook her head and Gabbi looked like she didn’t know what to say.

  “She’s serious,” Kayleigh told her. “Karma is the female version of a player. She loves a whole lotta man flesh.”

  Gabbi burst out laughing. “You two are great. I wish I had a close friend here.”

  “We were super lucky to get to come here together,” I said, meaning every word.

  I stepped up to the counter and looked into a pair of deep brown eyes.

  “What can I get for you?” he asked, with a really nice smile.

  I was about to open my mouth when Kayleigh interrupted me. “He means coffee Karma. Save the R-rated stuff for later.”

  “Party pooper,” I said, with a pout.

  “Yeah, I know,” she said, smiling.

  I was a good girl and ordered a sandwich and caramel latte, but I’d definitely be flirting with the gorgeous man in front of me later.

  After all three of us ordered, we found a table in the back. It turned out that Gabbi was a lot of fun. Kayleigh was happy to find out that they had a class together and I was happy she was making new friends.

  By the end of the evening, I had a date with the hot barista and the three of us decided to make this a weekly thing.

  “So, when is your date with Hot Barista Guy?” Kayleigh asked, when we got home.

  “He has Thursday night off, so he’s going to take me to dinner.”

  “Just be careful okay?” she said.

  “Always,” I told her. “But until then I think it’s time to get out my toy box.”

  “Karma, we’ve had this discussion. I do not need to know when you’re going to do that.”

  “I know, but it’s so much fun watching your face. You’d think with all the sex you and Major are having you’d lighten up a little.”

  “I’m working on it.”

  “I know you are my cute and crazy girl.”

  “You’re so strange,” she said, with a smile.

  “But you love me anyway.”

  “You know I do. Do you need in the bathroom? I’m thinking a hot bubble bath sounds awesome right now,” Kayleigh said.

  “It’s all yours. See you in the morning.”

  I went to my room and opened the drawer of my nightstand. It was full of sex toys. It had been almost a week since I’d had sex and I needed to relieve a little tension. I pulled out my favorite one and let my imagination take over.

  “Take that asshole,” I said to Major.

  “You’re going down,” he said back.

  “No, I’m going to beat both your sorry asses,” Zach said.

  “Beat this bitches,” Chad said, as he caused an explosion that killed all three of us.

  Zach, Major and I threw our controllers down while Chad got up and took a bow, claiming he was the grand champion.

  “This sucks,” I said.

  “You’re just a sore loser,” Chad said.

  “No, I’m just bored,” I complained.

  “We need to get you laid,” Zach said.

  “Probably,” I admitted.

  “Let’s go out,” Chad suggested.

  “Where? It’s Tuesday night.”

  “I know a place,” Major said. “It’s about twenty minutes from campus. Loud music and hot girls.”

  “Is that the place you fucked that girl against the wall a few months ago?” I asked.

  “Yeah,” Major grinned.

  “I’m in,” Zach said.

  “Me, too,” Chad said, with a grin.

  “How about you?” I asked Major.

  “Not tonight. I promised Kayleigh that next time I go there I’d take her.”

  “Call her and ask the girls to come,” Chad said.

  “No,” I said, just a little too loudly. “I mean, they have practice at 6am and we can’t mess with their schedule like that.”

  “So, let’s do it Saturday night,” Major suggested.

  “Whatever,” I said. “That doesn’t help me find pussy tonight.”

  “Hang on, I’ll be right back,” Chad said and ran out the door. He was back a few minutes later. “Here,” he said, throwing a DVD at me, “maybe that will help.”

  I read the title, Big Natural Tits. I threw it back at him. “I have a phone if I want to watch porn you dick.” All three of them laughed at me. “Fuck you assholes.” But I ended up laughing with them.

  We all picked up our controllers and spent the next couple of hours trying to kick each other’s asses.

  ****

  By Friday afternoon, I was glad I was done with classes for the week. I was even more irritable than I had been on Tuesday. This was the longest dry spell of my life and I was starting to get frustrated. I was so busy feeling sorry for myself, that I wasn’t watching where I was going and ran right into someone. I looked down and saw the cute blonde I’d just knocked over.

  “Fuck, I’m sorry,” I said to her as I helped her up. “That was all my fault.”

  “It’s okay,” she said.

  “No, it’s not. Let me make it up to you,” I told her.

  “Care to buy me a coffee?” she said flirtatiously.

  “Sure. Do you have time right now?”

  “I do. My name is Sandra.”

  “Nice to meet you, Sandra. I’m Bodie.”

  She gave me that smile that most women gave me. Maybe she was the answer to my dry spell.

  We went to the closest coffee shop and I ordered what she wanted. She talked while she sipped on her latte. To be honest, I wasn’t really listening to her. I was concentrating on her tits and the places her hands kept touching my arm. I took that as a good sign.

  “Want to get out of here?” I asked, before she was even done her coffee.

  “Yes,” she said, just a little too quickly.

  “My place or yours?” I whispered in her ear.

  “Yours, I have three roommates.”

  I practically dragged her out of the coffee shop and to my dorm. I was really glad we weren’t that far from it. The second I closed my bedroom door; I was on her. She seemed just as eager as I was. A minute later, we were both naked and I had a condom on. I sunk into her warm, wet heat and closed my eyes.

  “Holy fuck you feel good,” I said, and started thrusting in and out of her.

  I opened my eyes and saw her playing with her tits. That was a weakness of mine and if I watched her do that much longer, I wasn’t going to last. I pulled out and flipped her on her stomach. She stuck her ass in the air, and I went right back to fucking her.

  “Touch yourself,” I breathed out. She started making little noises and I knew she was close.

  Then she started making some high-pitched screeching noise and I felt her clench around my dick. I thrust into her a few more times and finally came. She collapsed on the bed and I got rid of the condom.

  Sadly, as soon as she started talking, I was finished with her. Sure, it was good to have gotten laid, but that noise she made when she came was annoying as hell.

  “It’s time for you to
go,” I said, throwing on a pair of gym shorts.

  “What?”

  “You heard me. That was fun, but that’s all it was going to be.”

  “You’re an asshole,” she said, trying to get dressed and struggling with her bra.

  “I know,” I said, and left the room. I figured she’d have more luck putting her clothes back on if I wasn’t there.

  A few minutes later, I watched her walk out of the dorm and slam the door.

  I really was an asshole, but at least I was aware of it.

  Chapter 5

  Karma

  The date with Waiter Guy was a bust. I thought he would be fun, but all he did was talk about himself. I wasn’t into that. I actually found him so annoying, that we didn’t even have sex. But it was Friday night, and we were off to a party that the boys had heard about.

  “You look hot,” Kayleigh said, when I walked out of my bedroom. “I love the way that blue compliments your hair.

  “Thanks,” I said with a smile.

  I was wearing my favorite skin-tight mini dress. I’d bought it because it was the same color as my eyes, and luckily, went with my hair. Being a natural redhead, it was sometimes hard to find the right color to wear.

  I slipped on my strappy heels and I was ready to go.

  “Are we waiting for Major?” I asked her.

  “I told him we’d meet him in the lobby.”

  “Okay. You look great by the way,” I told her.

  “Thanks,” she said, with a smile.

  At the beginning of the year, I had to drag her to a party and now she went almost every time I asked her to. I was really proud of her.

  We met Major in the lobby and went to the parking lot. Kayleigh and I got in and Major started the truck.

  “Where are the boys?” I asked.

  “They’re going to meet us there,” he told me.

  It was a short drive to the party, and I heard the music coming from the house even before we got out of the truck. I walked up to the house grinning.

  “Be careful,” Kayleigh told me, before we went in. “Let me know if you’re not coming home tonight.”

  “I will.” I smiled at her mom-like ways.

  I walked into the party like I owned the place. The music was loud, and the place was packed. I did a quick tour of the room and saw a few guys I’d like to get to know better. I picked one and walked right up to him.

  “Hi,” I said. “Are you single?”

  I always got right to the point. I wanted nothing to do with a guy that was already taken.

  He smiled at me. “Hi yourself,” he said. “Yes I am. What’s your name, beautiful?”

  “Karma. What’s yours?”

  “Steve.”

  “Well, Steve, wanna dance?” I said, and started moving my hips to the music.

  “Sure,” he said, so I took his hand and led him to the makeshift dance floor.

  A few songs later I was thirsty, so I went to find some water. I wasn’t drinking tonight, and it would be a long time before I did again. Steve followed me and helped me find the kitchen. Turned out this was his frat house, so he was really helpful. Some guy started talking to him so I left to see who else I could find to dance with.

  Three guys and a bunch of songs later, I needed another water. I was on my way back across the room when someone grabbed my arm. I almost punched them until I saw it was Bodie.

  “Fuck Bodie, you’re lucky you’re still standing,” I told him.

  “What are you talking about?” he asked.

  “You shouldn’t go around grabbing women’s arms. You almost got throat punched.”

  He started laughing. “I remember something similar happening to Major last year. You girls sure took self-defence seriously.”

  “If we didn’t Kayleigh’s grandma would have tanned our hides,” I told him.

  “I could see that.”

  “So, what did you want anyway?” I asked him.

  “Wondering if you wanted to dance?”

  “Really?”

  “Yes really.”

  “I thought you were avoiding me,” I said.

  “Maybe I was, a little, but now I’m not.”

  “Men,” I mumbled to myself. “Sure, Bodie, let’s dance.”

  I wasn’t sure what he was up to, but I loved to figure things out, and right now Bodie was just another puzzle for me to solve. That, and he was ridiculously hot. I rubbed my body against his in time with the music. If he wanted to dance, I was going to show him everything I had.

  ****

  Bodie

  I must be a sucker for punishment. I should be staying as far away from Karma as I could, not asking her to dance. But I couldn’t back out now or she’d know something was up. She may come across as ditzy sometimes, but I knew it was an act. She was smart or wouldn’t be here on a scholarship, sports related or not.

  The feel of her body against mine was almost too good. I kept flashing back to the night we spent together, and it was making my dick twitch. She turned around and started grinding her ass against my crotch and I couldn’t hide my reaction to her.

  When she turned around again, the smug smile on her face told me she was fully aware of the effect she was having on me. I tried to put some distance between us, but she wouldn’t let me. When the song was over, she took my hand and dragged me off the dance floor and then outside.

  “Where’s your car?” she asked me.

  “Do you need me to take you home?”

  “No. Where’s your car?” she repeated.

  Karma was going to drive me crazy. “Over there,” I said, pointing to the end of the block.”

  “Okay, let’s go.”

  She started walking and I followed her. I had no idea what she wanted. I unlocked it when we got there and to my surprise she got in the back.

  “Get in,” she said, poking her head out the door.

  I started to go around to the driver’s side when she yelled, “No, back here.”

  I rolled my eyes, but got in the back with her.

  “What the fuck, Karma,” I yelled, when she reached for my jeans and started to unbutton them.

  “I noticed it was a little tight in there and I thought I could help,” she said smiling.

  “Are you fucking crazy?” I said, trying to shoo her hands away.

  “No,” she said laughing. “You should see the look on your face. You look like a virgin on prom night.”

  “I do not,” I protested. “You just took me by surprise. What are you even doing anyway?”

  “I was trying to help a friend out, but it looks like that’s not necessary now,” she said, with a grin.

  “Whatever,” I mumbled. “You’re something else, you know that, right?”

  “I know. Some people can’t handle me. I thought you could.”

  Karma grinned and got out of the car. I watched her walk back to the party. Actually, I was watching her ass sway back and forth in the tight dress she had on. A minute later, I was out of the car and back at the party.

  I tried not to notice her, but she was hard not to look at. Every single guy in the place watched her as she walked past them. She had a commanding personality and was gorgeous. I didn’t blame anyone for noticing her.

  “Whatcha doing?” Chad said, from beside me.

  “You scared the shit outta me, man,” I told him.

  He chuckled. “So, I repeat, what are you doing? I thought you’d have your dick buried in some hot chick by now.”

  “I’m trying to figure out Karma,” I said, without thinking.

  “Huh? Karma? What?”

  “I mean, Kayleigh asked me to keep an eye on her tonight, so I was trying to figure out what she was up to,” I lied.

  “Oh yeah, that makes sense. From what I understand, she jumps from guy to guy like we do women.”

  I wanted to get mad at him for saying that, but I guess it was the truth. What Karma said to me the other night at dinner came back to me, double standard. She was right. P
eople would call her a slut for having sex with so many different guys but high five her if she was a man.

  “Yeah,” was all I said back to him.

  “Well, I’m going to find me some pussy for the night. See ya.”

  He slapped me on the back and left.

  As the night wore on, a few women tried to get my attention, but I was too busy watching Karma. She danced with guy after guy but didn’t really seem that into any of them. I was actually relieved when I saw her leaving with Kayleigh and Major. Then I was kicking myself for thinking that. What Karma did wasn’t any of my business and I needed to remember that.

  Chapter 6

  Karma

  Saturday morning’s practice was brutal. We had a meet next weekend and Coach Everett was making sure we would win it. After four hours, I was so ready to leave the pool. Kayleigh looked the same when I saw her in the locker room.

  “I knew I shouldn’t have stayed out so late last night,” she said, with a yawn. “Greenfield College must be really tough this year for the coaches to be pushing us so hard.”

  “No shit. I thought Coach Everett was going to have a stroke at the way we were all “underperforming” today,” I said using air quotes.

  Kayleigh giggled at me and I had to smile back.

  “Hey ladies,” Gabbi said, when she walked in the locker room. “I’m wiped, how about you two?”

  “We’re both ready for a nap I think,” I told her, and Kayleigh agreed.

  “Me, too,” Gabbi said with a smile.

  “Hey, are you busy tonight?” I asked, remembering our plans for later.

  “No. Did you want to do a girl’s night?”

  “Not a girl’s night but definitely a night out. The boys are taking us to a dance club,” I told her. “You should come with us.”

  “Sounds like fun. I’d love to go. When and where?”

  “Meet us in the dorm lobby at 9:00.”

  “Great. It’s been a while since I’ve been dancing. Do I need a fake ID?” she asked.

  “No. The club is 18+. You only need an ID to buy a drink.”

  “Cool. See you later.”

  Kayleigh and I left the swim complex and headed to the cafeteria closest to our dorm. We were both starving. We got our food to go and headed back to the dorm. As predicted, we both fell asleep after we finished eating.
