Too Hard To Choose

Chapter Twelve - Time for new experiences?

Violet

Tyson and I were still at the café after finishing breakfast. We are enjoying a coffee now. It had been a good morning. Yes, there has been a little flirting, but not too much. It has been more conversation and laughing. It was nice. He does seem different to Arlo and Parker in some ways.

I noticed one thing during our time here: he kept checking out the waiter. I get it, though; he was handsome. However, this made me curious about his sexuality. Does he like men, too, or does he just appreciate good-looking ones?

“Tyson, can I ask you something?” I ask.

“Sure, beautiful. Anything.” he smiles.

“Do you like men too?”

“Yes. I am bisexual. I honestly thought I was straight right into my late teens, but I soon realised I am attracted to both. Does it bother you I like both?” he questions, slipping his arm around my shoulder.

“No, not at all. I was just curious,” I smiled. “Is he your type?”

“Good. You would be surprised with how many people it bothers. I wouldn’t call him my type. I don’t really have a type when it comes to men. It just depends on who steals my attention. He is a good-looking man, though.”

I nod, “Yes, he is.”

“I apologise for checking him out when I am here with you. It was rude of me,” he says softly.

“Tyson, you have nothing to be sorry about. You can do as you please. We are only having breakfast.” I smile.

He reaches in and strokes the hair away from my face. He flashes his beautiful smile at me, and his finger runs down to my cheek, caressing it with the pad of his thumb.

“I still like my idea of it being a date.” He smirks.

I giggle and shake my head, “I thought we agreed it wasn’t?”

“I take back what I said.” He chuckles.

I playfully roll my eyes at him, “You do, uh?”

Tyson nods, and his lips seem to be inching closer to mine. I lick my lips, and he mirrors my action. I wanted him to kiss me, but I shouldn’t want that, especially not after I spent last night with Arlo. It would be wrong of me, right?

“Tell me, Violet, if I closed the space between us, would you pull away?” he whispers.

I swallow hard, “Try and find out.”

Tyson smirked and closed the space between us. His lips fall on mine, and I moan softly the second I feel them. He groans and puts a little more pressure on my lips. I kiss back in the same manner. He runs his fingers into my hair, and I fist his tee. He is such a good kisser. Tyson pulls back after a minute, which is for the best because I forgot we were in a public place for a moment.

I open my eyes, and I am met with him staring at me, a sexy little smile on his lips. I blush and bite on my lip nervously.

“You are cute when you blush.” He teases.

“Stop,” I whine.

Tyson laughs loudly, “No.”

I cross my arms over my chest and pout at him. Tyson reaches in and pecks my lips before he sits back up straight. He places his hand on my thigh and takes a sip of his coffee. I do the same. I don’t know what is going on with me and my damn hormones.

Tyson massages my thigh, “Do you have plans for the rest of the day?”

I whimper as heat rises on my skin and straight between my thighs, “I-I-I don’t have anything planned.”

“Me neither. I think we should spend the day together,” he suggests.

I raise my brow at him, “Doing what?”

“Relax, beautiful, I don’t mean what you think I do. I know you are still trying to process what happened with Arlo and all the feelings you have been having in the last twenty-four hours.” he smiles and squeezes my thigh.

“Yes, it is a lot for me because I am not used to it,” I reply honestly.

“I am sure it is all a little overwhelming, especially after what you have been through recently. It will get better, I promise. We will help make it better.” He says, a slight hint of a smirk on his lips when he says the last part.

“The three of you really don’t have an issue being with the same girl?”

He shakes his head, “No, we really don’t. Obviously, it will be different when the day comes when we are all ready to settle down, then I think sharing will be a problem.” He chuckles.

“Yes, I am sure.” I snicker.

“What are your thoughts on everything?”

“I really don’t know. I haven’t been in a situation before like this before.”

“I was right, wasn’t I? You want all three of us?” he asks.

I could lie to him, but what would be the point? I draw in a breath, “Yes. I don’t know what to think about it. How can one person want three different guys at the same time?”

“It happens more frequently than you probably realise. Violet, it isn’t anything to be weirded out or ashamed of.” He smiles and links his fingers with mine.

“It is just a lot, and I don’t know how to handle it. I am used to being with one person for a long period of time. I don’t have much experience when it comes to dating and casual sex.” I shrug.

“You will work it all, beautiful. Maybe now is the right time for you to start experiencing new things.”

“Maybe…”

Tyson smiles and leans in, kissing me softly, “I will take care of the bill, and we can head out.”

“Okay. Thank you.”

I am glad he is ending the conversation here because I am unsure what else to say. I gather my things as he pays and wait for him to come back.

“Come on, gorgeous.” he encourages, offering his hand.

I take it, and we head out. He keeps a hold of my hand.

“What would you like to do?” he asks.

“Hmm, I am not sure. It is a beautiful day. Maybe a walk to the park?”

I didn’t really want to do much else. A walk would be enough.

“Yes, we can do that.”

I get lost in my head as we walk. I can’t believe everything that has happened in the last twenty-four hours, not even twenty-four hours. Could I be that girl? The one who can be with three guys? Not all at once, but at the same time? I don’t know, but I guess I will find out. Maybe Tyson is right; it is time for me to experience new things. What has falling in love and being with the one person gotten me? Nothing but pain and heartache. Perhaps it will be the perfect way to help me heal from it all.
