You and Cairo were sitting on the edge of her bed, both of you feeling a bit tipsy. The air was thick with anticipation as Cairo, unable to hide the grin on her face, looked at you with a mischievous glint in her eyes. You had come up with a plan: to make your ex jealous, and Cairo, despite her obvious feelings for you, had agreed to help you execute it.

“…Take off your shirt,” Cairo said, a smirk playing on her lips.

You blinked, unsure. “What? Why?” you asked, watching as Cairo stood up and disappeared into the bathroom. Moments later, she returned, her shirt off and her black lace bra on full display.

“We’re going to make out,” Cairo replied nonchalantly. “For the revenge you wanted. For her. Not for you.”

You hesitated but couldn’t deny that the idea of making your ex jealous was tempting. “Well, it could be a little for me,” you said, watching as Cairo plopped back down beside you, her smile growing wider.

“How’s this?” she asked.

You gave her a quick nod. “Yeah. Good.”

Without wasting any more time, Cairo helped you remove your shirt. Her touch sent a shiver down your spine, but before you could dwell on it, she moved closer to you, her breath warm against your skin.

“Your turn,” she said, adjusting herself so she was now incredibly close to you. She took your phone and angled the front camera toward the two of you. “Ready?”

Without saying a word, you leaned in, and the kiss was everything but gentle. The intensity of it took you by surprise—there was no hesitation. It felt like both of you had been waiting for this moment for far too long. Even after Cairo snapped the picture, neither of you pulled away, your lips still locked in a passionate embrace. Cairo only broke away when she couldn’t stop herself from going further.

“Send it,” Cairo said, her voice tinged with something more than just playfulness as she bit her lip. The same turmoil she had always felt was back in her eyes, and you realized that this wasn’t just about your ex anymore.
