was it him? was everything he was worried about true? was he too old? did you suddenly find him unattractive? did it bother you that he was your attending? were you unsatisfied with him? that last one was the most unlikely, but maybe your please for more last night were from pity instead of the need they seemed to be laced with.

you were leaving, or trying to (and failing) to one night stand him. you were still wearing his old college shirt, which was ironic given how fast you were trying to get ready and go. he rests against the door frame that leads into the front room, watching you struggle with your heels from last night.

“you need a ride back to your place?” he rumbles from his position in the doorway.
