Love Drunk Sims 4 Style: Chapter Twelve

Chapter Twelve: Starting Again...Again!

"You ready?" Alex grabbed Lainie from behind, she was in one of her little daydreams, thinking about Dexter Maloney and seeing him again.
"I am." A long sigh escaped her lungs as she tried not to wriggle away from his grip. It just felt wrong, but if she closed her eyes and pictured a certain blue eyed pretty boy...

...it would make her smile! "It's been an amazing trip huh? All alone, nobody bothering us, getting to know each other again!" He winked and planted a quick kiss on her cheek. Well that image didn't last long!

"I don't know about you..." He mumbled into her shoulder, it tickled, "...but I almost don't wanna go back!" Finally they agreed on something. Despite missing Dexter and wanting desperately to see his face again, hear his voice and feel his touch...Lainie was apprehensive. He'd texted her saying he wanted her to come home, was he ready to forgive her?

As she went through the motions with Alex, she plastered on her best smile as he pawed at her, hoping so very much that she and Dexter could really start again this time. But how many chances did it take? Maybe it wasn't to be, maybe they were better off out of each other's lives, maybe Alex was the better bet!


Lainie managed to sneak into the house undetected, well almost, Roxy came bounding into her room shouting "HEEEEEEYYYYYY!" at the top of her voice and pulling her in for a hug. "I missed you!"
"I missed you too Roxanne, it's weird to be back. Feels like a whole year not a week!"


"Well you're back now and that's all that matters!" Lainie only just realised just how much she did miss her best friend.
"How's Dexy?" Yeah just drop it in there. Roxy smirked and nodded towards the opening door,
"Why don't you ask him?" Oh em gee!


Someone was standing behind her and by Roxy's evil cackle, it was definitely Dexter! "Hey freckles, welcome home!" Oh my God, it was him, how she had missed that beautiful voice.
"Well three's a crowd!" Roxy winked.


"I'll leave you two to catch up!" Lainie began to panic and whispered,
"No that's not necessary..."
"Oh Maloney? You missed her didn't you?" Roxy's smirk grew even bigger as Lainie could hear Dexter mumbling awkwardly.


Heading for the door she gave Lainie one last wink and nod, "You two crazy kids have fun now!" I'm going to kill her, this was excruciating! What if he wanted to yell at her? Give her what for?


They both just stood there, in silence, as the door closed quietly. "So..." Dexter broke it, "...how was Sulani?"
"Er, great! Yeah, beautiful. How was...your...um...life?" Smooth girl, make it even more cringe worthy why don't you?


"You look...good!" Aww he was blushing! Focus!
"Thanks, so do you. How's the band?"
"Close to a record deal, we met a guy at one of our gigs the other night who works for Gryffin Records, he's interested!"
"Oh wow Dexy I'm so happy for you, I told you it would happen didn't I!" He smiled bashfully.
"Yeah, you did!"


"Freckles..." He looked at her for what felt like a very long time, studying her face, "...I missed you!"
"I missed you too Dexy, and I'm sorry..." Before she could finish what she was saying she was suddenly in the arms of Dexter William Maloney.


"Dexy..."
"Shhh, it's okay, you don't need to say anything!" She was getting a lot of hugs lately, only this one was by far the best.


"Dexy I have to, I have to tell you how sorry I am..."
"No you really don't, let's start again for real this time! Just forget everything else, except..."


Lainie pulled back and looked into his eyes, waiting for him to finish what he was saying. He just stared at her, it was bliss! "Except what Dexy?" Except the sexy talk? She could never forget that, what he said he wanted to do to her. She never wanted to ever forget that!
"It was crappy without you around here, I don't wanna feel like that again! I want..." What? This is torture!


"You're so pretty, were you always this pretty?" Lainie's knees buckled and she struggled to remain standing.
"Dexy, what's happening?"
"I've been informed that I didn't give you a chance to explain so...should we...talk?" No we should totally get naked! Being this close to him made her feel all sorts of things that friends should not feel, did he know what he was doing to her?
"Talk?" Mood killer! She tried to walk away but he grabbed hold of her...


...this was a whole different kind of talking! They were using their mouths, yes, but not for conversation! So close, their lips were millimeters away and then...


"Freckles?" Damn, just a silly daydream...again!
"Yes!" She nodded, how did she get here? Sitting on the bed? Oh that was right, he wanted her to explain, and then he changed his mind and began rambling. That's when she focused on him using his lips in a different way.
"Did you even hear what I said?" Her nodding began to slow and she looked unsure.
"Yyyyyes?"


"Okay no, I...sorry Dexy what were you saying?"
"I asked if you could forgive me. But...I'll understand if you hate me because I was a dick...and I'm sorry! I meant what I said though, it was really crappy with you not around!"
"It was kinda crappy not being around."
"Really? It was crappy in Sulani?" He gave her his famous eyebrow.


"No, Sulani was great, I just missed...my people!" A small smile formed on Dexter's perfect lips.
"So you're staying then? Here?"
"Of course I am, why wouldn't I be?" He shrugged and now his face looked sad.
"Oh nothin', I just thought maybe you and Alex would get a place together or...I'm glad you're staying here!"


Get a place? With Alex??? Nope, nope and hell nope! "You're stuck with me!" She half smiled and let out a little nervous giggle.
"Best news I've had all week! Anyway I've gotta go, got an interview at the gallery downtown, they might sell my stuff so..." So we're not going to address the elephant in the room? We're brushing CookieRok under the carpet?


"Well wish me luck!" When he stood up to leave, she wanted to cry.
"Oh you don't need it but good luck anyway, you're going to bowl that gallery owner over with your talent!"
"Thanks!"


He stopped by the door and said, "I really did miss you freckles, and I'm so glad you're home!" A lump formed in her throat, but she gulped it down and replied,
"Glad to be home!" He waved a goodbye and was gone.


And now, rather than move on with Alex, she wanted Dexter Maloney even more!


"You really need to be more careful hunky drummer boy!"
"Why?"
"Because your dirty little secret, me, might get out. You've been slipping into my room a lot lately!" Erin loved seeing Ash, and living with him, but she was confused over his behaviour. He pretended to hardly know her in front of the others but he was never away from her when everyone else was off doing their own things.


Ash looked at her for a moment with a sad little pout, "Do you want me to leave?" Oh hell no! But Erin did have some self respect.
"I think you need to decide whether or not this relationship is going anywhere."
"It is, it will, just gimme time!" That old chestnut! Erin was starting to lose patience, and she didn't know how much longer this could go on.


Ash and Drew both received texts from Dex telling them he'd secured a place in the gallery to show his work. He'd asked them to come out and celebrate with him but they both turned him down, Ash because he was moping over Erin and Drew because he and Charlotte were going to go and visit her cats at the sanctuary. She'd insisted on housing them there out of the way.


They both felt guilty when Dex sent them a fuck you as a reply, telling them he would go and celebrate on his own. "God I hope he doesn't do anything or anyone stupid!" Ash sighed as Drew laughed.
"That was funny, cuz Selena is stupid..."
"Don't explain my jokes to me Mitchell, you totally ruin it, jeez!" Ash shook his head with a frown.


It was after midnight and Dexter had been out all day, Ash had been calling and texting him but only just got a reply as he paced the floor of his room. He said he was on his way home, so Ash went to bed so that his mind was clear in the morning, he had to give his little brother a serious talking to...again!


 It was late, Lainie was tired from travelling and the constant barrage of questions from her housemates about Sulani and whether Alex had proposed on the beach. She met the newest addition, Erin Daley, who happened to be that warrior girl from the Halloween party that Ash was quite taken with, funnily enough nobody else noticed it. She hadn't seen Dexter since that morning when they kind of talked it out. As all of those thoughts swam around her head, there was a feeble banging on her door.
"Freck-ulls!"


 It was Dexter, was he drunk? He sounded weird! "Freck...ullllls!" Definitely drunk!


 This felt just like all the other times he had knocked on her door, and she was afraid to answer. "Freckulls please? I n-need ta talk ta ya!" Stay quiet Evelyn he might go away.


 "Baby please!" He whined into the wooden door still tapping weakly on it, baby? "I reallyreallyreally need ta talk!"


 Lainie shuffled to the door and listened to him muttering away to himself, "Izzat you? Freckullls? Open the dooooooor!"


 Lainie gave herself a mental shake and threw the door open, he was leaning on it and almost fell into the room. "Oh, hhhhhheeeyyyyy gorjush!"
"Dexy you're drunk, maybe you should go to bed, it's very late!"
"Izzat an invertayshun?" He gave her a raised eyebrow and a heart melting smirk as his arm slipped off of the door frame and he bundled forward, taking her with him.


 "DEXY!" Lainie squealed in shock as she tried to keep her balance and make sure he didn't hurt himself in the process. Dexter kept on falling and mumbled,
"Turrrn offf yer roooom spinnurrr!!!"


 Lainie eventually managed to sit him down on the floor before either of them got hurt, and he started to whimper. "Dexy? Are you okay? You don't drink, what is this about?" It was true that as a rule he didn't really drink much at all, but lately his sorrows were taking a long time to drown!


 "Ohhhhhhh God freckulls! I sleeryoosly need ta tell you sumfing!"
"What Dexy?" She rubbed his arm to reassure him, but he began full on sobbing in front of her.


 "Baby please don't hhhhhate me? I did a terrrrrrabull fing!"
"Dexy I could never..." before she could finish he blurted out,
"I ffffucked Seleeeenaaaa!"


 "Ohhhhhh why did I doooo dat? Fuuuuuuuck!" He grabbed hold of her and wept into her shoulder. Lainie felt numb, he'd had sex with another woman while she was away. Not just any random woman either, his stalker, Selena McLean!


 As he held her tightly and cried about how sorry and disgusted he was, all she could do was sit there and feel...just numb. How could she scold him for it or feel betrayed by him when she and Alex had slept together a few times in Sulani. She would lie there and let him just do his thing, all the while she imagined he was the man who was squeezing her and breaking his heart on her shoulder right now.


  "Evuhlin! I was finkin' of you da whole time, sh-she means nuffing to me! You mean everyfing to me! I'm so sorreee!"
"Dexy it's okay, you're a grown man you can have sex with whoever you like..."
"No I can't!" He whined and squeezed her harder, "I can't have yooooo!"



Lainie could feel what little strength he had leaving him and got him up on his feet, "Come on, you need to sleep this off!"
"I n-need yooooo freckulls!"
"I'm here Dexy, let's just...have a lie down!"
"Ooooooh I like dat, will yoooo lie down wif me? Gimme a cuppla minutes and I will rrrock yoooor wurld!"

 Lainie sat him down on the bed as he started sobbing again, "I feel so baaaaad, I shudda kept ma dick to maself and jusht walked awayyyyy!"
"Dexy, we all make mistakes!" Boy do we, she was seeing someone who could never in a million years match up to the man who sat on her bed right now. "It'll all feel better in the morning, you'll see!"


 "Noooo, it won't! Shhhheeee finks we're gettin' married now, I fucked up Freckulls! So damn baaad! I just wanted ta feeeeel sumfing, but not wif Seleeenaaaa, wif yooooo!"
"Dexy, just lie down, please?" It would be so easy to just give in to him, to give in to her feelings and her urges. But she would not take advantage of him in this state, he was drunk and who knew how he would feel in the morning? He might regret it like he regretted Selena, she didn't want that!


 Lainie managed to coax Dexter to lie down, he closed his eyes but wouldn't let go of her hand. "Don't hate me baby!"
"Dexy I don't hate you..."
"Don't leave me again!"
"Dexy..."
"Let's make luv!" Oh pretty boy that would just be bliss, but Lainie wanted him to make love to her stone cold sober and completely willing and able! At the moment he was neither of those things!


Dexter drifted off as the grip on her hand loosened, she looked down at his beautiful face, it was tear stained but he was smiling. She gently eased her hand away as his breathing deepened. "Goodnight my love!" She whispered, just gazing at him for a long time.


Lainie could barely sleep, Dexter Maloney was out for the count on her bed, his scent was going to be on her covers even after he would leave in the morning, and she was not washing them!


He was beautiful! She could just stare at him all night, which was probably going to happen since she was wide awake. He opened his eyes for a moment lazily, then mumbled "Okay, I'm ready. Let's make love!" Lainie bit her lip to stop the laugh that threatened to erupt from her throat as he began to snore again.


She had no idea when she finally went to sleep, or how she ended up with Dexter's arm round her, protecting her and keeping her warm. All she knew was that it felt so much more satisfying than sex with Alex, and all Dexter was doing was holding her.


Dexter could smell Lainie as he came to early that morning. Why could he smell Lainie? What colour were these bed sheets, pink?


"Uh-oh!" Taking in his surroundings, he realised he was in Lainie's room...on her bed...and his head felt like he'd gone ten rounds with Anthony Joshua!


"Okay, what the fuck did I do last night?" The main thing was that he and Lainie were both decent, on top of the covers and there was no sign of any sexual encounter. Not that he would mind, he just wanted to remember it...


...if he ever got together with his freckles he damn well wanted to remember every second of it, not have a drunken fumble that he had no recollection of. Her breathing was heavy, she was fast asleep, time to get the hell out before this became embarrassing.


"Love you freckles!" He whispered, as he snuck out of her room as quietly as he could, his head still pounding and his mouth as dry as the Sahara!


He headed back to his own room for a couple more hours rest and a painkiller. He had avoided talking about their CookieRok era for too long, it had to be resolved! She was with Alex, or was she? Dexter wished that all it took was one word from him and Alex would be history, he and Lainie could live happily ever after...


...but then there was Selena! Ugh, why did he do that? Why did he do her? What an idiot, he had been so well behaved since he returned home to Moonlight Falls from Bridgeport all those years ago. No more bad boy Dexter, he even lasted more than a couple of weeks with a girl, his longest relationship had been Rosalie...two whole years!


During high school Dexter was a good boy, he fell head over heels for Katie Reese, he asked her out when they were 15 and she said yes. They had even planned the future and were going to the Sixth Year Prom together when she dumped him out of the blue, she told him there was someone else and that she had heard he had cheated on her anyway, which was not true! Someone had lied! He always suspected Jeremy, he was always bad mouthing her but drooling over her at the same time. When he talked to Drew about it, he all but confirmed it by keeping silent and looking embarrassed. Dexter hadn't thought about Jeremy for a long time, not since Roxy joined the band and they went from strength to strength after her addition.


As he drifted off to sleep, having set his alarm for 8am, he dreamed of Katie. They were 15 again and he was so in love...well as in love as a horny teenage boy could be. Katie was beautiful, blonde hair and blue eyes...


...and legs that went on for miles! She was his first kiss, and her boobs were the first he'd ever touched, not to mention she was the first girl to ever touch his junk right by the window in the library where anyone could see. She was special to him, she was his sexual awakening for two whole years and although she jilted him at the Prom, he remembered her fondly. Break times in empty classrooms, doing what teens do...


...she smelled heavenly, like strawberry shortcake. Her lips tasted like raspberry ripple and she had the most beautiful voice, like an angel. Or at least that was how Dexter remembered her. It had been so long ago, but her tanned skin was so soft and her beautiful face was flawless, not a zit or a blemish to be seen.


Jeremy on the other hand, he was a spotty little weasel! If she had dumped Dexter for him, then she was off her head! 

They did all hang out together, Jeremy always had a face like a bulldog chewing a wasp while Drew was more interested in studying science than girls.


Jeremy used to pretend he didn't like Katie, but as Dexter thought about it in his dreamy state, it was most certainly a front. How could any boy hate her? She was gorgeous!


She was just perfect in every way, she was kind to everyone even when they didn't deserve it, especially Jeremy who most definitely did not deserve her kindness! She would always say, "Oh come on Dexter he's lonely, that's why he lashes out. He's not as cute as you so give him a break, you can have any girl, he can't!" Dexter didn't want any girl, just Katie!



After high school when Dexter, Drew and Jeremy all headed to University, his attitude changed. Katie had hurt him and he wasn't going to let any other girl do that again! So he played the field and had a different girl every week, painting them and then taking them to bed. He never had one night stands though, he was trying to find that someone to cuddle up to at night, but he never found her. He even thought Rosalie was the one, but he grew bored of her eventually. He gave up on happiness and finding his soulmate...until Lainie came along! 


He had to clear the air, he had to tell her exactly how he felt or he'd regret it. She would end up being miserable with Alex and it would be all his fault! His alarm went off a couple of hours later at 8am, he headed for the bathroom hoping it would be free. He needed a good long shower and some clean clothes before he went looking for Lainie. He stood under the water and thought long and hard about what he was going to say.


He was going to ask her if she meant all the things she said when she was CookieGurl because Born2Rok meant every word...even the sexy words! He turned the water flow to cold as he thought about that night, it was hot! If he was honest, he'd liked CookieGurl very much but during their sexting he wished it was Lainie...little did he know that he was fulfilling his wish!


Clean, dressed in fresh clothes and determined to say his piece, Dexter left his room to find Lainie. He stopped in his tracks when he found her straight away...


...in the arms of smarmy Alex Wilder! He was pawing at her and she wasn't exactly fighting him off! It hurt his heart to see them together like that, after everything, he was very protective of Lainie where Alex was just...possessive!


She was aware of his presence and broke free of her captor giving him a shy smile. "Morning Dexy, your head okay?" She looked down at the ground as her cheeks flushed.


"Y-yeah, I feel fine. Just headin' for some magic bean juice!" He could feel Alex glowering at him while he called,
"See ya mate!" He hated it when he called him mate!


Safe inside the kitchen, Dexter blinked in surprise when he was met with Charlotte's unmistakable giggle. "Hello Dexter Maloney, how are you?"
"Fine Char, yeah!" Drew was standing next to her with puppy dog eyes, man how Dex envied them.


Matthew and Roxy appeared in the kitchen gibbering away to one another, it seemed as though they were getting along a bit better lately. "No you're wrong! Batman may be human but he's loaded! He can have any armour made, any weapons, anything at all! That's why he's a superhero!" Roxy was rolling her eyes at him as he defended Batman to her.
"You need to get a life because comic books are melting your brain cells!" It was true that Matthew was a total geek and loved Comics, Science Fiction and going to Comic Conventions. 


Great, thought Dexter as he watched them flirt, another pairing to be jealous of. At least Ash was as alone as he was...


...yeah Ash was totally alone! He'd snuck into Erin's room again and spent the night, just kissing and then sleeping. He refused to consummate their relationship until he came clean to everyone about them. Erin was frustrated, in more ways than one, but she was willing to wait. If Dexter found out now, it would surely be his undoing.


Because at this moment in time, he was hanging by a thread. As Lainie left with Alex later that morning, she could see how miserable Dexter was and put it down to his indiscretion with that Selena girl...


...when the real reason was that she was breaking his heart! It seemed like they were starting again...again! Only this time he was smack dab in the middle of the zone people liked to call friend!

To Be Continued...


Poor Dexy! Next chapter someone is out for revenge, and it isn't going to be pretty!
