I Accidentally Fell in Love With my Ex "Best Friend's" Ex-Boyfriend

Exactly three years ago today, I made what would turn out to be the worst mistake of my life, but I didn't know that at the time. The day before was like any normal day for me; nothing was amiss. I was at the dog park with my best friend, a girl I had known for thirteen years. We were going to drop off my dog and then go to dinner with our friends, one of which was her ex-boyfriend, a man I had known for a decade. It was like any other day. We had all hung out hundreds of times. I had no way of knowing that in less than twenty-four short hours, my life would change.

My best friend and I dropped off my dog, then we rushed to get ready for dinner. We were running late as always. We planned to meet up with the guys and some of their friends for dinner. Then we were off to an escape room; this would be my first and their third escape room. I was so excited! I always wanted to go to an escape room but, I never had the opportunity to go before this. My best friend and I took an Uber to the restaurant where we were scheduled to meet up with the guys. We ate dinner, the Italian food was delicious and as always we washed it down with wine. My friend's ex-boyfriend had invited an old friend of his out with us, and the man brought his wife. My best friend had always been a very catty, jealous, and insecure girl. I could tell by her demeanor throughout dinner there was going to be drama.

We finished dinner and hopped in our Uber making our way to the escape room. We shared a car with the guys, and the couple ordered their own ride. As soon as we were away from the new female, my best friend started her shit. Saying things like, "I think that man's wife is threatened by me. I really don't like her, and blah, blah, blah, fucking blah."

Now some of you may be wondering why I would talk this way about my best friend. Well, I had known this girl for thirteen years, and she was a terrible person, very narcissistic, and I was fed up with her shit! She constantly trashed other women; I couldn't stand that about her. She would also trash all of her friends behind their backs. She treated everyone like absolute shit, but expected them to bow down to her every want, need, and demand. I was so sick of her, but couldn't call her out; I knew there would be hell to pay if I said anything to her. So for years, I bit my tongue.

Her ex-boyfriend and I immediately started defending the woman, a woman I had just met, in an attempt to calm our friend down. We arrived at the escape room location, and she had calmed down a bit. I knew she wouldn't start shit with the woman; she was too much of a coward to say things to people's faces most of the time. We walked in, everything was fine. I personally had tons of fun in the escape room; we escaped! My first escape room and we escaped, it was great! I have always been quite the detective, and I had so much fun trying to solve the clues. The guys were complimenting me on my detective skills. I felt a sense of pride. My best friend didn't say anything, but their compliments to me probably pissed her off.

We left the escape room and went to a bar, a fun little speakeasy that I had never been to before. The bar had these delicious tropical drinks that went down way too easily. I drank too many. I was bored; I was the odd person out. My best friend was hogging her ex-boyfriends' attention, as always; I always felt like a third wheel when I was with them. I didn't know the couple well. So I started talking to our other friend, a male that had been hitting on me for years, but I didn't want to be with him. I had just broken up with my boyfriend of six years just a month or so before this. I had NEVER been interested in this guy. Because I was drunk and bored, I got a little too flirty.

It was getting late; people were ready to go home. My best friend and the couple decided to leave. I decided to stay and hang out with the guys. We had spent time with each other many times before this. How was I supposed to know this night would be any different? We said our goodbyes; then we parted ways. The guys and I decided to go to another bar. I was already wasted but decided it would be a good idea to keep drinking. So I started throwing back shots of whisky with the guys. They were my friends, I had known them for years, I trusted these guys. What could go wrong? Oh, well, I kinda left out a major detail; I had a secret crush on my best friend's ex-boyfriend; but nobody knew that, not even him.

Now, my blacked-out blur began to set in at the bar; I don't remember much about being there. I don't even remember leaving. The next thing I know, I'm on this futon at an apartment I've never been to before. My best friend's ex-boyfriend was seated next to me. I asked where our other friend went and was told he was outside smoking. I assumed we must be at our other friends' place, my best friend's ex-boyfriend didn't even live in this state.

Everything went black again; I was in and out of consciousness. The last thing I remember I was fully clothed and talking casually to my best friend's ex-boyfriend, but now I was naked and he was on top of me. What the fuck happened? How did this start? I didn't have a fucking clue what was going on. We weren't actually having sex, I knew what we were doing was wrong, but I had wanted him for years. I couldn't believe this was happening. He had never told me he was interested in me in the last decade that we had known each other. He had given me a couple of hints after he broke with her, but he never said anything directly to me.

I don't remember much, but I remember him saying, "I'm not going to kiss you, Kayla." "If you don't kiss me, I won't allow it to go any further than this," I replied. Everything went black again. When I came to again he was telling me how much he "loves" my piercing, the one below the belt. Yeah, that's right, I have my hood pierced, and he loved it. No one had ever said that to me before. I don't remember anything more than this, other than the fact that he kept telling me how much he loved so many things about me. We were too drunk to actually have sex that night. At some point, we both passed out.

I was delirious when I woke up. I didn't know where I was or even who I was with. A man was lying next to me on that futon, but who the fuck was he? It took a minute to register that the guy next to me was my best friend's ex-boyfriend. "Oh, fuck me!" I silently shrieked. I threw my clothes on and ran out the door. I stopped, I didn't know what to do. I didn't know where the fuck I was; my car was at my best friend's house; I didn't want to face her, and I was still too drunk to drive.

I reluctantly turned around and went back inside. I woke him up, I was freaking out. I was having a major fucking panic attack. I didn't know what to do. He was trying to console me, but I was worried about what our other friend had seen. It was a studio apartment; how much had he seen? He has a big fucking mouth, of course, he's going to tell my best friend. FUCK!!!!!!!!!

To be continued...

Unfortunately, I'm going to have to stop here. I'll write more juicy details soon. It's just I have to get to work. My life has fallen apart recently. I'm filing for bankruptcy, my car broke down and I had to let it get repossessed. Some of you who know me from my other stories; know that I am a cam girl and amateur porn star, but my main source of income was from driving ride-share and working delivery jobs. Without a car, I obviously can't do those driving jobs anymore. Cam and amateur porn are the only income sources I have left.

I would love to write more. However, I don't currently earn much from my writing; if you love my stories and want me to write more, tips are the best way to support me. Tips are always welcome and greatly appreciated! If you can't wait for me to write the next part of this series and want to hear more now, there are bits and pieces of this story strewn throughout my YouTube channel. My video series on narcissistic abuse was inspired in part by this story. I've included the link to the first video in that series. Just know that my videos may be triggering for some. Please watch with caution!

Thank you all so much for reading my stories! If you left me a tip, thank you so very much! I'll try to get part two of this series written soon.
