The engine of my beat-up sedan gave one final, shuddering gasp before I twisted the key and let the silence of the driveway swallow me whole. I leaned my forehead against the steering wheel for a long minute, just breathing in the scent of old upholstery and the lingering ghost of my morning coffee. My feet were throbbing in my heels, and my lower back felt like it had been hammered into a crooked line, but as I looked at the front door of the house, the house that finally felt like it had a heartbeat again, a tired, genuine smile crept across my face.
A sharp ping echoed through the car. I reached for my phone and there it was: a message from John. “Chem lab is a nightmare, but I’m counting down the seconds. See you at 6:00 for dinner. Love you, gorgeous.” I felt that familiar, warm flutter in my stomach, the kind that makes you feel a decade younger and ten years more reckless. I love that boy, I really do. He’s a whirlwind of energy and sincerity, a solid piece of granite in a world made of shifting sand.
But god, the boy is a furnace. As I shifted the car into park, I couldn’t help but think about the sheer exhaustion of keeping up with him. John doesn’t just want me; he wants to consume me. He’s got this relentless, shimmering drive to screw three times a day, sometimes even more. After the only day we’d done it three times, I was so sore and tired I could barely walk.
While the fire was intoxicating, my body was starting to plead for a ceasefire. I’d be perfectly blissful with three or four times a week; that way, it stays a treat and doesn’t become a second job. Still, as I glanced at the stack of unpaid notices on the passenger seat, the thought of his contribution to the rent made the prospect of a few extra rounds feel like a fair trade.
I stepped out of the car, my heels clicking a weary rhythm against the driveway. The air was thick with the scent of blooming jasmine and the distant smell of frying oil from the neighbors, but as soon as the front door clicked shut behind me, the house wrapped me in that new, heavy scent: John’s cologne mixed with the lingering musk of our morning. I didn’t even take off my coat before I drifted toward the back door. I needed a moment. Just one moment where I wasn’t a mother, a manager, or a lover, just a woman with a nicotine craving and a brain that wouldn’t stop buzzing.
I leaned against the railing and flicked the lighter, the flame dancing for a second before the first drag of the cigarette hit my lungs. It was a sharp, comforting bite. Just as the smoke began to curl into the evening air, the back gate creaked open. Cherry stepped in, her backpack slouching off one shoulder, her eyes brightening the second she saw me. She looked tired, but there was this new, knowing glow in her expression.
“He’s still coming over tonight, right?” she asked, stepping closer, her voice hopeful. “Mom, do you think he’s actually thinking about us? Like, us us? Not just you?”
I took another drag, the smoke curling around my lips. “He’s a good boy, Cherry. A good young man. I think he really does care about both of us.”
“I just ... I really like him,” she sighed, leaning against the brick wall next to me. “I mean, he’s so big and he’s so nice. Do you think he’ll ever get bored? Does love usually start out ... intense, and then just go away?”
I looked at her, seeing a mirror of my own younger, hungrier self. I felt a surge of tenderness, though it was tinged with the knowledge that she was waking up to a world that didn’t always play fair.
“Is it always this scary at first?” she asked. “The feeling in your stomach?”
“Yes,” I replied softly. “The butterflies are just anxiety and excitement fighting for the same space.”
“And ... and the dating part?” she pressed, her eyes wide. “Do you have to pretend to like things he likes? Do you think he likes that I’m around, or is he just being polite?”
“You don’t have to pretend, honey. He’s genuinely fond of you. He likes the noise and smiles you bring to the house. He wants to be your new dad.”
“What about the ... the other stuff?” she whispered, her face flushing. “The part where you’re actually in love? How do you know when it’s not just ... you know, the heat?”
I smiled, thinking of the way John looked at me when he thought I wasn’t watching. “When the heat is there, but you also want to tell them the boring parts of your day. When you want them to be the last thing you see before you close your eyes. For me ... yeah, I think I love him. Or I’m very close to it.”
“Does it hurt?” she asked, the final question hanging in the air. “You know, the sex part?”
“Sometimes, a little,” I admitted. “But it’s way better than loneliness and silence.”
I reached down and crushed the glowing ember of my cigarette into the tray with a slow, deliberate twist. I stared at the grey ash for a moment, then, without hesitation, I reached for another. The click of the lighter was the only sound in the yard.
“I usually only smoke one after work,” I said, exhaling a long, silver cloud that blurred the edge of the horizon. “But today was just a really hard day.”
I felt a small tug on my hand. I looked down to see Cherry’s fingers, slender and trembling just a bit, sliding a single cigarette out of my pack with the precision of a thief. Before I could even process the audacity of it, she flicked my lighter and took a drag, her expression twisting into a grimace of genuine disgust, but she didn’t cough. She just held the smoke in for a heartbeat, her eyes staring at nothing, trying to find the secret magic in the nicotine.
“Well,” I leaned back, crossing my arms, a tired but amused smile tugging at my lips. “I guess we’re officially in the rebellion phase. Why now, Cherry? Why finally decide to join the ranks of the stressed-out and stained?”
Cherry let the smoke drift out of her nose, looking oddly sophisticated and entirely out of place. “I just wondered what it was like,” she whispered, her voice sounding smaller than usual. “And if it actually works. You know ... if it really helps people stay calm. You always look so ... quiet when you’re out here. Like the world stops shouting for a minute.”
My heart sank a little. I reached out, brushing a stray lock of strawberry-blonde hair from her forehead. “It’s a fake kind of calm, honey. A loan you have to pay back with your health later. But you’re not usually the type to seek out a shortcut. What’s actually going on? Why are you so upset that a cigarette seems like a good idea?”
Cherry looked away, her gaze landing on the overgrown grass of the backyard. She took another tentative puff, her shoulders hunching up to her ears. “There’s just ... this feeling,” she admitted, her cheeks flushing a deep, burning crimson. “I have a crush. A really, really big one. It’s like this humming wire in my chest that won’t stop vibrating.”
I raised an eyebrow, curiosity piqued. “A boy at school? One of those brooding types with a guitar or a skateboard?”
She let out a sharp, sudden laugh that sounded almost like a sob. “I’m not telling you who,” she snapped, though there was no heat in it, only a desperate kind of longing. “Not yet. It’s too ... it’s too much to say out loud. If I say the name it makes it real, and if it’s real he might go away.”
“Sometimes I feel like that when I talk about John. I hope we’re lucky and things work out, but I have to plan ahead in case it doesn’t.”

I was practically vibrating in the driver’s seat, my skin feeling too tight for my body. Every time I looked at Ann in the passenger seat, my mind just went into overdrive, replaying the way she’d sounded this morning, that raw, desperate whimpering that had practically carved a hole in my chest. I was starving, and I wasn’t talking about the food. I wanted to devour her, to push her against the nearest flat surface and remind her exactly who she belonged to. My blood felt like it had been replaced by liquid fire, and every small movement she made, the way her dress shifted over her thigh, the way she tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, was like a match being struck against my nerves.
The smell of the fried chicken hit me as soon as we walked in, but it was a distant second to the scent of her. We sat at the small table, the air thick with the domesticity of mashed potatoes and green beans, and I tried to act like a normal human being. I played the part, asking Cherry about her day, nodding as she rambled about some art project, but my eyes were locked on Ann’s lips. I watched the way she chewed, the way her throat moved when she swallowed, and I felt a primitive, clawing need to replace that dinner with something much more visceral. Every “pass the salt” or “how was your day” felt like a lie; the only truth in the room was the thrumming ache in my groin and the electric current jumping between me and that woman.
Suddenly, the tension snapped when we finally migrated to the sofa. I managed to wedge myself right in the middle, a strategic strike that put me in direct contact with both of them. To my left, Cherry was a little bundle of energy, leaning into me with a hopeful, clingy warmth. To my right, Ann was a siren, her heat radiating through the fabric of the couch. We put on some movie, but I couldn’t tell you a single thing about the plot. All I could focus on was the friction of my shoulder against Ann’s and the way the air seemed to vanish every time she breathed.
I started slow. A soft, lingering kiss on her cheek that lasted a second too long, then another on the corner of her mouth, tasting the salt and vanilla of her skin. She let out a shaky little sigh, and I knew she was feeling it too, that same heavy, magnetic pull. Under the cover of the big, fuzzy blanket, I let my hand wander. I didn’t go for the finish; I wanted to torture her just a little. My fingers found the soft, heavy curve of her breast, my thumb brushing over the peak of her nipple through the thin fabric of her dress.
