Crack in the Dam Wall

Demyan 

When we got home I helped Malia out and she was quick to head to her bedroom because she had been moaning about taking a nap. The first thing I did was rush upstairs, take a shower, brush my teeth and that helped my conscience a lot more. 

It did not feel right to hug and kiss Ethan with Malia's scent on me nor did it feel right to hug and kiss her with Ethan all over me. 

I let out a quick exhale as I prepared myself in front of the mirror. Dad, Pa, Ej, Vasilisa and Oksana were all out. I knew they would be home in an hour for dinner so whatever I had to do to get Malia smiling again meant I had to do it fast. 

Why was I nervous to kiss her? I had kissed her plenty of times before and I barely even thought about it. Now I felt like some nervous teenager with little to know experience when I had Ethan's tongue down my throat this morning. She was still my girlfriend naturally plus I had kissed her when we arrived in London.
