I fucked my best friend’s girlfriend’s best friend the day after her house-warming
I still can’t believe I’m writing this.
Last weekend my best friend Rohan and his girlfriend Meera finally moved into their new 2BHK in Andheri West. Proper house-warming. Nothing fancy some drinks, Maggi, Bluetooth speaker, a few common friends. Meera’s best friend, Ananya, was also there. I’d seen her a couple of times before but never really spoken properly.
It was already raining when I reached. That typical August Mumbai rain not the heavy flooding type, just constant light-to-moderate drizzle that makes everything sticky and clothes cling. Humidity was high, the kind where your shirt sticks to your back even if you’re just standing.
We all got pretty heavy. By 1 a.m. half the people had left because trains were delayed and cabs were charging 3x. Rohan and Meera were already half-asleep on the mattress in the living room. Ananya was sitting next to me on the bean bag, both of us still drinking. She had broken up with her boyfriend like three weeks ago. I knew that. Everyone knew that.
Around 1:30 Meera half-opened her eyes and mumbled, “Jay, can you drop Ananya? Please yaar, trains will be fucked.”
I said okay.
We took an auto because Uber was showing 25 minutes. The rain was still coming down, not heavy but enough that the auto’s plastic flaps were down and everything smelled of wet tar and her perfume. She was quiet for most of the ride. Then just before her building in Lokhandwala she turned and kissed me. Proper, drunk, open-mouthed kiss. I froze for a second, then kissed her back for maybe ten seconds before I pulled away.
“Ananya… you’re drunk. And this is a bad idea.”
She looked at me, eyes glassy, and just said, “I know.”
I made her drink water, walked her to the gate, waited till the watchman opened, and left. Did the right thing. Felt weirdly proud of myself.
Next day I was back at Rohan’s place by 11 because I had promised to help him move the remaining boxes and assemble the study table. Ananya was already there. Fresh clothes, hair open, acting completely normal. Like the kiss never happened. We exchanged the usual “hi, hangover kaisa hai” and got to work.
Around 1:30 Rohan and Meera decided they needed to buy a few more kitchen things and some curtains. “We’ll be back in an hour, max one and a half. Don’t break anything,” Rohan said, laughing.
The second they left, the silence in the flat felt different.
Ananya was sitting on the edge of the bed in the second bedroom, scrolling her phone. I was standing near the window. The rain had started again soft, steady, the kind that makes the whole city look grey and private.
She looked up and said, very quietly, “Yesterday… I’m sorry.”
I said, “It’s fine. We were both drunk.”
She stood up, walked over, and stopped right in front of me. “I wasn’t that drunk.”
This time when she kissed me I didn’t stop her.
We moved to the bed. Clothes came off faster than they should have. Her skin was warm and a little damp from the humidity. The rain was hitting the window and the AC was off so the room felt thick. I knew exactly where Rohan kept the condoms top drawer of the side table, same place he used to keep them in the old PG. I took one out without saying anything.
We fucked on the new bed in the second bedroom while the city outside was grey and wet. She was quiet at first, then not quiet at all. At one point she bit my shoulder hard enough that I’m still carrying the mark. I came inside the condom, stayed inside her for a while, then we did it again twenty minutes later because neither of us wanted to get up and face whatever the fuck we had just done.
Rohan and Meera came back around 3. We were both sitting in the living room by then, looking completely normal, helping unpack plates. Ananya left half an hour later with a casual “bye, see you.”
We haven’t spoken about it since.
But every time it rains like this that soft, sticky, endless Mumbai drizzle I think about that second bedroom and how easy it was.
That’s my confession. Also please don't ask for pics & ID Thanks!!
