Fire & Desire

14|Skipping Town

Aza POV

I stood outside her door, contemplating knocking every time I got the courage to. It has been a few weeks since me and Kapri spoke and I really needed closure from this situation. I haven't been able to eat or sleep. Plus Jade is getting suspicious because I won't have sex with her anymore.

When Kapri announced her reengangment that night at dinner , a small part of me was happy. I assumed I would feel free from the situation since I knew for sure that whatever we had going on was completely over. But by the way these few weeks been going , I knew it wasn't going to be easy.

"Why am I here?" I thought to myself. I had a girl at home who loved me and has been through so much with me . The least I owed her was loyalty. But instead I had been sneaking around with a woman that wasn't even my type initially.

I gathered myself before turning away from the door, " You shouldn't be here Aza , just let the situation die out. It's over." I said to myself as I started walking away from her door.

"Aza?" I heard a light voice say from behind me. I knew from the softness that it wasn't Kapri. I turned around slowly to see Dianne standing in the doorway with two suitcases next to her.

"Um" I chuckled nervously , " Wassup Dianne." I said as I walked back towards her direction.

"Hey! You here for Kapri?? She went to get us some food, she should be back soon." Dianne said as she moved some of her curls out of her face.

"Uh-nah it's cool. Tell her I stopped by?" I said before preparing to walk off.

"Wait Aza!" I heard her luggage rolling from behind me as her heels clicked against the floor.

"Wassup." I said as I turned around. She held a small piece of paper in her hand , she extended her arm, giving it to me, " Can you give this Kapri?" She asked with her head hanging low.

I frowned as I realized what it was , a goodbye note, " You never deserved her." I said as my eyes roamed the words of the notes.

Dianne held her head down low, " I know and that's why I'm leaving." She said lowly.

"You're a coward , a user and a manipulator , I don't know what Kapri sees in you." I became enraged . Dianne was going out her way at this point to hurt Kapri . Why even say yes to the engagement if you was just going to abonden her.

Dianne instantly busted out crying, " It's not that simple Aza. I've loved Kapri for a very long time but something was always missing. I've forced myself for years to be happy to please Kapri cause her happiness means the world to me. I'm just so use to being by her side that I jumped at the first opportunity she gave me to be there. I don't know nothing else but Kapri!" She cried harder.

After a few seconds she gathered herself , " and that's why I want you to give this to her." She pointed at the note.

"I can't do it Aza!" She sniffled , "I am a coward , I've never been able to stand up to Kapri. I knew how much she loved me and I've always felt like if I didn't try to reciprocate it , I was going to hurt her bad... and I did." She hung her head.

"Look I know you don't understand and this may look so bad on my part but I promise Aza , I'm a good person and so is Kapri. We just became codependent on each other . Our relationship was pass toxic . We became each other everything and sometime that is too much." She admitted.

" I'll give her the note Dianne." I finally spoke . I did feel sorry for her and someway because I felt like I was her but in my relationship. I stayed with Jade because I often felt like I owed her not because I truly loved her . Dianne was a mirror for me . I couldn't judge her because I was just like her . A coward.

"Thank you." She went back to the apartment , locking the door . She came back over to me and placed the apartment key in my hand, " I hope it works out." She said as she reached up placing a kiss on my cheek.

"What works out?" I asked confused by her words and kiss.

She smiled , " You know , you have that look." She said as she grabbed her luggage.

"Wait Dianne I'm confused what look?" I asked before she could start walking off but she was already almost to the elevator .

"That look I had when I first fell in love with Kapri." She yelled back sending chills down my spine. Did she know? How could she know? She's only been back for so long? Was I in love with Kapri?

The elavotor dinged , " Aza!" Dianne yelled out , grabbing my attention once more . I looked back into her direction.

"Did Kapri leave out the part about me that I'm an empath!?" She yelled down the hall.

"Be careful Aza. You're playing a dangerous game." For a second I swore her eyes turned a different color . "Catch you in another life." Was her last words before the elevator doors closed.

I left feeling confused and a little scared . I went back to Kapri apartment with the note still in my hand. I unlocked the apartment door before going in. I locked the door behind me before going over to the couch and plunging my body in it . I quickly dozed off as Kapri expensive couch instantly consumed me with comfort .

" Aza.. Aza... AZA!" I instantly jumped up out of my sleep. I woke up to Kapri pretty face in front of me.

"What the fuck are you doing here , where's Dianne." She asked . I didn't even say anything . I just handed her the note that I had slept with in my hand.

Kapri instantly started reading the note. Her eyes became gloomy and I couls see her heartbreaking right in front of me the more she read.

She let the paper escape her hands before falling to her knees, " Why don't she love me back Aza." Kapri cried . I instantly got down to her level as I held her in my arms comforting her .

After a few minutes Kapri crying finally stopped , she wiped her tears , "Why are you here ?" She asked with a confused look on her face.

I shrugged , " I actually came to talk to you but caught Dianne right when she was leaving ... why you ain't tell me she a witchy type bitch." I asked . I was still so confused by our encounter.

"What she say to you? Whatever it was believe it. I hate her so much right now but Dianne is gifted." Kapri said as she finally got off the floor.

She sighed , " imma just go to bed ." She said as she sniffled.

"You can see yourself out Aza, Good night." She said coldly .

I felt a small pain in my chest . My feelings was hurt from how she just dismissed me like that. I scuffed before grabbing my keys and angrily walking to the door.

"What the fuck is wrong with you!" Kapri said from behind me. " I don't even care . I can't deal with you or this situation right now , it's too much." She said from behind me.

"Oh so you can deal with me with your fucking me but quick to dismiss me when I'm the only one here for you right now? You knew that bitch wasn't solid , get over it Kapri. You hurting your own self." I instantly regretted those words as She came rushing over . Her hand tightened around my neck as she jacked me up against the door. Her eyes was feeled with rage but also pain.

"Dont speak to me like that Aza." She said sternly , "or what ??" I challenged her .

Her eyes soften and became filled with something else, lust. Our mouth instantly connected before we went to trying to pull each other clothes off.

"No - no." I quickly stopped her . " your not going to use me to help cope with your ex doing you dirty again." I said as I fixed my shirt.

I walked back into the direction of the door , "Good night Kapri." I said before trying to exit . I was almost out the door before I heard Kapri's voice , " Please don't leave me alone tonight. We don't have to have sex . Please just be here for me." She said as she began crying again.

I gave in way to easily as I walked her back to her room. I stripped off all my clothes before climbing into her bed. She got in next to me cuddling up beside me.
