Ours For The Taking

chapter 22: at peace, but not really.

(ONE WEEK LATER, NICKI'S POV)

"What?" I stared at my computer screen in disbelief. I was scrolling down my tl and saw a TMZ article. It was about Safaree dating K Michelle.

I exited out of twitter and texted Safaree.

ME: come over bae, I wanna talk 😛💦

I turned my phone off. He wants to play this game? Okay. We can play.

When he arrived, I was just done getting dressed in the sexiest outfit I could find.

"Nic!" He yelled.

I walked slowly down the stairs. "Damn.." I heard him mutter under his breath. He put his bag down, I guess he though he was spending the night, and walked toward me. Our faces were 2 inches apart, as I was wearing one of my tallest pair of heels, so we were almost perfectly face to face.

He put his arms behind me and gripped my ass. I lifted my hand and smacked him straight in the face. "What the fuck was that for?" He held his cheek in obvious pain. "This isn't yours to touch playboy."

(SAFAREE'S POV)

 "What do you want?" I was getting angrier. "K Michelle...TMZ....what's going on? No matter how hard we deny it...there's always some truth to those articles."  We sat on the couch.

"Okay... Me and her are talking."

"Safaree I've known you for 14 years. Tell me the truth."

"I think I love her."

"Good one. Okay so what's the real truth?"

"It's clear you're over me...I don't wanna be the one who still hasn't moved on." I confess.

"I'm not over you. I'm no where near that. I keep coming back to you! I want you, Safaree! You're making it pretty damn hard...you keep breaking my heart. Meek loves me.." She said. "I know he does, Nic..I just don't want to let you go...You're the best thing that's ever happened to me." There were tears in my eyes. "But you know you have to. We.." She corrected herself, "We have to let go."

(NICKI'S POV)

After he left, I went to youtube and watched his interview with the breakfast club, then all his TMZ videos. The most recent one was of him taking some girl out. He bought  her a red rose and the camera guy commented, "Roses are nice to get," or something along those lines. The girl said, "I've gotten more from him."

"Who the fuck is this hoe?!" I yelled. Then I started crying, and then i got mad at myself. "He's not yours, Onika! He's gonna date whoever he wants, you can't tell him what to do." I told myself. I like to be in control..and Safaree is always gonna be in my life no matter what.. He's trying to support Meek and I, so I should support who ever he wants to be with. He constantly supports me and my music. I'm gonna support him and his music.

He's my best fucking friend. I really don't know what the fuck im gonna do. "Nika what did you get yourself into?" I sighed, putting my head in my hands.

(PRESENT DAY, MARCH 1ST)

Okay, it's serious now. I love Meek. I do. I haven't talked to Safaree in forever. And honestly, I finally feel at peace with everything. I love Meek. Did I say that already? Ha. We've been showing each other the fuck OFF on Instagram, even today I posted a picture of just our hands, and everyone is going insane. (Picture on the side) I visited my mom and brothers last week, they're all good.

Meek and I did a show in North Carolina last night. It was so fun!!! And now we're in our hotel in North Carolina. We're flying back to Philly in about an hour. Im sitting up in bed, trying to get the tour set list together for the American tour, so I can send it to the officials.

"Onika!!!" Meek yelled. I hopped out of bed and walked to the kitchen. "Yea?"

"I love you baby." He wrapped his arms around me and kissed me. I kissed back, putting my hands on his shoulders. "I love you too Zaddy." I say, pulling away from the kiss. I smiled at him and he laughed. "What you laughin at me for?" I giggled. "Nothin baby." He smiled, sliding his hands down my back, to my ass.
