New Beginning

CHAPTER FORTY NINE

Chris

"Ammika," I asked completely stunned to see her here. She had several small bags in her hand. Don't get me wrong, it was nice to see she bought some of Raya's products, but what a situation to be in.
"Yeah, how are you," she smiled widely pulling me into a hug. From the side of me I seen Raya raise her eyebrows staring exactly at her. I quickly returned the hug and pulled back. I didn't need Raya getting the wrong intentions so I pulled her closer into me by her waist.
"I'm doing good. Good to see you. So this is my girl Raya," I introduced. I know Raya and I haven't necessarily made it official with another yet, but I wouldn't introduce her as anything different in front of my ex. "Raya this is Ammika, my ex."
"Oh wow, this is your brand," Ammika confirmed. "I can't wait to try all my new make up. I'm a model, so I'll give you a shout out on Instagram."
"Thank you. I would appreciate that. I hope you enjoy," Raya responded classily with a small smile. She carassed the back of my neck with her hand which indicated to me I did good on how I handled the situation. I hope she bust it wide for me tonight.
"So ma told me she saw you at the store about a week ago," I continued.
"Oh yeah, it was nice seeing her."
"Fasho. She also told me she saw your baby. So you had a boy huh," I asked trying to feel her out. Her cool expression faltered for just a second as fear came to her eyes, but she quickly recovered with another smile. If I wasn't for me studying her so hard I would've missed it.
"Yes, his name is Aeko. He just turned two," she took a quick glance at her phone. "Well it was nice meeting you Raya and great to see you Chris, but I need to get going. Have a good night."

"Well she's cute. She doesn't look better than me but cute," Raya said afterwards. I chuckled.

"Damn, conceited much?"

"I can't help it at this point. You gas me every day. The compliments are starting to go to my head."

"As they should. You're the most beautiful girl in here," I brought her close to me again so we could kiss.
"I'm ready to get out of here so you can tear this ass up," she told me with lust filled eyes.
"Wrap this shit up so we can get out of here then."
"Okay," she said all to eagerly.

I waited about 45 minutes until Raya returned. She had to make sure everything ended smoothly and see her children off with their grandparents. When she caught my eye her goofy ass was smiling the entire time she walked over to me.
"Let's go bae," I said once our hands met.
"Did you already tell everyone bye," she asked.
"Nah, they'll understand," I was ready to get shit poppin.
"Oooh I'm about to get some diiiick," she sang when we got in the car.

Raya did not get any dick that night.

In fact, she fell asleep before they even got to the house.

They DID manage to get to the couch before crashing out though.

Tragic. 😂
*ends music*

Raya

When I woke up it was about 12 pm. Somewhere along the line I ended up in Chris's bed. I stretched wildly getting in that "good stretch" before I got out the bed. Chris wasn't up here with me so I just assumed he was downstairs somewhere. I took a little time in the bathroom to get cleaned up then I went to search for my baby.
He was in fact downstairs in the dining room, casually rolling up a blunt.
"Good morning sleepyhead," he looked up.
"Good morning baby, so I'm assuming I didn't get nailed to the cross last night huh," I asked as I took a seat next to him. He shook his head no, sealing the blunt with those juicy ass lips of his. I had to close my legs because my thoughts were taking me to a totally different level. I wasn't trying to come off as a feen or anything, but I just couldn't help it. One look at the man and I'm ready to put it down my throat. To make matters even better, he's all fucking mine.
"I think the both of us bit off way more than then we could chew last night. We were both tired as fuck," he lit the blunt taking a long pull before coughing. "Shiiaat! This bitch hitting."
"I'm not going to lie I haven't been able to get much sleep lately. There's been a lot to get done."
"You know I understand baby. That's why I decided to just let us both get some much needed rest," he passed the blunt to me and I immediately let the smoke fill in my lungs. He wasn't lying this was some good shit. I always loved getting high with him because he kept the best.
"Last night was amazing. Wow, I have never been so proud of myself," I told him truthfully. Last night and the success of last night still had me on a major high.
"Speaking of which, hold that thought," he jumped out of his chair sprinting passed me.
"Damn boy all that wind almost put the blunt out," I called after him. A couple seconds later he returned to me with a small, pearl colored gift bag in his hand.
"What's this?"
"Wellll, you know from the day one I told you I believe you could be anything you dreamed of and we've been all watching it come true. I just want you to know, even if I said it a million times already, that I am so proud of you. So this is for you baby," he handed me the bag and I couldn't stop the smile on my face from spreading.
"Oh my Mauriceee, you're always doing something I swear!!" There was a black jewelry box with a soft pink bow tied around it. I carefully undid the bow before opening the box. Once I did my mouth gaped open from taking in my present. There laid in front of me was a butterfly embedded cuban link alongside the bracelet to match. I was completely shocked it was fucking beautiful!
