Reinvention: Sequel to The Married Life

Chapter 11

We get to the restaurant and have a nice dinner. We end up going to his house, instead of mine. It's pretty obvious that we both feel some sexual tension in the air and decide to act upon it. We end up on his bed, kissing and exploring each other with our hands first. My hand makes it's way down first, and I grope him outside of his boxer and well, not what I'm use to feeling.....just feels smaller...but who knows, maybe he can work it, I'm not gonna count him out just yet. "Condom?" I ask. He reaches over in the draw of the nightstand and pulls out a new box of them. "I made sure I was prepared." "So you knew this would happen." "I hoped it would. I was just waiting on you." I smile.

He takes one out, and slips it on. He slides in and it was okay....not as intense to what I'm used to, but it'a something is be willing to...tolerate. Afterwards we lay here and cuddle and watch TV. He turns it on TV, and I end up falling asleep before he does. I wake up to the smell of food. I reach over and grab my phone of the charger. I have what seems like thousands of text messages, and I check the ones I feel are a little more important first. I check the ones from my parents, and sisters then Colin's. it's a video of the kids singing happy birthday to me. I ignore his hair being cut because the video is so damn cute.

D: Awww. That made my day and I literally just woke up. Tell them I love them so much, and I will call them soon.

C: Will do. Happy Birthday Demi. I hope you enjoy yourself. Have fun tonight🍆😏

I laugh out loud.

D: 😂😂😂you're an idiot. Thank you Colin.

C: No problem.

After replying to him, I reply to his family and the rest of my friends. I post the video that was sent to me.

"Umm...so I wake up to the cutest video in the whole world. I absolutely love my kids. Day has already been made and I've only been up for 10 minutes....damn y'all. I'm 30. #Dirty30 #HappyBirthdayToMe"

I go brush my teeth and head to the kitchen for breakfast.

"Smells good." I say walking in the kitchen. "Hey..just in time!" I sit down on the counter next to him. "Happy Birthday." He says then gives me a kiss. "Thank you...and thanks for a great birthday eve. I had fun." "Good. I'm glad you did." "A whatcha got planned for tonight?" "I am gonna go have a beer with the guys and come back home..and I'll hopefully see you tonight..after the party?" "Definitely." We eat breakfast and a little after that, I leave and go home.

Dallas comes over to come and decorate my house for tonight. "So how was last night." "It was good." "Did you finally have sex." "Yeah. We did." "And?" "...and it was okay." "Just okay?" "Yeah...okay. To be honest, it was nothing spectacular..not what I'm used to." "Awww...is he small?" "Mmmm juuuuuust a tad." "Tragic." "I know...but it doesn't matter. He's a good guy, and I'm not gonna break up with him because of a..." "Tiny wiener..." She says interrupting me. "It's not tiny...it's just..." "Tiny." "You know what, talking about my boyfriends dick will get us no where in decorating for the party. "Oooookay." We finish decorating and later enjoy a very interesting party.

{Colin's POV}

Seems like Demi had a good time at her party. The next day is game day. We end up winning, and right after the game, I have to drive the kids back, because the girls have school tomorrow. I have practice in the afternoon tomorrow, so I'm just gonna stay in LA tonight, and head back in the morning. We make it to Demi's and I give them baths and out them to bed. "How was the party?" I ask. "Good." I notice gift bags on the floor in the living room and reach inside and pull out some lingerie. "Ooooo. This is nice." "Give me that." She says snatching it away. "What.....oh right, that's for ya new man huh." She rolls her eyes. "Come here." I say pulling her closer to me. "Colin..." "What...he ain't here is he?" "No..." "Good." I say cutting her off then kiss her soft lips.

We end up in my room, all clothes off by the time we make it to the bed. I've missed her so much, I can no longer wait to dive in. Soon as I get her on the bed, I slide right in. No foreplay or anything. Hell we didn't need it. She was already nice and wet inside. I've probably had sex with Brittany once or twice, and I ain't gone lie, it was good, but no one can make me feel the way this woman does. She's different in every way possible, and it pisses me off that we are probably never gonna get back together. She has her mind set on it. It's pretty obvious that she either ain't got none lately, or other dude is weak. Imma go with the second one. "Deeper." She demands. I go as deep and quick as I can. After holding out a few times, I finally bust leaving us both satisfied.

After catching my breath, I lay beside her. Then she puts the pillow over her head and yells into it. "What the hell is wrong with you?" "Why do you do this to me?" "I don't know what your talkin about." "Yes you do...and you have a girlfriend." "Man that's not my girlfriend. You need to stop reading them damn blog sites and shit. We just kick it when she come into town. That's it." "Oh so she just comes over an fucks...please tell me you're smart enough to wear protection." I don't say anything, because the first couple times, I didn't. I just pulled out. "Colinnn! Really? We just had unprotected sex. Oh my god I'm infected." "If yo dramatic ass don't calm down. I got tested after the very first time." "And what were the results?" "What the fuck, I'm clean. I wouldn't have had sex with you if I wasn't." I say and she calms down. "Listen, I'm really tired of this. Okay. We've been divorced for a year, and I'm still in love with you. I want another chance with you." "I'm in a relationship." "Then why am I in your bed naked?" "You act as if you don't take advantage of my vulnerability." "Do you love this dude?" She hesitates. "I have really strong feelings for him." "So that's a no." "Colin.." "Do you love me?" I ask cutting her off. "I do love you, but not in the way you want me to." "What I have to do to make you love me again?" She sighs. "What do I have to do?" I repeat.

"Colin...you can't MAKE me love you again. It's something that's just gonna have to happen on it's own." "Okay, then lets take it slow then. I wanna earn your trust and love. I'll fly here every week on my off day to take you on a date, or we can just spend it in the house, I don't care. I'll send you roses every fucking day if I have to." "I don't care about roses, presents and stuff. You know that....I'm happy Colin. Weren't you the one that said if I'm happy then you're happy." "Yeah, but I wanna be the one to make you happy, not him. I wanna make you laugh, and smile." "Colin....I know we have 10 years of history, but I can't just up and run back to you." "Yes you can. You can do anything you wanna do." "Yeah, but I don't want to. That's what you're not getting. I told you, I'm happy with the guy I'm with. I can't do that to him because you haven't moved on." "Okay..." I say getting up and I get dressed, and she does the same.

She walks me to the door. "I'll be over in the morning to take the girls to school." "Okay." I leave and on the way to the hotel, I start sobbing like a baby. I'm not crying hysterically but I mean it's like the tears are never ending. She's right, I can't make her love me again. It's just something I have to live with. This is no ones fault but mine, and I really have to learn to move on from her. I don't know how I'm gonna do it, but I'll find a way. I get to the hotel and I don't fall asleep late as hell. I couldn't sleep. All I did was look through pictures on my phone that I never deleted. I thought about deleting them while I was going through them, but I didn't. The next morning, I get up and get dressed. I head over to Demi's house and the girls are finishing breakfast. "Hungry?" Demi asks. "Nah I'm good." "Junior's still sleep?" "Yeah. He doesn't really like getting up early. Oh...by the way, his hair..." "He looks good doesn't he." "At first I was a little pissed, but he does look really handsome." "I know he does." She rolls her eyes. The girls finish eating, and give Demi hugs and kisses and I take them to school.
