It's Monday afternoon and I'm sitting at my desk wishing I was with Aubrey right now. All this time we've spent together makes it so much harder to be apart.
I'm signing off on contracts, deals and press releases that I couldn't get to while I was in LA, when my assistant lets me know that I have a visitor. I'm happy to know Aubrey missed me too and came to visit. It has to be him.
Then my door opened.
"What the fuck are you doing here Melo. I told you to leave me alone." I said sternly as I saw him walk in.
He completely ignored me and sat down in the chair in front of my desk.

"I see you out here with ol boy. You know you mines right?" He said with a smirk.
"That sounds like something you should be saying to your wife. You remember her, the woman you lied to me about and told me you were separated from and divorcing."
"Baby don't be like that."
"I'm not your baby Melo. We fucked. That's it. We had a sexual relationship, nothing more nothing less." I set him straight.
"Don't do that, you know I wanted more with you. You know I wanted to be with you!" He raised his voice slightly.
"Need I remind you that we're in my place of business. Keep it cute. And Melo we couldn't possibly have been more, you're completely incapable of being faithful and I am not home to community dick."
"You know I would've changed for you. I still will. Just don't give yourself to ol boy." He said.
"Please Melo, 'ol boy' is my boyfriend, my whole man. You're too late. Just go." I told him.
"Imma fight for you Lee." That was his nickname for me. He got up and kissed my forehead before leaving.
I met Carmelo when I was pretty young, probably about 18. I had been living in New York for about a year when I first met him, he wanted my number but I didn't give it to him. I was just focused on raising and providing for Imani at the time. The second time I met him, was two years later when I was working with Lebron and he had a meeting in the same building as us. He waited until my meeting was done and asked me to go out with him. I agreed but later explained to him that I wasn't interested in a relationship. We came to the agreement to have a sex only arrangement. So that's what we did, for the past 13 years.
When he was with his wife we were off, and when he wasn't we were on. They had a rocky relationship anyway and I did my best to make sure I was never with him when they were together.
I know it sounds crazy. And I know I should have told Aubrey already, but I don't know how he'll take it.
It was 13 years on and off and it was a mission trying not to catch feelings, but he hasn't always treated me the best so I'm happy and in a good place with Aubrey so I could care less about Melo right now.
