The Bridge

Chapter 34

Aris

Aurelia and I had finally made it back to her place in Grosse Pointe from furniture shopping to find Mark still packing her things. Aside from furniture, the majority of the main areas were packed up.

"Wow well you made some progress didn't you?" I smiled innocently at him.

"Yeah, Mark, like...I mean thanks for helping but I could have done it." Aurelia added.

"Ain't no thang...besides the sooner you out of here, the quicker me and the guys can move down." He winked, I would like to think it was directed at me.

"True!" Aurelia headed towards her bedroom, once she made it to the hall where she was out of Marks view but still in my own she spun around throwing her thumbs up for encouragement before she disappeared. I laughed and shook my head.

"What's so funny?" Mark pushed his glasses up his nose, eyeing my body up and down.

"Lia..."

I walked over to where he was seated on the floor packing up Aurelia'scd collection. I don't know why that girl just don't buy her music on itunes like the rest of society.

"She funny like that? I ain't really have the chance to get to know her with all the shit goin down."

I sat down in front of him, the moving box located between us and began placing cds inside of it.

"Yeah! She is riot once she has gotten to know you and that weekend was crazy." I nodded in agreement.

"Ayo, where you learn to fight like that?!" He busted out laughing, "man you strong as fuck, I couldn't get a good grip on you fo shit!"

I dropped my head and smiled wide, "I don't know, it's like instinct. I can be classy, but when that button of mine is pushed... I start swinging."

I could feel his eyes on me so I looked up to meet his gaze, "well remind me to not get on your bad side."

"I'm sure I will have no problem letting you know!" I giggled.

His voice turned seductive, "well...in the mean time. What I gotta do to get on your good side?"

I bit my lower lip in response, blushing.

Aubrey

"Baby!"

"In the bathroom!" I heard her yell from my position in the hall. I headed in her direction and stopped at the bathroom door.

"You aint in there taking a shit, is you?"

"No, nigga!" My cure to let myself in.

I laughed, "Whatchu got goin' on in here?" I wiggled my brows at the sight of her in the shower. You could see her silhouette perfectly behind the fogged glass.

I could hear a faint giggle, "Would you like to join me?".

"Nah, I think I'm just gonna watch the show." I hopped on top of the bathroom vanity, watching as she did her thing. She got sexy with it when she bent over to wash her legs, "Mmmmhmmm", I mumbled cocking my head to the side as she slowly dragged her loofah sponge up her right leg, bending over once more to repeat the action on her left leg.

"So what business took you away from me?" She stepped back into glass, her ass cheeks becoming visible.

"Nothing major, just a meeting about the store. Thinking of opening a second one given the success of the first," I reached at the nape of my neck and pulled my shirt off, then removed my shoes. Hopping down off the vanity I dropped the rest of my clothing in one hit.
