My hands are shaking and I can't stop them. It's honestly like I'm having an outer body experience as Nic speeds down the highway. My heart is racing like fucking crazy. I'm so hot, that I may be burning a hole through this seat. Shit I may be overheating and I can't stop my hands from fucking shaking.

I close my eyes and take deeper breaths to try and subside the upcoming panic attack. I lean back in my seat and think to earlier.

I can't stand that man. Has me looking down at my phone smiling from the conversation we just had. We talk everyday but it's been almost two weeks since I've seen him. Since we had a face to face conversation or ate together or.. Touched. It's crazy the thought of being touched still repulses me but not with Coby. Whenever he holds my hand it feels like all my problems could melt away. Whenever he hugs me it feels like the first time I stayed at Nia's house times two. The warmth, the security, the muscles.. Have me ready to stay in those arms forever. When we kiss....The first time we kissed I died and went to HEAVEN!!!! I know God was shocked to see my soul up there but he should have never sent me an angel. Lawd, have mercy. Kissing this man feels like being on a strict diet for six months and then finally biting into your favorite dessert.

Fuck that diet

But it's not just that, it's the conversations we have. The knowledge and laughter we share. Play fighting and keeping each other entertained. It's him still working to make sure I smile. It makes my chest swell with happiness and warmth and all these emotions I've never felt before. I feel like I'm...

Like I said I'm in deep

I tuck my phone in my pocket and walk back into the living room where Nicole is waiting for me. We decided to have a girls night since she's been up under Jermiah for forever. I guess we've both been stuck on stupid.

She has a sheet mask on her face as she sips on her glass of wine and eats the caramel popcorn. We were binge watching lifetime movies and I painted her toes before I stepped away.

"What took you so long?"

"I was on the phone with-"

"-your baby daddy?"
