Tempted

Chapter 1

Nia

I woke up to shouting, which sounded like my 13 year old daughter Ariana & my 17 year old son Jayden arguing like a typical morning in the Perez household.

I threw the comforter off of me and stormed in the direction where I heard the shouting.

"What the hell is all that screaming?" I yelled.

"Sorry mama, Jayden took my phone and texted my crush pretending he was me." Ariana folded her arms and mean mugged Jayden.

"Jayden, how old are you again?" I looked over at him, irritated as hell.

"17, ain't my fault she can't take a joke." Jayden chuckled.

"Boy grow the hell up, just for that you can't use the car this weekend." I scoffed and poked his chest with my index finger.

Ariana giggled as she snatched her phone away from Jayden and ran back to her room.

"What ma? You can't do that, I have a date this weekend." Jay followed me to my room.

"Like hell I can, Find a way to get there."

Jayden huffed and puffed as he slammed the door to his room.

"Boy don't be slamming doors around here in my house, uh uh." I yelled.

I heard the front door open, and tiptoeing up the steps. The door opened & in came Mario, my husband.

A small smile appeared on my face as he made his way over to me.

"Goodmorning baby." He pecked my lips.

"Goodmorning babe!" I wrapped my arms around his torso.

"I bought some breakfast back, just to give you a break from cooking." Mario pecked my forehead.

"You're so sweet." I licked my lips as I made my way to the bathroom to brush my teeth and wash my face.

Mario followed me into the bathroom, he wrapped his arms around my waist and planted soft kisses around my neck.

"Baby, not right now." I spit some toothpaste into the sink and rinsed my mouth with some Listerine.

Mario chuckled as he watched my face expressions change through the mirror.

"I'll let you get yourself together while I go tell the kids about breakfast." Rio pecked my neck again before he left out.

I undressed myself, my panties are damn near soaked from Mario kissin' on my neck like that. Mario and I haven't made love in months since he been so busy with his new job. Mario is a business man, he owns his own restaurant.

As a wife I respect Mario spending so much time with his job. It gets lonely after awhile and I get bored when I'm not working, but I love my husband.

After my lovely shower I moisturized my body in cocoa butter & threw on some black leggings & a oversized t-shirt.

I headed downstairs towards the kitchen. Ariana was on her phone texting, & Mario was stuffing his face.

"Food smells lovely. Where's Jay?" I furrowed an eyebrow as I grabbed my food.

"That boy has a terrible attitude, he can come eat whenever he gets his act together." Mario sternly said.

I pursed my lips and shook my head. Jay is to old to be acting like this.

I sat down at the table across from Mario & next to Ariana.

"You know we have a new neighbor?" Mario asked taking a bite into his crispy bacon.

"We do?" I began to slice my pancakes.

"Yeah, he looks pretty young. I hope he isn't a hoodlum like our last neighbor." Mario joked.

I busted out laughing as I poured some syrup over my pancakes.

"Stop it, I should bake some cookies or something and go introduce myself."

Mario gave me a weird look. "So you just going to do it the old traditional way, huh?"

I nodded my head. "You know I'm old school boo, don't get it twist it." I smirked.

Mario laughed as he finished up his food.

"Ariana put your phone away, this is family time." Mario sternly said.

Ariana sighed as she sat her phone down on the table & picked up her fork.

"I know that's not an attitude young lady?" Mario side eyed ari.

"No daddy, I don't have an attitude." Ariana softly said.

I looked up from my food and smiled at Mario, he's always been this way. Mario takes family time serious, and I love that about him.

"How's work coming along?" I asked Rio.

"Pretty good, it gets stressful trying to manage the whole restaraunt but it's my dream." Mario looked down at his watch. "Speaking of work, I have to go soon baby." Rio got up from the table and pecked my cheek.

I followed Rio upstairs. "Babe, a quickie?" I nibbled on his earlobe.

"I'm tired baby, let me take a nap. Some other time..." Rio laid across the bed.

I slowly nodded my head as I watched him dose off. I was expecting that answer, but it was only worth a try right?

I decided to go downstairs & bake some cookies, I was serious on introducing myself to this new neighbor Rio was talking about.

30 minutes later after I finished baking the chocolate chip cookies, I wrapped them with some aluminum foil.

I headed over next door to introduce myself to our new neighbor. I heard loud music playing, maybe rio was right about another hoodlum living here.

I knocked on the door a couple of times and a blessing answered the door. A tall light skinned tatted young man with pink plump lips.

I stared in a daze, checking him out which I shouldn't be doing.

"Heeeellooo." He waved his hand in my face to get my attention.

"I'm so sorry, I'm your neighbor Nia." I held my hand out for him to shake And he looked down at my hand and laughed.

"What's funny?" I gave him a confused look.

"Why you being so formal with me. Christopher, call me Chris." He licked his pink plump lips causing me to stare.

"Chris, I made you some cookies. I hope you like chocolate chip." I handed him the plate.

"I love cookies. Especially snicker doodles." Chris bit his bottom lip as he looked me up and down. "I eat them all the time." He smirked.

I felt my heart beating fast and my panties becoming moist. Is this young man flirting with me? Or either my mind is in the gutter.

"I-I got to go Chris. It was nice meeting you." I slowly backed away.

"Yeah, you too miss Nia." Chris flashed me his pearly white teeth. "Thanks again for the cookies, I can't wait to taste your cookies." He put emphasis on "your."

I jogged back over to my house as I opened the door, I quickly threw my back against the door to shut it. My chest heaved up and down from what just happened.

I believe God set me up with this one.😩
