Murder She Wrote

45

The day after Valentine's Day Joe woke up seeing Melissa awake. He realized he was in her bed and she have slept in his arms. She kisses him good morning.
Melissa, "Breakfast will be ready in a little bit."
Joe showers and brushes his teeth the throws on sweats that he left and Melissa never returned after washing them. Melissa held onto Joe as he hugged her from behind. After breakfast, Melissa, "Last night was fun. Glad we got clarity."
Joe, "We can start the post Valentine's Day."
Melissa wraps her arms around Joe's neck, "We could specially since it's just sex and there's nothing there."

Joe was taken a back and sits on the arm of the couch and Melissa stands in between his legs. Joe, "Since, when did we start having sex with no meaning."
Melissa, "I told you that last night before we did anything."
Joe, "You got me hard then told me."
Melissa, "I didn't do that. You did that all on your own and clearly you were playing off the swellness of your penis so why can't I play off the wetness of my vagina?"
Joe, "There you go with those games. At this stage I'm not into playing games. My feelings ain't a game, I'm not one."
Melissa, "I'm not trying to play you."
Joe, "Let's take this back. You got pissed at me and turned me in because that very reason. And just last night it was I love you and let's get married." 
Melissa didn't know what to say.
Joe, "But it's cool though. You made it clear."
Melissa, "Don't be mad or upset like it's not time for us again and you're just being typical paranoid Joe."
Joe, "Oh, and you love to egg stuff on and play the victim in front of everyone. You just call me when you finally receive an Oscar for you performance."
Melissa was stuck and shocked as Joe walked out after saying what he said.
Melissa, "Wow."
Simee, "Hey was that dad?"
Melissa, "Yeah."
Simee, "This early? Did he and did yall"
Melissa, "Mind your business."

Yasmine FaceTime Joe.
Yasmine, "Hey brother."
Joe dryly, "Sup Yas."
Yasmine, "Crap. What happened?"
Joe, "Nothing. We had a great time. We had sex and she said it meant nothing. It took me a back but it's cool. I'm jogging now. Just trying to keep my hands and not do nothing crazy."
Yasmine, "Good for you. That's messed up though. But that's yall business."
Joe, "It'll work itself out."
Yasmine, "Well I just wanted to call to check on you and tell you the doors are unlocked because I knew you didn't come home so I figured you were with Melissa. So what did yall do before sex?"
Joe, "I'll send you pictures."
Yasmine, "Oh my gosh. There's photos, yayyy!"
Joe, "Yeah. And we took Valentine's Day family photos the day before." As Joe looks up he see Tevin jogging on the same trail as him. "I know I said what I said about keeping my hands but---
Yasmine, "You don't. Plenty of that will get done when the time is right."
Tevin circles back around and accuses Joe of kidnapping his cousin.
Joe, "Go head bro."
Tevin, "Oh and my people are looking into you."
Joe, "Don't need to play hide and go seek, I'm right here and ready. I stay ready."
Tevin, "How about when you let down your guard while playing with your children at the park. Or when your daughter, what's her name Riley go to the same gifted school as my little cousin and they're real good friends."
Joe attacked Tevin and broke his neck with his bare hands and left him on the trails, "Talk now."
