What Happens In Vegas Stays in Vegas...

The Honeymoon Phase Is Over! Pt. 20 Pt. 1

After their reuniting rendevous in Vegas,  Dominique had flown home with Bruno back to his house in L.A. She waited at Bruno's house for the car to pick her up, as Bruno had some business meetings to attend to. He gave her his card so she could go shopping to buy herself a new dress ( to replace the one he destroyed in Vegas), because he was taking her to dinner later. When it arrived she got in and instructed the driver to take her to one of the best dress shops on Rodeo Drive.

She looked around and found a simple, sexy yet classy one to replace the dress. She bought a few more sexy dresses as well. He told her to get whatever she wanted and the cost didn't matter. So she decided to indulge herself. As she walked around trying on the other dresses, a handsome man was watching her as she tried them on. He watched as her curves perfectly silhouetted each dress she tried on. As she skillfully twirled in the mirror he couldn't help but admire her feminine prowess. She strolled to the counter he walked over with cool confidence and complimented her. She blushed as his handsome eyes scanned her body. He tried to strike up a conversation with her as he watched her take out Bruno's Black card.  But Dominique spurred his flirtateous conversation. He was relentless and she finally acknowledged his compliments once more. Seeing this as his segueway into a conversation again, he opened the door for her as she exited the store and stepped into her waiting car.

Thinking to himself she was somebody he wanted to get to know, he followed her with his eyes as he watched the car cruise down Rodeo Drive and she got out once more at a shoe store. The man quickly caught up with her and began talking to her again, surprised to see him once more she blushed again and asked him was he stalking her. Meanwhile unbeknownst to her Bruno was on Rodeo Drive with Phil,  they left their meeting and he decided to get some new sunglasses. As he and Phil left the sunglass store they saw Dominique and the man. Bruno stopped dead in his tracks as he watched Dominique and the man engage in what looked to him as intimate conversation. Although Dominique was nicely telling the man she had a boyfriend, Bruno saw their interaction very differently. Phil recognizing that familiar look on Bruno's face urged them to leave. Bruno after glaring at them for what seemed minutes not seconds reluctantly got in his car. Phil volunteered to drive as his friend slid over to the passenger side. Dominique was in the car as the man talked to her through the window. As she let him down gently. He still offered her his card. She took it as Bruno's car drove away. Inside the car Bruno sat still and motionless. His almond brown's welled up with tears of anger. Phil tried to assure him that it was harmeless flirting. Bruno cut him off saying "No! There is no harmless flirting man! Would u like seein your girl doin that shit?!" Phil remained quiet the rest of the ride unsure of what to say to smooth things over. He liked Dominique but he knew Bruno didnt play when it came to something like this. He knew Dominique could be in a world of trouble.

Phil dropped himself at home and asked Bruno did he want to come hang for a while. Bruno slid back in the driver's seat and emphatically said "No. I gotta take care of this!". Phil urged him to hear Dominique out before accusing her. Bruno grunted and sped off for his house. To make matters worse Dominique wasn't back yet. So Bruno had more time to sit in the house and seethe. The sun had began to set as the car pulled up in the driveway, the house appeared dark. An eery feeling came over Dominique but she shook it off as she helped the driver with her bags. She entered the house and called out to Bruno. Informing the driver he could just leave the bags at the door, he left her alone inside the house. She didn't see Bruno's car and figured he must have ran late at his meeting. She took the bags upstairs to the bedroom. The light was off, she flicked on the light and there sat Bruno looking dead at her. She screamed, completely startled. His eyes were red and he looked like he'd been crying. He asked where she was today. Disarmed by his questions she reminded him where she was. She handed him his Black card and began unpacking her bags to show him what she bought. She felt uneasy as his eyes scanned her face and body in an unsettling manner. She knew something was wrong, but she continued talking as if she didn't.

He cut her off and told her "I saw you today baby". The tone of his voice was cold and emotionless. Dominique knew he'd seen her talking to the man. As she began to explain what happened. Bruno said again louder "I SAW YOU!" Dominique defenseless assured him nothing was going on that the man pursued her and she told him she had a boyfriend. "Bruno I didn't do..." Bruno cut her off again and said "NO YOU DIDN'T! YOU TALKED TO HIM AS IF YOU DIDN'T HAVE A BOYFRIEND!" Dominique tried to calm Bruno down, by assuring him that she told the man she did. Bruno snatched her purse and retrieved the card the man had given her. Then said "THEN WHY THE FUCK DIDN'T YOU THROW HIS CARD AWAY! YOU GON CALL HIM?!" Dominique tried to assure him she wasn't. That the man was looking at her when she tried on her dresses for him. Bruno went ballistic. "THAT MOTHERFUCKA SAW YO ASS UNDRESSED?!!!"" A COMPLETE STRANGER?! ARE YOU FUCKIN KIDDING ME?!"" YOU THINK I'M STUPID?!" Dominique was helpless against Bruno's words because it DID look bad. She couldn't understand how something so innocent came off as so dirty. Bruno continued screaming. "YOU ARE MY GIRL! I'M THE ONLY ONE SUPPOSED TO SEE YOU HALF NAKED! I DON'T GIVE A FUCK WHO THE OTHER PERSON IS! NO OTHER MAN SUPPOSED TO SEE YOU! YOU'RE MINE! WHAT'S MINE IS ONLY MINE!" He then said "GET THE FUCK OUT!!!" Dominique shouted back saying: NO! I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING WRONG!" He then took her sexy dresses and shoved them back in the bag, leaving one out. He then said "Aight. Put this on!" He commanded her to put it on.

Instructing her to model the dress the same way she did for the man. Dominique tried to explain that she was trying on the dress and the man saw her. Bruno refused to listen. Dominique reasoned "When have I ever given you a reason to doubt me?!" Bruno motioned for her to put the dress on. She couldn't believe how callous he was being, but she modeled it for him, taking some part of the blame for the way the sitiation happened. He then instructed her to take the dress off and let her know how much she hurt and embarrased him. Standing naked in front of her lover completely vulnerable she felt tears well in her eyes. Bruno looked at her as if she were nothing. He was hurting deep but refused to show her, he then stood up and walked over to her touching her nakedness so tenderly with his thick fingers. Running his fingers up and down her curves. Her nipples stiffened. His hot breath on her neckline made her tingle, he grazed her ass with his fingertips as he gave a cheek a hard squeeze. Whispering in her ear..."I want to fuck you so bad.... Such a shame. You were mine. All mine. Now....you're not". She said "But baby I didn't do anything! I didn't do anything!". But Bruno wasn't listening, instead he took all the shopping bags and left the house, leaving her to stand in the middle of the bedroom stark naked....
