Ours For The Taking

chapter 28: behind the scenes

( THREE WEEKS LATER, NICKI'S POV)

"So you know when we were shooting the My Nigga remix and Meek was there?"

"Yea. Why?"

"After we were done shooting, um, we uh.."

Sherika gasped. "You didn't."

"We kinda did."

"Oh my god.. You cheated on Safaree?" She sat back onto the headboard. I looked down. "No. that's when our arguments started getting really bad.. I gave up. And I was telling Meek because he's such a good listener, and he really cares. And it just happened."

"How was it?"

"Amazing."

"I guess...you should tell Safaree."

"No, are you crazy? We haven't talked in like a month, and I don't want to after our little affair. Especially after his wannabe girlfriend Sophia Body wants to be involved in everything. She'll expose me."

"Why are you just now telling me this?"

"Because...I thought you would get mad."

"Of course I'm mad! Safaree is a great person! I can't believe you would hurt him like that!"

"He hurt me.."

"I can't believe you Nicki...wow..." She got up. I started tearing up, and she told me to stop crying. Meek walked in. "What's wrong?"

"Nicki told me about your little sex escapade when Nicki was with Safaree. You knew she was with her." She shook her head. Sherika walked out and Meek sat down by me. "I'm sorry.."

"Why baby?"

"I didn't think she would be mad."

I put my head in his chest and he held me. He kissed my head. The touch of his skin on mine just made me feel comfortable. "Don't let me go, okay?" I whispered. "Okay."

He turned the TV on and we sat there like that for a few hours. "You feel better baby?"

"I feel so bad. I regret doing what we did."

"Aren't you the person who said not to regret something that once made you smile?"

I nodded. "I don't regret you.. Rihmeek. I regret forgetting about Safaree. What we had. And it was ruined because of fame. I fucking hate it."

"Do you wish you guys were still together?"

I shook my head. "No, I'm so much happier now, that relationship was bad for me..." My voice trailed off, because I didn't know what to say. "I love you Rihmeek."
"I love you too baby ."

I got up from his chest and stood up. "Where you going baby?"

"No where."

"Look at that ass."

I laughed and sat down. "Shut up Rihmeek."

"Make me."

I sat down on his lap and started kissing him. He moved his hands down my waist. "Guys. I don't want to watch live porn right now." Sherika walked in. I got up. "Can we talk?"

I nodded. "I'll be back Rihmeek." I turned my head and looked at him. "Okay."
I walked out of the room with Sherika and we went downstairs. She sat down on the couch and patted the space beside her so I could sit too.

"I'm sorry I overreacted about that. I guess I could have been nicer about it. I just know how much Safaree cares about you. And the fact that you would betray him like that angers me." She says.

I nodded. "I understand. I just knew I would have to tell you someday. And I know how much he cares about me and at that time, I wasn't thinking. And I'm sorry."

"You're saying sorry to the wrong person."

I got up and looked at my phone which was in my hand like always. "Call Safaree." I say, holding the home button.

"Calling Safaree..." Siri said back.

It rang 3 times and he picked up.

"Safaree Samuels, who's speaking?"

"Stop playing."

He chucked. "Hey Nic, what's wrong?"

I need to tell you something important."

"I'm listening." He says. "I hooked up with meek in the downfall of us."

"Okay."

"You're not mad?" I ask. "Should I be? I can't do nothing about it. And we're not together anymore so oh well. What's up?"

"Um, nothing, just talking with Sherika. What about you?"

"About to go ride around in Brooklyn."

"Well, I gotta go." I say. "Okay. Bye."

"Be careful on your motorcycle. Bye." I hung up. "He wasn't mad. He just brushed it off." I say, turning to Sherika. She shrugged, "You're lucky you're dealing with a nice guy."

I nodded.
