CIRCUMSTANCES MADE ME WHAT I AM

PLAYBOY

TAMARA'S POV

I got dressed in a simple blue jeans matching Polo blouse and flip-flops. It was my time of the months and I really just needed to talk.

I arrived at the gate of a large apartment complex. I can't believe he's been this near all along, just five minutes drive if I pass my gate heading east. I called to inform him I had arrived. He gave me instructions where to park and how to find his apartment.

As soon as the call ended the gate began opening. I did as I was told and upon reaching his door I knocked. When he opened the door I smelled fried chicken as well as some sauce that had my mouth watering.

"Hello" he greeted me, pulled me in for an embrace then invited me in.
He was in his comfort zone. He had on a plain black T-Shirt and jeans barefooted.
He smelled heavenly as usual of caramel. Like something to eat.

He closed the door and signaled for me to follow. He lead me to his kitchen where I saw pots on the stove. He offered me a seat. I sat on a stool at island in the kitchen as he went to stir his sauce. 

Bwoy can cook and all these things

"I have Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Blanc or you can have some of what I'm having" Pointing to a glass on the counter next to him.

"What is it you're having" I asked.

" Appleton VX and Cranberry juice"

"Look at you to nuh. Start going with the finer things in life, wines and all start drink rum" smiling at him.

"I'll have the same as you"

He smiled causing me to look away, pretending as if taking in the view of his place. Even though it is indeed nice but his lips made me blush. From where I sat I could see it was all of two bedrooms living, dining and a small balcony to the back. It is elegantly furnished as well. It's hard not to be cozy in this place.

"Dinner is finished so we could go sit out on the balcony and talk, or eat first if u wish" he suggested, while pouring me a drink and placing it in my  hand.

Ushering me out to the balcony, we could see the sun setting, the sky was orange-pink in colour, like in those romantic movies.

"So what's on your mind?" He broached the elephant in the room....or on the balcony so to speak.

Looking into his eyes "I owe you an apology Mark. I was selfish and didn't like how things went down and are between us "

"You could have fooled me girl"

" You're young, you can be the Playboy if you wish. Honestly when I realized what an ass I was I didn't know how to apologize. So I avoided you instead. Childish I know" I shifted my gaze.

While saying all this, my eyes were fixated on the sky but I could feel when he moved closer and my body tingled.

I felt his hand on mine taking my glass,  then his gentle touch on my chin, turning my face towards him.

"Is that an apology ?" He asked searching my eyes with his.

All I could do was nod. That's when he kissed me, deep and sensual. I felt the palm of his hand on the side of my face. His scent filled my nostrils, intoxicating me.

All my switches were on....why did it have to be that time of month.

FUCK!!!

I broke our kiss, using all my will power.

"Mark I'm here to talk, this can't go any further"
He then gave me back my glass and headed inside leaving me.

I could see he was disappointed but not angry.
