Be Mine Again

Couple days later...

Leahs pov

"Stop!" I laugh. Angelo kiss my neck and tickles me with his beard.

I try to move away but he has me pinned down on the bed.

"Babe! Please!" I yell and laugh more. He pulls away smiling.

"You don't like the beard?" He asks. "Its not that—I'm just not used to it." I said and push his hair back.

"Have you only been with women?" He asks.

"Yup. Only women." I said and caress his face.

He looks at me intently. "Then what makes me different?" He asks.

I bite my lip and think. I don't know. I've only ever been with women. That's why I'm taking it slow with him. If he were a women I've probably would've slept with him already or maybe it's because I'm still hung up on Jennifer.

Maybe it's too soon to call it quits. My moms probably right. Maybe I got bored or something but it felt like all we did was fight and make up then more problems came.

"Who knows." I shrug.

"Am I supposed to be your test experiment?" He asks and gets up slightly.

I grab his arms and pull him back. "It's not like that." I said.

"Is that why you won't have sex with me?"

"I guess so, I've never been that way with a man. I don't know if I can." I said.

"Does that mean we aren't going to have sex?"

"Well—yes. I mean—not anytime soon."

"Do you plan on getting back with her?" He asks and rest his palms on my stomach and looks at me.

I look at him and shrug. "I don't know."

"What do you think we are?" He asks. "God you ask a lot of questions." I sigh.

"We are just friends getting to know each other."

His expression changes. "Friends? That's all I'm here for?"

"I'm still legally married! I have a daughter! She's already upset about me and her mom separating. If she finds out that I'm already moving on, it'll break her." I said.

"I don't care that you have a daughter, I'll be glad to be in her life. I already told you that." He said putting a hand on my cheek. I push his hand away and get up making him get off me.

"That's not all it is. Jennifer doesn't know I'm seeing someone else. I don't even know if she'll let you see her." I said.

"So what? You're her parent too. I can see her if you let me."

"No, because if the roles we're reversed then I would like Jen to respect my word. So if Jen doesn't want you seeing her then I have no choice but respect that."

"Leah, I don't get you. One moment you want us to be together. And the next you don't. Right now it sounds like you want to get back together with her." He complains.

"I told you before you got yourself involved that this was gonna be hectic." I said crossing my arms.

"I'm down to be here for you anyways. That's the man I am. You just have to give me a chance." He said getting up and holding my hands.
