DOMINIC It's been about two weeks since I last talked to Anastasia in a normal conversation. The last time I seen her outside of publicity stuff was when I caught her with her ex boyfriend.
Even though we aren't officially together just yet, I had to distance myself. Just a little bit. I wasn't trying to end up the same way I did with Alexis.
Today, we just announced our joint tour that we're doing together starting next week. We announced it on The Ellen Show.
"Come on, Dom! You really are just gonna ignore unless it has to do with business?"
Anastasia questioned as we were now backstage. I looked at her in annoyance.
"Why don't you go talk to Meech? He seems to be keeping you great company while I'm away."
"Dominic, please don't be like that. It wasn't even like that, you got it all wrong! I hadn't seen Meech in years, and he just came in to say hi to me. He wasn't doing anything wrong —"
"Kissing you on the cheek while you're talking to another guy isn't wrong? You don't find it wrong because you don't consider us official yet? Is that what it is?"
"Dominic —"
"We both admitted our feelings for each other, Anastasia. It wasn't just me, but you did, too. And YOU did it first. I'm not trying to end up like I did when I was with Alexis. I care for you and like you a lot, but I won't allow you to hurt me like everyone else did."
"You acted like I kissed him back! I didn't do anything to entertain him to make him think that I wanted him back!"
"Do you know you're the only fucking thing that has been on my mind these last two weeks? Every single time that you would text or call me, it would kill me to have to ignore you. I want you to myself, Stasia. I don't to share you with anyone else! And until you understand that, I can't entertain you romantically like I want to."
"I haven't been seeing anyone else besides you! I've been to myself these past two weeks you've been blocking me out. Why can't you see that I like you like crazy too?!"
Interrupting our conversation, Speed then came backstage where we were.
"Maria and I booked you two to be performers for this weekend's Beach Party Bash out in Puerto Rico. We have to get you both on a flight as soon as possible. We have to have you there by tonight."
"Okay. We got you."
"Good. Meet us out in the car in five minutes."
Speed walked away, leaving the two of us alone once again. Anastasia tried gripping onto my hand, but I snatched it away quickly.
"Don't be like this, Dom. Please. This is a blessing in disguise. We have the weekend together in Puerto Rico."
"This is for business. We're doing events that we're getting paid for. We won't be alone."
"Dominic David Fike, I'm sorry. Okay? I'm sorry for letting Meech in my house, I'm sorry for letting him kiss my cheek. I'm sorry. But I don't want Meech anymore. I want YOU."
As hard as it was ignoring Anastasia the way I have been these last two weeks, I had to do it in order to stand my ground. I shook my head and looked at her seriously.
"Come on. We gotta head out to the car to Speed and Maria."
"Are you seriously gonna hold this against me for however long? There had been times where I watched you talk it up with Alexis! But I said nothing!"
"That's different, and you know that. I was telling her to get lost. Because I been knew that I wanted to take you seriously."
"What do you think I was doing with Meech?! I literally told him that I was seeing you! He thought you were the one that hurt me, but I told him it was Jerald! If I didn't want you, I could've let him think that it was you!"
"Let's just go, Anastasia. We have to meet them out in the car. We don't have all day to be talking about this. We still have to go home and pack for this weekend."
I quickly started to make my way to the car, Anastasia following me seconds after. As much as I wanna give in, I just can't. At least not right at this second.
