PREVIOUSLY ON MY LOVE...
Yazzmine
We've been at the dinner party for an hour now even though we were late showing up. It's so beautiful here, like whoever decorated this place sure did meet the expectation of top notch.
For our main course we had filet Mignon, at first I didn't even know what that was, classy name but all they had to do was call it steak man. I didn't care too much for it but it was okay.
I was standing beside Lamonte while he talked to one of his old colleagues, he said he didn't want to be rude but I told him it was fine. While standing there I felt someone staring at me from the side, I turned my head a little to not make it too obvious, it was some woman, caramel skin, green eyes, up hair do, and a long red fitted gown. She soon walked passed me but not before giving me a stank smirk then looking at Lamonte.
"Please don't pay her any mind" He said in my ear.
I looked over at him kind of confused.
"Um..okay?" I said.
"She's an ex" He said, while we sat back down at our reserved table.
"Oh, no wonder why"I said, chuckling a little.
"That was weird I know but that definitely won't happen again please forgive her and me" He said.
I just looked at him and smiled.
"No apology needed, this isn't my first time seeing that look and it most likely won't be the last" I said, taking a sip of wine from my glass.
He laughed a little.
"I know you didn't ask but we broke up because I thought she was the one I wanted to spend the rest of my life with but, I was so wrong. She didn't want to settle down, she didn't want the same things I wanted and I understood that" He said.
I took his hand in mines and looked at him.
"Sometimes the people we tend to be in love with don't always see what we see and yes, sometimes it does hurt but even if we love them sometimes we have to let them go in order to let God give us what we really need" I said.
He nodded his head and smiled a little.
"I see that now, God doesn't fail. Thank you" He said.
"Amen to that and always" I said.
Out if no where...
"A brotha didn't enjoy that filet Mignon..I definitely will be hitting McDonald's after this" Lamonte said laughing.
I laughed.

After the dinner we went to McDonald's and sat in the parking lot for a while then we both decided it was time to head home.
We were now sitting in the front of my yard.
"I wanted to say thank you for um, inviting me to be your date tonight. I had fun" I said.
He smiled.
"I should be the one saying thank you, I had fun too, maybe too much" He said laughing.
"It's crazy how your friends thought that we were a couple, when we're really just friends, that's crazy" I said.
"It is yo" He said.
We both started laughing..
Laughing hard..
Laughing until it hurt..
Laughing until we laughed no more..
Silence..
We looked into each others eyes..
Leaned into one another..
Next thing I knew, his hand was on the side of face and my hand was on the back of his neck..
We..
We kissed.
After the kiss ended "wow" was all we could both say.
"I'm sorry" I said..kind of embarrassed.
He looked at me for a moment and then stared straight ahead.
"I'm not" He said.
I was confused.
"Huh?" I said.
"I'm not sorry that we kissed, each other" He said.
Yazzmine time to be an adult.
"Well if I'm being completely honest then I'm not either, it was great to be honest" I said.
"I'm glad we came to conclusion on that together" He said.
"Where do we even go from here ?" I asked. Kinda hoping that this would last forever.
"Listen, I don't really know but what I do know is that I want you"He said.
I smiled.
"I want you too".
