The Habits of My heart

Chapter 15

Reggie asked a few of his men to watch after the club before making way to his green Ford Zodiac . He pulled out of the back alley of the club and sped off . He turned up the dial to his radio as ' Thirteenth hour' by Timi Yuro played . His window slightly rolled down as he ashed his cigarette at the top of the cracked open  window .

The destination was the only thing on his mind accompanied with dirty thoughts of course . He hadn't truly realized how much he craved Monica . Her touch . How she would look with her plump lips wrapped around his—Reggie slammed on the brakes as a figure appeared out of nowhere . Reggie hopped out of the car with mixed emotions of rage and nervousness . It was foggy from where it had rained so the figure was yet to be revealed .

The fog slowly began dissipating , showing the person to be a woman . She was propping her arms on the hood of the car with her back facing him . Her perfume made way to Reggie's nose reminding him of a certain someone . His eyes flickered towards the woman fast , inspecting the woman's natural curves . He knew exactly who he bumped into—-as if his thoughts summoned her; it was Monica .

" Are you hurt ?" Reggie rushed towards Monica and gripped her by her waist turning her to face him . He was taken aback by her appearance . Though she was dressed up like she usually was , her face was pale and had smeared mascara an eyeliner on her eyes . She had been crying .

Assuming it was due to him almost killing her with his car, Reggie engulfed Monica into a tight hug . " I'm so sorry , Moni. I didn't see you at all . It was so foggy out. I was on my way to see you and—fuck I'm just so sorry ."

Monica let herself melt into the hug and started to cry . Another car was coming , it's beaming headlights starling them both . Reggie jumped out of the way still holding onto Monica . He opened his passenger door to her. " C'mon, Moni. Let's get you home ."

It was a quite ride back to Monica's place . Even though she was clearly in disarray she invited Reggie inside for tea . She changed into a nightgown and started the kettle while Reggie sat at the dining table unable to keep his eyes off of her . Though, it wasn't in a lustful  way but more concerned.

" I confronted Ronnie." Monica said in almost a whisper . She leaned against her counter top with her arms folded . Her hair was in a messy updo opposed to her usual pinned curls .

Reggie knitted his brows together unsure of what she  could have confronted him on . " About?"

" What you said ." Monica looked at Reggie almost annoyed . " About him stepping out on me, remember?"

" Oh, right . Monica, about that -I" Reggie was interrupted by the high pitched whistling of the kettle .

" He admitted to it . Easy to say he didn't hold back how he felt or what he didn't feel ."  Monica poured two cups of tea . " Just thought you should know because you keep giving me these pitiful looks ."

" I almost killed you ."

" Death would've been kinder than Ronnie Kray ."

Reggie winced at her words . He knew he should be flying to his brothers defense but he could only fight so many battles of his . What Ronnie did to Monica was wrong an as of this sensitive moment he couldn't find the right words; not words to help his brothers case anyways .

" You said you was coming to see me . Why?" Monica spoke up .

" I don't know if this is the right time to tell you .." Reggie scooted his chair closer to Monica . " But I came to tell you what I'm feeling and what I'm thinking ."

" I'm all ears ." She tried giving a smile but it was weak .

" Since Frances passed away I have had this emptiness inside me . An emptiness that I've lived with since I was a lad . An emptiness only she was able to fill . But then I met you and got to know you , Monica . I know it sounds horrible but I can't get you out of my head . It's like your burrowed in there so deep you're all I think about ."

Monica looked surprised . To have one brother basically avoid his feelings for her and then have the other have no shame in saying what he felt was inordinate. She too knew that she had been feeling similar feelings towards Reggie . They weren't as strong as what she felt for Ronnie though.  She leaned forward to examine Reggie's face up close . Their eyes were looking over each other together as if dancing .

" Worst of all , I have such impure thoughts about you . " Reggie whispered as if speaking it out to just himself . His eyes looked at Monica's pouty lips as she bit her lower lip . Monica fought her thoughts of Ronnie and shoved them in the farthest parts of her mind . She pressed her lips against Reggie's . Their chairs were so close together , he picked her up and sat her on his lap to straddle him . His hands placed on her upper thighs hiking her nightgown up to her thigh crease.

Monica wasted no time and let the hunger take over . A hunger she didn't know she desperately had until this very moment . She motioned her hands to his torso and began unbuttoning his shirt and pushing back his suit . She kissed down his jawline all the way down to his neck . Reggie let his head hang as he enjoyed the pleasure.

His erection was evident and showing through his trousers . Monica smirked and began grinding her hips over him causing him to almost let out a moan . He looked at her in shock at how much she was into this . It fired him up more nonetheless.

Reggie stood up while continuing to hold onto Monica and placed her on the bed gently as he pressed his torso between her thighs gradually opening them . He pulled Monicas nightgown up above her head before looking at her for approval to continue . She nodded shyly and wrapped her legs around his waist . Reggie pulled his hard member through his boxers and slowly entered into her . He felt her muscles tighten around him and pulse . " Fuck you're so tight," Reggie breathed out. Hearing him praise her like that made Monica even more turned on and Reggie could tell by the wet pool that formed around his dick as he thrusted into her .

Monica moaned and scratched Reggie's back . Each thrust was better than the last and she felt herself coming close . As if able to read her body, Reggie made his thrusts more fast paced so she could finish . The orgasm felt like short and sweet . Smiling as he pulled her onto his chest, Reggie kissed her forehead and fell asleep .

Ronnie paced back and forth down the corridor hallway to Monica's apartment. He knew he needed to apologize for the things he said esencialmente if he wanted to keep her . Unsure of what to say, he slowly began to feel defeated . " You ruin every good thing that comes your way , sorry bastard ," he told himself . " Monica is the last good thing you'll ever know ."

He stopped at Monica's door and rapped his knuckles against the hard panel for a few seconds . Monica didn't answer which wasn't much of a surprise . Should he knock again ? Before he could knock a second time he heard a sound that he didn't expect . Monicas sweet moans . Anger rushed over him abruptly . Then he heard pants from no other than the male who was screwing his beloved Monica . " Fuck this . I'll kill that fucker ."

Ronnie stormed out of the complex and marched to his car prepared to grab his pistol . A familiar car caught his eye that he didn't notice before when he pulled in across the street . It was Reggie's car . Ronnie put two and two together and realized his brother was more ballsy than he assumed . He actually took his offer on Monica . Ronnie wasn't used to feeling defeated especially by his own twin whom he usually surpassed in things . He also wasn't used to feeling this emotion towards his brother either—jealousy .
