Hidden Pleasure | COMPLETED

4.

Crystal hadn't picked up her phone since she made her post, she also hadn't seen Devale's comment or calls.

Devale was unaware of everything that had transpired and was confused on what Crystals post was about.

Also Tyler was trying to figure out how to spin this, first off Devale isn't leaving. He asked immediately.

He attempted to get in contact with Crystal but her phone was downstairs while she is upstairs sleeping the rest of the day away.

Devale had to make it known to everyone in the cast he wasn't leaving but had yet to say anything per Tyler's request.

Tyler had a plan to try to say it was a prank, or something to get their name in the headlights due to their new season arriving.

"Im going now," Kj spoke over the phone to Devale who was still panicking even hours later, this was bad for his career.

He wasn't even around the comfort of his fiancé and had talked to her since he left her in their home to work on his film outside of TP Studios.

"Im on my way there now Vale," Kj exclaimed over the phone, she was rushing to Crystals house to stop this madness.

"Okay please tell her to call me," he spoke, "I will," Devale ended the call and kj pulled up to Crystals 2 story home.

She parked, got out, went up to the house and attempted to knock, she got nothing. She knocked again and rung the doorbell.

She reached her hand in the bushes and pulled out Crystals spare key, she unlocked the door, put the key back and went inside.

"CRYSTAL!" Her voice rung throughout the house, she heard notifications back to back. She looked around and spotted Crystals phone.

It was on the charger by her fireplace, she picked it up and a call from Tyler came through. She answered it.

"Oh thank God! Crystal are you okay?!" , "It's Kj Tyler, Im at her house Im assuming she's asleep, her phone is blowing up still."

Kj was looking through the Notification Center flabbergasted, "Okay, go wake her up and call me back!"

Kj nodded, hung up and went upstairs waking Crystal up instantly. "Kj what are you doing here? How you get it?"

"Spare key, and girl what the fuck? You post that then don't answer calls text DMs like what?" , "What do you mean?"

"Devale isn't leaving the show, Tyler has been trying to spin what you said for hours now." Crystal was shocked.

"He's not-No girl! Call him then call Tyler!" She hands Crystal her phone, "Hello?" Devale answered on the first ring.

"Crystal what the fuck! Im not leaving why would you even think that?" He couldn't help but yell, "This could ruin my career!"

"Im so sorry Devale! Khadeen told me- What?" Devale cut her off, "She called and said you were leaving the show and wanted me to know first."

"Then after that I texted you and you said your decision was final, and I assumed it was actually you because you had just posted yourself on Instagram."

"Crystal I don't want to get mad at you because it's not your fault but that wasn't me, I haven't even had access to any of my stuff."

Crystal was dumbfounded, "I only just got it and the first thing I see is your post." He further explained.

"I'm sorry Devale," She sincerely apologized, "Let I would've known it wasn't you I wouldn't even had said anything!

"It's okay Crystal, call Tyler! I got ann engagement to call off. " he said before ending the call.

Crystal sat there literally stuck, face crusty, breath stanky, "shit I feel bad for even telling you to post it."

"Let me go get ready," she got up, did her lil routine then rejoined Kj in her bedroom. "Girl if you don't call Tyler."

"Oh yea!" She grabbed her own phone and dialed Tyler. "Renee, damn you post that then don't answer wow fuck me huh?"

Kj eyes widened, this was her first time ever hearing Tyler curse or react angrily but Crystal seemed used to it.

Not because he does it to her often but because in her many years of working with him and becoming his close friend she's seen this side.

"I'm so so so so so sorry TP! I just talked to Devale it was a big misunderstanding, Kay made it seem like he was leaving."

"And you believed her jealous ass? You know ion get it people shit but Khadeen? Out of all people don't believe shit she says."

"I know Tyler but I texted him well I thought I don't know my emotions hight right now." Crystal took a breather.

"Okay Crystal I'm not gone get on yo ass too much but you know we gone have to chat in person, i gotta see how we can spin this."

"Okay T,". "Talk to you later," he ended the call and she turned to Kj. Kj couldn't help but laugh, "Is he always like that?"

"Girl absolutely yes!" Crystal said taking a seat, "Should I take it down or see how Tyler will spin it first?"

"Shit ask him," Crystal asked him and he told her to keep it up but alter the caption which she did taking out the stuff about his "departure."

Crystal checked the shade room to see they were indeed in there but the picture of her caption wasn't.

It was just a photo of her and Devale with a red squiggly line and a photo of the cast on the side. Thankfully she had altered the caption if they did post it.

Crystal spent the rest of the day with Kj before Kj went home, Crystal began to put her house to sleep starting with the kitchen.

She finished up and got a knock at the door, "Uh it's 10 who tf at my door?" She questioned herself looking at the time on her electric stove.

She went up to her closet by the door and looked at some defense gear she had, grabbing the bat she went to the door.

"Who is it?" , "Me open the door," she dropped her face from confusion to casual irritation and sighed.

"Hey Devale, im sorry genuine- before she could finish her sentence he grabbed her waist and full on kissed her.

Before crystals mind could react her body did, she threw her arms around him and kissed him back, opening her mouth giving him access to tongue her down.

he walked inside still kissing her and used his foot to close the door, he moved his hands down to her thighs and picked her up.

He placed her on the clean kitchen island and moved down to suck on her neck while groping her body.

"Devale what're you doing?" She moaned out in an exhausted voice, "I want you Crystal, i want you and i want us." He said to her.

"I love you, I cant bear not being with you ", around you any of it anymore luv. I need you."
