The Space in Between

Chapter Twenty

Jason Moore

I hit my blunt and squeezed my eyes shut as her mouth continued to do its work, its wrong but it feels so good. Damn I missed Harlow, she knew exactly how I liked it but this is the closest thing I'm going to get to Harlow. I felt myself reach my climax before she came into my view, she wiped the corners of her mouth and smiled.

"Yo nasty ass." I smirked.

She locked eyes with me and smirked.

"So I've been thinking, we've been sneaking around for a few months and I think that we should make things more official." She said.

I looked at her like she was crazy.

"Marley you already knew what it was, besides what about Harlow?" I asked placing my blunt into the ash tray.

She smacked her lips and moved her hair out of her face.

"What about her? We're friends because of Kat." She scuffed.

"Look let's just keep things how they are, besides you know I still love Harlow relationship or not." I shrugged.

"Yet you cheated on her and not only did you cheat on Harlow you cheated on the bitch you cheated on Harlow with me." She said.

"Ok and? What the fuck ever. At the end of the day I don't owe Harlow loyalty you do. You're supposed to be her "Home girl." I scuffed.

"Like I said, We ain't friends." She said.

I rolled my eyes and shook my head, I felt my phone vibrate and pulled it out seeing it was my boss calling. I stood up and tucked my dick back into my pants before going to the bathroom.

"Hello." I said.

"What's the update?" Xavier asked.

"I showed up to the strawberry farm and we shared a few words." I said.

"And?" He asked.

"And she still fucking hates me." I said.

"Cheating on her wasn't the fucking plan Jason, what was you supposed to do?" He asked.

I winced at his tone, I knew he was pissed.

"I was supposed to treat her right, fall in love and convince her to find out who her real father is." I said.

"Exactly and what the fuck did you do?" He asked.

"I cheated." I said.

"EXACTLY SO YOU FUCKING FIX IT! BREAK THEM THE FUCK UP!" He yelled.

I sighed and nodded.

"Ok, I'm working on it." I said.

He scuffed before hanging up, I rubbed my temples and sighed. Harlow and I didn't meet by fate it was all premeditated. I was a dope boy for Xavier and at the time his homeboy Victor, he wanted grandchildren and thought me and Harlow would be the perfect match.

We were, She was so deep in love with me that I couldn't help but to fall as well. I was the man she wanted but at the end of the day I was a man with a wondering eye and it led to us breaking up. Now Xavier is on my case about splitting her and ole boy up, which I am happy to do because I do miss Harlow and I do want her back.
