I followed behind Malik as he walked into the guest bathroom. Once I walked in, he slammed the door behind us.
"What the fu-" I tried to say before Malik grabbed my neck. This was the first time he ever grabbed my neck like this. So aggressive 😓.
"What's wrong with you Ariya???" He asked, sounding and looking pissed. I could tell he was high, I could smell it lingering on his body.
"Can you move?" I asked politely. I guess that upset him even more. He began walking forward until the back of my body lightly hit the sink.
"You think this shit a game bru?" He asked lowly. I looked down at the floor, breaking eye contact. He slowly let go of my neck and lifted up my chin.
"What's wrong mama?" He asked more soft spoken and genuinely now. His whole energy shifted. His eyes were glued to mine, his voice echoed in the bathroom.
"You were being so nonchalant and rude earlier .. so if you wanna leave you can do that Malik." I said with tears forming in my eyes. I really don't know why I'm finna cry .. maybe I'm too high.
"I'm not going nowhere. Don't cry Ariya, I didn't mean to be rude or nonchalant. I won't do it again. I'm sorry mama." He said softly. The tears fell from my eyes.
"I'm sorry too, I should've just communicated instead of being childish." I said back. If I wanted it to work with Malik I had to work on myself. And if that meant that I would have to drop my horrible communication skills, then so be it.
He pulled me in closer by my waist and wrapped his arms around me. I slowly closed my eyes and wrapped my arms around him. I could smell the cologne he had on, I could feel his heart beat, I could feel his chest going up and down.
I relaxed and fell deeper into his arms. After a few moments, he broke the hug and stared into my eyes. I felt the world stop and heard it fall quiet. I never wanted to lose this boy, this is who I love.
"Will you go on a date with me?" He asked out of the blue. It kind of shocked me because I've never been officially asked on a date.
"Yes." I answered. He pulled me into a kiss. It felt like we kissed for an eternity. I never wanted to let go of him. I just wanted to be with him, I don't want a future with anyone else.
"Cmon." He said grabbing my wrist. He lead us out of the bathroom and back into the living room. He sat down on the couch and pulled me on top of his lap.
