Two Can Play That Game

Chapter Fourty-Nine

Kivana Stewart

I took a deep breath as I began pacing the bathroom, It's been 2 months since the trial and one month since my first therapy session. I over came a lot of things, even closed the space between Simon and Kivan. It was just this one thing that was fucking with me.

"You ok darling?" Simon asked knocking on the door.

"Uh yeah." I mumbled.

"We can try another day if you want." He said.

"No...it's fine." I said quickly.

"Ok." He said.

I heard his foot steps walk away before I removed my clothes and looked in the mirror. I closed my eyes and rubbed my temples before pulling the shower curtain back...I quickly got into the shower and hugged myself.

I pushed those images out of my head as I slowly but surely began to wash myself clean, I washed my hair last. I stood in the shower letting the water rain over me, tears fell from eyes as I held my hand out letting the water gather in my palm.

"You did it." I mumbled.

I washed up at least 3 more times before getting out, I dried my entire body off before putting on a nike tech sweat suit. I stepped out of the bathroom to see Simon scrolling on his phone, he looked up at me and smiled.

"I am so proud of you." He smiled.

I smiled before he hugged me.

"Thank you." I said.

"Of course, I like this." He said fiddling with my hoodie.

I smiled.

"Yeah, I wanted to try something a little different. It's a little snug on the legs and thighs but its really loose in the hoodie. Long enough to cover my butt and boobs." I explained.

I looked up to see him smiling at me.

"What?" I asked.

He chuckled and shook his head.

"Nothing, you and your hoodies are going to be the death of me." He said caressing my face.

I smiled, as he looked at my lips.

"Can-"

I interrupted him by pecking his lips.

"No wait that wasn't fair." He pouted.

I laughed.

"I wasn't ready." He said.

I laughed before looking up at him, he grabbed me gently by the chin before placing a soft peck on my lips. It's been so long since we've kissed I've completely forgot how good his lips felt.

"I've missed your lips." He smiled.

I smiled.

"I missed you." I mumbled.

He pecked my cheek before leaving the room, I smiled as I placed my hand on my warm cheeks.

"Babe, I'm going to get the mail I'll be right back." He said.

"Ok." I said.

I heard the door open and close before I looked in the mirror slicking my damped hair into a mid ponytail. It felt good to be back in the states, I promised to visit Kim soon or she would've held me hostage. I heard the door open and close again before Simon returned to the room, he placed a stack of envelopes on my vanity before folding his arms.
