'This ain't what I want, this is something else
Something that ain't good for my health
I been searching but I can't get no help
And I don't feel like myself'

"Are you listening to me?" Stars voice drags me out my thoughts and I blink back into reality.

"Yea, I like 'em" I give her the validation she was seeking about the YSL heels and she rolls her eyes knowing I wasn't really paying attention.

I was trying so hard to get into our spree but I couldn't stop thinking about last night, and earlier this morning.

Especially since I ran into him when I was leaving the building.

She woke up and I put her right back to sleep before she could even protest about me leaving so early, I got dressed and left her sprawled across the bed sleeping good.

I was jogging down the steps and we bumped right into each other.

"Drek?" He knowingly questions and I just nod.

"Know how that go, go wash the pussy off you my nigga smell like you been in it all night" He laughs and my stomach gets queasy, I wanted to tell him right there but he walks past me going upstairs and I just jog the rest of the way down.

Last night was a one time thing, fucking on her was way too messy.

I couldn't stop thinking about this shit, I still couldn't believe I did it, shit felt surreal to me.

"Ok what's on ya mind cause you fucking up our vibe right now" She softly sighs waiting on me to respond but I just shake my head.

"I'm just tired, couldn't sleep last night" Which was true, we was fucking till the wee morn.

I probably slept a good two hours before I woke up and jumped in it again just so I could leave, by the time I got home I couldn't even sleep.

I washed my sins away and shot to Brooklyn to pick star up and my mind hadn't rested once.

"You should've just said that we could've kicked it at the house just chilling being lazy, let's go so you can get some rest" She walks up to the counter and I slyly smile following her.

The cashier rings up her items and I pay for everything before collecting her bags and we head out of saks.

I put her bags in the trunk before we both get in the car and I pull off heading back to Brooklyn.

It didn't take us long to get there, I park in front of her brownstone popping the trunk open before we both get out.

I collect all her bags cause I wasn't making two trips and she was already waiting for me at the top of the steps holding the door open.

Walking in I take her bags upstairs to her room before going back downstairs kicking my shoes off before joining her in the living room.

"I'm about to start cooking, you make sure you go to sleep" She says before leaving me alone and I turn the tv on for background noise before laying back feeling my eyes get heavy.
