Down For You

Chapter Twenty-Four

2 Months Later (Chresanto)

"I can't believe momma about to have that baby." Cristina gleed, as we waited in the living room. I rolled my eyes, I'm only here because my granny told me I had to, other than that I really don't give a fuck about this baby. "Aren't you excited?" Cristina asked. "No." I replied, harshly.
She sucked her teeth.

"You know what, I'm so sick of you and your attitude! You have all this anger towards momma? For what? All she does is love and care for you. All that anger should be directed towards your dad, cause he left you, momma didn't and to be honest you acting like him right now, like a punk bitch." She said through gritted teeth.

"Cristina.......Shut. The fuck. Up. I'm two seconds away from slapping your ass." I said barely above a whisper. "Hit me then, hit me. You won't because you know I can hit your ass back. I swear to God if you touch me ima fuck your bitch ass up and that's on MY daddy's grave."

"Chres, wake up baby, you have to go see your therapist today." I said shaking him. He narrowed his eyes at me.

"No."

"Chresanto stop playing, you do this every day." I said tugging at his arm. He didn't budge, "Damn, I thought we could have one of our pre-sessions before we left." I smirked, opening my robe exposing my nude body. He licked his lips and I winked at him, before seductively walking away; into the closet to get dressed.

Chres should know I'm not giving him none.

I got dressed in a beige cashmere sweater, dark-washed jeans and beige thigh-high boots. My hair was curled loosely and I had done my makeup very natural.

I exited the closet to see Chresanto was out of bed and in the shower, I knew he would be up after what I had told him. Unfortunately that's the only way I can get him out of bed in the morning.
Since Creston's death he dosent like to do anything or go anywhere, so I always have to bribe him with something.

Although he has gotten better, he's not the same and I know its going to take time for him to cope with this situation, but It just hurts me to see him like this, Especially since he was there for me when I was going through my shit.

I can't help him though, I don't understand the pain that he's going through.

I jogged down the steps and waited for Chres at the door. "I'm ready." Chres said, coming down the steps shortly after. "Alright we have to be there on time today." I said, opening the door.

He grabbed my waist and pulled me into him. "Aren't you forgetting something?" I pulled away from him, pushing him out the door.

"We can't be late." I smirked, shutting the door walking past him.

"How do you feel about your brothers death?" Dr.Montgomery asked. Chres let out a sarcastic laugh, "Is that even a question?"

She sucked her teeth, Chres was really giving her a hard time today and I don't know why. "Does losing your brother bring up past feelings or memories?" She asked clicking her pen.

"Somewhat. I feel guilty." He admitted, I rubbed his hand. "Why do you feel guilty?" she asked, scribbling something down on her clipboard. "Because when I was younger.....I spent half of my life hating him and despising him. I feel like shit for being like that towards him. I-I feel like I didn't have enough time to actually......to actually make up what I did to him for those last years." He said.

Dr.Montgomery nodded her head in understatement. "So you feel as though you didn't have enough time to make up to him.....what you've done to him in the past?" She asked.

He nodded, "exactly, and I really don't want the past to come back and haunt me because......my dad had left me when I was real young, I took that out on my mom. My mom died having Creston, I took that out on him. Now that he's gone I don't want to take that out on her." He said gesturing to me.

"And you are." She asked gesturing to me. "His girlfriend." I said. "So by what you've told me you take your loses out on the closes people around you." She concluded. He nodded.

"Then that's what we'll work on."

"So did you like how today went." I asked Chres as we looked through our menus. "It was straight." he mumbled.

"Ugh, I don't know what I want." I whined, flipping through the menu. "Get whatever you want." He mumbled. It wasn't that I didn't know what I wanted, it was just I wasn't even hungry and I feel anxious.

I feel like Chres isn't telling me something. "I'll just have a burger." I mumbled dropping the menu. Chres gave me a weird look. "You alright?" he asked. I nodded, "I'm fine." I lied.

"Chresanto is that you!" someone semi yelled walking out to our table. When she got closer I realized that it was......Yasmin.

My eyes instantly widened, I know she isn't coming up to this table. "Hey." he said getting up hugging her. "I haven't seen you in......it seems like forever." she said. He smiled, "I know." They were both all goggly eyed and smiley, making me very uncomfortable.

"And you get even more handsome every goddamn day." She flirted, he chuckled, "Thank you." I cleared my throat.

"Oh Cassie, I didn't see you there." she said. I gave her a fake smile, "Oh and I am so sorry for your loss, he was such a wonderful kid....." she said. I rolled my eyes. "But I have somewhere to be, so I'll see you around." she said walking off.
"Bye." I said with an additude, "Don't even think I'm checking for her. I'm all about you Cass." he said, sitting back down. "Yeah. Right." I said slumping down in the booth.

"What is wrong with you!" Chresanto yelled at me. "You just don't get it." I mumbled walking into the house, We had just started arguing after we left the restaurant. "Don't get what! what did I do?!"

I let out a frustrated sigh, "You sat there in front of me and let her flirt with you! You acted like I wasn't even there!" He rubbed his temples, "You act like I was flirting with her!"

"That's not the fucking point!" I said slamming a glass on the counter causing it to break. "Probably still fucking around with that BITCH!" I yelled. "You need to calm down." He told me, I ignored him and walked up the steps.

I could hear him following behind me, I walked into the bathroom and ran my bleeding under cold water. I should've never broken that glass. "Let me see." Chres said reaching for me, I shrugged him away.

"Don't fucking touch me."

"Are you ready to talk to now." Chres asked getting in the bed. I switched the lamp off. "No." He reached across me and switched it on. "I told you I wasn't fucking her, are you that insecu-"

"Insecure?!" I said hopping out the bed. "I didn't mean it like that." he said running his hand across his face. "Yes you did, because if you didn't you would've never said it!" I said putting on my shoes. I walked out of the room.

"Where are you going?" he asked trailing behind me. He tried grabbing me but I snatched away and walked faster. "Cassie, where are you going?!" I grabbed my keys, ignoring him.

He snatched me up, turning me around, "Cassie I'm trying to talk to you." He gritted through his teeth. I tugged my arm out of his grip. "We need some time away from each other." I said.

He just nodded and walked away, I huffed. I somewhat feel like I'm not being there for him, I feel selfish. But I just can't keep running back to him. I did that with Cario and it made me weak.
