No Love too: Hold You Down(Sequel)

Chapter twenty-one

I've been reading a lot of poems lately. There is a good selection of poems i've read so far:

Maya Angelou - Still I Rise

Dudley Randall- Ballad Of Birmingham

And many more!

Christy P.O.V

When i woke up i headed downstairs to read some poetry. I've never done it but i need some powerful words to help with my insecurities. So i decided to read Maya Angelou's Still i Rise. I heard it was an inspirational poem, so i'm going to read it. First i grabbed me a cup of coffee, and a cream cheese bagel. I than pulled my hair up into a ponytail, and began to read. One particular line stood out to me.

Just like hopes springing high,Still I'll rise.

I am confident in myself, and hope and pray that August knows better than to talk to one of these skanky ass females. I know i'm insecure but i don't think august would stoop that low, you know. I don't wanna get my hopes up though, because if he throws away 4 years of a strong marriage, i wouldn't know what to do.

After a few minutes of me reading he came downstairs. I walked in the kitchen, and made him a coffee. He than walked out and came over to me.

"Good morning baby" he said kissing my forehead. He walked around and came and sat behind me on the couch, pulling me to his chest. I don't know why but i began to sniffle.

"August" i said.

"Yes" he said grabbing one of my hands.

"Why do i feel like i cant trust you with females" i asked.

"I really don't know, but you should trust me. I WILL NEVER cheat on you" he said taking the book out my hand, putting it on the table.

"I know you wont but i'm just, i don't know i just feel like when were doing good somebody always finds away to upset me and its not helping at all since i'm pregnant" i cried. He held me close.

"Well i'm here and you know that, and stop doubting me, cause you know i love you and wouldn't ever hurt you" he said a little hurt.

"I'm sorry okay, i'm just, i don't even know" i said sitting up putting my head in my hands. He sat up as well.

"Quit holding stuff in and talk to me" he said. I than stood up and straddled him, wrapping my arms around his neck.

"Let it out baby" he said rubbing my back, than kissing my forehead. Soon i found myself falling asleep.

August P.O.V

After a while i realized christy was sleep. I just feel like i need to show her im NOT who she tryna make me out to be. I know i would never cheat on her and she need to know that as well. I took her upstairs and tucked her in the bed. She needs to rest anyways seeing that its only 6:30. I dont even know why she was up that early. After getting her situated i got in the bed pulling her to me.

"I love you baby" i said playing in her hair. I than turned the TV on and was watching Martin.

A couple of our later

"Baby come here" christy yelled. She was feeling better obviously, but im glad.

"Yes" i said.

"I love this" she said. She was playing Song Cry.

"Thank you baby" i said. I guess she could tell that made me feel some type of way by my body language, so she pulled me into a tight hug.
