Come Back to Reality

Chapter 50:

*Crystal's POV*

"Hey, Aubrey." I ran up to him and hugged him.

"Hey."

"Take a shower with me."

"Naw. I'll take one after you."

"No. Take one WITH me."

"Crystal."

"Aubrey."

He sighed and I got irritated.

"You know what? Nevermind."

I went upstairs and did my nightly routine. Fuck him. I don't need his ass.

I had forgot to bring my clothes in the bathroom with me so I wrapped in a towel and walked to the dresser in the bedroom.

"I love you, Crystal."

"Fuck you, Aubrey."

He grabbed me and GENTLY tackled me to the bed.

"I'm not for it. Fuck outta my way."

When I got my clothes ready to put on, my phone was ringing. It was a facetime call from Sandi.

When I pressed the answer button, I saw a huge ass smile. My boo, Alliyah!

"Hey, Alli!"

"Hey, Momma. I miss you."

"I miss you, too, Pumpkin. Are you having fun?"

"Yeah. I went to the zoo, the beach, went shopping, got my nails did, got my hair done...OOOOO do you see it? I got it straight, but now it's curly again."

"Yeah, baby. I see it."

"Where's Uncle Aubrey?"

"On the bed."

"Is he asleep?"

"No. You wanna see him?"

"Yeah."

I gave him my phone and finished getting dressed. I put my hair in a bun since I didn't want it to soak my clothes.

When I was done brushing my teeth and stuff, I laid down. While I was freshening up in the bathroom, Aubrey took his shower. When he finished his business, he laid down next to me.

"How was the studio?"

"It was alright. I have a photo shoot tomorrow afternoon so I'm getting you a car in the morning."

"Are you serious?!"

"Yeah."

I kissed his lips and grabbed my phone.

"What are you doing?"

"Tweeting."

"You have an account?"

"I made it earlier since you wasn't home and I was bored."

Tweet: I hate how much I love you.

Little does he know, my tweet was about Chris.

"What did you and Chris do today?"

"What else? He got me something to eat and dropped me off."

"Nothing else?"

"What else would happen?"

"Why do you have an attitude?"

"Why are you so curious and doubtful?"

"It was just a question."

"You're an ass."

He took out his phone and tweeted:"I love how much you hate me. @CrystalAWstBrks"

Me:"You've OFFICIALLY been kicked up to a DUMB ass."

"But it's MY ass."

I started laughing. "Baby, LISTEN to yourself before you talk."

"Listen to yourself WHILE you talk, you mean?"

"I MEAN business."

"And I can give that to you."

"It depends if I can take it."

"I think that's enough wordplay."

"What about foreplay?"

"G'Nite, Crystal."

I leaned over him to give him a neat, sweet kiss before I fell asleep in his arms, spooning."
