I laughed at his comment until I realised he was serious. "I'm not joking Tiana", he said looking me directly in the eyes. "I froze up and he leaned in attempting to kiss me but I moved out the way causing him to lean forward into the pillow. "Please Tiana just let me kiss you", he pleaded, I could see the hurt in his eyes and I wanted to cry. A tear rolled down my face and he wiped it gently, "Please", he whispered. "I can't, you can't, we can't. It's wrong, not now I'm not a cheater", I said. "I love you though Tiana, more than any man ever will. I'll wait for you, I promise I will", he stroked my hand kissing it. I was pleasantly surprised that he said he would wait for me. A guy like him could have any girl but he wants plain old me.

I got up and took a shower for bed. I took my time washing and once I was done I made sure Chris was out the room so I could change. I locked the door making sure he wouldn't "accidentally" walk in on me changing
. I changed into shorts and oversized t- shirt - nothing too revealing. I unlocked the door and he was standing right outside of it I let him and guided him to the shower. He was in there for a while and just as I was about to leave he pulled me back saying, "you can stay", before I could reply he locked the door. So I made myself comfortable on my bed trying not to look up so I stared at my phone screen. "I know you're trying not to look", he laughed. "It's cool, I'm done ma". I looked up and he was wearing a plain white vest and grey sweats where his dick imprint was clearly visible. I hated to admit it but I would happily receive that package any day. "Chris put some clothes on", I said shielding my eyes. "I'm fully dressed though", he smirked . "You know what I mean", I sighed. "What's wrong, you uncomfortable?", he laughed. I rolled my eyes and went downstairs to see Alyssia on the couch and Jermaine was still here. "Jermaine, did Chris tell you he's staying over", I asked. "Nah but it's cool cause I'm staying over too", he smiled not taking his eyes off Alyssia. I smiled at their cuteness and grabbed two bottles of KA fruit punch and a bowl of popcorn, I made my way back upstairs and saw Chris looking through my DVD collection. "Can we watch this one, I've seen it before but I love it", he said picking up Poetic Justice. "Sure I love that film too", I smiled. I climbed up on the bed sitting next to him and getting comfortable on my cushions, Chris got comfortable and sat between my legs and I played with his hair - it had gotten longer and curlier on top since when we first met. I handed him his bottle of KA and the popcorn bowl.
We relaxed as the film started with the opening scene.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~The film had just ended and Chris had the biggest smile on his face. By the time the movie had ended he was next to me with his head resting on my stomach. "Why you smiling for?", I asked. "This movie always makes me smile, look at the way that Pac taught Janet to love again after she had been through heartbreak, that gon be me and you", he beamed. I chuckled and got up to look in my full length mirror and Chris wrapped his arms around my waist and rested his head on my shoulder. "Look at us, we already look like a couple, that lady at the store thought we did, I think we do, do you?", he questioned peering at me during the mirror. "We look Aight I guess, nothing special", I chuckled moving out of his grip.
The light downstairs switched off, and we heard footsteps going up the stairs indicating Alyssia and Jermaine were going to her room. It was coming up to midnight and traffic outside the window had slowed down. "Chris ain't you tired?", I yawned. "Nope, I could stare at you all day", he replied truthfully. "What's the sleeping arrangements?", I asked. "Well, I was kinda hoping you'd let me sleep in your bed, I promise I won't try anything funny", he put his hand over his heart. "Pinky promise, no funny business", I held out my pinky and he wrapped his around mine. I adjusted the pillows and laid down comfortably while the TV showed re runs of The Wendy Williams show. Chris crawled in next to me wrapping his arms around me. "Is it just me or does "Wendy" look like a man", he asked dead serious. I laughed,"why did you put air quotes around Wendy". "Cause we don't know if Wendy is her real name for all we know it could be Wayne", he said. We settled down and I could feel myself falling asleep, I tried to stay awake but sleep had overtaken me.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I woke up to and empty bed and the stench of weed burning from the balcony - Chris of course. It was 7am and way too early for me to be awake. I wrapped myself up in my silk nightgown and opened the balcony door to see Chris sitting on the outdoor lounge shirtless. "Good morning baby", he smiled, the whites of his eyes were red which exaggerated his brown eyes making them appear lighter. "I'm not your baby". "You could be". I rolled my eyes and sat next to him, "so you decided to smoke weed in my balcony and not wake me up and offer", I lightly pushed him. "Sorry I've been up for a while thinking and smoking helps me concentrate, it puts everything into focus", he stared off into the distance in deep thought. He passed the blunt to me but I didn't accept it, I couldn't smoke this early. "Chris, why are you shirtless? It's not even hot out here". He shrugged and continued staring into space.
I went back inside and went downstairs to start breakfast. I was in the mood for Omelettes so I started making 8 so all 4 of us could have 2 each. Alyssia was next to come downstairs with Jermaine trailing behind her. "It's 7:45 why you up?", yawned Alyssia. "I was woken up by Chris burning weed on the balcony", I replied, "Anyway y'all have a good night?", I asked. They just smirked at each other and I chuckled while carrying on frying omelettes. Chris was last to come downstairs and he was still shirtless. "Tiana what you making, I'm hungry", he yawned. "I'm making Omelettes, they'll be ready soon". Jermaine called Chris into the living room so that gave me and Alyssia a chance to talk. "Soo Alyssia, what happened with you and Jermaine last night hmm?", I asked. "Magic happened boo, magic", she snapped he fingers. "What happened with you and Chris last night did you leave Isiah for him?", she asked. "Yesterday he tried to kiss me but I said no because I'm not going to cheat on Isiah and he tried to kiss me but I said no, he said I'm can't kiss him but he can kiss me but I objected and he said he would wait for me. We watched Poetic Justice and he compared us to Tupac and Janet. That's about it really; oh yeah! He said him and Jermaine were thinking about taking us to Brixton so we can go see Future". "Aww he said he'd wait for you, I don't know why you're still with that dickhead Isiah, when was the last time y'all spoke?", she questioned. "A couple days ago, I think", I shrugged. She kissed her teeth as she started getting her plate ready. I got my plate ready and sat at the counter eating. Chris and Jermaine came in a minute later and tucked in as though they hadn't eaten in weeks. I laughed at their lack of table manners and excused myself from the table. I took my phone off charge and saw that I had a text from Isiah.Text conversation
Isiah: Wassup, you good?
Tiana: Hey, I'm good wbu?
Isiah: I'm chillin, what you doing today?
Tiana: I ain't doing anything today
Isiah: Aight kl, I got to go, bye
Tiana: Oh okay, byeI put my phone down sighing that he didn't ask me out. I picked out today's outfit which was my white OVO top, black jeans, and 6ix God cap. When I was done showering I creamed up and got dressed. As I was leaving my room, Chris was walking down the hall in just his towel. Water ran down his chest dripping onto his abs. I went downstairs so I didn't stop and stare. I was chilling on the couch when Chris came from behind me and stole my cap. "Give me back my hat man", I half yelled. "Hmm, I wonder how much I could sell this for", he laughed. "You're not funny, now pass my hat", I jumped trying get my hat from his grip. He stumbled backwards falling causing me to lose my balance and I fell on top of him - it was a very awkward position. "I knew you couldn't resist me, I saw you preeing my body as I came out the shower", he smirked. "Oh please boy, why would I pree you when my man is down the road", I said while scrambling to my feet and going back to my previous position on the couch.
Jermaine came jogging down the stairs, "Yo Chris we gotta go, my mum is visiting and the house is a fucking mess", he breathes heavily. I laughed at the fact he was so worried. "Tiana, I'll talk to you later, bye Alyssia", he said after grabbing his jacket and leaving. Alyssia came down the stairs and sat next to me on the couch smiling creepily. "You okay Alyssia?", I asked worriedly. "I'm fine, I just had a thought. Wanna DM that Jani girl?". This should be interesting.
