Sinful Secrets

Chapter 3

It's Thursday and Desiree is still wondering about Tracy's plan. What was he trying to do? Was he just showing off, of was he setting himself a place inside her mind until Friday night. She was in a deep sleep when she began to sleep. She saw her inside her house in thin, blue lingerie laying by the fireplace. A real cliche romance. A silhouette then walked up to her smiling. She layed her head down and leg his hands explore the canvas that is her body. As he undid her bra. She closed her eyes and felt a pair of soft lips meet hers. Her hands raised from his broad chest to his hair. It felt bushier than usual. As she opened her eyes, she saw that it was Tracy giving her that titillating rubdown. Desiree then woke up in a sweat. She was shocked at her dream. Her shock was then clouded by guilt, almost as if Keith was standing in that room with them. She hopped up and got into the shower. She began to think as she rinsed. She never dreamed about anyone else but Keith, especially in those scenarios. How can someone put this much affect on someone else so quick? As she was trying to figure what the hell happened, Keith knocked the shower door. "Baby, you okay?, He asked. "Yes. Why?". "Well it's 8:00 and I have to get to work.", Keith responded. "Oh shit!", Desiree shouted as she hopped out of the shower. She saw that she didn't have time to put together and outfit so she just grabbed a t-shirt, black jacket, black jogging pants, and matching black tennis shoes. She then ran into the bathroom to grab her make-up and to steal a kiss from Keith before she left. As she started the car, her phone began to ring. Desiree knew it was Kesha so she answered. "Yo.", Desiree answered. "Desi, where the hell are you at? Me and Faith have been waiting on you.", Kesha asked. "Sorry. Sorry. I overslept, but I'm on my way to come pick you guys up now.", Desiree explained. "Mhhm. You better.", Kesha said as she hung up. Desiree pulled up to Faith's house and her and Kesha climbed in. "So why were you oversleeping today? Keith wore that ass out didn't he?", Kesha said. Chuckling with Faith afterwards. "Uh no. I was just sleeping.", Desiree said as she tried to avoid eye contact. Faith looked at the rearview mirror and saw that Desiree had a funny look on her face. "Okay Desi, what's wrong?", Faith asked. "What? Nothing is wrong.", Desiree answered. "Desi, we've been friends since forever so I think I can tell when something is wrong so what is it?", Faith asked again. "It's nothing Faith. It was just a dream.", Desiree answered. "What was??", Kesha nosily asked. Before Desiree could answer, she was saved by pulling up at her parking spot right at that moment. "Damn and I was just about to answer you, but I got work to do. I'll meet y'all back over here after work.", Desiree said as she speed-walked to her office. She opened the door and saw Tracy, fresh, low, haircut, nice turquoise vest with matching bowtie, white long-sleeve shirt with the sleeves rolled to show off his vascular forearm, nice, pressed khakis with white forces with the turquoise sign on them. I usually don't acknowledge guys who don't have a gentleman-like style to them, but he makes it look so mature with his haircut. I wasn't missing the nappy hairdo he was sporting the other day at all. "What's up Desiree", Tracy greeted. "Um hey Tracy.", Desiree responded dazed. "Is everything cool?", Tracy asked. concerned about her look. "Uh yeah. You look nice today by the way.", She complimented. "Well thanks. If you didn't know, I like to switch up on people from time to time. For someone who doesn't really focus on appearance, I can look pretty damn good when I want to.", He said with a cocky smile. It was amusing to Desiree to see the sense of unpredictability Tracy carries. "You look beautiful yourself.", Tracy complimented back. "Really? I just threw this on because I was going to be late for work today.", Desiree explained. "I would've said it no matter what you had on.", Tracy said, giving her a smirk. "Aww thanks.", Desiree said. "Anytime Beautiful.", Tracy responded. Desiree had a warm feeling from the compliment. She tried to figure out how did Tracy know just what to say at any moment, but she decided to just accept the compliment from him and began working on her computers, but from time to time, Desiree would steal a glance at Tracy. She would catch herself and focus back on her work while her mind wonders why she was watching him. Tracy then turned his screen of and pulled another chair out beside him. "Um, what are you doing", Desiree asked. "3..2..1", Tracy counted. As soon as he hit 1, Keith walked in with a bag and sat in the chair Tracy pulled out. "Hey baby.", Keith greeted Desiree as he kissed her cheek. "Hey sweetheart.", Desiree responded as she chuckled. "What's funny", Keith asked while giving an innocent, yet oblivious smile. "Nothing baby.", Desiree said. "What's up man", Keith said as he stuck his hand out for Tracy to shake. "What up witcha?", Tracy said, meeting Keith's hand with his. Tracy and Keith seemed to have a great conversation going on as Desiree sat by, staring at them and wondering around in her head. "Wow. They're both cute, nice, but why am I just feeling different towards Tracy? I mean of course he's more fun and unpredictable than Keith, but Keith is more mature and stable. Wait. Why the hell am I even thinking about Tracy?? I'm engaged to Keith. I feel bad though. I'm sure this feeling will go away. All I have to do is focus on my engagement and work and everything will turn smooth.", she thought in her head. As she snapped back into reality, she heard a little of their conversation. "So we're still on for tomorrow night right?", Tracy asked. "Of course we are.", Keith answered. They shook hands as Keith stood up. "Nice bowtie by the way.", Keith noticed. "Thanks man. You don't wear bowties do you?", Tracy guessed. "Yeah you're right. I'm not a bowtie guy.", Keith said. "Well maybe I could get you one. You know, a little walk on the wild side.", Tracy joked. "Haha I appreciate it, but I'm just not a bowtie, a good collard shirt is good enough for me.", Keith explained. "Well I'm about to go. I'll catch you guys later.", Keith said as he left, not before giving Desiree a kiss that is. As the door shut, Desiree began to give Tracy a funny look. "What", Tracy asked. "What were you guys talking about?", Desiree demanded. "Wait, you were sitting here the whole time, how did you not hear us?", Tracy confusingly asked. "Because fuck you, that's why.", Desiree answered. "Well if you must know hardass, we were just talking about life and tomorrow night.", Tracy informed. "Yeah, I don't think I want to go to your house tomorrow. I'm not a football person anyway.", Desiree said. "I understand, but even if you don't come with him, you're always welcome in.", Tracy said as he gently held Desiree's hand. Desiree blushed a bit, but then she came back to her senses and pulled it away. "I'm just saying.", Tracy said as he smiled then turned back to his computer. Desiree turned to her computer aswell and began working. Eventually, as the final working hour came to an end, Desiree began to pack up her stuff and wait out the last 10 minutes. "What are you doing?", Tracy asked. "I like to wait out the last few minutes and spend it with my thoughts.", Desiree answered. "Oh. So what are you thinking about?", Tracy also asked. "Don't worry about that.", Desiree said. "Well excuse me sweetheart, but I'm worried about if you know that you're off the clock now.", Tracy responded as he showed her the time. She knew that Kesha would show up and suspect something if she wasn't out at the car on time. "Damn, I'm late again.", Desiree said as she grabbed her jacket and sped out the door. As she made it to her friends at her car, she heard someone call her name. She turned around and saw Tracy running to her with her bag. "You seem to forget alot don't you?", Tracy joked as he handed her the bag. "Shut up, but thanks though.", Desirer responded as she accepted the bag. "Well I got an hour left before I clock out so I'll check you tomorrow ok?", Tracy said as he walked away. "Sure. Bye.", Desiree hollered as she got in the car. She turned her head to back into the street, she saw Kesha and Faith give her a weird smile. "What?", Desiree asked. "I think I figured something out.", Faith said. Desiree kept her eyes on the road, trying not to acknowledge her. "You got a side nigga don't you?", Faith guessed. "No. I'm not that kind of girl.", Desiree sternly said. "Well why have you been late coming to the car recently?", Kesha asked. "No reason. I just have trouble closing.", Desiree answered. "Mhhm. Well you better be careful. You got a good man at home that a girl would kill for.", Kesha lectured. "Don't lecture me because there's nothing going on. I'm engaged. En-to-the-gaged and I'm not gonna throw that away. "Desiree explained. As the argument tried to pick up, They pulled up to Faith's house and she let them out. "Girl I'll call you tonight ok?", Kesha said. "Ok then.", Desiree said as she drove off. The rest of her day was very regular. Keith made dinner, she cuddled up with him as they talked about their day, and they slept. Well Keith did.
