Anxiety

△07

****** Damani ******

The sun glazed through Mariama's windows and a cool breeze came swinging in and waking me up from my deep sleep. I sat up on the bed and rubbed my face being shocked by my... still broken, nose. I needed to check and change my bandages so I decided to get up. After putting the covers, back on the sleeping, Mariama, I began to walk across the hall to the bathroom but not before I noticed something.

As I was about to leave the bedroom, Jairus and William, laid cuddled up on the couch in Mariama's room. I ignored what I saw and put what was important back into play. I had to doctor my nose.

****** William ******

Hearing Mariama's door closing woke me right up. I felt my dream already fading but when that door closed, it canceled out the rest of my dream. I turned around feeling Jairus exhaling his breath against my skin.

Last night .... was very much needed. We even got a chance to finally talk. After I closed the bathroom door, We were like two dogs in heat. From on the sink, to on the floor and ending in the tub. We definitely covered every part of the bathroom.

"Shiiiiiiit." He moaned out before getting up.

Jairus walked over to the sink and with his arms stretched out, lowered his head facing the sink while breathing heavily.

I sat infront of the tub on the floor with my face in my knees. I didnt know how to feel. Most of all, I was scared of what was gonna happen next. Jairus was so Bi-Polar when it came to me... I never knew what or shall I say who I was gonna get. A few moments of silence and Jairus breathing exchanged before the awkward tension broke.

"Damnnn." Jairus laughed, looking up at himself in the mirror.

"What?" I responded.

Jairus just giggled to hisself and continued staring in the mirror.

"What is so funny?" I asked him as I stood up and began putting my clothes back on.

"That..."

"That was crazy!" He added facing me with a smile.

I lowered my head not knowing how to take his comment. I think he sensed it because he suddenly changed his mood and asked me ...

"Wait, Whats wrong?"

"Nothing, I just hope... I hope you didnt do anything you regretted." I confessed.

Jairus grabbed my shoulder and smiled.

"Will, I wouldnt have started it.. If I didnt want it to happen." He told me.

I must admit, It felt good knowing that he wanted it as much as I did but something about the whole thing still felt weird.

"I wanted it but daaamn, if I knew it was gonna be like that .... I wouldve started it a long time ago." Jairus joked.

We both laughed and Jairus began to put his clothes back on.

"Ugh, You ripped my shirt." I said rolling my eyes.

"Well.... your the one who dug his nails in my back." Jairus responded laughing but rubbing his lightly scared back.

"Oh shut up!"

"Yeahh... thats what I was telling you but you was too busy moaning my name. 'Jairus wait!', 'Slow down', 'You too deep'" He mocked me.

He was making the moments after waaaay less awakward so I was glad he kept the jokes going but i've had enough of them.

I threw a rag at him and he continued to laugh. After we finished getting dressed, we walked into Mariama's room to see everyone still knocked out.
