LIFE

chapter 17

"Are you ready to hear me out?" Dre asked at the dining table as we ate a bowl of cereal.

I sighed and looked at him.

"look what I said before was true. I do love you and that shit scares me. it's like a different love that I've had for anyone else. I wasn't expecting it, which is crazy to me. yea I had sex with and stayed with her because I thought maybe I was tripping. I thought I just missed your sex and that I could get over it with someone but it didn't work. Hell seeing you at the store that day and then that night tore me apart knowing that I caused your pain. look I get that you probably don't wanna fuck with me anymore but I had to let you know"

"Andre I get what you are saying.. but when I went to your house and saw those hickies all over you.. how do you think that makes me feel. that's like you pouring your heart out to me and I say I feel the same way yet when you come to my house you catch me having sex with Mark.. all because I didn't want to accept my feelings... that's messed up"

he rubbed his face and sighed.

"...Yeaa" he mumbled.

I bit my lip and said " the next time you do something like this... it's no apology.. im moving on Dre... the only reason why I'm forgiving you is because I love you too much to have to get over doing so" I said with a smile.

he looked up with wide eyes, as if he was surprised
"for real?"

I just laughed. He looked so damn happy.

he smirked and winked at me

I already know what's on his mind

"Uh-Uh no sir. Mariah should be over here any min now"

he just smirked

"It's cool.... damn I'm so happy you forgived me. you had a nigga all depressed and shit.. smoking every damn night"

I chuckled

"Yeaa but you wasn't the only one. I was eating everything in sight...I didn't even know I was an emotional eater"

"but shid it all went straight to your booty" he said and we laughed

"That was so corny"

"I know" he said standing up. we put our bowls away and laid on the couch.

"thank you baby" he mumbled

"For what?" I asked

"for everything" he said and I smiled..

"I love you"

"I love you too baby" he said with kiss

5 months later

"This house is amazing!" I cooed as we walked in.

Dre insisted that we moved out of the condo and he bought us a house. It's absolutely beautiful! It was a 5 bed room, 4 bathroom home with a pool in the back yard from the previous owners. The master bed room was huge! it has a his and her's closet and the bath room was big enough to have my makeup area, a shower and huge tub. Dre even had a man cave in the basement. the previous owners used it as a entertainment room. I love this house!!!!!!! (house in media)

"Baby!" Dre said as I sat on our couch.

We stayed in a hotel for maybe 2 weeks and within that time he got everything together. From decorations, to the type of marble for the counter tops. He moved all of our clothes, bought new furniture and filled the fridge & pantry with food.

"Yea" I said looking up at him.

"Who the man?" he asked admiring the house.

"you MY man baby" I said biting my lip and looking at him. he raised his eyebrow and shook his head.
