Lustful Dreams
Chapter 25

"I'm coming!" Norman yelled down to the door, taking the stairs two at a time. He turned the corner and tripped over Eye, earning a nasty pissed off hiss from him. "Well move then you ass." Norman flipped him off and flipped the peep hole open, whoever it was had gotten past security, he wouldn't even need that security guard if some crazy man didn't hide under his porch and jump out at him wanting his autograph. Scared him to death and that was the last straw, he refused to move. Loving his house in Atlanta, it was everything he searched for before he moved from New York. He'd put a lot of work into it and he wasn't going to move. Norman saw a head of long black hair and smiled, unlocking the door and opening it. She turned around and grinned back at him, stepping into his house. Norman closed the door and she hugged him hard, her arms around his neck. "Oh it's been forever Norman." She laughed when he picked her up in the hug. "Yes it has, how you been Kim?" He set her back down and walked further into the house. "Oh just busy, the usual shit. How about you?" She set her bag down on the couch. "Oh good, we start filming this weekend, gonna be busy as hell plus Mingus gets to come down tomorrow." She sat down on the couch and he sat on the opposite side facing her. "Oh that's good, Helena gonna be coming this time?" She was trying not to laugh, "I hope not, told her not to. I'm over that shit with her but Mingus saw her looking at flights so I gotta call her sometime and make sure." He loved how after all these years she was still the same, never changing their friendship. She leaned back on the couch and sat up quickly, he watched her turn and pull something out of the couch with a laugh. She turned and had a bright pink thong pinched between her fingers. Norman felt his face get red hot, and she tossed it at him. Norman caught it and tucked it away into his pocket, trying to avoid her gaze. "So Norman, you finally embraced the power of the thong?" She laughed and snorted at the end. "Of course not, it isn't mine." "Oh don't tell me you let Jon use your place again." She gave him a dirty look, "no, I've recently started seeing someone." He blushed again, not sure why this time. "Oh that's wonderful Norman, I'm happy for you." "Thanks. So what did you need to talk to me about? It sounded kinda urgent." She opened her bag and handed him a paper, it was a rough sketch of her new album cover. "Oh your new album is coming out soon, that's awesome." "Yeah quicker than I thought, been filming my last song but been having some issues with my featured guys." She put her head in her hands, "you always were picky when it came to that stuff, what's the problem?" "Its just the video is different than my usual ones and none of the auditioned guys can handle it." Music videos weren't a foreign topic for Norman, he'd been in more than a few over the years and he knew some people just didn't work out no matter how many chance you gave them. "Okay so how can I help? Norman asked making her smile, "could you do it please? Id feel more comfortable with you and I know this isn't your first time either." "Uh sure I'd be happy to help. When do we start?" She jumped up and hugged him, "Oh thank you so much Norman, you're a life savor." "No problem girl." "Can we do it next week sometime, maybe Wednesday?" "Sure, Mingus will be gone by then, so I'll be good to go." Norman heard Katherin come down the stairs and he stood up, walking towards her. She was dressed in a dark pair of jeans, a shirt so tight it showed off her breasts perfectly, molding to every curve. "Damn baby you look good." She smiled and turned her cheek so he could kiss the side of her neck, smelling her Chanel number 5 perfume, "thanks. Who's here?" Norman took her hand and led her back to the living room, he felt Katherin stiffen when she saw Kim on the couch. Kim turned and smiled standing up, "Katherin, this is who I was expecting, she's a good friend of mine. Kim this is my girlfriend Katherin." Kim stood up and held her hand out, a smile on her face. She was happy for him. Katherin shook her hand, trying to match her smile. "Its nice to meet you Katherin, I'm sorry to barge in. I didn't know he'd have company, please excuse me." "Oh no please stay, I didn't know he was expecting you until last night. I'm just gonna go have some coffee, it's nice to meet you." Norman smiled and kissed her cheek before she walked out, "Oh Norman she's so beautiful." He blushed again, "yes she really is." "Well if I could just get that piece of art from you I'll head out." "Sure, this way." Norman led her down the hallway, stopping at the last door and unlocking it, he turned the light on and heard Kim gasp, "wow this is amazing Norman." The whole room was filled with every piece of art he owned, most was his own work and others he bought. Paintings from top to bottom on the walls, easels and a paint area in the corner. Pain splashed on the walls from the last time he painted, it had been quiet some time. "Thanks, I need to start getting back into it." She walked the room and looked around until she saw the painting they'd discussed, he'd thrown a clean sheet over it and tied it up so no dirt could ruin it. She picked it up and they left the room, " transfer the money into your account if that's alright." "Oh sure not a problem, I know you're good for it." He smiled and walked her to the door, "well call me and let me know when and where and I'll be there." She grabbed his hand and squeezed it, "you're a great friend Norman, thanks again." He nodded and waved as she left, he shut the door and went to find Katherin.
