CYN

I woke up to my alarm going off and Ray's arms wrapped around me. I tried getting out of bed as quietly as possible so i didn't wake him up but you know my clumsy ass had to trip over Prince's bed. "Good morning baby, where ya going? he asked. " I have to get ready to leave, my flight leaves in 3 hours" i said walking into the bathroom. Ray got up and followed me. He wrapped his arms around my waist from behind and started kissing my neck "oh yeah, i forgot. It must have slipped my mind" he said with a hint of sadness in his voice. " I'll be back before you know it" i said turning around kissing him. "yeah i guess." I went to give him another kiss but he moved his face. "I'm not kissing you until you brush your teeth with that stank morning breath" and he left the bathroom and laid on the bed. I followed behind and sat on him. "Babe i know your upset i'm leaving but you know how important my work is to me" " Yeah i know i'm just gonna miss you that's all." "I'm gonna miss you to fat boy." He smiled and gave me a quick kiss. "Go brush your teeth stinky" he said laughing. I hit him playfully and got up to get ready while he went back to bed.

I was doing the final touches on my hair when i heard someone banging on the front door. "Babe can you grab that, i'm just finishing up in the bathroom" "I'm already on it" Next thing i hear is Daphne loud mouth yelling "Cynthia Santana were going to be late if you don't hurry your slow ass up!" "I'm coming damn." i said as i was turning all the lights off in the house. Ray grabbed my bags and started putting them in the car. "Damn babe who knew you had all that muscle underneath all that chub" " Ha Ha your so funny" He said mugging me. That's one thing i love about my relationship with Ray, we can talk shit back and forth to each other without feelings getting hurt. We got in the car and headed to the airport. This traffic is ridiculous already this morning. Sorry by Beyonce started playing "This my song, turn this shit up!" i yelled to Daph. I started dancing and singing and Ray just rolled his eyes. " It is way to early in the morning for you to be this loud Cynthia" I just glared at him and continued singing. I know he gets annoyed with my high energy level but i don't care. I'm 23, blessed and living. Life is way to short to be serious all the time.

The rest of the ride was filled with me singing, Ray huffing and puffing and Daphne laughing. We finally pulled up to the airport and i got out getting ready to grab my bags when ray pulled my arm "Cyn what are you doing? You know i got your bags" " Yeah that's what i thought" He stopped and pulled me into him.

Ray "I'm sorry babe you know i'm grumpy first thing in the morning."

Cyn "yeah i know but you need to loosen up a little."

Ray " I will just not at 8 in the morning lol."

Cyn "Yeah yeah grumpy pants."

Ray "You know i love you right?" pulling me into a kiss

Cyn "Yeah i know" kissing him back

Ray "I'm not gonna front and act like im not a little worried though."

Cyn "Worried? about what babe?"

Ray "You being in LA with your ex girlfriend."

Cyn "Really? It's been over 3 years since we've spoke i'm not checking for that girl.

Ray "I know but she was somebody that you loved and i know how persuasive she can be."

Cyn " You have nothing to worry about. Your who i love and want to be with."

Ray "Just promise me you won't let her get to you if you guys do cross paths."

Cyn "I promise. But i gotta go babe before Daphne drags me by my hair lol"

Ray "I love you Cyn."

Cyn "I love you Ray."

We kissed goodbye and i couldn't help but feel a little upset about what he was saying. Why does everybody always think i'm going to let Erica get to me? I'm passed that situation. It's just frustrating. I'll always have love for her because she was a big part of my life at one point, but that doesn't mean i'm still in love with the girl.

Me and Daph finally boarded the plane. I wasn't really in the mood to talk so i put my headphones in closed my eyes and just relaxed untill we landed.

Please lord let this trip go smooth.
