U, Me & She

Chapter 11 - Blowin' My High

  Dana closes the apartment door behind he and herself as she takes a moment to come to the realization that this moment has finally come.  She exhales as she releases the door knob from her grip and asks Lorenzo if he wanted anything to eat or drink.

  He responds with "I'm good."  As he makes himself comfortable on her couch.  Her nerves were on edge as she had the urge to jump on him and molest him along with the urge to smoke her weed, then jump on him and molest him.

  In an effort to maintain her composure, she refrains from both and sits on the far end of the couch watching him as she nonchalantly gawks at him in disbelief.  She thinks to herself "Damn, he's super fine." As she cannot identify any flaws in his features.

  He sees her in the same manner as his heart races in knowing what could possibly occur before sunset.  "Baby, I just want to get something off of my chest." He says as he makes his ongoing thoughts vocalized.  "Go ahead baby." She says, not sure where this is headed.  "I just want you to know that I appreciate you coming into my life the way that you did and feel that everything happens for a reason." She slips off her shoes and stretches her legs with her feet sitting in his lap while listening.

  He feels himself becoming aroused as he slides her feet slightly off of his lap while subconsciously rubbing them out of admiration.  Trying to collect his thoughts, he pauses for a moment, then makes an attempt to continue. "I know that what we are doing, isn't right....but, I can't...." *Cell phone rings* "Hold that thought....Hello?" As he answers his phone.

  Looking baffled, she watches as he takes his phone call to her patio while putting his finger up gesturing for her to wait a second.  "Really?" She thinks to herself as she figured this may take a while and wanted to take advantage of this moment by grabbing her brand new lighter along with her freshly rolled joint.

  The lighter worked exceptionally well as the aroma immediately consumes the entire room.  The smoke came rolling out of her nostrils as she instantly feels its effects.  She takes yet another drag holding it in for a second as the potency forces her to cough excessively.  Coming close to coughing herself sick, she walks around the couch for a second to regroup as Lorenzo comes back in from the patio.

  "You ok?" He asks standing half way inside as she nods her head and gives him the thumbs up.  He fans the smoke as he leaves the patio door partially open for ventilation.  "The question is, are 'You' good?" She says to him insinuating that he was questioned by his wife of his whereabouts.

   "I'm good. My homie Jay was just calling me talking about a situation he almost got into tonight with somebody.  I had to talk a little sense in him before he got himself into trouble.  He's a little bit crazy." He says as he reaches his hand out gesturing for her to pass the joint to him.

"You smoke?" She questions as she passes it to him.  He holds it sideways and says "I dabble....." with a smirk on his face before placing it between his lips and taking a heavy drag that made the lit end illuminate excessively.  As the smoke engulfs the entire room, they trade gut wrenching coughs and become heavily under the influence. 

An hour later:

  They both sit slouched along the couch sporting a matching pair of half open bloodshot eyes.  He sits on the floor with his back leaned against the couch as she sits atop the couch with his head resting in her lap.  Running her fingers through his hair, she asks "Where does your wife think you are now?"  He says "She probably think I'm over Jay's.  I usually am.  I left right after she tried to go through my phone and remembered that you lived in the Colony apartments. So I figured I'd stop by and pay you a visit."   *Cell phone rings* "Hold that thought....Hello?"

  As he answers his phone once again as she removes her fingers from his hair and looks down at him in disbelief.  She remained silent out of respect, but was thinking to herself "This better not be Jay again....I swear."  He gets up and heads to the patio once again sliding the glass door shut behind him as he continues his conversation.

  She sees where this night is headed and stands from her seated position, heads towards her bedroom while turning off all of the lights along the way, and closes the bedroom door behind her leaving the house pitch black as Lorenzo carries on with his conversation....
