Noelle

"We need to talk." Don said leaning back on the side of my car.

I looked him up and down like he was crazy cause he must be. I haven't heard from him since my birthday and now he wants to talk. How did he even know where I was.

"Did you follow me here?" I asked crossing my arms over my chest.

"What? No!" He said hopping off my car and stood in front of me. "I just got done doing a studio session a few doors down and saw your car." He explained.

I nodded slowly, still a lil unconvinced about his so called alibi. "So what you want Don cause I gotta be somewhere right now." I said with an attitude.

"So that's how it is? You given the cold shoulder?" He asked sarcastically.

"Yeah!, that's how it is when you don't call nobody after basically ruining their birthday."

"That was ya lil boyfriend that ruined it baby doll. He was the one that thought he could get away with hitting me on some bitch shit. But don't worry, He's ass is gonna get dealt with when I see him."

"Excuse me? You ain't gonna do a damn thing to him." I said poking his chest with my manicured nail. Before I could even blink, Don grabbed my hand and slammed me against my own car door.

"Your ass is really annoying yo. Putting your fucking has on me and shit. Dumb bitch." He said chucking maliciously as I tried to get outta his tight grasp. "The next time I ain't gon' be Mr. Nice guy no more. You tell ya boyfriend he betta watch out cuz I ain't the one to play with." He leaned down into my neck and begin kissing and biting it.

"GET THE FUCK OFF OF ME!" I yelled as I still tried to wiggle out his arms. H finally slowly got up off of me with a huge smirk on his face.

"See you around." He said as he blew a kiss my way and hopped into his car.

As he finally pulled off I felt the burning sensation on my neck. I lifted up my hand to feel a large hickie was beginning to form.

Shit I thought as I got into my car.

I pulled down the overhead mirror to see how noticeable it was. I grabbed my foundation out of my purse to see if I void try and cover it. It was a sad attempt of course cause you could still see it. I decided to put on the black neck chocker I had bought, to cover it up so Michael won't see it. I grabbed a tissue to wipe away the tears that started to fall.

Now I understand why everyone was warning me about him. I'm so stupid! How could've been so naive to not see this coming. I know one thing for sure is that I need to hide this damn hickie before Michael sees it and go bat-wall crazy. The last thing I want is for Michael to ruin his career over my stupidity.

I pulled into the garage of our condo after doing a little shopping. I mean I did tell him I was going out with Monica, which reminds me I have to send a text to her to be my alibi. I'm pretty sure she'll ask me why, but I can't tell her yet til I get the test back of my so-called 'pregnancy'. After re-adjusting my chocker I grabbed my bags from the passenger seat and head towards the condo entrance.
