Sean Paul~ She Doesn't Mind
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Brooklyn~
We arrive home near the midnight rein, and the house was filled with roses, and all kinds of scented candles... but the thing was, someone else was here but me and Tristan...
"Yeah, That'll be me." Leah comes walking out from the corner of the room.
I frown, stepping back a bit, this wasn't the surprise I would've liked...
"Leah? What are you doing here?" I ask her.
"Please hear me out?" She asks me.
I look to Tristan. "You made a nice touch with the flowers and candles, but you rotted out the best of it by bringing her here." I say, sure, I was rude by that... but Leah wasn't my friend, not since that night.
"Just hear her out, you can do what you want after it." He says, and walks out the door.
I sigh, and turn back to Leah. "What do you want?" I ask her.
"That night, and the week before. I was out of line."
"Yeah, I know that perfectly well, the question was, why you're back?" I ask again, angry.
"I'm back to ask for your forgiveness..." She sighs. "As much as I hate it."
"That's the thing, if you'd just said that, then I would've thought some about forgiving you, but then... I don't want to forgive someone who doesn't mean it." I shrug, opening the door. "Here's the best way out, would you rather just leave on your own? Or do you want a kick, or head start?" I ask.
She gasps, narrowing her gaze. "Wow, harsh."
"You lied, and betrayed our friendship even before I said those words, why would I even hear you out now?" I ask her.
"I just--"
"GET OUT Leah." I say harshly.
She sighs. "I'm sorry, and that's genuine."
"Like I'd believe you." I shake my head at her.
She sucks in a harsh breath and speeds out of the house, I take my own breath and close the door behind her harshly... goodbye Leah.
Tristan comes in after minutes and looks around the place. "At least you didn't do a big fight over it, I'd be calling the fire department." He says.
I stare at him. "You."
"It was her idea, maybe it wasn't the best one. But the candles and flowers are still here." He grins.
"And?" I ask him kindly.
"And, we could have the dinner that's in the oven."
"You left the oven on when we left!?" I scream out. "No wonder you'd be thinking about calling the fire department!" I shriek, running to the kitchen.
I hear him chuckle from behind me as I open the oven, and I bend down to fetch the food... but what I found... was so much different from food!
I take out the box, not bigger than my hand, it was wrapped beautifully, and I turn to face Tristan, leaning on the door frame.
"Open it." He grins widely.
I smile, unwrapping it to find the most beautiful swim suit invented, a black slim one, it was great to the touch. I laugh, looking up at him.
"What's this?" I ask him, grinning.
"A swimsuit to fit the special occasion." He says.
"Occasion?" I smile.
"One word. Black Sea."
I gasp, Omfg! "You're kidding!" I scream.
"Not one bit." He chuckles, walking towards me and giving me two tickets. Two fucking plane tickets.
"You're not kidding." I whisper, looking at the tickets, amazed.
"Of course I wouldn't kid about the Black Sea, I've been to it once, it's a dream to float around in it too."
"You're crazy." I laugh.
"As long as you'll be crazy with me."
"Of course I will!" I jump. "When are we leaving?"
"Tomorrow morning."
I widen my eyes. "I haven't packed."
"No need for that, Selene packed your cases."
I laugh. "Dammit Tristan, you always amaze me."
"That's my job sweetheart." He pulls me in for a sweet kiss. "Love you."
I giggle. "I love you too Tristan."
Oh...my...god... I was going to swim in the Black Sea... how rad was that? :)
