You walked into the crowded elevator, sighing when you noticed people you weren't entirely fond of in it. Damian was away at a game and if he was here, you would've been exchanging glances at one another and in fits of giggles.

But he's not here. So your time was theirs and there was no giggling in the building's only elevator. What you didn't understand, though, is why the elevator was only filled with them when you were with Damian.

It was like some kind of weird game destiny plays with you when Damian has his back turned. You didn't even understand why people from your apartment building didn't like you very much. You were nice and you were never creating a ruckus in your apartment. Maybe it was because you were getting it on with Damian Lillard?

People always told you that you weren't good enough to be with him or he was only passing his time with you. The best one you've heard was that he was too 'carefree' to be with a potential successful woman like you.

When you got off your floor, you let out a heavy breath you didn't even know you needed to let out. You turned on your heel and started walking to your apartment.

He always told you to never worry your 'pretty little' mind because he has it all under control. But as much as you liked him sugarcoating things for you, you knew for a damn fact that he didn't have control of anything. He could defend you all he wanted on social media or his interviews, but he can never stop people from telling you otherwise.

But it was okay. You kept your mind open and only kept one-upping them. Damian posted pictures of you everywhere of him spoiling you like you deserved and you posted pictures of him whenever you were taking him out with your hard earned money.

It was a constant give and take between you two and there was no relationship you've ever been fond of in a long time.

Your mom loved Damian. If possible, she could even love Damian more than she loved you. Your dad, though, was a different topic all together. He didn't think that Damian could give you what you deserve especially with him rarely ever being around and always being surrounded by thousands of women every night.

Sometimes, you even started to doubt yourself. You started to wonder if your dad was right and if the critics were right about you not being good enough. At the end of the day, you manage to fight everyone's doubts and even yours. You stay and you wait for him to come home every night.

And it's worth it.

You unlocked your front door and dragged yourself in, sighing heavily. Damian didn't get home until that night so you had all afternoon to sulk and pig out all you want. You liked having your alone time but you knew it could literally drive you insane when you had alone time way too much.

Being left alone with your thoughts and no one to push the negative ones away had a huge impact on you. Damian noticed this a few months into your relationship so he always made sure that he's calling and sending you texts; coming home a bit earlier than he's supposed to to be around you.
