The Dark Side Of Him

『 2. Friendzoned 』

I woke up from the dreadful dream screaming with tears running down my eyes. I turned to the wall, punching it. My fist pierced through the thick walls of my bedroom. I cried out in frustration as I fell to the floor cringing, as my fist bled. I felt like a horrible person. Suddenly, the sun bled through the curtains. It was a very bright morning. I felt someone's presence. It was her. I heard her sweet soft voice. " Come follow me, Ronnie... " I followed the beautiful lady wearing white. It was her.... I cried out to her as she began to fade. " Believe, and I shall still be here, with you. " She led me to my door, something nudged me to open it, I was afraid of what could lie behind the door. I slid my eyes closed and had opened the door in front of me.

It was her.....

Though, it wasn't her. It was the girl from last night in the elevator. " Well, good morning. " I smiled as her gaze met upon mine. She looked up for a second, her face went red. Suddenly, she walked away fast. I questioned why she ran away from me... Was I ugly...? Oh Little Mama, you will be mine. Even if I have to seduce you, I thought. I chased after her. Suddenly, she entered a hotel room. Damn it, I can't just barge in. She could think I'm a pedophile or a thief. Well I guess I am a thief because I'm going to steal her heart. I knocked on the door. What was I doing?! I can't just knock and have nothing to say. Why am I getting the jitters? I have this strange sensation in the pit of my stomach.... Am I falling in love again? I can't. I promised her I wouldn't fall in love with anybody else.

The door opened to the beautiful lady. She was so beautiful. I got to see the girl again. Her dark beautiful hair was deeply complemented by her grey- with a hint of crystal blue- eyes. Her pink lips were so tempting to kiss. I leaned down about to kiss her. Suddenly, the door was slammed against my face. " OW! WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT?! " I screamed.

I heard giggling from the other side of the wall. " Well you shouldn't try to kiss random strangers.... You'll probably get herpes.... " I blushed. Did I really try to kiss her?

" I couldn't help it, your lips were so tempting to kiss.... " I tried to play it cool, but end up having my voice squeak at the end. My voice squeaks when I get nervous.

" Oh god, another pedophile. I should go call the cops.... " She spoke.

" NO! Please don't. " I shot back.

She giggled. " I was just kidding.... "

Oh, haha, she thinks she's funny. " Whatever. Can I treat you out to coffee?" Please say yes, please!

" Hmm, sure. I'll go get ready. "

" Okay, love. " Urghhhh, this is going to be a while so I sat on the floor. Why do girls take forever? I mean, little mama, you're cute and I'm cute and it don't matter what you wear, you could be naked for all I care! Oh.... Wait. My face went red just thinking about what I had just said.

" Hello? Earth to Mr.Pedo? " I heard a sweet and innocent voice call out. It was my little mama.

" I am not a pedo! " I stared at her as I got up and brushed the dirt off of me.

She giggled. " But I don't know your name. Haha, so let's try this again and this time don't try to kiss me. "

" Aight, but it's kinda hard not trying to kiss you..... " Her face was so cute when she blushed. " Anyways, I'm Banks. Ronnie Banks, to be exact. "

Her eyes widen. " Ronnie Banks as the son of the owner of Banks from the electronic industry? " Did I mentioned my family owns an over one million company? It isn't a big deal.

" Yes, now what's your name? " I smiled. Hopefully, she doesn't like me for my money because frankly, my parents gives me shares but honestly I don't want them.

" My name is Johanna. Call me Joey or like Jo. " She giggled as she avoided my eye contact when saying her name. It became silent when her giggle faded away. I wonder what she was hiding... " Anyways let's get going. "

" Oh my god, this pastry is delicious. " She spoke before shoving the whole croissant in her mouth. I laughed.

" Your face has crumbs all over it. That ain't cute Little Mama, that ain't cute. " I smirked as I took a napkin and wiped the crumbs off of her beautiful face.

" How many times do I have to tell you to not call me Little Mama? " She sighed. " This nigga.... "

" Nigga? It's because I'm black, huh! It's because of these nigga lips, isn't it! " Suddenly it got quiet, and then we bursted out laughing. " Hey Johanna, I know this is a bit sudden but I love spending time with you.... Will you be my girlfriend? " She looked at me.

" I'll pass. " She giggled. " I rather be just friends for now. " She got up and had pushed her chair in and hugged me. She softly spoke in my ear, " You just got friendzoned. " Then, she broke the hug and walked away.

I sat there, thinking about how I was too forward. I just wanted to be with her. I can't stand being away from her. God, why am I thinking about her so much? I'm still madly in love with Juliet but... Something is making me want to love Johanna. I don't even know anymore. I looked down at a napkin that was on the table we both sat at. There were numbers on the napkin, and below that, it said call me with a heart. I'm not friendzoned! I got up and started doing a happy/victory dance. Suddenly, I stopped and realized I was in public, everyone was staring at me. I grabbed the napkin and made my leave.

Friendzoned for now, I suppose, but I shall win your heart, even if I have to kidnap you and tie you up and make you live in my closet. You will love me one day. Hopefully.

It's been a handful of hours since the date. I was standing outside in my usual spot, smoking my cigarettes. I was daydreaming about her. She was so innocent and so pure. Maybe I should give her a call. I took my phone out, dialed her number, and had called. I dropped my phone.

" Dad? "
