Her💜

Ch.21 Pressured

*Maya in the Media*

Work went by a lot faster today, finding any excuse to see Brooklyn had been in my plans all day. But she'd been busy with patients all day, so whatever plan I had fell short.
************************************
Finally after 9hrs of in the delivery room, my patients baby boy had arrived with no complications. All I can think about is Jordyn, I miss her and haven't seen her all day.
Manuel: "You did good Doctor Johnson." Nothing short of amazing
Brooklyn: thank you, and great job with assisting me and keeping the new mom calm.
Manuel: what? Are you being nice to me finally?
Brooklyn: I'm always nice to you Manuel, you're just an asshole at times lol. Besides I'm in a good mood today.
Manuel: Hmm... A good mood ehh? Does it have anything to do with that Hickey on your neck and Benji?? Manuel laughing
Brooklyn: Brooklyn gasps* turning red omg what hickey?
Manuel: the hickey on your lower neck. By your collar bone
Brooklyn: I'm going to kill her, I thought to myself. Jordyn knew that hickey was there this morning. *Groaning out loud** I gotta go Manuel later...
I see Brooklyn headed to her office, so I quickly follow behind her. As she's closing the door.
Jordyn: "I missed you today hugging her from the back." Hearing Brooklyn let out a frustrating sigh. I asked her what was wrong?
Brooklyn: Jordyn let me go!
Jordyn: okayyy? What did I do?
Brooklyn: "THIS Jordyn." Brooklyn showing me the Hickey, I discovered this morning in the shower.
Jordyn: I did that playing dumb?
Brooklyn narrowed her eyes at me.
Brooklyn: this is not the time the time for you to play with me Jordyn.
Jordyn: okay! Damn you're mad about me putting a hickey on you?
Brooklyn: *sighs* no Jordyn! I'm mad that you put it in a noticeable spot. Thank God Manuel saw it, and not my boss. He thinks Benji put it there!
I cringed a little at hearing that name. "no the fuck he didn't either, clearly." That's all me!
Brooklyn: Really Jordyn? Are you bragging about this?
Jordyn: No, but I don't want to hear, nor think about that nigga lips on any parts of you.
Brooklyn: You have a whole girlfriend you're cheating on with me.  What if he did put the hickey there, you have no say so over my love life until you figure out WTF? You want/need to do. But that's another conversation, there won't be a next time until you set this shit right.
Jordyn: you're pressuring me, but I don't see you telling that nigga Benji about me!!!
Brooklyn: don't turn this shit around on me, I'm not in a relationship! And I have absolutely no problem telling him I'm in love with you, and I've been sleeping with you. But why should I? What am I getting out of it? I can't fucking have you? So what's the point. What you need to do is figure out who the fuck you want ME or Her? You say you're still in love with me, and that's quite evident. But yet when you're off on the weekends, you're back with her. No matter how much I love you Jordyn, I won't share you with nobody. Break up with her, or we just remain strictly friends. If we can't be friends, it'll break my heart but I won't settle or play second to anyone.
Jordyn: I don't know how to break up with her. I... I don't want to hurt her.
Brooklyn: Jordyn get out my office, somebody is gonna be hurt regardless! Until you can make your decision, its all business and work with us.
Without saying another word Jordyn kisses Brooklyn on her cheek and walks out. Sending Brooklyn a quick text: I love you, so I'm gonna make this right, I know who I want and that's you.
Brooklyn reads the message from Jordyn and responds: I love you too Jordyn, and I trust that you'll make the right decision. I'm not going anywhere 💜
Jordyn: are you still mad at me love?
Brooklyn: no, you just get on my nerves sometimes but I'm not mad.
Jordyn: can I have a hug then pleeeaaassseeee???
Brooklyn: *sighs* yes you can, but after this I don't want to see you until you go take care of business.
Jordyn: yes love 💜
Jordyn walks in and give Brooklyn a long tight hug, they stand there seems like eternity in the embrace. Brooklyn pulls away smiling, "Okay go", Brooklyn tells Jordyn.

"No goodbye kiss?" Jordyn says.

"No Jordyn, I mean it."

Pouting, Jordyn says, "Okay, I'm missing you already babe."

"Um hm you still not getting a kiss."
Frustrated Jordyn pulls Brooklyn closer to her, looks her in her eyes. "Brooklyn Jehlani Johnson, you frustrate me beyond measures. But I'm doing this for us okay, I love you. I want you, you going to be my wife one day."

Jordyn hungrily kisses Brooklyn parted lips. Brooklyn tries to protest, but gives up as Jordyn deepened the kiss. Jordyn continues to assault Brooklyn lips, until Brooklyn clamps down on Jordyn's bottom lip.
Jordyn: Ouch! Shit! Why did you do that?
Brooklyn: you're not slick, sweet talking me so you could kiss me.

Smiling, Jordyn looks at Brooklyn and says "But babe, everything I said is true." I am going to marry you, just wait and see." She finally leaves the office, heading back to Jacksonville to break the news to Maya.
