Vivian leaned in and kissed Lexis on the lips.
Lexis' eyes remained shut. "Stop." He quietly said.
She didn't. She leaned in again and pressed her lips against his, then turned over him and went for a more desperate and longer kiss.
Lexis sighed, not cooperating. He pushed her off and straightened to his feet off the bed.
"Why?" Vivian insisted.
Lexis pulled on his shirt. "This isn't what I had in mind. I apologize."
"What's on your mind then? Rihanna?"
Lexis looked at her. "That's not her real name, is it?"
Caught off guard by the question, Vivian hesitated, then denied. "Yes, it is."
Lexis stared at her for a few seconds more, then went back to getting dressed. "Whether it is or not, I'm not interested in her anymore. I have my own problems to deal with."
Fayth has more problems than you'll ever do. Ha, if you only knew.
"Why can't it be me? Aren't I comfortable? I don't ask for anything. I'm not asking for all that love shit. I just want us to be together, comfortably."
"No."
"Then why are we doing this?!"
Lexis, who began packing, dropped the bag he was holding and looked at Vivian. "I can't sleep alone. That's all you need to know."
Vivian looked away, smirking, then looked back at Lexis. "So you're telling me this entire time you were just using me?"
Lexis didn't answer. He only resumed packing.
"Do you know how many people I screwed over in my life? Do you know how many people had near death experiences because of me?" And it was all because of her. "The horrid person that I am is now reaching out to a person, only for the second time in my life, can't you–"
Lexis glanced up at her. Studying her body language and face expression, he asked. "Was your first Rihanna?"
There is something she's hiding.
Again, she became flustered. "I thought you weren't going to question anything about her anymore."
Lexis straightened up and sighed. "I thought I could use you without the need to repay you. Perhaps I was wrong." He threw the bag over his shoulder and made his way across the room. "You can leave here whenever you'd like."
