Torn Between The Two | Drake & Chris Brown

Chapter 23

Continuation from last chapter

"Man of the house? Nigga that doesn't give you the right to be home so late!" I yelled, letting out all my emotions from these past two days.

Chris got up furiously, and went downstairs. "Don't fucking follow me either." He yelled, after I got up from the bed, about to follow him downstairs.

His voice was filled with anger. It was something I had never heard from him before. He was always so gentle to me, but now it seems like he was a totally different person. It frightened me, and I sat back down on the bed.

After an hour, I thought that Chris would come back upstairs. But he didn't. He didn't come back at all that night. I felt guilty that now he would be sleeping on the couch instead of me. I knew that he was wrong, but I still had love for him. I was the type of person who would baby their child even when they did wrong just because I loved them. I knew it was wrong and wouldn't help them in the long run, but it was just in my nature.

The next day, I woke up and went downstairs. Chris was making pancakes. When I reached the bottom step, Chris glanced at me and then looked back down at the stove. I sighed a little and walked into the kitchen.

"Look baby, I'm sorry for acting the way I did yesterday. I was really angry and couldn't control my anger, so I had to leave and go downstairs." Chris said, putting the stove fire on low and focusing primarily on me.

"I forgive you Chris, but --" I was cut off.

"Good. Now come give me a hug." Chris pulled me into a hug. I missed his hugs.

"Wait Chris, I want to--" He cut me off again.

"Breakfast is ready, let's eat!" Chris put the plates on the table and sat me in a chair.

It was weird. It's like Chris already knew what I was going to say, and he was avoiding the situation so he kept cutting me off.

"Chris," I said, looking at him put a forkful of food in his mouth.

"Yeah? Is the food not good or something? I'll make you something different," He asked, after swallowing the food.

"It's fine, but I was wondering if we could...um...talk about these past couple of days?" I asked nervously.

"Um..." Chris sighed, looking down at his plate. "I'd rather not. Just for...um...times sake. I know you're probably busy trying to find a music video to dance in, and I have to go to the studio again." Chris said, getting up and quickly throwing away his food to get ready.

"Well, maybe later then?" I asked, watching him make his way to the stairs.

"Yeah, later." Chris said jogging up the stairs.

I sighed and threw away my food. I barely had eaten anything but wasn't really in the mood for eating. I got up and reached my phone. Jaycee had sent me a billion text messages.

Dani!

You did it girl!

Watch TV

You're all over it

Everyone wants you to do a collaboration with them!

Girl you're famous!

At first, I had no idea what she was talking about. Then I remembered, MY TWEET! I was getting tired of no work, so I tweeted "I loved doing that collaboration with @Drake. Any one else willing to collab with me? No one? Okay." It was supposed to be a joke, though! I didn't realize that people would really hit me up wanting to collab with me. Everyone was talking about it. They liked my first collab, and they want to see more of my work.

Drake had also texted me.

Hey, I saw your tweet. I wondering if maybe you would like to collab with me again. I loved collabing with you also and hope that all because we aren't together doesn't mean that we can't do business together. If you turn down my offer, I understand. Think about it, hit me back up.

I didn't know what to say. I knew that Chris wouldn't want me to collab with Drake for the fear that we may sleep with each other again. But I really wanted to further my career. I knew that at the end of the day, it would be my decision. But that didn't make things any better.

I waited until Chris came back from work so that I could talk to him. He still looked uneasy, but he didn't avoid the conversation. He knew that eventually we would have this conversation.

"Chris, before I start talking about these last few days, I want to talk about something I found out today." I started, feeling my palms begin to sweat.

"Yeah babe?" Chris shifted in his chair. I guess he could feel the nervousness in the room too.

"Well, I had made a tweet about how I wanted to do another collaboration with someone, and a lot of people have been hitting me up. One, in particular, was Drake. He wants to do another collaboration with me. Now I know you probably don't want me to work with him, but I really want to further my career. At the end of the day I know it's my decision, but I wanted to at least get your opinion on it." I said, feeling a weight being lifted off my chest.

"Um, I don't know. I know nothing would probably happen but..." Chris replied, putting his head down.

"Nothing will happen. I promise. I just want to chase my dreams and if doing a collaboration with Drake will help me get there, then I want to do it." I said, defending myself. I had to admit that I was pretty afraid at what Chris would reply, but I was proud that I had stood up for what I believed in.

"If that's what you want to do," Chris started, "then I'll support you."

I smiled. Chris was going to trust me.

He smiled back and hugged me.

"Thanks baby," I said. He got up and walked into the living room and cut on the TV.

I didn't even bother talking to him about the last few days. I thought that our relationship already got closer from that one conversation. I didn't want to jeopardize that.
