Proud - Keep You

Chapter 31

Dominique’s POV:

“Oh Reesh,” I giggle as he smiles “you alright?” “Yeah, how are you?” “I’m good thanks,” we begin and finish our conversation as he walks past me, as I frown. I needed to flirt, I am addicted to it.

“Aston, you look amazing today,” “thank you,” I begin a conversation with him, as he has just walked into the building. “How are you?” “I’m good thanks,” Aston talks to me as he walks into a private dance studio and walks over to the CD player and puts a CD in. “What are you doing?” “Gonna practice a dance,” “oh... Can I watch?” “Err... If you want to,” he seems a little uneasy with the thought, “I won’t say anything, I just wanna see how you dance,” I smile to ease him, but that seems to make him feel even more uncomfortable. “You seem really uncomfortable with me here,” “do I... Oh,” “what calms you?” “A kiss does, but I don’t wanna kiss,” he says to back away from me. “I can kiss you if you like,” “that wouldn’t be necessary,” “why?” “Because you’re a friend,” “so is (Your name) to you, put you’ve kissed,” “I use to date her many years ago, so kissing her now isn’t awkward,” he says just as Mrs-oh-I-can-have-Aston-all-to-myself walks in.

Aston’s POV:

“Hey baby,” (Your name) walks in and up to me, places a kiss onto my lips and then begins to settle her things down on the desk that Dominique was sitting on. “Ast, why did you just do that?” Dominique asks, as I raise my eyebrow at her, “what’d you mean?” “Why did you just allow her to kiss you, when I could have done it,” “ha! You kiss Aston, you won’t be living my friend,” (Your name) scoffs, but then Dominique bites her lip as her eyes travel down just below my belt, making my eyes grow wide. “I just made love to Aston,” Dominique blurts out, but (Your name) scoffs, “I can tell by the look on Aston’s face, that you just told an obvious lie,” she says, as Dominique giggles “I meant last night,” “oh that’s funny, because I was round Aston’s last night... Playing tag and having a pillow fight,” (Your name) smirks, but Dominique looks a little stumped. “Aston didn’t we make-” “I was with (Your name) last night... We know where my dick has been,” “and baby, it won’t be in you,” (Your name) adds, as Dominique suddenly jumps off the table, grabs the back of my head and our lips meet in a hard kiss.

Instantly I push her away...

Leon’s POV:

“DOMINIQUE,” I scream as I just happened to see what happens in the dance studio Aston and (Your name) were meant to be practising in. “You okay?” I ask Aston, as he nods and rubs his lips clean, “DOMINIQUE, IN MY OFFICE RIGHT NOW,” I scream as she hurries to her feet and walks quickly to the door of the studio...

(Your name)’s POV:

“I’m so sorry,” Aston whimpers as he approaches you, “its fine... It’s not your fault,” you smile, hiding the pain you have just gone through to see someone kissing YOUR man. “I feel so bad though,” “why?” “Because-” “Like I said... it’s not your fault, so please... Don’t blame yourself for anything, and let’s get practising,” you giggle, but deep down inside your heart thumps with anger, as the image of Dominique kissing Aston is repeated in your head, with you having no control over it.

Three hours of practising a couple of dance routines with Aston, testing out dances your bodies could do; you found it hard to concentrate... The kiss of Dominique’s was still being repeated in your head, so most of the time, things wasn’t going according to plan, even though Leon was watching.

“Have a break and come back in an hour,” Leon dismisses you and Aston, but without grabbing your bag; you just walk fast to the studio’s door. Instantly running down a long corridor, which had a turning to the left with it being a dead end... Then the tears came.

Oritsé’s POV:

“Whoa Ast, what’s happened?” I ask him, as he looks a little bewildered “what’d you mean?” “(Your name)’s just run off crying,” “what?! Where did she go?” “I don’t know, just saw her run off,” I lied. I knew exactly where she went. “Oh shit! Let me go find her,” he says, going the opposite way (Your name) went. Subtly, I went the way she went...

“What’s wrong?” I ask (Your name) when I found her curled up in the corner of the corridor, weeping to herself. “Nothing... I just miss Ivy,” she weeps more, as I realized that since coming back home, she hasn’t seen Ivy. Ivy is still pinging from one home to the other. Even though, she said that, it felt like she was hiding something. “Come on, I know there is something else then just that... It’s me, Oritsé... You can tell me anything,” I smile as she looks at me and smiles sweetly as I then sit down next to her and comfort her in a one arm hug. “It’s just... That Dominique girl, she kissed Aston in front of me, and I know that I’ve had sex with him and whatever; I pretended it didn’t do me any harm. I don’t know why, but I got really angry and wanted to kill her... It’s hurt me more then I think it should have done,” she admits to me, but at her last sentence she places her head onto my shoulder. “Of course it will!” I say to her, as she looks up at me the confused look on her face making her look adorable, “what’d you mean?” “You’ve gotten angry and upset over something, what you think is ‘small’ because you LOVE Aston... You love him so much, that even Aston flirting with another girl...” I hint as she smiles. She knows what I’m on about. “Makes you upset, even when you think it shouldn’t. You just want a good future with Aston, and you don’t want to lose him,” “Yeah... I don’t want to lose him... He means so much to me,” “and you won’t lose him,” another voice speaks up, as we both look up to see Aston standing there, smiling down at (Your name) as she blushes.

“How long have you been standing there for?” “From the beginning of your speech,” he winks, “you have skill,” I chuckle as does Aston, but he steps and crotches down in front of (Your name). “You won’t lose me, baby... You never will. I’ll be with you till the day I die, because I love you just as much,” he says quietly, but confidently to her as takes hold of her hands and kisses her knuckles, which makes her blush. “Plus, I knew the whole Dominique thing would hurt you, even though you said it wouldn’t... She’s been fired,” he tells me and (Your name) the good news, as we both look at each other and grin, “best news I’ve heard all week,” I grin, before getting up. “I’ll leave you two,” I say, but when I look down to smile at them... Aston is giving her a comforting kiss. They should be together, with the cute couple image they give.
