“That will only make it worst…Try to talk through our problems but it takes more than words.”
(Sweets POV)
I knew I had confused him but I had sobered up now and as much as I wanted to fuck his brains out…I knew his heart wasn't with me...Well it felt like it wasn't so I refused to be used as a quick fuck just because his WOMAN wasn't around! No. I deserved more than that especially from him! So I pulled out extra pillows and threw them to him. He caught them as he looked at me like I had went crazy.
“What the hell is these for?” He asked standing up.
“Uh for sleeping…Get over there.” I said pointing to the empty side of the bed.
“Sleepin...You funny but for real quit playin.” He said waving me off then stopped when he saw I was serious.
“I'm not playing Chris…We aren’t doing anything I just needed you to sleep next to me. My…My...I just haven’t been able to sleep…” I said worrying.
“Why not?” He asked walking over to the empty side kicking his shoes off while taking off his jacket and hat.
Truth was my nightmares had come back. I don’t really know what triggered them again but I haven’t been able to sleep or call him so I have just been catching sleep where I could.
“I just haven’t ok…” I said taking off my robe as I noticed his mouth drop.
“Are you kiddin me right now? You gonna wear dat and I’m supposed to sleep!” He said pointing out my sheer white "nightie" as he calls them.
“Uh yeah….It’s called self control. Look I just need my best friend back right now...” I said sighing and plopping on the bed. “Can you just be Breeze for one night?” I pleaded.
I guess that touched his heart because he then climbed into the bed next to me and put his arm around me.
“Yea I can do that. So how long you been havin the nightmares?” He asked looking at me.
Damn he doesn't miss shit...
“About a month. Not sure why tho because I thought they were gone…” I said playing with my fingers.
“Dat shit never really goes away. So is that why you been going so hard lately? I mean you been out there Sweets.” He said leaning his head back on the headboard looking worried .
“Part of it...” I said quietly.
“I know I’m the other part and I’m sorry bout that. Iont want you hurtin yourself because you tryin to forget me cause I couldn’t deal if something ever happened to you. What you doing ain't safe...” He said sitting up again.
"You don’t know how hard it is. I try to distract myself all the time…I mean I opened my dance studio an-"
“What? You did it?” He asked interrupting me all excited.
“Yeah…I didn’t tell you? It’s been opened for a month now.” I said smiling.
“Hell nah you didn’t tell me! Oh My God Sweets you really did it!” He said hugging me.
“Yeah I got 40 kids and Chris they're so gooood!” I said turning to him.
“Word? I gotta go see them!” He said excited. “That would be so dope…We could show em some of our choreo and see what they’ve learned! Aw man you gotta set it up.” He went on. “Wait...What’s it called?” He finally asked.
“Dance 1 Studios.” I said laughing at his excitement.
“Oh shit that’s dope! Congrats for real Baby…I’m so damn proud of you!” He said hugging me again a little longer this time.
