Falling From The Floor

Lunch Time 😈

             CHERYL's POINT OF VIEW

I woke up and looked at the time. It was already noon. "I gotta take Cai to school." I said as I jumped out of bed to go wake her up. I walked down the hallway and looked into her room. She wasn't there. I then went back to our room and called Tony. "Did you take Cai to school?" I asked him. "Of course I did." He said. "Why-.....why didn't you wake me up? I was gonna take her." I said. "Listen, it's fine. I got this." Tony said. I just hung up in his face and threw the phone on the bed. It then started ringing. I picked it up. "Didn't I just hang up in your face? That means that I don't wanna talk anymore. You "got this" don't you?" I said. "It's Shemar......uhmmm, are you good?" He asked me. I took a deep breath. "Yeah, I'm fine. Don't mind what just happened." I said as I rubbed my belly. "So, I'm outside. I brought you lunch. Don't worry.....I knew that yah man wasn't home before I came over." He said. "Really, Shemar?" I asked him in an irritant voice. "Yeah, now come and open the door." Shemar said. I hung up and went downstairs. I opened the door and just walked off. "Dang, no hug? No kiss? You didn't miss your best friend, huh?" He asked me as he closed the door with his foot because his hands were full. "You're good." I said. He sat the food down. "What's wrong?" He asked Me as he hugged me from behind. I just shook my head to avoid talking about it. "Did he do something?" He asked me as he started to get into a protective zone. "No. We just....so much is going on right now. That's all." I said as I turned and looked at him. "Well, how about this? You....go upstairs and lay down right quick. Alright? I'll be up." He said. I didn't know why he was telling me to do this but I went along with it. I went upstairs and I laid in bed.

"Alright, baby girl. Sit up. Put your back against the headboard." Shemar said. So, I did. He then jumped in bed and sat crisscrossed in front of me. He then grabbed my feet and started to give me a massage. I don't know how....but he knew that this was exactly what I needed. The comfort of a man. Even though right about now, I wish that my own husband could treat me like this. "Now, talk to me about it all. Just let it out." He said as he continued. "Well.....Tony has been asking me why I haven't been letting him touch me in special ways and stuff." I said. Shemar then looked up at me but he did continue with the massage. "Okay?" He said. "It's because of you, Shemar. You're the reason why I don't want Tony to touch me in anyway." I told him. He stopped and looked at me. He then started back and started smiling. "Why are you smiling?" I asked him. "Because you're as hooked as I am. Too bad that I can't have you though." He said as he peeked at me while he had his head down. "It's a boy." I told him. Shemar was silent for a moment. "I always wanted a baby boy." He said. I looked at him. "Congratulations." He then said. "Shemar..." I said as I leaned down and touched his hands to make him stop. He then stood up. "You have no idea how much I love you. Yet, I keep loosing. Nothing that I do could ever get you to come to me, right? We are just best friends.....best friends who have sex and....have deep feelings for each other. I love you....I do. I'm just stuck in the friend zone." He said. I looked up at him. "Shemar, it's hard for me to do this. Yes, we have deep feelings for each other and yes we've had sex....I know." I said. "Well, why do you keep doing this? Why can't you just say no to me? Save my feelings, Cheryl." He said. "I can't save my feelings because I love you too!" I said in a loud voice. Shemar then took a deep breath. "I was just too late. That's my fault. He won." He then said. "Wha-.." I said but he cut me off. "I'm sorry, Cheryl. I love you too much to see you and him build a family together. You've already done that and now-....a baby boy. A boy. I won't ever get to have a family....or a wife. Nor a child." He said. I looked at him. "But, I guess that's my fault." He then said. He then went downstairs and slammed the door shut. I was left speechless in bed. Wondering what exactly just happened. Yeah, he was too late but....I was wrong through it all. Once you're hooked? It's hard to get unhooked and Shemar and I are deep in it.
