Clay's P.O.V
Things have been going well with Nyla. She is a remarkable woman and turned out to be an exceptional friend.
I've never allow any one to be this close to me since Xavier died. There was nothing but pain and anger inside of me, there were no room for any one.
Now? now its different. Nyla made it different. I'm not sure if I like that though.
Buzz... Buzz...
Text message from Sweet Nyla.
She is sweet. Do not think to much into it. cough.
Sweet Nyla: Just made it home.
Me: Good.
Sweet Nyla: Clay?
Me: Yah?
Sweet Nyla: Your a stud right?
Me: I do not do labels. I am Clay that's all.
Sweet Nyla: Have you ever been with a woman?
My heart flips in my chest.
why would she ask me that? I can't say I do not find females
attractive because I do, very much so.
Me: No. Why are you asking.
Sweet Nyla: Curious that's all.
Sweet Nyla: But would you?
Me: To me gender do not matter, so there is no reason for me not to.
Sweet Nyla: Smiles. alright.
Me: Base on ur questions I am curious also. Are u into girls Nyla?
It's funny that I have been around Nyla for so long and we've never spoken about our sexuality.
We never did speak about that kiss either. I assume it was just the
emotional situation that caused it to happen.
Nyla is taking a while to respond and my eyes are glued to the phone. every second seem longer than the last.
Two minutes later..
Sweet Nyla: Yes, I've always been attracted to females. Had never been attracted to men before.
Me: So, that means ur still pure?
Sweet Nyla: lol. Yes, technically. I've never allowed toys to be used on me.
I can just imagine how hard she is blushing right now and I have to admit that this conversation
making me feel some type of a way.
Me: You had a female lover then?
Sweet Nyla: I had two actually. Two very short relationships. They both cheated on me. I guess am not very good at it.
Me: Nah, don't say that. Cheating is the selfishness of cheaters, that is the way I see it.
Sweet Nyla: Smiles. So, what are you doing right now?
Me: laying across my bed texting u in the dark.
Sweet Nyla: smiles, why are u in the dark?
Me: Just took a shower and lay here after, I did not bother to turn on the light to get dressed.
Typing....
Nyla began typing and stopped.
Typing....
she started again and stopped.
Typing....
Sweet Nyla: I have to go write up my report. I'll talk to u later ok?
Me: Alright have a good night.
End of conversation.
The light from the phone dies out and the darkness engulf the room.
Nyla's conversation had me thinking and honestly it terrifies me to even
consider another lover, male or female. Just the thought of anyone taking his place kills me.
Yes. He was selfish and he broke my heart so many times I still can't seem to recover but he also
healed me in ways no one else could. He was not the best husband but he was mine.
I lay in the darkness for a while, still on my back with both my hands behind my head. The green towel wrap around my waist leaving my breast bare to the wind.
My eyes adjust so well to the dark that I can see every piece of furniture in the room.
I can not sleep, my brain would not let me. Should I even entertain the idea of Nyla's touch?
The taste of her lips?
"Urgh.. stop it!" groaning at the thoughts that begins to stirs something deep inside.
Buzz... Buzz...
My phone vibrates on my chest from where I've left it after texting Nyla. The light
blinds me momentarily as I pick up the phone. My eyes squints to brave the harshness of the light.
My eyes slowly adjusts to reveal another text message from Nyla.
Sweet Nyla: Clay are you awake.
Me: No I am fast asleep.
Sweet Nyla: Lol your such an ass.
Me: smiles, One in the same. What's up?
Sweet Nyla: Nothing, I just can't sleep.
Me: Seems like we have the same problem.
Sweet nyla: I should have stayed with you to night. The reports did not take that long.
Me: well its 1am right now but I can come to you if u like and spend the rest of the time with u.
Sweet Nyla: what about Kyle?
Me: Kimoya picked him up just after u left. He needed help with his math and u know I am no good at that.
Sweet Nyla: Lol. yea I know.
Me: I will be there in 20 ok?
Sweet Nyla: Great.
End of conversation
Getting up from the bed, I pull the towel from around me and turn the light on. Pulling on some random clothing as I throw some stuff I'll need in an over night bag.
Grabbing my car keys as I stroll out the door making sure to lock up before I leave.
Ha! Nyla finally got up the nerve to ask the really important questions.😏
Will Clay get the hint or stay in the dark completely oblivious to Nyla's true feeling towards her?😕
