The Sweet Encounter (Completed)

Chapter Twenty-Six: Love It Too

Brie's eyes gleamed of excitement as she saw Trey coming over, but then her lips curved downward and he noticed she was frowning now. She then turned to face Tad.

"See, he's mad. I could never be mad at him. Mad cause I said 'Allison'." She kept on repeating Allison's name while bobbling her head. She was making a fool of herself and Trey wanted to, first of all, force Tad to let go of his wife, but to also take her home and spank her ass.

She got off her stool, but slipped and wrapped her arms around Tad. Trey's blood was boiling faster with each step. He felt he wasn't getting to her fast enough. Once he was by her side, he held onto her arm.

"Ouch! Why so rough?"

"Brie, you're drunk, and I am not hurting you."

Trey stared at Tad up and down and noticed Tad still had his arm around her waist. He gave Tad a harsh look which Tad understood and tried to release Brie, but Brie was holding on tight around Tad's neck.

"You're right, Trey. Tad is better for me. He's a good man, a real good man. You know, he doesn't have Allison in his life."

He couldn't believe her obsession with Allison, and now she was comparing him to Tad.

"Brie, you're coming home with me."

"I think I will come home on my own time."

"No, you're not." His voice was firm and he meant what he said.

"Trey. Michael. Bryson. Young man, you listen to me. I've stuck with you for better and worst, but you." She pointed her finger at the very tip of his nose. "You've done nothing but push me away, protect that Allison, and now you're so demanding."

"Brie. I'm going to pick you up and throw you over my shoulder. You can fight all you want, but I sure as hell will not stand here while you make pointless arguments."

"Argument? There's no argument here! Your Allison has been nothing but a slut, and yet you defend her, but you won't do the honor of defending your wife!"

His temper couldn't be controlled anymore. He didn't care if the entire bar heard his words anymore.

"Dammit, Brie! You drive me mad, woman! My heart has fallen in love with you again, and tonight after hearing that I could have lost you, it about killed me! So don't talk to me about honor and not defending you!"

She looked at him with her big almond eyes and released herself from Tad. She jumped onto Trey and he almost didn't catch her in time. Her legs were wrapped around his waist and she gave him an everlasting kiss. The crowd in the bar was cheering at their display of affection. Her heart was fluttering and she couldn't believe his testimony. He loved her. It had taken him months to admit it, and she had yearned for him to say it.

He didn't know what to make of her. She was feisty yet a delicate being, but he couldn't deny it any longer. He knew he had loved her before, maybe even possibly when he first saw her walk into his hospital room when Allison was there. However, tonight he wanted her to hear it.

"Now, can I take my wife home?"

She bit her bottom lip and smiled. He carried her out of the bar while she still held onto him. Tad watched as the admirable couple left the bar. He had to admit to himself he wanted that same affection, but his mind had him thinking. He made a quick phone call.

"Hello." The woman answered on the other line.

"I don't know what is going on, but you need to make sure my name is not attached anywhere to you."
