I took the shining, with diamonds covered bracelet out of its box and adored it from up close.

If you looked closely, you'd notice something written on the side of it. 'Because you're my love', it said and I felt a tear rolling down my cheek. Although he couldn't hear me, I whispered a 'thank you'.
Without hesitation, I picked up my phone and called him. He picked up after the tone went off only once.
"Hello? Skylar?"
"Thank you, Zion. Thank you so much, it's beautiful." I could imagine him smirking while fiddling with his hands, which he always did while talking on the phone.
"I'm glad you liked it."
"Liked it? I love it, Zion."
"Can we maybe grab a drink? We just got off the interview and otherwise I can swing by your place."
I was about to agree when I realized the girls were home and I didn't want him to meet them yet.
"Can I meet you in an hour at the local Starbucks?"
"Okay. I'll be there waiting for you."

Quickly I got the girls to Joyce so they could play with Millie - her daughter again and I could go see Zion. Joyce never minded when I brought the girls over. She loved them and treated them as children of her own. Besides, she didn't work so she was always available when I was in a fuck-I-need-a-babysitter-fast mood.

When I walked into the local Starbucks, the first thing I saw was his cap backwards on top of his head. I stood in the entrance for a few seconds before stepping in and walking up to him.
"Hi Zion." I said, as he stood up to embrace me, and this time I didn't pull away.
"Hey Skylar..."
"So-"
"Wait, what do you wanna drink? I'll pay."
"A water is fine."

Finally when my water arrived, I started talking. "Well, I loved the necklace." I said, touching the golden accessoire around my neck.
"I'm glad you did, I was kinda scared you weren't gonna wear it and maybe throw it away or worse.. in my face!"
"I should've." I joked and he smiled, showing off his perfect white teeth. That was the smile I fell in love with.
"I don't know how often I'm gonna say this but I'm genuinely sorry for what happened between your mom and I. She said that if I didn't, she'd make sure I would never see you again. Told me that y'all have moved several times just because a guy didn't want to do her."
"Did she actually?"
"Yeah, no lie. That's what she told me and I love you so when she said that she had done it before - move away from your exes I mean - I panicked and before I knew, it was happening."
I couldn't help but feel sorry for him so I went around the table and pulled him in for a hug. "I'm so sorry for what she did to you."
He sniffed a few times and I felt his tears going through my shirt, touching my bare body.

"I don't wanna beef with you Z, I miss you. Lets just squash the beef."
He smiled and pulled me in for a much tighter hug as he kissed my neck, making me wonder if this was cheating on Liam.
"Before you get any ideas though, I am seeing someone. His name is Liam."
"I aint stressin, I'm mr. Stealyogirl."
"Oh shut up."

When I got home, I spent the rest of the day with the girls and Liam who came by at night. He put the girl to bed at 7:30p.m. and when he came into my room, he came to lay next to me. "I heard that a lot of celebrities wore your pieces at the grammies?" I nodded. "Yeah, it was fun. And I got to catch up with some old friends, so that was dope."
He smiled as he took his tie off and placed it on the nightstand. "Are you staying over tonight?"
"If it's okay with you, yeah."
I nodded my head and he changed into something else because he always had a stack of extra clothes in my closet. In just his briefs and a shirt he got under the pillow with me and shut the lights. He had his arms around me which made me feel save and protected. So I turned around so we were facing each other and stared at the features his face had. And then I pressed my lips against his and our tongues played with each other. Soon our clothes were on the floor next to the bed and we were going crazy under the sheets.

He had an average member, not too big and not too small. It was fine and filled me up just like I wanted him to. That day was also the first time me and Liam did it and I knew that he was a bit nervous. He pounded deeper and faster as I tried not to moan too loud because the girls were asleep and sweat was dripping down our bodies.
