Furthest Thing

Harmony

I woke up the next morning in my bed. I was such a mess last night. I remember grabbing my favorite wine glass and downing half of bottle of Malbec. Now, I'm not a alcoholic but I was just overthinking our situation and kept crying and pouring another glass.

I yawned and sat up, when I noticed he was laying next to me, sleeping peacefully. I leaned over and kissed his cheek and started kissing his neck. He groaned and rolled over.

"Dang, you ain't even brush your teeth yet?" He laughed, rubbing his eyes.

I sat on his lap. "Baby, I'm so sorry about last night."

He yawned. "It's forgotten."

"No it's not. Babe, let me make it up to you."

"Nah girl, you good. The problem at hand now is that half drank bottle of wine downstairs." He raised a eyebrow at me.

I pulled my hair from the front if my face. "Bad night?" I chuckled.

"Yeah, to put it simply." He grabbed my hips and pushed me back on my side of the bed. He got up and headed to the bathroom.

"At least I didn't drink the whole bottle." I said, making up my bed.

I heard the water running and stop. He came out the bathroom shirtless with his toothbrush hanging on the side of his mouth.

"That makes it so much better." He said before heading back into the bathroom.

"It does." I went to my vanity to pull my hair into a bun.

A minute or two passed before he spoke again. "Wayne having this thing at the King Of Diamonds tonight so I won't be home until late."

I immediately turned around in my seat. "Excuse me, the King of Diamonds? The strip club?"

I heard the shower turn on. "Yep." He replied.

"Why is he dragging you to a strip club?"

The door closed and I didn't get a reply.

I scoffed and got up to go to the bathroom. When I entered, the shower door was steamed already so I couldn't see him. After i brushed my teeth and washed my face, I sat on the counter.

"Aubrey, I know you heard me ask you a question." I stated.

All I heard was him laugh. I removed my clothes and joined him in the shower.

"Wow, the freak in you has been coming out lately." He smiled, grabbing my waist.

I pushed his hands away. "Aubrey, don't ignore my question. Why are y'all going to a strip club?"

He sighed. "Wayne is going through some thing with his girl so he just wants a night with the guys."

I rolled my eyes.

"Are you jealous?" He smirked.

I crossed my arms. "Not at all."

He pulled me closer to him. "It's okay girl, you can be jealous." He started sucking on my neck again. I already knew he was finna start some he couldn't finish.

After our lovely morning adventure, he made us breakfast, pancakes, bacon and eggs. Now we were laying in my bed as I did some work and he began working on a new song. I was laid across his legs working on my laptop when I looked at him, so focused on his craft. I stared at him for a good minute, just taking it all in when he noticed and started laughing.
