Remember Me | D'Angelo Russell

°16°

I get up from the floor and I look at Chris.

"I love you, Chris!" I say my voice shakey.

It's worth a shot.

"Don't tell me, show me!" Chris says.

He takes a step closer to me and I take a deep breathe.

"H-how do I show you?"

Chris walks to me and he grabs my waist.

I bite my lip and a tear slips down my cheek.

"Give me what I've always wanted!"

He's always wanted sex...

"I-" I start.

Chris suddenly falls down on to the floor.

I look up to see a police women.

I break into tears and the cop looks at me.

"Are you okay ma'am?" She asked.

I can't speak, I just nod my head yes.

She puts Chris in handcuffs and she looks at me.

I take a deep breathe before explaining what happened to the cop.

D'Angelo arrives a few minutes later and he immediately pulls me into a hug rubbing my head.

"Are you okay?" D'Angelo asked.

"I'm okay now," I hug D'Angelo back.

The cops take Chris away and he looks at me on the way out.

That isn't the Chris I remembered, he was not crazy!

D'Angelo pulls me closer to him once he notices Chris staring at me and I smile up at him.

"I'm so happy your okay!" D'Angelo says letting out a sigh.

I wake up a few days later and I get ready for work.

While I'm getting ready, Imani and I catch up on things.

I tell her about Chris and she is in shock.

"So, Jordan apologized?" I asked her while putting on my mascara.

"Yeah, he said he was talking crazy. He had a lot going on and we talked about it. How about you and D?"

"Nothing is going on with us!" I smile at my sister.

"Mhm, so you don't fancy the cutie with the booty and big lips!"

His lips are fine- no, shut up!

"I guess he's okay I-"

"Just okay, huh?" D'Angelo says.

I turn to see him standing in the bathroom doorway.

"Yeah, just okay!" I walk past him and he chuckles following me.

D'Angelo insisted on dropping me off to work.

He also said he would be in the area if I needed anything.

As I am getting out of his car, I look at him.

"Thank you, for everything!"

"No problem, beautiful!"

I walk around to the drivers side and D'Angelo rolls down his window.

"What's up?" D'Angelo asked.

Pleasure: A feeling of happy satisfaction and enjoyment.

I lean down and I kiss his cheek.

°Rule #2 Do not combine work with pleasure°

He smiles at me and I smile at him.

D'Angelo puts a strand of hair behind my ear and he cups my cheek pulling my face closer to his.

"Trinity, get to work!" I hear my coworker say.

It startled me and I hit my head on the roof of the car.

D'Angelo and I start to laugh together.

I clear my throat walking into my job.

"We need you to train a new employee today." My boss says.

I nod my head.

"Her name is Renae," I walk to the employee room after my boss and I see Renae there.

I let out a small laugh.

"Are you following me now?" I asked giving Renae a hug.

She laughs. "Nope, I promise I'm not!"

"Oh you guys know each other, great!" My boss walks away.

I teach Renae how to do everything and we both get to work.

This is good, I have a familiar face at work to help keep me calm, I think to myself.
