"See no! This what you can't do Dee, this your third time canceling on me! Is there something you need to fucking tell me?" I folded my arms waiting for him to come up with another sorry ass excuse.
"Baby I already told you today is my daughter's soccer game. I missed the last one for you just give me this one! I can always come over your house tonight." He tried to grab me but I backed away. "Don't you dare put it like I want you to choose between me and your child! You didn't tell me about the soccer game until after that's why I was feeling shitty that night."
I was a lot of things but I wasn't no bitch that needed to take the attention away from the kids to feel love. I definitely wasn't no home wrecker either, I never believed in that term. If I can open the doors to your home it wasn't one in the first place because somebody forgot to lock up.
"Okay. Okay. I'm sorry about that." He pulled me close hugging me making me smile. "And yes you can come over tonight, bring food." He smiled nodding his head. He peaked out the door of the janitor's closet making sure it was clear for us to leave. "Alright, tonight." He pecked my lips leaving. I leaned my head back on the shelf looking up at the long string that was dangling over my head for the light.
Dee had been my man for five years now, it sounds funny to say because he'd been messing around with his baby mama. Now don't get me wrong, while he was playing house I was out here playing too. I wasn't going to go out like that and cry while this nigga thought he was living his best life with his baby mama.
I straightened up my jacket before walking out the closet.
Outside of the work I did for Trey I was heavy into photography and worked for a company. This is a job just to keep me busy but the company was great and bringing me a lot of money so I stayed. An old white guy named Mr. Tom ran it and he had sexual harassment cases built up to the ceiling and still walked around untouched. That's white America for your ass.
Other than getting tea from everyone in this office I was a regular worker. I do what I have to do to collect a check and keep my head low enough while doing it.
Dee didn't work here, thank God. He'd just bring me lunch or check in on me and make sure I ate. Every since that night she caught us in bed I could see this look of relief on his face and it made me hopeful. He didn't want it to be known because of the children and I understood that much. I wasn't going to force him to tell his kids, at least not until we've been at it for a little longer.
I went inside my office shutting the door behind me. I still had photos to print off and mail off before next week. I turned my chair looking at the beautiful Atlanta view smiling. I was at the top of the food chain and that's what I've always missed. I was more than just some gay nigga walking around here with flashy shit from instagram, I worked for mine.
I came out the closet when I was fourteen and surprisingly my parents were supportive. So damn supportive my father decided to come out the closet himself and tell my mother he was gay too. It tore her to pieces like it would any woman, she kicked him out and left me to pick up the peices of her heart.
I felt with the usual school bullying but I stood up for my damn self. Wasn't nobody gonna push me around. The guys who felt so bothered by me ended up in my guts by senior year, ain't that's some shit? But there was this one guy though; Eli Blakes. Yes sis, that Eli Blakes. He was so nice to me that I thought he was gay but turns out he's a nice straight guy. I use to stalk his Myspace and read every update and look at every picture. When Facebook became the thing, whew chilee that was like Christmas for me looking at his perfect body. That's when he started getting heavy in fitness.
I secretly always felt like we were meant to be together because we've always landed in the same place. First high school, Atlanta, I'm working for Trey and he's one of Trey's best friends. At first it was too much but I knew landing a position with someone like Trey Songz was a one in the life time chance so I stuck it out.

"Thaaank you!" I leaned my head back on my sofa as I got my foot massage. He chuckled keeping his eyes on the movie.
"So how was Journi's soccer game?" "It was good, she scored four times. More than them other kids out there." I smiled nodding my head. "What about Jr? Is he doing good in reading?" He tilted his head to the side looking a little unsure. "I'm not sure, I keep telling Jasmine to put him in a special class for reading but she don't want him there." I scoffed rolling my eyes.
"Baby ain't nothing wrong with extra help, I use to get it in math. That's parents problems, always worried about how it'll look to the other kids and not about your child passing." He nodded his head agreeing. "Yeah man that's what I was tryna explain to her. Then his ass a class clown on top of that and she don't even check that shit." I shook my head sliding my foot out of his hand to cuddle up next to him.
"Well you do have a voice Dee, put him in there yourself and I'm sure the teachers notice so they wouldn't mind." He nodded wrapping his arms around me.
My doorbell rung making us both turn around. "That must be our pizza." He got up grabbing his wallet.
I hated that he was going through that with Jr., Jasmine was so stuck on image that she didn't see that this child needs help. Sometimes I know more about her kids than her. I felt like she was trying to reject everything he had to say because she found out dude is gay but at some point that shouldn't matter.
"Buffalo chicken pizza and a chocolate volcano." I smiled clapping my hands as he laid it out on the table. "Fat ass." He laughed making me do the same. "Well we both know this." I tooted my ass up making him laugh. "Save all that for later, I'm tryna dig in. I'm hungry as hell." I agreed grabbing a slice of pizza for myself.
I glanced over at him smiling to myself, it felt like I was getting finally getting my ghetto fairytale.
