Our Untold Stories

Because I Care

"You always pull that shit Dee!" I said as I sat up with a massive headache, trying to ignore my hangover. "You try to stop me from doing the right thing, and then you BARK on me when I don't stand up for us... I don't get what the fuck you want me to do! AND... You invited LEO?! When was the last time you heard me bring him up? You KNOOOOOOOW me and him don't speak. And HOW did Tonya find out about the party Dee? You brought all these problems in one big room, I swear you did!!!"

"First of all..." She sat on the edge of the bed with her back facing to me and flipped her hair over her shoulder while sighing. "Stop yelling at me. You KNOW how I feel about that Zara. So stop doing it. Secondly, I didn't want you to get arrested you dick! I was saving you from legal trouble, you're the face of your company and do you know how bad it'd look if you got poor attention like that? I was saving YOUR ass from YOURSELF! And lastly... I was trying to help a situation that I saw wouldn't get fixed unless it was brought to attention. You are too fucking full of pride to do it yourself, go to either one of them and fix amends. And YES I said FIX AMENDS, even with Tonya, because I know she was important to your life and I don't want to be fucking responsible for destroying that relationship too!" I could hear a quiver in her voice. "I.. I was just trying to help everything, but I'll stop that Zara-Elise. Because I can't do anything correct, right?" She turned to me as she wiped a tear from her face, hating to show emotion around me.

"I.. Baby can you come up here please?" I sat up against the head board and all of the words she just spoke had sunk in and suddenly I felt like the worst person in the world. "What did you just say? Can't do anything correct? I swear when I see you all I get is perfection so I don't see what you mean baby... You were just trying to help... Thank you." I had forgotten how sensitive she was due to her pregnancy, and I felt so wrong for coming at her any type of crazy. "Thank you babe... I'm an ass." I kissed her head. "I'm so sorry."

She stood up and walked toward the doorway. "Don't. Don't even touch me. I'm alright, fuck it." I was taken aback by how she responded to my apology, and it actually kind of hurt me, because I hated feeling like someone didn't care.

I looked at her, and rolled my eyes. "Wow... Word? Matter fact? Let me get ready for work..."

She spun around. "Work? I thought you weren't going in today."

"What made you think that Dee?" I said as I was walking to the closet to get my towel from off the top shelf. "What made you think I was staying home today?"

"Well for starters... You w-"

I cut her off quick. "I wasn't asking for an answer, rhetorical question dearest." I chuckled, and slid past her. "I am going to work today, I don't know what your plans are for the day? But Dee, you better figure it out, I heard being in the house all day gets super boring buddy..." I knew I was being petty, but she managed to hurt MY feelings and piss ME off, so I felt like I had every right to act how I was.

"UGH!... I cannot deal with YOU, and your STUPID ass attitude! YOU always feel like someone is fucking attacking you or something, even if YOU'RE in the wrong. Go get fucking ready if that's what you gon do. GO! I'll figure out what I'm doing for MYSELF ALLLLL FUCKING DAY, while you work in the office designing and shit until 2 in the fucking morning, LEAVE your pregnant wife in the house BY HERSELF all fucking day Zara! You're having a little emotional bitch fit and you'll find a way to stay in that office OVERNIGHT if you have to to get away from me, keep me here lonely, and you'll even ignore all my fucking calls, because YOU are hurt. What.. About.. ME bitch? Grow the fuck up, real shit! Because I can't handle all this stress from shit I didn't even do. I don't even have the right to be mad anymore!..." She mumbled something under her breath, and hearing that pissed me off. I hated when people spoke under their breath.

"SPEAK UP. Fuck did you say?" I walked up to her and grabbed her arm, letting all the anger out on that one spot I had a grip on. "Speak the fuck up Dee."

"I SAID... Just watch... Wait for it."

I saw the anger flowing through her face, and could almost feel it through her skin. "You're so fucking sexy when you're mad." She looked at me and rolled her eyes.

"I don't have time for the bullshit Zara-Elise. Do you have anything else to say before you go get ready?" She looked down at the arm I was holding. "Do you have anything to say about this GRIP bitch? Are you DONE?"

"Almost..." I pulled her closer to me, and spoke, my lips brushing hers with every word. "As I was saying... You're so fucking sexy when you're mad..." In a swift movement, I had her in my arms bridal style, and was carrying her to the bed.

"Za... Put me DOWN. I don't wanna look at you, speak to you, see you. NOTHING. Leave me ALONEEEE." She began to kick her feet, while pushing away from me, even though she knew she couldn't get out of my grip.

"Deena. Calm down. CALM... CALM THE FUCK DOWN." I yelled as she hit me repeatedly. "Stop fucking hitting me... Sit your pregnant ass on this fucking bed and wait. Okay?!" She pouted and rolled her eyes, trying to remain mad, but she was breaking. "OKAY?"

"Yes. Okay. Fine. Go."

"Good! Stay right here please?..."

"GO! Before I get the fuck up!" With that, I ran to the bathroom.

Me and her were gonna take a bath together... And then I'd proceed to carry her back to the bed, and lay her down and dry her off. I'd get her dressed and take her into the office with me, and she'd help me make a bunch of designs for fall and winter bookbags. I planned to make her forget about why we were mad, and that's exactly what I did.

"Baby..." She came and said to me by the end of the day. "You're so annoying." I smiled, knowing exactly why she had called me annoying. "You always make it hard to be mad at you, what the hell man..."

"Dee baby, why would you ever be upset at me? Now, more importantly, are we going to take a bath together tonight, or are you gonna go in by yourself?" I smirked a bit and kissed her hand.

She tried to make a mad face, but her smile busted out. "Run the damn bath, put lots a bubbles, and take your ass in the bath, call me when it's ready for us..."

"That's what I freaking thought, ugly butt!" I said as walked toward the bathroom.

Even though I squashed the argument from this morning... I was still upset about the whole inviting Leo and Tonya thing... But I couldn't let her be so upset about the situation.
