"What the fuck O'!" I whisper yelled in astonishment as I looked at him in confusion. His eyebrows furrowed and he noticed my expression.
"I broke up with Talya! I told her that I'm in love with you." He said try to reassure me. I stood in the door way with my moth wide open and my mind trying to process the information. "I want to be with you Thanie..." he said reassuringly.
"I..." I begun to say but Odell casually walked in my apartment and lifted me up in the process. "Odell, what are you doing?" I asked as he lead us to my couch and he sat me down before sitting next to me and looking me in the eyes.
Is this a joke? Is this some sick way of getting me to make love to him?! Why would he joke like this?
I was pulled out of my deep thinking as Odell's voice boomed through the room. "I can't stand to pretend any longer baby. I've loved you since we were kids and all through college, we just couldn't be together because I didn't want to lose you. I fucked up with you and all the girls along the way but you never deserved that. I'm sorry for putting you so low as being a side chick or rebound, I never meant to treat you that way." He said with sincerity in his voice.
I sat there looking him in the eyes and tears threatening to escape. My tongue was caught in my throat and I couldn't say anything for a few seconds. He tried to read my expression and reached for my hands before I snatched them away from him.
"Do you think I'm stupid?!"I shouted at him, startling him and rendering him confused. " You knew what you were doing to me Odell, you knew!" I said softly as the tears finally rolled down my cheeks.
"N-no Thanie, I didn't!" He said trying to reassure me. "I didn't know that I was hurting you, I just thought it was our thing." He said in shame. "I guess I took you for granted baby, I'm sorry..." He said with his head bowed down.
I sniffed as snot threaten to escape and thought about what he said. "What was 'our thing'?" I asked while trying to control my breathing.
"It was carefree, we just enjoyed each others body's and spirits... you always lifted me up when I was down and never judged me. You never forced anything on us." He explained. He made sense, we really were like that. We never cared about other people except each other, even when we were both in relationships. We had an unspoken bond. I eventually nodded.
"W-What made you change all that tonight?" I asked curiously.
He reached for my hands again seeing as I'm calm, I let him hold them and his eyes bore into mine once more. His stare was intense, it was different this time. Chills spread from my spine through to my feet and my heart was beating fast as ever. "I've always wanted to cuff you Mamas, I tried to convince myself that we needed the right time but these past few days of trying to convince you of your love for me, made me realize that I should be accepting that my love for you shouldn't be determined by time." He said and then squeezed my hands in his. "I want to give us a go baby. For real this time. Not that bullshit we did in varsity for 2 weeks but full on US." He said softly and leaned into my face to read my expression.
"Okay O'..." I finally whispered, the biggest smile spread across his face and he leaned in to catch my lips with his. He effortlessly lifted me up and sat me on his lap so I was straddling him.
He repeatedly kissed my face while saying "Thank you, thank you, thank you! I promise it will be different this time Thay!" And he kissed my lips again, making a huge smile appear on my face. My heart have so much room for this man it's unbelievable. Are we really doing this? Are we really going to be an couple? I thought to myself as he begun to kiss my neck and making me moan.
I was just about to let him pull my top off when I stopped him suddenly not wanting sex to get in the way of this moment.
"Baby, let's just talk tonight okay?" I asked softly while holding his face with both hands. He looked down at my cleavage for a few seconds before looking me in the eyes and painfully nodding in response. I got off his lap and made my way to my mini wine cellar. "Red or white?" I asked him.
