I didn't know Dino was going to spring that announcement up on every one like that I was still in shock because we never fully talked about marriage let along being together he knew my situation with Dave
I sat on the bed waiting on him to come out the shower so we could talk about this
"Hey" Dino smiled I just looked up at him
"We need to talk"
"About"
"The announcement u made on Christmas when was this decided" I questioned
"I just thought it's was a perfect time for me become serious"
"Dino I understand what your saying thing are getting pretty serious with us but"
"But what you think I'm about to play Layla while u doing me like dave you got me fucked up miracle I've did everything a good man could but u want the man that whooped your ass and some more shit yeah I get it fuck me the one who has been here for u sense he has known you"
"Dino it's not like that"
"Then what's it's like" he questioned
"I just don't think I'm ready to get married again"
"Okay" he shrugged
"Okay... is that all you have to say"
"What else is there but imma do one better I'm going to move out I don't need anymore mixed emotions anytime u need help with roayal don't hesitate to call me I just can't sit here and get played I'm to good of a dude for that I know u can't help who you love so I'm not mad I'm sorrr I thought this was going to be more than what it was I was just moral support while dave got his shit together I'm just the best friend I don't know why it took me so long to realize that shit but oh well better late than never" he shrugged grabbing his suitcase this made me feel so bad I wanted to be able to love Dino like I loved dave but I couldn't he was the perfect dude for me but dave has been there sense the beginning so has Dino but idk what I'm saying I couldn't let Dino leave
"Dino please don't leave"
"I have to miracle it's no secret I'm in love with you everyone can see that but it's also no secret that you and dave are madly in love with each other and who am I to stand in the way of that"
"I'm not in love with him I'm just trying not to be with anyone right now"
"Who you trying to convince it's like both of y'all crazy y'all both know y'all love each other but want to play games nobody has time for this y'all are hurting people in the process of y'all being stubborn"
"I'll call dave over here once I leave y'all need to talk as much as I would hate to see y'all together I would hate y'all being miserable and hurting people that didn't ask for this even more" he told me packing his stuff up he was leaving and it felt like he was leaving me forever and deep down I knew exactly that was what he was doing
I watched as he loaded his car sense royal had left with my mom for the holidays I was here by myself
Next day....
I woke up to the doorbell being rung over and over again I got up off the couch wiping the sleep out of my eyes opening it to see dave standing the
"Damn you was sleeping good"
"Dave why are you here" I mumbled
"Dino called me said you want to talk"
"Ohhh" I mumbled going to fix me some coffee
"So y'all engaged" he questioned
"Naw" I told him he just nodded his head
I fixed both of us a cup throwing some henny in there we both look like we could use it
"By far my worst Christmas"
"Me and you both"
"Where is wifey" I smiled
"I woke up and she left me all of her and my daughter shit gone" he huffed
"Damn really why"
"I moaned your name during sex I guess that was her breaking point you can only push someone so far" he shrugged
"Wow" I mumbled
"Yeah"
"You really love me huh" I chuckled
"More than you could ever imagine" he told me looking me dead in my eyes
"Why you wait so long"
"I wanted my family and marriage to work"
"I understand that"
"Look I know I've hurt you more than enough and you and my son need stability I'm not able to give y'all that at the moment not until me and my wife talk"
"What does that mean"
"That if she able or willing to work it out one last time I'll try"
"WHAT!!" I shouted
"That's my wife miracle no matter how much I love you I took a vow to her" he told me
"Dude your confused about what your want I can see that now u telling her one thing but telling me another"
"I know I want to work things out with my wife"
"So what happens next time y'all fucking and u calling out my name what happens then u need to make a choice me or her and if you choose her I don't want to hear shit else about you in love with me" I told him
"Really you gone make me choose"
"Yeah u need to follow your heart not your mind your heart so who is it"
"Man idk"
"If me and her was dying who would you save"
"Her" he mumbled my heart shattered
"Really" my voice cracked
"You have to understand she been there trying playing around with you" he mumbled
"I understand that one hurt me but I'm a champ I can take it" I told me
"Miracle...."
"Don't explain you need to go get your family back and I'm just your baby mother what ever we had is officially over I guess it took for me to hear it out your mouth for me to believe it I was just a side chick I got KNOCKED OFF MY FOCUS FOR YOU QUIT A JOB THAT I LOVE BECAUSE OF YOU I SHOULD HAVE STAYED FOCUS ON MY DREAMS"
"Miracle..".
" don't call my name I took our friendship seriously I took everything seriously your career everything"
"You act like I haven't been chasing you though miracle"
"You been chasing me with a whole woman my nigga wtf you got me messed up"
"But you let me fuck You and get you pregnant with a whole woman u gave me best of best of both worlds"
"You right that was my bad but I thank you for my beautiful son now we can move on with our lives and if your wife doesn't take you back then don't come back with that pretend jealous shit that you still love me that is really dead" I told me he nodded hugging me in the process
