Nightly Behaviors

Chapter 38

Crystal's POV

"I love you."

My heart flutter at the words. "I love you too."

We were having one of our unplugged nights. No tv, no phones, just us two and the love we shared. Aden kissed the curve of my neck and traced his lips to the area behind my ear. He kissed again.

I felt a wave of chill throughout my body before feeling the bed move as he shifted over me.

We shared a moment of stillness together.

"You're the most beautiful girl I've ever seen, have I ever told you that?"

I respond with a smile and bit my lip. "I have a surprise for you." I made my way from beneath the grinning Aden and scurried off into the bathroom.

"What you doing in there girl?"

"I said it was a surprise didn't I?" I yell teasingly.

I bend over to open the bottom drawer beneath my sink and pull out my new red lace bralette and matching pantie. I bought it with intentions of saving it for Valentine's Day, but that was three months away and tonight I just wanted to let myself go. I just wanted to do something spontaneous for once.

I undressed myself of my pajama shorts and T-shirt and into the lingerie. I get the matching red silk robe from my closet beside me and put it on. I let the rich fabric cascade over one of my shoulders and while it slipped off the other.

I looked at myself in the mirror and traced my hands up from my thighs to my tummy. I hated these two features about me but Aden seems to love them. I always felt like my thigh dimples and wide hips made me look unflatteringly big but his love made me feel brave enough to wear my insecurities on my sleeve.

I took a deep breathe before splashing water onto my face and patted my flush cheeks dry with a towel. "Tonight you are letting go." I mumbled to myself while taking a deep breath. I added a red lip and a bit of mascara; taking another step out of my comfort zone but I knew Aden would love it. And I loved him.

When I was ready I opened the door and leaned against the door frame. This was my attempt at sex appeal. Aden who had been resting with his head back, turned to face me.

"Damn." He said sitting up slowly. "Babe, I. . I dont know what to say." He quickly turned away from me. I approached him slowly and placed his hands on my waist.

"I dont want you to say anything." I climbed onto his lap and stared at him a moment before crashing my lips onto his. Our kiss deepened and he squeezed on my waist harder. I moaned, I didn't mind the pain.

Suddenly he pulled away, "Wait. . . I want tonight to be special." He motioned me to moved beside him as he stood up off of the bed. "Its your first time." He started toward my dresser and looked back at me smiling.

"What are you doing," I loll, a grin plastered across my face.

He dug around in his pocket and pulled out his lighter. "Ah ha! perks of being a stoner." He chuckled before lighting my display of candles. When he lit those five candles he moved over to my TV stand and lit the candles sitting there as well. As I watched him my nervousness vanished and turned to excitement. I'd be extremely lucky loosing my virginity to him, my love.

My room was glowing with flickering yellow lights by the time he was done, making our skin glow golden. He started back toward me and pulled me back onto his lap. "Now where were we, " he teased.

I wasn't long before a sharp pain brought me back to reality. This wasn't Aden and this wasn't my first time. I struggled to remove myself from my reality again. I was not here right now. This was not me. This was just like a movie that I was watching. Pretend. Pretend. Pretend. Within twenty minutes the ordeal was over and I was left in the musky room alone, unclothed, again.

"Five." I murmured to myself. I brought myself to repeast the number followed by a loud sob. "I can't do this anymore!" I shouted from the room. That was the fifth time I had to pretend today. God knows why I was keeping track.

It felt like hours before another person entered my room but I had mixed emotions about this visitor. It was the man who'd brought me to this room hours earlier.

"Up." he instructed.

To frightened to move, I remained on my back.

"I said up." He kicked on the corner of the bed sending a loud clink noise through the room and hit me before pulling me up by my hair.

I screamed and wanted to cry but I was to weak and my voice, to raspy from the screaming earlier. The sound came out as a wail instead.

He grabbed my arm and attempted to stick a needle with another dose of heroin into my arm. I admit the heroin made things easier but I didn't want it. Believe it or not being forced to take a drug brought a different kind of high. This high was more like a nightmare or sleep paralysis. My body could feel and imagine what was happening to me but I could only know for sure when my high was being lifted and I was coming back to conciousness.

As the heroin traveled up my bloodstream , the room and exactly why I'd been here became a blur, almost like a distant memory.

Chresanto's POV

"You know what to do." I dap Zay up as I send him on his way.

"You know I do." he responded before driving off.

I stand on the sidewalk and watch as his car headed in the direction of the brothel.

I admit it was was nervous as hell. I couldn't let anything happen to this girl, it would eat at me for the rest of my life. I just wanted her safe.

Thoughts crept in my mind about how the plan could go wrong. I had to stop myself several times from calling Zay and getting an update on what was going on. I knew I couldn't though, that would fuck up everything and I couldn't risk it.

"Fuck!" I cursed and kicked the nearest thing to me. I did not know how to handle what I was feeling.

Finally after what felt like an hour I got a text from Zay.

"Here"

You would think that would calm my nerves but it just made things that more intense for me. I couldn't just sit here and wait like this.

Out the corner of my eye I noticed a familiar neon glow. I couldn't help but feel the tugging temptation pull me closer to it. You know what fuck it.
