Evil Intent/Awkward Moments

Chandler

I looked down on the floor and there was Shonda laid out unconscious. I bent down to see if I could feel a pulse and she had one, but it was very faint. I noticed she had bruises on her body and there was blood coming from in-between her thighs.

I dialed 911 and hysterically ranted off what was wrong and the address. She wasn't my favorite person right now, but I didn't wanna see her dead. My question is who in the fuck would do this and why? I grabbed the spread off the bed and covered her body.

"Shonda what the hell have you got yourself into?" I said aloud.

Truth be told she was playing too many games with people's lives and now karma came to kick her in the ass. I hope she does pull through. Within seconds the paramedics arrived and they came in working on her. Not long after the police and array of detectives showed up. I could tell that they thought I had something to do with this shit, but I didn't.

I have had some altercations in the past that nobody knows about. That's one of the reasons I relocated to Atlanta is to leave that behind, but I get the feeling that my dark side is soon to rear its ugly head. There is only one person that is to blame for that and that's Desire. I was so zoned out that I didn't realize they were wheeling Shonda out.

"Excuse me. I'm Det. Jones and this is Det. Harris. Do you mind if we ask you a few questions?"

"No." Was my simple reply.

"How do you know the victim Mr.-"

"Wright, but call me Chandler."

"Oh you are the Chandler Wright of Wright Industries?" Det. Jones asked."

"Yes the one and only."

"Now how is that you know the victim?"

"She is a friend of mines. I came to check on her because I hadn't talked to her in a week. When I got here the door was slightly opened, that's when my curiosity got the better of me. I walked in and found her laid out not breathing."

"Hmm, so you have no idea who would wanna do this to her?" Det. Harris asked.

"No I don't. If I did I would be giving you more answers than I am now. Look I really hate to cut this short, but I have somewhere I need to be."

"Alright Mr. Wright. Stay close because we will be in touch if we have any more questions." Det. Jones said.

I nodded and headed out. I got to my car, gettin inside. I slammed the door with such force my glass should have shattered. I was beyond pissed because now I'm stuck to this bullshit that I had nothing to do with. There is a crazy ass person on the loose that is responsible. I just pray to God that my nightmare of a past don't get in closer to my ass, because if it does I am sure to go down.

********

I stood in the shadows and watched as this bitch ass nigga left the scene. I already knew that they were gonna suspect him because he walked in and found her. That makes it easier for me. I'm just gonna chill out and stay behind the scenes for a while. I hated I had to do what I did to Shonda, but I sure as hell don't regret it.

She got so much shit wit her ass and it is causing drama everywhere you turn. I bet now the bitch won't try no dumb shit after what I did to her. If she does next time I will kill her ass. That is definitely a promise and not a threat.

Desire

I rolled over in bed and my whole damn body hurt. I felt like the tin-man from the wizard oz. My legs were locked up and they needed oiled. I groaned and stretched as best I could. I opened my eyes to see a sleeping August. He was so damn sexy, even in his sleep.

His lips were sheer perfection, hell everything on him was sheer perfection. I knew that what we were doing was a dangerous game because sex can be a powerful thing. One thing I know is that we could never be more than what we are now. If I was looking for my Mr. Right I would want it to be someone like him, if not him.

I actually like the way things are between us because he not up on me and I am not up on him. We give each other breathing room except for when we wanna get it in. I'm gonna hate to see this end, but I know this can't last forever. Right now I'm just enjoying the moment just as I know he is. I stared at him a few more minutes and I rolled back over to get some much needed sleep.

********

I felt bright light shining on my face and I squinted my eyes to see the sun shining brightly in my face. I heard the shower running and I knew that August was in there. Seconds later he came out with a white towel wrapped around his waist. I knew I really didn't need to be looking at him like I wanted him again, but hell I couldn't help it.

His hair was damp and curly and he was just so damn delicious.

"Desire what tha' hell I tell ya ass bout lookin' at a nigga like dat'?"

"What the hell you want me to do? You want me to close my eyes?"

"Na' I didn't say all dat', but you know what happens when you start lookin' at me like that. Oh how dat' pussy feel by tha' way?" He smirked at me revealing the dimple in his left cheek.

I shot him the middle finger and he walked towards the bed. I pulled my legs in a tight position so he wouldn't try nothing.

"Girl I don't even kno' why ya tryna do all dat' cause if I want it, I'm gon' get it hands down."

"Oh my goodness! I really can't with you. You are just too raw." I chuckled.

"Yeah, but ya ass like it." That I couldn't deny because he was so right.

He dropped his towel and winked at me as he went to put on his boxers.

"Ugh!" I screamed out.

He looked at me and started laughing, but I didn't see a damn thing funny. I looked at the clock on the nightstand and it was 10:15 am. I really needed to get up and head out. He had slipped on some black b-ball shorts and a black tee and I had to stare. I seem to be doing that a lot, but I couldn't help it.

"Aug-"

I was cut off by the doorbell.

"Desire hol' dat' thought, lemme get tha' door."

I nodded and watched as he walked out the bedroom.

August

I couldn't help but think about tha' shit dat' went on last nite. Things got hella hot, but dat's tha' kinda shit I like. I was curious to find out who was at my house because I wasn't expectin' nobody. I got to the door and swung it open to be attacked by my beautiful nieces.

"Uncle Aug we missed you!" They all said in unison as they hugged me.

I looked at my mama and smiled weakly because I knew I had Desire upstairs. I prayed to God that she didn't come down here because she was gonna be embarrassed if she did.

"I missed y'all too."

"Hey mama."

"Did we come at a bad time?" She asked with a raised brow.

"Uh, well I-"

"August I borrowed some of yo-"

I turned around and watched as her eyes got big as saucers when she saw my mama and nieces. I knew she wanted to run and jump in a hole, but it was too late fa' dat' shit now.

This was a very awkward situation...Fuck!"
