Chapter 19 War between the Balls

KATHERINE

I laid in bed in the guest room staring at the ceiling, I hadn't left the room all day. I just didn't even want to see LaMelo but right now I was listening to him pack and it was breaking my heart with each bang and profanity that left his lips. I rolled over grabbing my phone looking at the time, it was 3:15 in the afternoon. I played on my phone trying to ignore LaMelo just two rooms over but it didn't work. My mind spun with thoughts about him leaving me here while he got to meet the father I never even knew I had. The more I thought about it the more I was tired of staying quiet, if he was going to go to Texas he was going to have to fight me on it. If I couldn't go neither could he. I got up out of the bed tying my curls into a messy french braid going down my back. I grabbed my phone logging into his hotels account seeing he had a room booked for his stay in Austin so I cancelled it getting his money back for it. I walked out of the room and down to my bedroom slinging open the door, Melo turned looking at me. He stood in front of a suitcase on the bed.

"Kitten, I didn't think you were ever going to come out of that room" He smiled at me. I walked over to the suitcase trying to dump it but he was quick to catch it.

"Whoa Kitten if you wanted in our bed, just say so. I need this for my trip" He chuckled about to move it so I could get in bed. I reached in grabbing a handful of his clothes throwing them across the room.

"No, if I can't go neither can you" I said throwing more of his clothes. He grabbed my wrist trying to stop me but I just dumped the suitcase tossing it away.

"KAT STOP" He yelled at me grabbing both of my wrists as I reached for his duffel bag.

"No, you aren't leaving me here in California without you. I refuse to be apart from you like that" I snapped pushing in and pulling my wrists away harshly. I grabbed his duffel bag jumping over our California king size bed unzipping the bag.

"KATHERINE, STOP. I DON'T WANT TO REPACK" He yelled as I dumped out his clothes and shoes. I threw the duffel bag picking up the clothes and shoes throwing them around the room.

"No I'm not going to stop. If you want to go to Texas you're either going to take me or fight me the whole time. Every time you pack I'm going to unpack it, that hotel room you had booked I cancelled and got your money back. The jet I'll cancel while you're driving to the airport. You are not leaving without me" I said crossing my arms. He glared at me but I didn't care, I reached across the bed for his backpack but he snatched it away.

"You are acting crazy Katherine" He snapped at me but I just shrugged.

"This is what you wanted right? This is going to be the only way you respect me is if I demand it like you do. So this is me acting like you" I said with a shrug walking around the bed grabbing the suitcase unzipping the small pocket seeing documents he needed so I grabbed them throwing them in the air looking at him with a "Now what" look.

"You really think this is going to stop me? I'll leave without you even knowing I left" He shrugged carelessly sitting his backpack on the bed. I quickly snatched it unzipping it.

"Dammit Kat, NO" He yelled going to grab the backpack but I spun around fast.

"IF YOU LEAVE ME WITHOUT ME KNOWING IT I'LL BURN THIS HOUSE TO THE GROUND" I yelled at him as he wrapped his arms around me fighting me for the backpack. I held it just out of his reach.

"You do that Kitten, you better hope De Pablo has a good hiding place for you" He growled in my ear. I dumped his backpack tossing it to the side.

"I DON'T WANT DE PABLO TO HIDE ME FROM YOU, I DON'T WANT TO LEAVE YOU EVEN THOUGH I SHOULD WANT TOO" I yelled at him pushing him back by his bare chest my eye catching on the tattoo but I wouldn't allow myself to have lustful thoughts right now.
