Partner In Crime / Zion Kuwonu

26

It's been a week since Zion's finally home. I got a new house, and Melissa got herself a new apartment so she won't have to drive one hour to work.

Life's been good so far. Zion's parents let me take care of him. Felt a release when they told me the accident was nobody's fault. Safe enough to say that me and his family are closer now. They sometimes visit me and Zion and cook something for us which is really sweet.

"Hi bae. What you cookin'?" He wrapped his arms around my waist and kissed me on the cheek smoothly.

"Lasagna." I smiled.

"Got me hungry and shit. Smell good as hell." He rubbed his stomach.

"It's almost ready. What you wanna drink?" I turned around and face him.

"Your juice." He smirked.

"Okay. That shit nasty." I laughed.

I opened the fridge and grabbed orange juice and apple juice.

We sat in the living room together while eating the lasagna.

"You're my favorite chef." He looked at me and I just smiled.

"Edwin is coming over today. Is it okay wit' you?" He asked.

I took a moment to think. I still remember the look in his face when he looked at me in the hospital. Does he not hate me anymore?

"Babe?" He snapped me out of my thoughts.

"Yeah he can come over." I said still not knowing if it's a good idea letting him come over.

"Aight. I'mma let him know." He nodded.

3 hours passed by.

We heard a knock on the front door. And I looked at Zion. "I got it." He stood up and opened the door.

There goes Edwin with Zion's favorite snacks.

"what's up?" they gave each other a dap on the shoulder.

Edwin saw me and I could tell he was forcing a smile.

"Sup?" he nodded at me and I just smiled.

I grabbed two water bottles and threw them at Zion who's now sitting on a couch with Edwin catching up on life.

He caught the water bottles and said "Damn, ma, relax." and I just rolled my eyes and went to the bedroom. It was awkward for me to stay in the same room as Edwin.

-3 hours later-

Zion came into my room and laid next to me.
I looked at him confused because he's been staring at me for a couple minutes ever since he came to the room.

I put my phone down and looked at him.

"What?" I tilted my head to the side.

"I can't stare at you?" He raised his eyebrow.

"Not like that." I rolled my eyes.

He chuckled. "Why you didn't wanna talk to Edwin?"

"I don't know. Ever since that night you got into an accident, he's been acting different." I shrugged.

"Different?" he tilted his head.

"Yeah.." I nodded.

"Like?" he asked looking concerned.

"The look in his eyes and everything." I sighed.

"Baby, maybe he just had a bad day, who knows?" He shrugged.

"Yeah, a bad day every time he sees me, huh?" I chuckled.

"So what do you want now? You want me to talk to him?" He started running his hand through my hair.

I shook my head. "Not necessary."

"You're gonna see him more often so I want you and him solve whatever the problem is between you two." He held my hand and rubbed it with his thumb.

"I'll think about it, okay?" I said. didn't feel like continuing the conversation.

"That's my baby." he smiled and kissed my lips.

I kissed him back. He put his hand on the back of my neck and the other hand on my lower back. I put both of my hands on the sides of his face.

He slid his hand in my pants and squeezed my ass. I positioned myself on top of him.

"Don't you think this is too early?" He asked.

"You're acting like we never had sex right after we woke up. Shut up now." I continued kissing him.

He put his hands on my hips then ran one of his hands to my breasts and squeezed one of them causing me to moan.

I took his clothes off and he took mine off. He positioned himself on top of me and start kissing my body from my neck to my inner thighs.

"Ready?" he looked at me in the eyes and I gulped knowing what's gonna happen and no tapping out.

I nodded.

"Use your words." he said demanding.

"yes." I closed my eyes immediately.
