"M-Mason?"I asked again with a shaky voice not believing that I finally met him after all these years
"Yes, it’s me Bri. I'm here now. I won't let anybody hurt you," he leant closer to me and caressed my cheek with his thumb, making me grin from ear to ear when I remembered our childhood. He was my best friend, but I fell head over heels in love with him. I'm still hopelessly in love with him after all these years. I’ve never loved anyone besides him. I want to show him I love him more and more with each passing second, I want to take his hand in mine, stand by his side, snuggle on with him on the couch just like the old times.
"Bri? Bri? Are you okay princess?"He asked, perplexed, waving a hand in front of my face,snapping me from my daydream
Damn boy stop being so cute.I can't handle that
"Abrielle?" he questioned again clearly worried
"Hmmm?" I hummed staring at him with complete adoration
"I need to tell you something."He mussed his hair with his hands.Something he usually do when he's nervous
"I'm all ears Mase," I winked at him. He hates it when I call him Mase but after all I am here to annoy the shit out of him.
"My d-dad," he started to say before the bedroom door opened and a red-headed girl wearing a mini dress that barely covered her ass approached us.Her 7 inch stilettos clicking sharply on the hardwood floor,a sick smile danced on her lips as she made her way towards us making me want to throw up.
"Hey baby," she muttered, tossing her arms around Mason's neck and pecking his soft lips.
I felt a pang of jealousy and hurt in my chest as I saw them together. ‘Baby’? Is Mason dating her?My fingers convulsively clenched into fists for an instant before I hiss in pain and relaxed
"What are you doing here Stacey?" Mason questioned, a hint of anger in his voice as he pushed her hands away from his body
She seemed unfazed by Mason's behaviour as she turned her attention back to me "Who is she?"She asked, sneering at me.
"None of your business"Mason snapped at her
"Oh, I see, another bitch who's trying to get into your pants and steal your money. You gold digger," She spat and started to approach me when Mason stood up and stopped her.
"Get the fuck out Stacey, don't make me lose my patience," He yelled at her, eyes brooding anger.
"You want me out of your life completely?" she muttered, tears forming in her eyes, clear as the shining sun. His life? She's probably his girlfriend. Who was I to think that he would reciprocate the same feelings as me?
"Stacey, we had a one-night stand. You were just a fling in my life and don't mean anything to me. Now get out before I have to make you," He hissed and she nodded her head, leaving the room quickly. Oh a one-night stand? Now Mason isn't so little anymore.I see
