We Belong Together : Rayan Lopez story

the pressure

Emiko POV

I met up with Lauren at Starbucks.
We just sat there and talked for a long time.

" so what's going on Miko? I know something is up. " Lauren said as she sipped her Carmel frappé .

" well honestly i think something is going on with Ray and kamryn ".

" And this is too much for me to deal with right now . like I don't understand why he would just invite her to stay in our house . I have better things to worry about .."

" So are yall in an argument right now or .. " Lauren asked

" No we're fine. well at least I think we are . but with kamryn in our house , I know that there's going be some shit happening . she's so suspicious . they both are "

I checked my phone to see if Ray called back .
Nope.

" Miko just know that I love you like a sister and It will kill me to see you hurt . I will whoop a niggas ass " Lauren said laughing .

I laughed back
" I know " I said as we stood up.

We walked out of Starbucks and towards our cars.
Lauren walked me to my car and opened the door for me.

" remember if you need anything just call me , okay. "
"love you ". She said as she closed the car door.

" Okay . I love you too" I waved as I backed the car out of the parking space.

As I drove down the road my stomach started to ache.
"ugh..." I moaned to myself.

I rubbed my stomach slowly the rest of the drive home.

It was dark outside once I finally arrived at home.
I got out the car slowly. I was still in pain.

I took my keys out my purse and unlocked the front door.
Ray jumped up off the coach as I opened the door.

" baby! hey... you're back already?" He said.
He had nothing but a pair of sweatpants on.

" yea... umm.." I looked him up and down.

" Where's kamryn?" I asked him

She's upstairs

"Oh well I'm going to lay down. I don't feel good."

"Come here " he said as he grabbed me by my waist

" you're alright , okay. I'll be up In a minute " he said as he kissed my cheek.

" Okay " I said as I walked up the steps

I walked into our room. I kicked my shoes off and pulled my hoodie off as I laid down on the bed.

Kamryn busted into the room .She had on a bra and some shorts.

" Ray where's the -"
She paused when she realized it was me not ray.

" Oh you're not ray .. " she said in a smart voice as she left out the room.

" What the fuck..." I said as I got off the bed.

"RAY!" I yelled at the top of my lungs.

" HUH?" I heard him yell up the steps

" Can you come here? Like NOW! "

Ray appeared in the doorway a few seconds later.

" What? What's wrong? " He said as he sat on the bed.

" she has to go . She's over her prancing around in her bra and shit. like she has no respect for me and I'm not about to put up with her. I want her out , by tomorrow or I'll drag her out myself . "

" Emiko really ... "

" Yes really. Don't start with me right now rayan ."

" I'm not starting nothing , calm down "

Kamryn walked into the room again .

" Ray Can I get a towel so I can take a shower now " she said

" See , this is exactly what I'm talking about . " I explained to ray

" Listen Emiko , I've been trying to be all nice to you and be all cool or whatever , but you just always have something to say . " Kamryn said

" Kamryn I don't think you know who you're talking to . Who's house are you in ? Oh yea , mines . I'm trying to be nice by letting your broke ass stay in my house but you continue to disrespect me so yea I want you out of my house by tomorrow." I said to her

" Oh okay . I don't have a problem with that . But ray might miss my good sex game ....opps did I say that? My bad " She said as she left out of the bedroom.

" Kamryn ! REALLY?! " ray said as he hoped off the bed .

" No sit your ass back down ". I said to him .
I walked over to the bedroom door and shut it. I locked it behind me

" So this what you do to me? Like I can't believe you right now . I can't even look at you. "

" Emiko , baby I'm sorry , I'm sorry . " Ray said as he stood up.

" Did you have sex with her ray ? "
he didn't say nothing . he just stood there

" Rayan did you have sex with her ! " I said again .

" I didn't mean to. I'm sorry . I would never hurt you , you know that .."

Ray's POV

Emiko looked at me . Her big brown eyes full with water.

" So when are you leaving ? " She said as she went into the closet and grabbed some of my clothes. She threw them on the bed.

" What? What do you mean? No , I'm not going now where. "

" Yes you are . You don't have a choice. " She starting packing my clothes into a bag.

" Emiko I'm not leaving you , I can't " I grabbed the bag out of her hands .

She sat down on the bed . She covered her face with her hands.
" Like I'm so stressed out and I need a break . I just can't ... deal . " She said

I cradled her in my arms
" No don't cry . Please don't . "

I moved her hair out of her face and put it behind her ears . I wiped her tears with my thumb.
" I'm sorry baby . I'll do whatever you want . I leave for a while if that is what will make you happy "

" I just need a few days .. Or weeks . That's it . " She said .

" Okay , whatever you want. "
