Treacherous Love

Our Child

"Raichelle!" I jumped and spilled tea on the rug, Maurice startled me bellowing my name. "Fuck" Wiggling off the couch I placed the tea cup on the glass coffee table. "Raichelle" I ignored him made my way to the linen closet in the bathroom to get a rag and wet it so that I could clean the tea up. I didn't want it to stain the rug. I was down in my hands and knees dabbing the area where I spilled tea. "Just perfect" I mumbled to myself. Using the arm of the sofa I was pulling myself up to go get some spot remover from the kitchen. "Rai...., you ok?!" He asked while rushing over to me to help me stand. "I'm fine, I just spilled some tea on my new rug" I said accepting his help. "Oh" his whole demeanor changed, but he grabbed the rag and left the livingroom. I assumed he was going to get the same thing I was trying to (spot remover). While he cleaned up the spill off the rug I took the tea cup and washed it. When I was finished I went upstairs and started to go to the guest bedroom, but he was coming up the stairs. "Man fuck that" he grabbed my hand and pulled me towards the master. I shrugged him off and screwed my face up at him. I think that kinda pissed him off because he walked up on me and when I took a step away my back was touching the wall. Was he trying to intimidate me? "I'm so sick of this shit" I mumbled. "Watch your fucking mouth" I bit my lip and began counting trying to calm myself. "Where do you think your going?" I could see his jaw twitching from him clenching his teeth. Unbelievable, he's mad at me. "To the bedroom" I figured if I answered him calmly and remained relaxed I might be able to explain to him that I was moving out. "You don't sleep in the guest room. Our room is this way" He said sarcastically motioning towards the master bedroom. I rubbed at a knot that was forming in my stomach as I made my way to the room.
"Where were you headed so early in the morning with a big ass duffle bag?" I took a deep breath and sat in the chair at the vanity. I decided against the bed and the recliner because I wanted him to know I wasn't getting comfortable, and I was serious about leaving. "To Regina's" I put my head down and stared at the print my sneakers were making on the plush carpet, normally I would raise hell if anyone stepped foot in our room with shoes on, but I was ready to go. My little card and cash pouch was in my bra, my keys were in my pocket and my phone was in my hands. He raised one eyebrow, tightened his lips and nodded his head. The way he was standing right in front of the door made it seem like he was playing defense or something, like he wasn't gonna let me past him. "So you was gonna just leave without saying shit to me?" He said scrunching his top lip up. Flipping my phone back and forth and biting my bottom lip I tried to figure out the best way to go about this. "Things between us have been.....umm...off for a bit and I think maybe it would best if....you know....we maybe took a step back to.." Meeting his gaze I started losing my nerve and having a hard time finding my words. "Go on" he said surprisingly calm while folding his hands over his chest. Swallowing hard I continued "Figure out our...well..make sure were on the same page. You know ...like a break.." I bit my bottom lip and huffed. I watched his body language and facial expression closely, I don't know what I was expecting, but I was damn sure gone be ready for whatever. "Hmmm..."  Gripping his well manicured beard he broke our eye contact and began his eyes back and forth as though he was in deep thought. Placing my hand on my stomach I leaned back a bit in the chair. That motion seemed to gain his attention and his eyes rested on my large belly. Arching my back I stretched my muscles a bit. He finally took a seat on the bed, but his eyes didn't leave my stomach. As though she could feel his stare Meadow began kicking. "You ready to go, I understand that....but not with my child." My eyebrows knit together as I rolled his words around in my mind. "So...you mean I can't leave untill I have the baby?! Is that you saying?" I huffed and sat foward ready to listen carefully to the next thing that came out his full lips. "Correct! After you have the baby you can leave and do whatever your little heart desires, and who ever for that matter." He chuckled. I rolled my eyes and smacked my teeth (This ninja smmfh). "However my daughter will stay here." I used the vanity to assist as I stood up. "What are you talking about? I'm leaving now, and just as she's with me at this very moment, that's exactly where she'll stay, WITH ME." Putting my hands on my hips I almost yelled it out I had gotten so angry so quickly. Who the hell did he think he was? "You mean OUR child! She's just as much mine as she is yours Raichelle!" He was now standing over me looking down at me as if he smelled a fart or something, with a corner of his lip raised. I saw his fists balled so I took a step back and put my phone in my pocket, but i didn't break eye contact. "You can't threaten to keep my child because I don't wanna be here with you right now. That's not at all how things work." Putting my hand on my stomach I shook my head hard for emphasis. "Fuck that shit! What you pretty much saying is because you carry her I have no rights as her father? If it wasn't for me you wouldn't even have her to carry dammit!" He had lost his composure and was hitting his fist into his other hand. I threw my hands up and stepped back some more trying to put myself in a better position to be closer to the door. "Listen! Calm down! That's not what I'm saying ok?!" Grabbing my shoulders he forced me to move so we were in opposite positions again. "This mutha fucka" I mumbled as I stared at the door. He popped me in my mouth with the back of his hand and instinctively I reached up and covered it. "Watch your mouth. How many times I gotta tell you yo? You gonna have my daughter thinking it's cool to cuss like a fucking sailor"  I sucked my bottom lip and balled my fist  pressing it to my lips as the familiar taste of blood fill my mouth. "You bust my lip" I said between clenched teeth. For a minute it was silent and no one moved. As tears began to fall down my cheeks he reached out and gently grabbed my chin to lift my head. When our eyes met all the anger and frustration was gone as he searched my eyes for my reaction. "Rai baby, you know I didn't mean to do that. I was angry and it came off rougher than I intended." He explained while pulling me into him for an embrace. At first I accepted the embrace, then I started pushing away. It wasn't a surprise that he didn't want to let up. "I'm a grown ass woman Maurice! Not some child that you can chastise." I noticed his lips tightened and his nose flared. "My daddy is six feet under and my mother doesn't even try to chastise me so who are you to do so?" I managed to wiggle out of his embrace, but he grabbed my wrists to keep me from completely pulling away from him. "Yo, you can drop the attitude. I apologized,it was an honest mistake." I took a deep breath trying to get my composure, I just wanted to leave. I tried to snatch away quickly from him, but that just made his hold tighten. "Raichelle its early as hell, why you wanna be out right now?"  Maurice bent down a bit to try to make eye contact, but I avoided it turning my head as tears began to fall again. "Where did you go? Why is it ok for you to leave whenever you want, but it seems like I'm on some sort of curfew like I'm a dam...I mean dang teenager or something" I corrected myself, because I was not about to have this ninja hit me in my mouth again. "I told you I had to handle something Rai" I tried yanking my wrist free again. "No! You actually didn't Maurice!" I yelled finally giving him eye contact. "You just took a phone call and left. I had no ideal what was going on" my voice was cracking. Releasing one of my wrists he ran his hand over his face and gave an exaggerated sigh. "I told you that I needed to handle something for Ann" Pulling me with him he sat on his recliner and wrapped his arms around my waist. "So what was so important that you would leave your pregnant fiance early in the morning to go be with your side chick turned baby momma? Keep in my your child is not even here yet!" Noticing that Meadow was active, he placed his hand on my stomach. "So if you needed me for something I wouldn't be obligated to handle that because you haven't given birth yet?!" He raised his eyebrows, I guess he was trying to make bbn it seem like it was a innocent question and he wasn't trying to manipulate me. "Ohhh! That is utter bullshit!" I jumped up so quick I almost bust my ass. "What your fucking mouth" he pointed his finger in my face and I slapped his hand away as I stepped back. I made a sudden race for the door and just as I turned the lock I felt his soft touch on my stomach "Don't leave". His hands caressed the sides of my belly and he rested his head in the crook of my neck.  I took a deep unsteady breath and tried to calm my heart. It was beating so hard I felt like he could hear it. My nose flared and I bit down hard on my bottom lip as I felt t eww ars sting my eyes. "Please" he whispered. I still had my hand on the doorknob. All I had to do was turn it and I could go. I could tell that he was giving in. If I didn't go this time, he would think he could treat me any type of way. I've had to deal with him putting one of my best friends in the hospital, his cheating and he conceived a child outside of our relationship, not to mention his controlling actions lately. I was starting to fear what would come next. He gently pulled my hand off the knob and intertwined our fingers. "You don't have to do this. Let's talk about it. You don't really wanna leave me do you Rai baby?" As the sickening feeling of defeat crept in I let a strangled loud sob and let my head fall foward until my forehead rest on the door. "Baby you know I love you, you gotta learn to communicate and stop running. We can work this out." I cried as he kissed my hand that he was holding, pulled my back to his chest and rest our joined hands over my large stomach. I palmed my face with my free hands as tears fell freely. My body began shaking and cries were steady. "Sssh he tried to sooth me rocking me side to side. I wanted to go,but I didn't wanna leave (if that makes any sense). I'm in love with this man, were engaged, I'm having his child, why would I wanna leave? Staying meant I had to compromise everything I stood for. On top of everything else, he's really been pushing it being to physical lately. "Let's just go to bed. We can talk about it after you get some rest." I began to take deep breaths to calm myself when I felt him kissing alone my neck and nibbling my earlobe. "Stop" my voice was cracking. I gasped when his hand went under my shirt. "Stop" it barely came out and was very raspy. When he unhooked my bra to free my breast and began playing my nipples I shook my head "No" it came out a whisper. Then he turned me to him and dipped his head down taking my nipple into his mouth twirling his tongue and gently nibbling "uuhhh" I held onto his shoulder and grabbed a handful of his dreads. When he pushed his hand in my pants and slipped his finger in my wetness I threw my head back "Oh god" I guess. That was the green light, because he picked me up and placed me on the edge of the bed while pulling down my pants and panties at the same time. I gripped his shoulders to steady myself, but when his tongue punged into pussy I arched my back and threw my hands out to the side grabbing the covers "aahhhh" I lost it as he devoured me.
