It is about 11 pm after the party. Everybody (well almost everybody) is back in their hotel room. Taraji was still caught up in what happened earlier that evening, she couldn't look at Terrence the whole night after their kiss and Terrence couldn't stop looking at her.

she arrived at her hotel room and tried to open her room with fumbling hands until she made it in...

She was feeling guilty, she hated herself for letting it happen thinking about two people who are victims of this incident, Mira and Kelvin.

She tossed her clash bag on her bed and start pacing on the floor.. she was a little drunk, way past being tipsy but not too drunk. She pulled her phone from the bag and attempt to call Terrence then hung up... She tries to text him

*we need to talk*
then deleted it and typed again...
*where are you?*
She deleted it and tossed the phone on her bed as she continued pacing.

A few minutes later ... There was a knock on the door, the knock snapped her out of her thoughts, and she walked to the door and asked who it was... Terrence on the other side of the door replied...

"open the door Taraji, we need to talk"
She gasped a little then sighed. she looked at the doorknob and then trolled her way closer. She took her time before opening the door for him.
He walked in like something was chasing him, He was drunk out of his senses... He turned and looked at her for a couple of seconds without saying a word and just looking at her...

"What Happened--"
"...was a mistake!" Taraji completed cutting him off.
Terrence paused and looked at her pissed off
"a mistake?" He shouted without realizing then pulled himself together.
"What do you mean a mistake? We kissed, we both felt it, we both wanted it to happen, it happened and it meant...Everything. Why are you trying to hide?"

"what do you mean hiding?... I am not hiding." She shouted back. "Yeah it happened, What now? Huh? what now Terry?"

"We figure it out," he said
"figure what out? The fact that I am engaged or the fact that you are married? What are we figuring out Terrence?" she sounded frustrated as hell.

Terrence walked towards her, She backed away.
"don't come any closer" her tears were shimmering down. "just leave me alone!" she yelled her frustrations out.
Terrence didn't know what to do at that point.
he walked towards her, paused in her presents and stroked her hair and wiped her tears.
"It was always you... You know that. I always wanted you. I want you!" he said.

"Terry you need to leave... please Get out" she was begging, Terrence pulled her into his arms. he gave her a little kiss. They both closed their eyes and digested while fighting the moment...

Next thing they were kissing again. He picked her up and threw her on her bed, they start kissing and touching and undressing each other in a hurry. hungry for each other. "S-stop!" Taraji starts moaning and telling him to stop. Terrence stopped and looked at her. she pushed him off of her. "This is not right!" she said crawling away from him and pulling a sheet to protect her nakedness.

"How can you conclude without knowing how it feels first?" he asked

"I know it will feel like a headache, a migraine afterwards, it will feel horrible after," she told him.

"Okay, how about during, how will it feel during?" he asked her.
her heart was beating fast curling in a little corner of her bed vulnerably. the sight of it was a turn-off for Terrence. suddenly he felt like he was committing a crime, a felony.

"I apologise. you don't have to be scared. I won't hurt you, I am so sorry" he said genuinely, she caught herself in a position and stretched in bed. "I wasn't scared. I was- I--"

Terrence was already pulling clothes and throwing them on. He stormed to the bathroom.

That position was a real turn off for him. It had him worried. He felt like he was making her uncomfortable and that was the last thing he wanted to do.
