Badboy's Venom

chapter 22

Mike's POV

I step inside Zoe's home; the house is too small and simple for me. I guess it's big enough for the both of them. I'm still shocked by what Zoe's mom said. She should find herself a place where boys come and go?

Fuck Trigger!

That bastard slept with Zoe and accompanied her today morning. My blood is boiling more than ever now. I feel like breaking everything in the room. My eyes meet with Zoe's mom. Okay Mike you can do this. Compose yourself and play the perfect boyfriend.

Smile!

"Take a seat Mike." Her mom offers. She likes me already, fooled by the looks haha. I smile at her then at Zoe whose still on her feet giving me a dead glare. "Zoe's mom I-" "Call me Elizabeth please, Lizzy in short." She smiles. "Elizabeth I think is best I leave, Zoe's mad at me." I say narrowing my eyes. "Zoe don't be rude to our guest, look he even bought you flowers." Elizabeth says as she takes in hand the bunch of flowers then brings them towards her nose. "They even smell nice." She compliments.

"You can have them if you want I don't want to talk to him." Zoe's voice is full of anger. Her arms are crossed as she's still on her feet. She's still mad at me, she's hurt. I stand up and move close to her. I humble myself before her and kneel down with one knee, looking directly into her shinning eyes as I grab her soft hand into mine. "All I'm asking for is two minutes of your time." I ask her with a pleading voice. "Zoe it's rare to find a gentleman like Mike nowadays. Just give him a chance to explain himself I'm sure whatever you're mad at you'll find a solution to it."

I look at Elizabeth, thanking her with my eyes then back at Zoe. "Fine two minutes only." She begins walking towards the backdoor, that leads outside I guess. I follow her behind as I move my lips 'Thank You' to Elizabeth. She lip-reads and nods.

ZOE'S POV

"Minus ten seconds." "Baby look there's no need to be rude." Mike says as he moves towards me. "You can't be asking two minutes of my time then after that you walk like a snail." I tell him. "Mhh I like this feisty Zoe." Mike shoots me a side smile and I fall for it, I quickly give him a serious face again.

"Zoe I really love you. I don't want you viewing me as a womanizer. Yes I admit I made a mistake. She's nothing compared to you, you are everything to me. If I didn't care about you ask yourself what I am doing here. I even bought you flowers." Mike sighs after his long slow speech.

"So it's about the flowers now?" "No baby-" he pauses then grabs my hand. "You weren't supposed to see what you saw. What were you doing at the house party by the way?" He questions with a concerned voice.

"I never knew you were a party host, all I did was to visit my boyfriend."

"Don't be like that please. So did you do it?"

"Did what?" I ask him back with confusion. He looks directly into my eyes.

"Did you sleep with Trigger?" I release my hand from his.

"So that's what you think of me?" I remark with anger.

"Just answer the question yes or no?" He says with no emotions in his voice.

"No I didn't, I wouldn't do such. Carl and I are friends."

"Friends huh? You've known him for a day, hours even and now you are best friends. What happens next? You fuck each other like we did." He says nonchalantly. "How dare you say that? Don't you ever a single day compare yourself to Carl. You're nothing like him. At least he doesn't pretend to be someone he's not." I shout at Mike, throwing him a disgusted look.

"Zoe I'm sorry okay, I didn't mean to upset you." He hugs me and I begin to cry. He slowly moves his warm hands on my back then lifts up my chin using his four fingers, something he frequently does when he wants all my attention.

"I'm forgiven right?" He asks with a low voice. I look into his eyes then answer. "Yes but promise not to hurt me again." "I promise baby." Mike says and kisses me, I kiss back. We head back inside the house. Mom already placed the flowers in a vase, LOL. "Ncohh look how beautiful you two are." Mom compliments. Mike and I are holding hands as we smile at her. "Thank you" we both say at the same time and laugh. "Come for dinner next week Friday at 19:00pm." Mom invites Mike. "I'll surely be here, thank you a lot." Mike acknowledges then leaves.
