Let Me Figure It Out [5]

Tasha
I woke up this morning with the meanest headache ever. I rode over out the bed and took off the dress from last night and hopped in the shower. Once I was finished I went and finished my hygiene then threw on a t-shirt and some shorts and went downstairs where I seen Angie and Mario cuddled up on the couch.
"Well good morning my lil alcoholic" she said cheerfully making me flick her off while grabbing some medicine out the cabinet.
"That was not nice considering I brought you back last night" she said
"I'm pretty sure Ja'Dia you mean" I said swallowing the pills
"Nope she stayed and finished off the night with her new boo"
"What new boo?" I asked
"Why don't you ask her there she go" just then Jay had came in with her hair looking wild
"Good morning " she said pouring some cereal in a bowl at the island
"Well a might damn good Morning it is who rocked your world last night your hair looks a mess"
"I most definitely was in my bed last night beside you honey nobody been up in this" she said while chewing
"Oh well what new boo I don't remember you being with no one last night"
"Of course you don't You you was throwing back drinks faster than i could make them" Mario added
"I know right you passed out on the couch while we was talking"

SARAH

I was woken up to the sound of my front door being slammed shut up. I put on my robe then cautiously walked down the stairs to see who it was.

"What you creeping up on me for?" Dre said making me scream and run
"Aye chill baby it's just me" he said grabbing me before I could take off
"Damn It Dre I thought someone had broke in here" I said catching my breathe still
"I done told you about putting an alarm in here and I'm gonna teach you how to shoot also so you can be prepared"
"No I don't like guns and besides that's why I got you daddy." I said rubbing his chest
"Well daddy ain't gonna always be here" he walked off putting the food on the stove
"You brought me breakfast thank you baby. Where's your car at I didn't see it out there" I asked warming up the pancakes
"Oh - it-it's acting up on me again baby I put it in the shop my friend dropped me off" he said throwing himself on the couch
"You ok you look exhausted"
"I am you don't know the half" he said texting on his phone. I noticed he gets real quiet when he's into his phone but I never say anything to him about it.
"Babe I might need to borrow one of your cars until mines get fixed" he stated looking at me
"Yes that's fine but look I really need to talk to you" I went and sat on the couch sitting in front of him while eating my food.
"What's up"
"If you serious about what you said to me I need you to put your phone away" I said sternly making him look at me confused
"What's going on what's wrong with you?"
"Do you love me Dre?"
"Of course I do baby why-"
"Do you see yourself with me?"
"Yes that's why I'm still here baby where is this-"
"Well what's the hold up? We've been in this same whatever you wanna call it relationship for over a year now Dre!" I said getting annoyed
"Baby calm down where is this coming from we agreed to take it slow remember"
"Don't tell me to calm down and yea we agreed at the beginning because you said you were getting out of an relationship remember?" I snapped
"Babe in due time I swear to you everything will fall into place we can't rush this alright?"
"But you keep-" he cut me off
"Listen to me. We both want this to work and last forever but I wanna make sure this is what we want for sure. I don't wanna go down the line a few years from now and we fall apart you get what I'm saying Sarah?" I nodded
"And look baby what's got you bringing this up now last night was perfect I didn't hear you stress one time" he said getting up walking towards me sitting beside me
"I know I know it's just when you popped up yesterday I was shocked. You leave randomly and I only hear from you when you can call me."
"You know I be busy girl-"
"Bullshit Dre seriously I'm supposed to be your girl you don't think I wanna hear from you to know that your okay? You think I like coming home to an empty house after a long day at work and not have you here to tell me relax when I'm freaking out over work?" I say while becoming emotional causing a few tears to fall.
"Shhh stop that crying girl you know I love you. And I'm sorry I'll make it better I promise"
"You said this the last time I brought this up. And why can't I call you huh? I mean a text is not the same if I can't see you I at least wanna hear your voice" he whipped my tear pulling me into his lap while rubbing my back trying to calm me down.
"Sarah look at me. I know and I'm sorry this job got me working shifts all throughout the week and into the weekends. And you know i would be here more if you weren't so far from my work place. Baby we been through this I thought we were pass it but I see it still affects you just give me a few more weeks and I'll straighten it out ok." He said more softly into my ear
"Okae " I whispered back
"I love you Sarah"
"I love you Adreeyan" I chuckled
"Woah you saying the government now" he said tickling me making me squirm trying to get away but he held a tight grip on me
"Stoppppp please you gonna make me pee on you" soon as I said that he threw me on the couch with his hands in the air.
"You got it " he said making me laugh still catching my breath
"Now finish eating before your food gets cold" he said handing me my plate and drinking my orange juice. I can't help but to love this man, he makes me happy and I hope I do the same for him.
