Royalty

LXVI. Unconditional love

~~~~~~
//Few minutes later//
[Rowan's Pov]

Now inside my bedroom, Roy came back from the bathroom and seemed to have gotten himself together finally. Little did he know, he wasn't the only one who had a bad dream tonight.

I had one about losing him completely. Wether he moved on and was happily married with 8 kids or he was gunned down right before I could tell him how much I missed him deep down. I think up above is trying to tell us something if we both had those types of dreams tonight. It was really opening my eyes...

"You okay?" I asked him.

"Yeah, I'm good" he replied, sitting on the right side of the bed next to me. "You know I hate crying like that but the dream I had just really got to me yo...."

"Tell me about it..."

He chuckled firstly and rubbed the back of his head, something that he tends to do when he's nervous.
"Well it started off by um-- *clears throat*....I was having a threesome with you and my ex Brandi--"

"Hmm" I said in a sarcastic hum.

"So me and you were making love as usual then shit just started getting weird. Brandi cursed me out when you two were giving me head and then you yelled at me for not protecting you well enough. Then you teleported all the way across the....whatever and Terrance, Ta'Joe, Frisco, Marvin and Mike had you. I saw them beat and rape you but Brandi had me hostage. Finally I was able to get up but each of them did something to break you down. Once I got close enough,....Mike killed you right in front of me as you looked up at me for help"

After his words, he looked away and wiped his eyes again.

"Wow..., I'm sorry you had to go through that. That was a bad dream. But...I'm not dead okay, I'm alive and well and all of those niggas are either dead or long gone Roy. So don't worry about that shit anymore, you...saved me already"

He nodded his head but still failed to turn around to me. From that moment on, I can tell that I really meant a lot to this man. He always got so.....emotional when assholes caused me significant harm. It was very....heart warming to know that my well being mattered to him so much. That I was unconditionally loved.

"I had a bad dream too tonight. You were taken away from me and I couldn't do anything about it. I let you go and....you either met the woman of your dreams or you were gunned down. I cried so badly at your funeral and broke down with Aanyah in my arms. It was just a rough night for the both of us..."

"Yeah..."

"I just...-- I just don't want that to happen to us Royal. Like I really don't. I know I might give you the cold shoulders sometimes but--...I would never want to be without you" I told him, letting my feelings get the best to me now too. ...just the thought of him and I never to see or be together again scared me. I admit that.

"Don't cry yo, I'm still here..." he finally looked at me and rubbed his hand on my legs to comfort me.

I nodded my head and bit down on my lip, trying to hold back the tears as much as possible. I hated crying too, only because I used to cry so much and it never changed anything. It was just a sign that I was vulnerable and at one of my lowest points.

"I'm not going anywhere okay, trust that..."

"You don't know that Roy, God forbid but someone could try us right now and take you out. Can just please be careful from now on, I don't know what I would do--"

"Rowan, you would be fine without me. Both you and Aanyah will be fine. You might even find the nigga of ya dreams..." he shrugged his shoulders, showing jealousy.

"Nah but I like how you sound really jealous about that though. Knowing that....you only get one "Nigga of your dreams" when I already had mine. He's just an annoying ass piece of shit right now but least the nigga love me"

He chuckled. "Mmm, what's his name?"

"None of your business...."

"NoNe OF yOuR BUsiNess" he mocked me.

I kicked him playfully, sadly causing him to take it out on my butt in a huge slap of his hands. I grabbed my poor cheeks in an instant and punched his arm instead, just before he could turn on his side. "I don't got time to be fighting with you girl, I'm tired..." he said.

"Turn back around to me" I whined, pulling on his arm.

He sighed and laid back down on his back, turning his head to me like he was annoyed. I took the opportunity to cuddle up to him and lay my head in the corner of his neck like old times. With my arm around his beautiful chest covered by a white beater and his arm slowly coming down to hold my body, we reconnected the love that was still there. It was dormant for a while but never gone.

I blame myself for not showing it as much after I moved to Washington but after that dream tonight, it's letting me see something that should've been clear all along.

I needed to claim my man again or someone else will with either a ring and kids or tragically.....a gun to his head.

"I wanna be with you again" I confessed softly, grabbing his fingers to play with them.

"--in the morning..." he groaned.

"You sleepy ass bitch...., you ruined the moment and I hate you" I mumbled, talking shit as I closed my eyes too.

"Heh, don't play with me. I told that ass I'm tired, we'll *yawns* talk in the morning. Love you and goodnight"

"Goodnight..."

To be continued...
