Save Me

Jahseh
One More Chapter!!!

"Oh."

"My."

"God." We both speak in unison and stare at each other.

"No new babies, right?" Zendaya asks out of breath and I nod.

"None. I think we did a pretty good job of making sure that didn't happen." I stare at the ceiling and she sighs.

"High five." We slap hands and laugh like idiots. I pull her to me and she groans like she just ran a marathon.

"You're lazy as fuck. You didn't even have to move, I pulled you over here." I laugh and she shrugs.

"So." She mumbles and I smile, kissing her head. Minutes later, the doorbell rings and we both groan, not wanting to move. I sit up and run a hand through my hair.

"I'll get it, you get presentable." I mutter and she laughs.

"Nah, I was just gonna answer the door naked." She jokes and I laugh, climbing off the bed and putting on shorts. I fix my hair, not wanting to look too sleazy and I leave my room, leaving the door slightly cracked. When I get down stairs, I see through the side window, Geneva's car and I punch the air, cussing silently that she's back here.

Okay, Jahseh. Happy mood, happy mood.

I coach myself before opening the door to look at Geneva who I haven't seen in like a week or two. She looks at me expectantly, standing taller and straighter, throwing on a smile.

"Hey, Jah." She says calmly and I nod.

"Hey. What's up?" I run a hand through my hair, hoping it's not too wild and she smiles softly.

"Nothing much, I was thinking and went on a thinking drive that lead me here." She says casually and I cross my arms over my chest, regretting not putting on a shirt.

"Uh huh." I mutter and she sucks in a breath.

"I saw you signed up for summer football at the community center this summer." She makes conversation and I nod.

"Yeah, I have a lot of extra time now and I wanted to do something fun before I went off to school-"

"You going to that college two states away now?" She raises a brow and I frown.

"Um no, I have priorities here that I need to take care of, besides I'm happy now with my daughter and-"

"That's not your daughter, Jah." Geneva frowns and I nod.

"I care for her, provide for her, feed her, bathe her, hold her, kiss her tears away and love her. Biological or not, she's my daughter." I narrow my eyes at her and she shakes her head.

"That's not right for you to just replace the baby I was carrying with a stranger's-"

"First of all, Zendaya's daughter wasn't a stranger since she was like four months pregnant, we had a strong connection even then. She knows me as her dad and her as my daughter. Get over it, Geneva. Why are you really here? I'm sick of arguing with you." I feel my happy mood fly out the window, and she clears her throat.

"I don't believe what you had said to me a couple of weeks ago." She places her hands on her hips and I raise a brow.

"What? That I don't have any feelings for you whatsoever?" I ask and she nods.

"I think there's something inside of you that still longs for what we had." She protest and I shake my head, chuckling lightly.

"Geneva, that's crazy. I wouldn't lie to you honestly. Sure, the sex was good, but I don't have any strong serious feelings for you anymore." I calm down my laughs and whip my head down as petite hands push me out the door and on the front porch with Geneva.
