Chapter 4

When Chris got home we discussed the cruise, which I discovered was a 4 day cruise, which was fine. We'd rent a party bus from the International Limo of South Florida, for the three and a half hour drive to Orlando to Miami. Now, we just have to get the rooms situated but we'll save that for tomorrow. Chris said he had to talk to me.

"So what is it that you have to talk to me about?" I asked sitting on his lap.

"Remember that woman in the bar for years back?" he asked me.

That statement made me so nervous. I tried my best to stay cool, calm, and collected but thinking of the next words to come out of his mouth possible being "I've been having an affair with her", or "I'm leaving you for her", or even...

"Babe?" Chris said lightly shaking me, "did you hear me?"

"Yeah... Yeah I heard you. I remember," I said cautiously.

"Calm down. We've had four happy years and that's not going to change," he assured me, I was somewhat relieved but still nervous because I mean come, how'd she come up out of no where?

"I just found ou today that somehow she knows Brandi and she was going to her house when I was coming out."

"So... what happened?" I asked impatiently.

I guess he was sensing my uneasiness and responded, "long story short, she hit on me again. I told her that I told you about the little encounter that her and I had four years ago and that tonight wasn't going to be any different. She doesn't get the words "I'm not interested" to often obviously because when I told her that her response was "we'll see"."

I was heated by her statement. As she could see, he had a family and still wants to try and come in between that. But I should know better right? Chris wasn't going to cheat, especially with a woman who was throwing herself at him.

"Say something baby. I want to know what's on your mind."

"I don't know what to say. As long as she doesn't cross my path or my children's paths then she could consider herself safe. If it uncomfortable to you, file a restraining order."

"Are you comfortable?"

"I can't say that I am but I don't feel theatened. Like I said, as long as she keeps away from our family, she's good. Otherwise, I'll take matters in to my own hands," I responded, "we'll always have admirers from afar but if they get to close as in stalking, then a problems has been created."

I noticed that I was really referring to Rashad more than this woman from the bar but he didn't know that. I was flattered that he's honest enough to tell me these things butI just couldn't fix my mouth up to tell him about Rashad but I always thought rationally, he didn't. He'd always be as possessive as he was when we were just "best friends".

"Understandable," was his response, then he kissed me on my forehead, "I love that you don't blow things out of proportion."

I smirked, "sure. But you'd probably like if I did though."

"Hmmm, how you figure?"

"Last time I checked you were a fan of angry sex."

"Right you are," he responded in a husky voice then kissing me full on the lips.

I kissed him back slowly and right when he reached for my thigh I slipped away from him.

"I've got to start dinner."

"I'm not hungry," Chris said trying to lore me back in to the bed.

"I am," I smirked back towards the door.
