Alexis' POV
“I haven't talk to him in two days”
“Baby girl, if you really like this guy then your gonna have to talk to him”
I sigh “But I don't wanna”
Daddy laughs “He might not be picture perfect but none of us are”
“I guess your right”
“That's my girl”
“When is mom coming back?”
“Tomorrow”
“Are you gonna pick her up or--” just then his pager goes off
“If this isn't an emergency I won't go”
“Daddy you work in the ER everything is an emergency
He sighs “I know I promise we'll talk later” he kisses my forehead
“Bye daddy”
“Bye baby girl” he says walking out of the door
I pick up my phone dialing Tre's number the phone rings once before he answers “Hi”
“Hi, could you come over?”
“Yeah, I'll be there in fifteen minutes”
“Okay” I say hanging up
*-*-*-*-*
“I'm sorry I didn't tell about me living with Alexa sooner I just didn't wanna lose you...I really like you Alexis”
“I really like you too that's why I'm putting my trust in you that you won't slip up and do something stupid”
“Thank you”
“So can you tell me about what happened between you and her?”
“Are you sure?”
I nod my head as I sit Indian style on my couch
“Alexa and I were high school sweethearts we both wanted to make in the music industry so we moved here but things started to change all she wanted to do was party and get drunk I couldn't deal with her anymore so we broke up”
“And?”
“I would move out but all my money goes towards my music”
I nod my head “So you live there rent free?”
“Alexa's parents bought us a house”
“You live in a house with her!”
“Yeah, we also used to be engaged”
“Engaged!”
“Yeah, it was two years ago I've moved on and so has she”
“So all the women you've dated have been okay with this”
“Some have and others haven't”
“You don't have kids right?”
“Well..”
“Tremaine!”
He starts laughing “No kids I promise”
“That's a lot to take in”
“I know”
“Your really lucky you know that?”
“Yes, I've a women like you in my life” he says moving closer to me
“Hmm” I say pressing my lips to his
Ezekiel's POV
The bathroom is slams open then the shower curtain is pulled back “Thank you so much” Mariah says jumping into the shower
“I take it you seen the couch”
“Yes and I love it...but I love you more she says kissing all over my face
“Your welcome”
“What changed your mind?”
I shrug “I just want you to be happy” I say kissing her
“Can we sleep on the couch tonight?”
“Damn Riah you that excited about the couch?”
“Yes” she says stripping off her clothes
“Oh looks like I'm about to get a show”
“I'm give you more then a show babe” she says pressing her lips back to mine
I pull away “All this for a couch?”
“What I can't come home and wanna make love to my man”
“Mariah what did you do?”
“Why do you always have to ruin the moment?”
“Mariah” I press
She sighs “Fine, I bought a couch too”
“And what you thought I wouldn't notice when my couch was replaced with some girly shit?
She shrugs “I don't know” she wines
“When is your couch getting here?”
“Tomorrow”
“Naw, you need to tell those people to return that shit back to the factory and get yo' money back”
“Okay” she says kissing my chest “How about I buy you a new tv?”
“Naw, I like the tv I got now”
“Baby, I'm sorry”
I get out of the shower I grab a towel and go straight to our bedroom
“Zeke” she says following me
“Naw, Mariah you know how much I hate that sneaky shit and you went behind my back after I told you no”
“Nigga you ain't in charge of me you can't tell me no, I'm a grown ass women!” she yells
“Whatever Mariah I'm not about to argue with you about this”
“You act like I did some horrible so what I bought a fuckin' couch it's not that big of a deal”
“That's not the point”
“Then what's the point, Zeke please enlighten me”
“Ever since you moved in all my shit has been tossed to the left I feel like I don't belong here anymore...”
Mariah grabs my face “You belong in my heart, in my arms, me and you 'til the end, remember that”
I lick my lips “Me and you 'til the end”
“We good?”
“As long as you stop doing sneaky shit behind my back”
“I won't do anymore sneaky shit behind your back I promise” she says kissing me again
