You Can't Leave Me Now!

"So you're leaving again?" Vanessa ask Malik sitting up in bed as she watched him grab his pieces of clothes scattered around her bedroom from their intense lovemaking. Malik purposely ignore her to avoid confrontation. He knows what he's doing to both women is wrong but he couldn't stop it. He was raised in a single parent household and didn't want the same for his child, so he vowed to stay with Erica. He not only stayed with Erica for that very reason but because she had been apart of his life for four years and he couldn't stomach breaking her heart. On the other hand, he had this undeniable connection with Vanessa. She gave him this feeling that brought chills through his entire body. He found himself falling deeper and deeper in love with this black beauty and he didn't know how to stop it. She had him hooked and he craved her whenever he wasn't near her. He didn't understand how this bombshell could do this to him with little to no effort. He'd been with Erica for years but never had she given Malik the feeling he gets when he makes love to Vanessa, touch her, or just simply being in her presence. Which is why he found himself leaving the woman he loved only to slip inside the house he shared with the soon to be mother of his unborn. He hated lying but he knew if he tells Vanessa the truth there was a ninety percent chance she'd leave and he couldn't risk it.

"So you don't hear me Malik? Dammit I'm talking to you." Vanessa spats and steps out of her comfortable king sized bed. Her satin gray sheets fell in a pool at her feet as she charges towards Malik. Vanessa was angry because she knew he was hiding something from her. They didn't live together but whenever he would visit her, he only stays over once or twice a week and that was if she get lucky.

"Vanessa don't start this shit tonight. Don't act like you don't know what I do for a living. So you know I can't stay over with you all the time. I got business to take care of. Stop tripping." He said nonchalantly with his back to Vanessa refusing to look her in the eyes. He couldn't keep his lie going on if he made the mistake of capturing her stare.

"So we're going to keep up this lie. Malik I'm not dumb. I know when someone's attention is focused elsewhere and I'm not talking about on money but a bitch instead." She nudged his bareback as he tries slipping his shirt over his head. "Who is she? I told you once and I'll tell you again. I will not be another fool. I'm too loyal for this shit. I'm a damn good person. If you're seeing someone let's end this now. Yeah that's what's we're going to do." She push pass him and storm out her bedroom. Her naked body trailing down her hallway and heading towards her kitchen. Malik eyes followed her in shock before his body fell into step. Malik had blocked Vanessa out until he heard the words. Let's end this now. Those words made him snap back to reality quickly. He couldn't lose her and as selfish as it was he was going to tell her anything she needed to hear, to keep her by his side. He knew all the things she said was true. She was one hell of a good woman but when he met her, he was sure after they slept together, he'd be able to drop her and keep it moving. He was all wrong because for some reason she kept popping up wherever he went and then it became impossible to deny what not only what she was feeling but him as well.
