Criminal Minds (Sequel to Criminal Lovers)

Chapter 1 | Heart Ain't A Brain

 (Sadé’s P.O.V.)

[July 22, 2013. 12:03 am]

My arms flapped around as tossed and turned in my king sized bed - my body getting tangled in the bedsheets. The bed was so huge, I could roll a couple feet across the bed, without falling off - and that’s exactly what I did. Back and forth I rolled, constantly glancing at the digital clock that was placed on my Edenvale nightstand. It was only 12:03 am, and it seemed as if five minutes ago, it was 12:02. Time moves slowly when you’re bored as hell.

I couldn't sleep for multiple reasons. One, I was beginning to think over the 'Jacob molesting a child' situation. My heart didn’t want to believe it, but my head was telling me there’s a possibility it’s true. Jacob was a criminal, but I could never imagine him molesting a child - that’s bad, even for Jacob. And plus, if Jacob molested Jasmine’s younger sister, then why is she dating Jacob? Either she’s dumb as fuck or a liar.

Two, Ray Ray forced me to allow Jasmine and Jacob to stay in my house - well technically, it's not just my house, I'm also sharing it with Dig, Ray, Craig, Bri, Jeniya, and Jemiya - but still... Everyone understands my feelings towards Jacob, so why haul him into my house? That's only going to create more unnecessary drama. 

Three, I could hear Jasmine and Jacob having sex in the room horizontal to mine. It was almost like they wanted me to hear them, as if Jasmine was trying to rub the fact that she's now dating Jacob - in my face. And as much as I hate to admit it, it was working.

I flipped my freshly washed bed sheets off of my body, and observing them as they flew across the bed then softly landed on the floor. I slipped on my slippers and tightened my robe over my naked body - yes, I sleep naked - as I scurried out my bedroom. I banged on Jacob's door, rubbing my temples as I waited impatiently for him to answer the door.

All the grunting and moaning came to a halt, and I could hear Jasmine asking Jacob a question, but I couldn't understand what. I heard the bed move around as Jacob's huge body slid off of it. He unlocked the door in a swift movement, then slowly creeped open the door as he peaked his head out - using the door to shroud the bottom half of his nude body. He looked around before his eyes landed on me, he smiled. "Would you like to join? The more the merrier.”

I scoffed, "No thanks." I pulled on my robe belts as I tightened my robe tighter. I stepped back a bit, but Jacob dragged me closer to him by the belt loops on my robe. The gap between us closed, and our bodies were pressed against each other. We were so close, I could feel his heart beating at a steady pace. 

He brushed his lips over mine then pressed our foreheads together. I furrowed my eyebrows, "Stop it Jacob." I placed my hand on his chest, pushing him away. "You're the one who said you were over me, so stop leading me on."

He licked his lips, glancing back at Jasmine - who was going through her phone, looking bored as hell -  before he stepped into the hall, shutting the door behind him.

I tucked my arm behind my elbow as I covered my mouth with my hands, trying my hardest not to look down at Jacob's "little friend". Had he forgoten that he was still naked? "You really believed me when I said I was over you?" He chuckled, caressing my cheek.
