GAME ON!

PLAYER

It has been strange since me and Dre had our conversation. It had been a month and I have not seen him in person and he kept our phone conversations short. He started to text me less often and sometimes would only text me once a day and now down to about three times a week. I needed to talk to him. So I decided to call.

"Hey Dre. We need to talk."

"Oh yeah, what about?"

"About us."

"Is there still an us?", Dre said.

"Dre I told you that day I left that I loved you and wanted to be with you and you even admitted to me that you may not be fully ready for the next step but I didn't think we had completely broken up."

"Kevin listen I am at the bar right now with the boys so you want to hurry this up and get to the point."

Shocked he was speaking to me like this, I knew something was up. I was about to speak when I heard a female voice say, "Dre who you talking to I am ready to go back to your room and get that zaddy dick again." I almost dropped my damn phone when I heard her.

"Dre if you with someone just step away for a second and tell me the truth. Tell me that you done with this and I will move on completely."

"Hold on baby, can't you see I am on the phone", he said to the female.

Dre explained to me that he had to go outside for a moment to speak with me privately.

"Kevin, I do not know what we are anymore. I just know that you turned me down and just about everyone wants to be on this dick. I told you about the strip club head incident but that still would give you no reason to be that way you were with me that day. Do you really think that someone like me, a millionaire, a sexy football player can be completely faithful?"

"Dre I knew you could not be completely faithful at this time in your life, especially hearing your drunk ass talk to me now. I am starting to think there were other incidents as well."

"Maybe and maybe not but if there were that's none of your business now is it?"

A tear fell from my eyes. I began to sniffle into the phone and knew I needed to hang up.

"Dre I got to go, have fun with that ho and thank you for finally keeping it 100 with me and letting me know that you fucked up more than once."

"Kevin........"

Before he could finish I hung up. I grabbed my headphones and turned on the music app and started listening to music drowning out my feelings. From day 1 I did not want him to pursue me for a relationship. I was the one who had my reservations and knew he was not ready and I was right. He gave me a red flag with that Anastacia situation and that should have been my cue but I kept telling myself we were not serious at that time.

Months had gone by and Kevin had texted me a few times and we kept it short but now I know he was busy with the game again. The game of fucking who he wanted and getting what he wanted then dropping them and the football game. A new season had started. I saw on the media sites that he had been linked to at least three women and Anastacia again. Looks like I dodged a bullet.

"Do not worry about him Kevin. Omar was an asshole, Dre is an ass hole, hell about 90% of them are assholes, cheaters and manipulators", Tamika said taking a bite of her food.

"You probably right Tamika but I still feel there is some good inside of Dre. Like the times we spent together have been unmatched. Honestly I did and still do love that man. Part of me feels like I made a mistake but reading headlines such as the ones I am seeing now I know that I made the right decision to leave him alone."

"That's right best friend. His lifestyle will not allow him to be with just one woman and definitely not no man."

We continued to eat and talk about how much of a player Dre had showed himself to be. More weeks passed by and of course Dre was still busy with the football season. I would check my instagram and now saw a new headline that one of the chicks he was involved with may be pregnant and he may be the father. I was not surprised one bit. One day out of the blue I got a call from Dre.

"Kevin, its been a while. How you been man?"

"I have been great. I am advancing in my career and possibly moving into a new apartment soon. How about you?"

"Shit man busy playing and chilling. I kind of miss fucking with you though."

"Dre, although the sex was good I am sure you have plenty others you can hit up to get your nut. Is that why you are calling me?"

"Listen I do not trust these other dudes and although pussy is great, I got my best nut with you."

"Please lets not do this", I said.

"Let's not do what. We have already done so much and do not act like you do not miss it as well."

"I do miss some of the times we had but in the back of my mind I feel like I was a good nut to you and could offer good conversation but your heart was not fully with me yet."

"Kevin I am falling into the same pattern as before. Being with women who just want the fame and the money but do not want to converse on the level that me and you could. Can you fly down here this weekend and talk with me?"

"Dre I know that if I go to your place we would end up fucking and you will end up getting into my head again. You have what you want right there with you."

"You do not have to be so cold to me. I know I cut off conversation and have become distant but still we have at least a little history."

"We do but not enough to make me want to be one of the many of your fuck buddies. I am looking for more and you know and I know you can not give that to me right now."

Dre sighed and said, "so I guessing that is a no to my invitation to come see me?"

"You are right! Goodbye Dre."

I hung up the phone but almost picked it back up to call him but knew what road I would be taking so I decided against it. Dre was a player and I do not think he was mature enough yet to handle me.
