12:04am - Megan: i need to see you, just come spend the weekend with me...
I frowned before locking my phone, to say I was over it would be an understatement. I've reached the point where I've realized that nothing will change and I've come to accept that. I just needed Megan to stop trying to persuade me otherwise.
I was done.
I'll admit in a heartbeat that part of this is my fault, I'm always giving in to Megan. I'd let her take me away only to be brought back into the cruel reality, the reality that we could never truly be together.
I made a promise to respect myself, that meant not caving every time Megan called or texted. I was to stand my ground no matter what.
Why?
Because, things wouldn't change if I replied to Megan and we got away. I couldn't pack up and go for a weekend anymore. I needed more than half of what Megan could give.
Two unread.
12:14am - Megan: Mani, hear me out pls
I would be lying if I said I didn't almost fail the one job I had. Extremely too close to waving my white flag, my fingered lingered over the thread for what felt like forever before I shook my head. I was instantly disappointed in me, 'you deserve better, Kordei so do better.' I found myself muttering those words more than I should have but sometimes I needed to remind myself.
My heart rate quickened as a laugh fell from Megan's full lips, I couldn't fight the smile off of my face. Megan was so beautiful and it seemed unreal sometimes.
"Stop staring at me." Megan teased, sticking her tongue out playfully causing me to gently mush her head. "Now if I beat your ass you'd be screaming domestic violence."
I chuckled, she wasn't wrong, but, in my defense she had a huge advantage over me. She was bigger than me, taller and ultimately stronger which was fine by me because she always made me feel safe, well, physically that is.
I scooted closer to Megan and laid my head on her shoulder while she wrapped the blanket tightly around us. I should have been focused on the movie but I couldn't, not with the intoxicating smell of Megan smothering me or the way Megan's hand on my thigh ignited fire in me.
Megan cuddled up closer to me and moved her head around like a puppy, She looked down at me and chuckled before kissing the top of my head.
"Mani?"
"Hmm?" I hummed while I opened my eyes that I'm sure Megan didn't know were closed. Megan peered down at me as I looked up at her. She stared at me wordlessly which made me nervous. She's stared at me countless of times, she's seen me naked and has done things to me that would make it hard for a lot of people to look me in the eyes if they ever knew. So why was her staring at me fucking me up? What is it about the way she's staring at me tonight...
"Now who's staring?" I spoke, trying to play off my nervous state though she probably already figured me out. She knew me like that.
Instead of her usual smart remarks, she flashed me a soft smile. "I'm sorry, you're just so beautiful." She informed me, her voice deeper than usual causing me to visibly swallow.
Gosh, was she trying to ruin my panties?!
"Why thank you, you're not too bad yourself." I joked while I wiggled my thick eyebrows, my only resort was to tease her because I was afraid my nervousness would worsen if I proceeded to keep things so serious.
"Come here." Megan practically whispered causing me to sit up and basically fall into her lap. Our eyes connected as she took my chin into her hands, she moved closer and brought our lips together. I sighed through my nose and instantly fell into the kiss Megan led, letting her captivate me.
