She walked in the room and slammed the door behind her. Delaney and Detrick say at the coffee table playing with her laptop while Paris played with her dolls and Alec laughed at her childlike state.
"WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT!" She yelled.
"What was what?" He responded.
"You being a complete asshole to someone who has done nothing to you."
"You mad? What did I spoil your picture perfect moment with him?" He stood from the floor and sat on the couch. "In my opinion you're wasting your time." He leaned back adjusting his clothes.
"Detrick no one asked for your opinion." Dessiah responded.
"You didn't need to ask for my opinion when it's a fact that he wanted to leave. You're the one chasing behind him LIKE SOME DAMN LOST PUPPY!" His matched hers and Paris knew that was never good.
"Umm Delaney why don't we go down stairs and fly the kite." Alec asked smiling.
"Ummm okay. Are you sure?"
"Very. Come on Paris." He stood and Delaney went to get her kite.
"Uhh ugh you guys go ahead I wanna stay and watch this." Paris sat amused and Alec pulled her up by her hand towards the door. "Babe I want to stay." She whined.
"Paris I will put you over my shoulder, come on." Alec spoke with authority.
"Ooo promise." She said smiling seductively.
" We'll be back mommy." Delaney said giving her a hug. "Bye Mr. D."
"Not bye. I'm not going anywhere. I'll be right here when you come back." Delaney smiled and closed the door behind her. Dessiah picked up the cake off the table and went to the kitchen. She threw the knife in the sink and sighed heavily. Turning around to face Detrick who was way to comfortable but office he was upset.
"Detrick what are we doing?" She asked with her hands rested on the counter. They were each on either sides of the room. "I mean seriously, One minute we get along and another your disrespectful, arrogant, possessive, inconsiderate, egotistical, Jackass. Then other moments you're so kind and friendly." He looked up in her direction.
"You say all that to then say I'm kind and friendly. RealLy!?"
"Detrick!"
"Fine I want you." He said nonchalantly and Dessiah's eyes widened not expecting him to admit what she suspected.
*PLAY SONG*repeat if necessary.
"Wait what? Why?"
"Because."
"Because of what?" She pressed. He sighed heavily.
"Because from the day you walked in my office I knew there was something about you that made me care even though I didn't want to show it. When I found out you were and remembered when we first met everything made sense. Then I couldn't sleep without wondering if you and Delaney were okay. If you were safe. Comfortable....happy. I want to be there for the both of you anytime you need an even when you don't think you need me I still want to be there, in your corner." Dessiah could barely breathe. Never had a man said something like that to her. But then a thought came to her, why did he feel this way once he knew who she was? Did he just see her a charity case?
"Thanks but no thanks." She said coldly walked across the room.
"What?" Detrick hoped he didn't hear her right.
"You heard me. No thanks."
"I just told you all of that and you say no thanks!"
"Detrick you only see me as a charity case. Something for you to feel good for doing. I'm not your charity and neither is Delaney. I appreciate what you did for us back then but we are fine now and don't need you or anybody to take care of us. Matter of fact..." Dessiah grabbed her purse and pulled out her check book and wrote it for $3,000.00. "Here." She handed the check to him and he looked at it.
"What is this?"
"Its what you gave me two years ago. It's actually more than you gave us but keep it as interest." She went to pick up his jacket and headed to the door to let him out. Detrick stood shocked and completely offended. "I think you should go."
"You are the coldest fucking person I have ever met!"
"Excuse me?"
"You heard what I said! You think you know everything. Well do you know that Delaney crys all the time because she wants you to have someone love you."
"What? No she doesn't."
"Yes she does! She always talks about how she just wants someone to come in your life and make you happy so you all could be a family."
"Well you've proven my point then, we're just charity!" She folded her arms defiant to see his point.
"Oh my God! HOW CAN SOMEONE SO SMART IN HER CAREER BE SO DAMN DUMB?" He yelled.
"I'M NOT DUMB! DON'T CALL ME DUMB." She yelled.
"YES YOU ARE AND YOU WANNA LIST ALL THAT'S WRONG WITH ME WELL NEWFLASH: YOUR SHIT DOESN'T SMELL LIKE ROSES EITHER! YOUR PIG-HEADED. STUBBORN. RUDE. GUARDED. DAMAGED. AND TOO DAMN INDEPENDENT TO REALISE THAT I'M RIGHT HERE TRYING TO GIVE MYSELF TO YOU BUT YOU THINK YOU DON'T NEED NOBODY. WHICH PROVES MY POINT THAT YOUR DAMAGED AND YOUR ALSO SELFISH!"
"FUCK YOU DETRICK I AM NOT SELFISH! I AM THE MOST GIVING SINCERE PERSON YOU'LL EVER KNOW!"
"OH MY GOD! SHUT UPPPP!" He screamed running his hands down his face.
"DON'T TELL ME TO SHUT UP. YOU SHUT THE HELL UP!" Detrick stalked towards her. "NIGGA YOU DON'T KNOW ME!" She said as he stalked towards her grabbing her face her crashed into her lips. Her body stiffened between him and the wall until she let his kiss run through her like needed electricity in a dark home. Detrick broke off the kiss not moving from in her face. Their chests heaved up and down as he whispered staring intently in her eyes.
"I want you and you want me just as bad."
"No I don't." She moved her face to look away from him but he held her face in place to see him. Dessiah closed her eyes since he wouldn't allow her to look away.
"Dessiah, stop. Playing. This game. Admit it."
"No." She tried to push him away but her attempts were unsuccessful and he kissed her again. She slapped him and he kissed her again.
"Say it! I'm not letting you go until you admit how you feel."
"I don't feel anything Detrick now move."
"Bullshit. I know you can feel what I'm feeling."
"What are you talking about? Other than you wanting to take care of me?"
"No. The fact that I can feel when you walk into a room before I even see you. Or when I think about you then you come around. How I can't catch my breath when you smile because my heart races so fast. When I'm in a bad mood I think of you to stop from going off. Dessiah the thought of you gets me through the hour, seeing you gets me through the day. Just admit it De I know you feel it just say it. I need to hear you say it." Dessiah turned her face sideways as her eyes welled.
"Detrick I cant." She whispered in a cracked voice.
"Why? Tell me why?" She turned to look him in the eyes.
"Because nothing is forever. It wont last between us Detrick. You'll get tired of us or me and leave. Everyone leaves."
"Baby, I'm right here and I'm not going anywhere. I want to be here for you and Delaney and I never want you to doubt why I'm here. You've been through so much and so have I, but I can promise I will never treat you like he did. I'll never toss you out my life. We've both been hurt bad but I want to take the chance. We both deserve to take the chance on each other."
"Detrick-.."
"Dessiah, let me love the hurt away baby." He whispered and Dessiah could no longer hold back the tears that fell from her eyes. She kissed Detrick with all that she had inside. Taking in his taste and moans against her face. Although his lips were against hers, he passionately aiming for her heart to kiss her broken wounds. All the hurt, abandonment, sadness, loneliness, and loss she ever felt he wanted to heal. For things she told and those she left untold, but he would soon learn. with every kiss pieces were slowly being restored. Unbeknownst to her, she changed the beat of his heart, giving him a new rhythm, a new pace; a new love.
"Okay I need to hear you say it."
"Yes Detrick I feel it too. Everything you said I feel. I feel so safe with you and that scares me but I'll take the chance with you." She wrapped her arms around his neck.
"Say it. Will you be mine Dessiah?"
"Yes, Detrick. I'm already yours." She smiled brightly and he returned with a smile that reached his eyes. They smiled and kissed again. Neither of them wanting to stop. With reservations, fear,doubts, and risks they came together to take the leap. Dessiah and Detrick made the choice to take a chance on love.
