’ m successful and I ’ m fucking the hell out of her ex , daily . Really, I don ’ t give a flea fuck if she doesn ’ t like me . “ Who the fuck remains in love with someone from the time they're twelve years old ; a nd then decides to marry someone else ? What kind of shit is that? ” I asked myself as I turned my promise ring back to the front of my hand.
“ Are you okay? ” Logic asked as he noticed me playing with my ring.
“ So what do we say about the ring? ” I asked realizing how silly I'd sound if I said it was a promise ring.
“ What do you want to say? ”
“ I don't want to say anything, but there's not a woman on the planet that's not going to notice this ring. Your friends are bound to ask, especially Queen. ”
Logic climbed beneath the covers with me dressed only in boxer briefs. “ Are you moving with me to Vegas? ”
“ Yes. I want to. ”
“ It's a yes or no question. That's all I need to hear, yes or no. ”
“ Yes. ”
“ Then tell them that I gave it to you for Christmas and let them think whatever the fuck they want to think. I'm a grown ass man and you're a grown ass woman. And quite frankly, friends or not, what I give my girl is none of their damn business. Okay? ”
“ Queen's going to be jealous and upset . ” I warned.
“ Queen's married and pregnant. I don't give a damn how she feels. ” Logic declared.
“ Logic please tell me that you're not doing all of this to get back at her for hurting you. ”
“ I'm doing this because you are the only thing that I've found since she left me that makes the pain go away. I'm not doing anything to get back at Queen. I'm trying to do everything that I can to get over her. Queen ’ s simply my friend now. There ’ s nothing else going on between us. I don ’ t want to get back at her for leaving me and she doesn ’ t want to get back at me. She ’ s pregnant by a man that she loves and a man that loves her. We ’ re both okay with how things turned out. She ’ s happy and I ’ m happy for her. Now, I ’ m just trying to find a piece of happiness of my own. Okay? Does that make sense? ”
“ Yeah , I guess when you put it that way it does. So when do we leave for Vegas? ”
“ I guess there's no rush now. We can get your affairs situated here and then fly out next week if you want. We have plenty of time before my spring training regimen begins. Speaking of plenty of time... Somebody owes me something. ” He grinned.
“ Oh yeah and who's that? ” I coyly asked as I watched him peel his black boxer briefs over his thick chocolate thighs. My mouth watered at the thought of what was about to be unleashed.
“ I don't know, but she looked a lot like you. Well, you convulsing in ecstasy. ” He teased as he imitated me climaxing .
“ Yeah I vaguely remember that. You're right it was me and I do owe you something. ” I murmured as I found his long, chocolate éclair and stuffed it whole in my mouth.
“ Oh this is going to be good. ” He moaned as he watched me get medieval on his under a ppreciated , totally neglected one eyed monster.
Determined to make him completely forget, Nakeisha and Queen I showed Logic that I knew exactly how to appreciate a man of his worth , w hich I had so far estimated to be priceless.
Chapter 13
Logic had given me a brief biography of the lives of his friends during the limo ride from DC. Apparently, the home we were visiting belonged to Dorian and Jade Swann. Dorian was an attorney. In fact he was Logic's personal attorney. His wife Jade who just happens to be Queen's best friend is an extraordinarily gifted linguist who is an interpreter at the UN. Then we have Dr. Mye Love aka Queen who is an Internal Medicine doctor and her husband Dr. Christian Love who is a Best Selling Author and Gynecologist. And finally but not least by no stretch of the imagination we have Teddy Bear Davine, Wide Receiver for the Los Angeles Archangels. Rich, handsome, and blessed with
