At this point KK was crying, and I had said fuck it about the tears that were falling from my eyes.
“I’m so sorry, Darius.”
“I shouldn’t have blocked you out of my life like that. Now, I know better, and I would never ever do no weak ass shit like that again.”
“Listen, I get it. I had no idea all of that happened, but I understand now. I still feel horrible that you took the chance for me to have your back away, but I forgive you.”
We embraced in a tight hug, and when KK nestled her face on the side of my neck, I couldn’t help but bury my face in hair and inhale her sweet scent. I rubbed her back as I kissed the top of her head and when she looked up into my eyes, our lips naturally locked like magnets as we began to kiss. The deeper the kiss the more sexual tension started to rise.
KK was wearing a spaghetti string tank top with a pair of very short biking shorts. As our tongues danced, I slipped one of my hands under her shirt and began to caress one of her nipples.
“Ssssss,” KK hissed, heightening the sexual tension.
When she placed her hand on my dick, it instantly bricked up as KK softly moaned into my mouth. We started to make out as I raised her shirt exposing her medium sized breasts. Both of her nipples hardened, looking like two Hershey Kisses. Taking one into my mouth I began to gently suck on her breasts and just like back in the day, it started to drive KK crazy.
“I love you, KK.”
“I love you too, Darius, but I can’t go there.” She raised up and backed away from me. “I’ve changed… you’ve changed. It’s not like when we were kids.”
“I want you so bad, but I don’t want you to do anything you don’t want to.”
“I want you too but I’m not at a place where I’m ready to open myself up to you or anyone else right now. I hope you respect how I feel.”
“I do. Just know, I didn’t come here to fuck. You’re not ready, I respect that.”
“Ion think either one of us is ready, to be honest. Just a few days ago Dymond was looking like she wanted to snatch my face off at the lounge over you. The last thing I want is to give myself to you only for you to leave again or to have to share you with everyone else. I’ve tried the fucking without any strings attached shit…been there done that and it no longer works for me. I have feelings, and I’m tired of them getting hurt. Can you please leave?”
I looked into her eyes as my heart sank. “I’m sorry. No problem, I’ll leave.”
As I got up from the couch and headed to the door, all I could do was accept the fact that I had lost not only my best friend, but my one true love, and I couldn’t blame anyone but myself.
CLAUDIA
The Next Day
“You coo?” Ermias asked, breaking me from my thoughts. “If you busy, just call me back.”
“No, you’re good,” I replied as I snapped the leash on the dog that I just finished grooming. “Just trying to get Bruno together so his parents can pick him up.”
Truth was, I hadn’t talked to Kimmie and that was unusual especially since I knew that Darius was asking about how he could get in contact with her. I wondered if he was able to reach her and if so, how did that work for Kimmie mainly.
“It’s gon’ be a late night for me but I still want to see yo fine ass later.”
“I’ll probably just meet up with you at your place. Once Bruno leaves, I gotta clean up then run some errands. Have you talked to Darius? Do you know if he caught up with Kimmie?”
“Nah, we haven’t talked, but I’m sure he has. When that nigga on a mission he is known to complete it.”
Before I could say anything else, my other line started ringing and when I looked at my phone, I saw that it was Kimmie calling me.
“Babe, let me call you back. This Kimmie now. She probably ‘bout to chew my ass out cause I told Darius she stays in the building.”
“Don’t be too hard on yourself. You didn’t tell him shit for real. It ain’t hard to get an address on someone if you really need it. Go handle yo business. I’ll holla later.”
After telling Ermias I’ll see him later, I answered before Kimmie hung up.
“Girl, your ears must be burning cause I was just thinking about you.”
“Hey, boo. I been going through it. You won’t believe who popped up at my place last night.”
