Page 16 of Loving a Libra
“You heard me. We might as well find something we both like because this story will end with us together.”
“I would ask how you could be so sure, but . . .”
“You know I’m right. Baby, I never thought being with you was in the cards. At no point did I ever plan to cross the line. Now that it’s happened, there’s no turning back for me. I’m all in. Minus sex, we’ve been dating for two years. I’d propose to your pretty ass right now if I knew you’d accept.”
It was dark, but I could tell my words made her blush.
“You know, over the past few days, I’ve been thinking about this situation. For something to be so wrong, it feels so right. I should feel guilty, but I don’t, and I know a lot of that has to do with Maurice’s actions. I want to lean into this, . . . into us, but I want it to be for the right reasons, not for revenge.”
“Let me be clear, . . . you deserve revenge.”
“I agree, but?—”
“Hold on. Two things can be true at the same time. You can want revengeandhave genuine feelings for me.”
“You know what? You’re right. The two are conflicting, so mentally, I separated them.”
“That’s understandable. I know what this is for me, and it ain’t got shit to do with Maurice, but I understand you might need some time to process your feelings. I’m willing to give you that if you don’t mind doing it while I invade your space, burying my face and dick in your pussy as often as you’ll allow.”
She laughed, but I couldn’t have been more serious.
“You can bury you face and dick in my pussy as often as you want.”
“That’s good to know, and I plan to take full advantage of your kindness. So, what kind of house are we looking for?”
“I want a house with at least three bedrooms, a nice-sized backyard, two or three bathrooms, and a basement.”
“In Chicago?”
She shook her head as she finished eating the food in her mouth. “No. I asked the realtor to look in Oak Lawn and Evergreen Park.”
I nodded. “Those are good neighborhoods and still close to the city.”
“That’s why I chose them. Living downtown is cool, but it’s overwhelming.”
“I agree, especially if your goal is to have a family. Speaking of, did you get a Plan B?”
She sighed. “No.”
“Why not?”
“I don’t know.”
“I think you do know.”
We sat in silence for a few minutes, and I didn’t press her to respond. When she did, her answer was surprising.
“Your words were on repeat in my mind.”
“What words?”
“We want the same things out of life. It wouldn’t make sense not to have a baby we both want.”
“You’re right, and we can dive a little deeper. It wouldn’t make sense not to have a baby created by two people in love.”
“Yeah, that too. So, I didn’t get the Plan B, but maybe we should use protection until?—”
“Don’t waste your breath. I’ve felt your raw pussy wrapped around my dick. Ain’t no way on God’s green Earth I’ll agree to put something between us. I’ll do my best to pull—you know what? I’m not gon’ even tell that lie. I ain’t pulling out either.”
