MICHEAL
After I step out of the room, I head downstairs and out the door. Standing in the driveway, with his back to the house is a man wearing a black leather jacket and jeans, he has one of his hands shielding his eyes, while he stares into the beyond. He is tall but not as tall as I am, and leaner, my body stiffens as I stop a few feet from him. He relaxes his shoulders, drops his hand to his side and turns to face me, his eyes are bright red, he lets his bag fall to the ground and walks towards me slowly with outstretched hands.
"Come on man, won't you give a brother a hug, I've fucking missed you"
I push him off me, my displeasure becoming more evident on my face.
His smile grows wider, and he suddenly begins laughing
"I can tell you missed me too, I was scared time apart will kill our love"
'Mmmmm' I let out an internal sigh
" What the fuck Jas, what are you doing here," I ask him, as much as I'm trying to seem annoyed, I know the frown on my face is beginning to relax, I just can't stay mad at him and he knows that even more than I do, ' fuck why does that sound gay? '
" I'm happy to see you too"
He replies, stepping around me towards the house"
In less than a second, I am in front of him, blocking his way,
" I asked you to stay away Jas"
"And I did" Jason replies
" For four days? " I ask
" That's more than enough time for you to tell her, I thought that's what you wanted? "
I look away from Jason and he takes a step back
" You haven't told her, have you?"
He asks studying me, I sigh and sit on the steps leading to the house, Jason curses and joins me on the steps,
"why?" He asks
" The same reason you didn't tell me" I reply
He nods his head and curses out again,
" You remember how mad at me you were when you finally found out? She's gonna find out Mike, you know that"
" Fuck Jas, I can't tell her, not now, she has gone through enough already, I can't lose her again"
He lifts his hand and taps me on the shoulder
"Micheal?" I hear bells call, a normal person should not have heard her from the distance but I hear her loud enough as if she were out here with me, I know Jason heard her too
"Your woman calls," Jason says with a smirk
" Micheal this is not funny open the door"
I turn and look at Jason, something is wrong
I see the question in Jason's eyes but I ignore him and dash inside with super speed. In the next second I am upstairs, I reach for the door and open it, it opens without difficulty, I see bells standing in front of me looking pale, I rush forward and hold her hands.
" Bells, what's wrong, what happened"?
She looks at me and shakes her head as if trying to clear her thoughts
" nothing" she says,
" it's nothing, I just..., uhh, clothes, yes, the clothes"
I look at her and look around the room quickly, so quickly she wouldn't notice me looking away from her, I feel nothing different
" I heard you call" I insist, I know something is off, why won't she tell me what Happened,
" Yes, I did" she replies quickly this time,
" I thought I heard something but it was nothing, I'm freezing, I need clothes"
" Did you check the closet? " I ask her
" Huh?"
I lead her towards the wall closet and pull it open, there are a few female wears in it, I had bought them for her before the incident, the one that changed everything.
" These are so pretty" she exclaims with wide eyes
" Whose are they"
" Yours" I reply
" When did you get them? You've been in here with me"
I smile at her, she was always so inquisitive and curious
" Just put it on," I say, handing her a black off the shoulder mini gown
" I'll be just outside the door" I say as I walk out,giving her privacy to dress.
