She's Beautiful

I woke up with a strangle feeling in the pit of my stomach. I didn't know what it was but it was like someone was trying to tell me something. I chuckled at the thought of being pregnant again. I know that's not really anything to joke about but it just made me giggle a little. But this was different. There is something different about today and I can't put my finger on it. I stirred in my bed and turned around to see a naked body lying next to me. That's what's different. I slept with my best friend. I don't know rather to laugh or groan because I don't know if this will affect anything. I hope it doesn't because Gina is the best person I have ever met, plus the s*x was great. I was brought out of thought by the bed moving. Gina turned her head to where she was facing me. Her black hair covered her face making me giggle. "How the hell are you laughing this early?" She groaned. I rolled my eyes as I moved some of the hair out of her face. "Oh god. Are you catching feelings?" She asked. My eyes went wide as I removed my hand and sat up a little. "f**k no." She chuckled as she slowly sat up while stretching. "Good. Because I don't need to handle all of that." I chuckled as I watched her get up. I always loved how confident she is with herself. Like literally, she is butt naked right now walking around. "So we're good?" I asked. She looked over at me and then smiled. She came over to me and straddled my waist. "Yes we are good." I smiled as she leaned downed and kissed me. My hands went into her hair as I started bringing her closer to me. She slid her tongue in my mouth making me moan. She slightly pulled back and sighed. "As much as I would love to stay and have a few rounds, I have to go into work." The mention of her job brought back the memories of the dinner party and also my past. I didn't say anything for a while because I was still in shock that Layla has been Ginas boss the entire time. Actually scratch that. Layla is a f*****g billionaire! And I didn't even know. I mean of coarsely I wouldn't be with her for her money but it honestly does explain how she had a fancy car and her apartment was really nice. I felt a light kiss on my lips making me me come out of my daze. "I'll be back as soon as I can, okay?" I slightly nodded my head as I kissed her again. This time she smiled as she pulled back. She then got off of me and started putting on her clothes. My eyes never once left her body causing her to laugh every once in a while. After another hour went by I decided to actually get up. I put on some clothes and went downstairs to make some breakfast. For some reason Marie likes to sleep in until like ten in the morning on weekends which I honestly don’t have a problem with because that gives me time to myself. Plus I used to do the exact same thing. I walked into the kitchen and started up some pancakes and eggs. I didn’t want to go all out because I’m not really that hungry and Marie isn’t a morning person. Even though she down there wakes up at noon, but whatever. As the pancakes started to cook I decided to sit back and think. Layla. I mean seriously. I don’t know how the hell I didn’t know anything about her. I never noticed the fancy clothes she wore because I never really focused on anyone’s appearance. I mean yeah, every once in a while I would check her out but nothing serious. She drove a really nice care which always conflicted me because she worked at a coffee shop. I remember the time she went to New York for a few days. I guess it was because she had to deal with the company. At this point I started to get frustrated. She lied to me for months and never thought to tell me. Her being rich of coarsely would of never changed the way I felt about her. I kills me how she asked me to be her girlfriend but never thought to tell me. Well, then again we were official for like a half a day. I jumped as I heard Marie call me. I looked over at her to see her eyes wide and pointing at the stove. I looked over and saw a small fire starting. I jumped up off the chair and put the fire out. Thankfully the smoke alarms didn’t go off, but we did have three burnt pancakes. I sighed as I looked at Marie. “Want to go out for breakfast?” I asked. She quickly nodded her head making me chuckle as I told her to go change. I cleaned up the mess that I made and put everything in the dishwasher. Honestly I’m about five seconds away from giving up on cooking. I have down there burnt everything I’ve cooked. I groaned as I went to grab my wallet, purse and shoes. Marie came running down the stairs with her stuffed turtle that I gave to her a few years ago. She takes that thing everywhere and it always makes me smile seeing how far we’ve come from that time. I grabbed her hand as we left the house. About twenty minuets we pulled up to the Grind. When we first moved to London this was the first place that I went to. I loved their food and the atmosphere in here is so calming and welcoming. I walked into the building with Marie by my side. We sat down at a booth and made small talk. Honestly Marie is one of my best friends. Shes smart, funny, and will always listen to you without interrupting. That is if you are in your feelings. If your not, she will speak her mind every five seconds. The waiter came over and gave us some water and took our orders. I got some hash browns and pancakes and Mare got pancakes with strawberry sauce and bacon. After sometime our food came back and we dug in. I wasn’t hungry before but I am now. “How’s school going?” I asked. Marie shrugged her shoulders. “Fine. I love it though.” I squinted my eyes at her because I don’t think I have ever heard that sentence leave a humans mouth. I shrugged my shoulders and just nodded. I got done before her so I just leaned back and stared at the decorations that were all over the place. The owner actually used to be a singer but retired. But he still has a lot of music stuff hanging around everywhere which always made me smile. The door chimed behind me but I didn’t pay attention to it. Marie looked behind me for a while which made me question who was behind me. I slowly sat up as I looked behind me and saw Gina and Layla. I quickly turned back around and slouched down in the booth. I groaned because I wish now that I ate the burnt pancake. Marie tried to get up but I made her sit down because I didn’t want them to notice us. But that didn’t work because Gina came over to us. “Hey gorgeous.” She said. I looked at her and lightly smiled. She then looked at me confused until she looked over at her boss and realization hit her. I could feel Laylas eyes on me but I didn’t dare look at her. I cleared my throat as I stood up and told Gina to watch Marie real quick as I went to the bathroom. I walked past all the people and went into the bathroom and closed the door. It was a public bathroom so I couldn't lock it. I put my hands on the sink to hold me up as I bent down and let a little tear roll down my eye. My life was good, it was great. I have Everything I could ask for. A beautiful smart daughter, and friend that had my back, and enough money to keep us stable for the rest of our lives. I keep trying to tell myself that its just Layla. The woman who was everything to me. The woman who cared for me and put everything aside just for me. I just couldn't separate all that from Skylar. But then again it wasn't just Skylar. Melanie might of have seemed like the calm and nice one in their relationship, but she could be just like Skylar if she tried. I remember when I was back there whenever I tried to leave. Both of them made sure that I had absolute security on me but I found away out. Out of that town and out of that life. I knew they both would start looking for me so I made sure I moved out of the country. I wanted to change my name but I decided against it. The door to the bathroom opened causing me to look up. Layla stood there with shock still written all over her face. I stared at her through the reflection of the mirror as she came closer to me. "I like your hair." She said. I chuckled a little as I looked down. Considering Layla was always the type of person to joke around, that would be the first thing she says to me. "Thank you. I was thinking about dying the ends red." She slowly nodded her head. "You always said that but never did it." We both laughed a little then went quite. I turned around to see her still in a suit that, if I may add, she looked amazing in. "So what are you doing here?" She ran her hands through her black hair and sighed. "I came here to talk with one of my workers." I nodded my head. "Georgina?" She nodded her head. "After I saw you the other day.. I umm-" "You started talking to Gina because you wanted to know about me." Layla bit her lip as she looked down. "It doesn't bother me. I would do the same thing if it was the other way around." She nodded her head as she looked at me. I could tell there were so many other things she wanted to say or ask but she was holding herself back. And I thank her for that because I do not have the will power right now to discuss anything. I looked at her one more time as I made my way out the stall. "Marie has definitely gotten more beautiful by the way." She couldn't see me because I was facing away from her but I had a huge smile on my face. I turned around to look at her. "Thank you." She slowly nodded her head as I turned back around and left the bathroom. I sighed loudly as I walked back over to Gina and Marie. "Hey I'm so sorry." Gina started as she stood up. "I didn't know you both-" I put my hand up in the air and shook my head. "Its fine. It was a accident." Gina smiled a bit as she hugged me. "Well I'm still sorry. I can make it up if you want." She said as she smirked. I rolled my eyes and caught Layla staring at us. I looked back at Gina and grinned. "As much as I would love that. You can pay me back by watching Marie tonight. I'm going out." She scoffed and rolled her eyes. "b***h no. I will find you a babysitter, but if your going out so am I." I chuckled as I hugged her again and told her to find one by six tonight. She agreed and we said our goodbyes. Marie finished up her last bite and we decided to go to the park and get some of the food we just ate out of us. *******
