Looking for Something

Chapter 11

"In all the world, there is no heart for me like yours. In all the world, there is no love for you like mine."

~Maya Angelou

"A soulmate is someone who has locks that fit our keys, and keys to fit our locks. When we feel safe enough to open the locks, our truest selves step out and we can be completely and honestly who we are; we can be loved for who we are and not for who we're pretending to be. Each unveils the best part of the other. No matter what else goes wrong around us, with that one person we're safe in our own paradise."

~Richard Bach

"Anyone can be passionate, but it takes real lovers to be silly."

~Rose Franken

"Ugh, I have a headache." I walk into me and Syd's room, close the door, and lay across the bed. I have been getting these a lot lately, but this is the first one I have gotten since we got to Japan. It is so dope here, and Andie's house is sick. It is kind of up on a hill, and isolated from other homes.

"Aw, my poor baby. Come here." I look up at her and she has her arms outstretched towards me. I scoot closer to her and lay my head down on her chest. Her lips lightly touch my forehead and her hand starts to mess with my hair.

"You know what you should do?"

"What?"

"Sing to me." I smile, even though she cannot see me.

"I should have known you were going to say that. Hold on, lemme think of something." There's a slight pause, but then the voice that I love breaks through.

"So many people never find the one

That's why I really wanna tell you somethin'

I really think this is it for me

I really think you're the one I need

Cause baby I done had 'em all

I don't want nobody but you

Yeh, Oh darlin'

Baby let me break it down

See, we livin' in a lonely world

Aint you tired of the runnin' 'round?

Don't you wanna be my only guy?

Baby can I be the one to call

When you're tired of the lies

And the truth is all you wanna hear

Only if you swear

Baby, here I am

I'm your girl

I came with everything you needed

You and me undefeated,

Till the end of time

One mind, one heart, one love

All you gotta do is,

Take my hand

We will stand

This was made to last forever,

So lets say it together for the rest of time

One mind, one heart, one love

Ohh, Listen baby

I'll give you all I'm worth

From my head down to my shoes

And boy if we gone work,

Then I need the same from you

I know that so many other girls cheat

But so many girls ain't me

Give me my pick of any dime

And I'll pick you boy every time

I just wanna break it down

See, we livin' in a lonely world

Aint you tired of the runnin' 'round?

Don't you wanna be my only guy?

Baby can I be the one to call

When you're tired of the lies

And the truth is all you wanna hear

If you swear

Baby, here I am

I'm your girl

I came with everything you needed

You and me undefeated,

Till the end of time

One mind, one heart, one love

All you gotta do is,

Take my hand

We will stand

This was made to last forever,

So lets say it together for the rest of time

One mind, one heart, one love."

I look up at her and I see her watching me. When I reach up and kiss her, she kisses back harder. The innocence is there one minute and gone the next as our kissing turns sloppy. I change her position to where she is laying on top of me.

I rub my hands all over her. I feel her lift my shirt up, and we part only for a minute to let me take it off. Right after it is gone, I pull her back towards me. I shove my hands into her shorts and I start to play with her ass. I roll her over, making her be on the bottom now, and I pull her shorts off along with her panties.

Time to get this show on the road. I wait any longer, and I might explode.

I pull my basketball shorts down and I enter. I feel her back arch, then it soon relaxes. I lay over her and I feel her scratching at my back as she moans softly. Goddamn. First, I start off slow, and take my time with her...then I build up speed.

Round 1.

Round 2.

Round 3, and I am out.

This girl is something else. The hardest part was trying to keep quiet. It was so hard, the way she was teasing me and s**t. I lay next to her, holding her, and trying to steady my breathing again. I look down at her, when I feel her drawing swirls on my chest.

"Aye," I nudge her and she looks up at me. "I love you." She smiles at me.

"I love you too." I kiss her again, and I stop myself, because I will start up round 4 in a heartbeat. After a little while she gets up and slides on some shorts and a tank top. She walks to the bathroom and I smirk.

"Aw, daddy got you walking a little sideways babe." She flips me off. "But you just did." I see something fly my way and I dodge it. I can't stop laughing now. I love messing with her. When she comes back out, she lays on top of me and looks at me smirking. "What?"

"You didn't notice, did you?"

"Notice what?"

"My new tats."

"Tats? As in more than one?" She smiles at me and nods her head.

"Mhm, wanna see?"

"Hell yea."

"Well, I got this ankle one. It's really simple." She gets up off of me and I sit up as she shows me her ankle. She has a pattern of waves wrapped around it. "Then I got a small sun-shaped one around my belly button." She lifts her tee up a little bit so that I can see it. With her belly ring shining in the middle, it looks sexy as hell. I smirk at it. "Last one, is right here." On her thigh, is a picture of a bleeding star, with "Syd" written in cursive in what I guess is Japanese.

"So you sexy?" She smiles at me and shrugs.

"I don't know, you tell me." I pull her closer to me and I kiss her again. Then again.

"You are always sexy." How did I miss all of them though? Guess when you making love to your love everything else disappears. "How did you let them know what you wanted?"

"Well, Andie has really improved in speaking Japanese, and I pointed." She grins at me.

"Mane, why are you so goofy?" I pull her onto my lap. She just shrugs as she leans back on my chest. I feel her wiggle her hips, which makes me groan.

"Mhm, momma still got you on hard."

"Man, shut up! Nobody asked you."

"I know, your body is telling me!" I start tickling her and she starts spazzing out.

"Okay, okay Mickie STTOOOPPP!" She pushes my hands away and I just laugh. "You are not funny!"

"Why are you smiling then?" I poke her lip.

"I'm not smiling, you are just hallucinating." She lays her head back on my shoulder, causing her hair to tickle my chest. She rolls onto her side and starts to hug me. "You are so warm."

"Baby, your hands are ice cold." I pull the covers over her and lay down with her. I cannot stop the yawn that escapes. Right when I close my eyes, my phone buzzes in my pocket. I move slowly to get it, because I think she is falling asleep.

I realize I have a text from an unknown number and I roll my eyes. I already know who this is.

"Dee, just talk to me. I am sure that after a week of me, your precious Sydney will become your past.

Pllleeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaasssssssssssseeeeeeeeeee...!"

I throw my phone behind me onto the floor. Chantelle's ass has been texting me messages like that since we got out of school. Desperate ass need to learn how to take a hint.

~~Sydney~~

"Do they have any clubs out here?" Lauren asks this, walking into Andie's kitchen. It is around eight at night over here and I am sitting here with Andie watching Darnell cook.

"Girl yea, I know the perfect one to go to." Andie hops off her chair and disappears down the hall. Lauren comes and sits down on my other side. Andie re-enters the kitchen and lays down some brochure in front of us. "I have always wanted to check out Club Air. I heard it is real hype and even though we might not know any of the songs, we will not have a problem finding the beat."

"Club tonight then?" I look at them both.

"Definitely!" They both answer me at the same time.

"Yes, finally a reason to get my twerk ooonnn!" I hop up out of my seat and start twerking.

"Aaaayyyyeeee!" Lauren stands beside me in the opening of the kitchen and starts twerking with me. Andie just shakes her head at us and laughs. Lauren gets up against the wall and I start twerking on her. I can feel her hair beating my back.

"What's got you guys so happy?" I hear Kyle's voice and I look up to see Mickie and him watching us smiling.

"We are going to the cluuubbb! Wanna go?"

"Yea, I'm down."

"Me too. When are we leaving?"

"Well, it is about eight fifteen now, so....in another two hours maybe? Nells, are you almost done?" Andie walks over by Darnell and looks at what he is doing.

"I have actually been done. I have just been over here eating the rest of this meat."

"What'd you make?"

"Quesadillas. j**s make some good chicken."

"Mhm, stop being fat and lets go change." She eats the piece of chicken out of his hand that he was going to eat and drags him out of the kitchen. I walk to our room with Mickie following me.

"What are you going to wear?" Mickie asks me this as he closes the door.

"You will see." He walks into the bathroom and closes the door. I hear him start to run the water. While he is taking a shower I pick out the outfit I want to wear. Yes...sexy! When he comes back out water is glistening off his body, and he has nothing but a towel wrapped around him. That's even sexier. I walk by him biting my lip.

"You like what you see?"

"Maaaybe." I close the door after seeing the smirk on his face. I run my shower water, get undressed, and hop in. Maybe I should wash my hair so it will shine a little bit. Then, once it dries I can just curl it at the ends. I shower, and I dry off. Once I finally finish blow drying my hair, I finish getting dressed. I decided to wear my black, fitted strapless dress. I think some silver accessories will do with my red heels. I curl the ends of my hair, apply eyeliner to my eyes, and put on some thick red lipstick.

Yea, this will do. I walk out of the bathroom.

"Damn shawty, let me holla' at you for a minute." Mickie says this from the bed.

"I don't think my man would like that."

"What he doesn't know won't hurt him." He gets up out of the chair and cuts the TV off. Looking good, like always. "Just one kiss." He taps his cheek, and I press my lips against it. When I pull back there is a red lipstick stain stuck there. I smile at it, then I walk towards the door and slide my heels on. Damn,  I am still like a whole foot shorter than him.

We go out and meet the others.

"My chick bad, my chick hood. My chick do stuff that ya' chick wish she could..." Mickie starts saying this as we exit the hallway and I get my stroll on.

"Daaammnnn, my best friend bad as hell!" Andie comes up and spins me around.

"I learned from you Boo!"

"So, is everyone ready to go?" Andie looks us all up and down. "AYE, let's go." We all follow behind her and Darnell. Since Mickie is last, he stops to close the door, and I stop at the end of the stairs to wait for him. My phone rings in my clutch and I pull it out to see that I have a text.

It is from an unknown number and reads:

"I don't know what you are doing now, but I want to know. Bet whatever you are doing, you look sexy while doing it. Come back to me Syd. Chicago is boring without you here to see. You brightened my days, and calmed my nights. Some nights I imagine you resting in my arms and one day it will be real. Stay dreamy...

Love, your Secret Admirer <3

These texts get creepier and creepier every time.

"What's wrong?" I feel Mickie come up behind me and I continue walking to the car.

"Nothing." I drop my phone back into my clutch. I have not told him that I still get texts from whoever this guy is. I don't want him worrying and getting all fired up about some harmless, shy guy. If things get too out of hand though, I will tell him.
