An ex barges in
1254 Words
Anthony’s POV:
We followed the girl into the elevator and got off in a second. She walked down the hallway and my cousin looked clearly irritated when we stopped.
“Okay this isn’t your door, stop playing around and come on.”
She rolled her eyes and knocked.
A voice answered the knock saying it was open and we walked in.
The apartment was nicely decorated and furnished. Black leather couches and a lazy boy couch sat in the living room along with a huge wall tv. The carpet was a pretty pink fur rug and painting hung on the walls. But what captivated me wasn’t the look of the apartment but the smell. Whoever was cooking in here seriously could win my heart any day.
We walked into the kitchen and there she was. The beauty from the club. I stopped and stared looking at her bend down to get napkins from a counter below the sink. She had on some red lacy panties that barely fit because her ass was so fat. I saw my cousin stare as well before hitting him and giving him a look to stop.
“Well this isn’t what I thought you’d be wearing when I came up” the girl said as her friend turned around and squeaked when she saw us standing there.
Tara’s POV:
I turn around to find my best friend standing in the doorway with two tall men behind her. I let out a startled squeak before going off on her.
“b***h what the hell are you doing bringing two random people in here without a warning?! I look a hot mess!!”
I gave her a dirty look but she pouted.
“I brought them because you make the best hot chocolate ever. Can you make us some please?”
The nerve of this girl. I was annoyed but sighed and said okay. I went to go out some pants on until I saw him. The same guy from the club. We looked at each other and he started to smile, making me blush and look down. He gently placed his hand under my chin and made me look up at him. He smiled again before saying “well hello again pretty lady”.
“Hi”
We smiled like idiots until the other two coughed and broke us out of whatever trance we were in.
“Umm how do you know my best friend?” I asked
“She knows my cousin”
“His cousin is the guy who I said is funny and he lives down the hall from me” Crystal chimes in
“Oh so you’ve been talking about me huh?”
“Shut up” she says smiling and looking away
“Yeah I just moved in with him earlier today so it looks like we’re neighbors in a sense” he says and I get butterflies in my stomach. The same guy who I thought about in the shower now lived in the same building. This must be a dream I thought to myself.
We end up drinking the hot chocolate and talking for over an hour until we hear a loud banging at the door.
“Open the f*cking door you dumb b***h!! How dare you change the locks, when I come in we need to talk!”
Me and Crystal look towards the door and start to shake, not knowing what to do. I knew exactly who that was and if I let him in then he’d beat me again and I couldn’t take that. I just started to cry as the pounding got louder and louder until it stopped when I hear the door unlock and open.
Anthony’s POV:
Me and my cousin look at the girls when someone starts banging on the door. They look terrified but Tara looks scared out of her mind. I knew what was going on once I heard a man's voice. Clearly he had hurt on if not both of them by their reactions and it pissed me off. One thing I hated more than anything else was a man hitting a woman. Especially a tiny one. Tara was like 5’6, are you serious? I walked towards the door and opened it, coming face to face to a man who was just about the same size as me. His eyes look bewildered as he nearly fell into me.
“Who the f**k are you and what are you doing in my apartment?!”
“You’re apartment?” I asked pretending to look confused
“Yes my apartment with my b***h who lives here”, he spat trying to look behind me at Tara.
“You cheating on me?!”
“We’re not together please leave” she cried and he just shook his head.
“You’re my property now get these people out so we can talk” he spat back at her. She was shaking and crying and I never felt more angry in my life. She was too sweet and beautiful to go through this.
“You need to leave my house” I said calmly to the man.
Everyone stopped and stared when I said it.
What the f**k is this?! He shouted trying to push past me.
“I’m with Tara now. She’s my girl and she asked me to move in. So this is my apartment now and my lady, and if you call her a b***h again I’m going to break your jaw” I said coldly.
The girls gasped as my cousin just chuckled and the man went wild, swinging at me. We started to fight in the hallway and we reached the stairs when I heard a blood curdling scream. Tara was running towards us and I was bewildered thinking she was trying to stop me when she used her tiny body to slam into the man, causing him to fall down the stairs. I look at her and she looked at me, taking her hand and intertwining it with mine. She was breathing heavily and smiled up at me. I smiled back until I heard the man scream at us from the bottom of the stairs.
“How dare you be with another man? You’re gonna pay you w***e b***h!”
I fake run down the stairs and he runs away and out the building.
“Punk b***h” I mutter under my breath and she laughs at the comment.
“Not everyday I get saved twice by a handsome man” she says to me.
I look down at the tiny cutie and smile before we walk back to the apartment. When we get there, my cousin and his friend are gone. We both get a text and look at our phones and see the same message about the girl being scared so she invited my cousin to stay with her fo the night. I look up and so does she and we linger for a moment before I say good night and start to head downstairs. She grabs my arm and I look back at her.
“Crystal doesn’t have the wrong idea. The company of a man who can protect you is exactly what I need tonight...will you stay?”
