Ryan eyes opened due to a certain awakening and she immediately felt the memories came as a rush. She shot up and looked around the nice colored room.
She felt a sudden wind of air hit her exposed skin. She looked down and seen herself in only a bra and shorts.
What the hell....
She noticed a red jacket on the ground and she quickly grabbed it and put it on. She heard the door open and she turned and saw the same man that kidnapped her
He held a tray in his hand and placed it on top of the dresser. When he turned to her she immediately backed away from him. He walked closer to her and Ryan looked around for any weapons and there were none. Her eyes then landed on the small lamp and she grabbed it and got ready to use it if she had to.
"Don't come closer!" She said.
He continued on, unfazed by her.
"I-I'm warning you!" She said as her hands continued to shake.
He stopped right just a feet from her. His eyes took in her appearance. A smirk formed on his face when he saw her wearing his jacket.
Sexy, He thought.
Creep, she thought as she caught him looking her up and down.
He quickly grabbed the lamp out her hand and placed it on the nightstand, were it once was.
"Now you have to listen to me so you could understand why I abducted you."
"Who are you?" She said as her entire body started shaking. He noticed her sudden change. She was scared and he knew she would do anything to protect herself.
He backed away from her but still kept his eye on her. "I am Joel—Calhoun."
Ryan instantly knew who he was. Tasha's brother. They were crazy.
"No, no no no." She got on the bed to try to get to the door but she was stopped by his voice.
"I hope you are smart enough to not do that. I wouldn't want to get physical with you."
Obligated to do as he told. She sat back down on the comfortable bed. She did not want to stay here. She let her eyes gaze over and found the door.
"As I said before you do not want me to get physical with you." He said before continuing "I am just doing my part of the job."
Furrowing her eyebrows in confusion, Ryan asked "And what exactly is that job?"
"Fvcking you."....
In Florida, Miami
"Chris! Another lap!" Coach Kelly yelled which made chris even more pissed. He ran around the court while the others on the team practice by playing a scrimmage game.
Chris obligately ran across the court. Tear sweats trickled down his face and his back. The sweat was becoming noticeable through his clothes.
Sulem just walked in and took a seat in one of the chairs. She watched Chris and tiredness was evident in his face. Sulem's eyes traveled to the other players that were playing a scrimmage game.
She saw how Chris stopped randomly and walked up to Coach Kelly and what he did was so shocking.
"This is bullshit! When do I get to play in the games!" He yelled in the coach's presence.
Kelly's face turned into shock before it quickly went to anger. "Brown, I suggest that y—"
"Man Fvck this s**t!" Chris snapped before walking off to the locker room to get his stuff.
Sulem hurried to were Chris Coach was as he told all players that witnessed the entire scene, to get back to work.
"I'm sorry, Coach Kelly. Chris is—"
He snorted, "Short tempered. So I've heard. I know who you are Miss Calderon and I see that you strongly support Chris."
Sulem nodded her head. She did not need Chris to get kicked off the team or traded again.
"Your good for Chris and he needs someone like you."
Sulem smiled and her smile widened when she heard what he said next. "Tell that man of yours to meet me here exactly 6 in the morning. I will let him calm down for now."
Sulem smiled before rushing to the men's locker room. Once she entered she saw Chris packing his things.
"Where are you going?"
Chris sighed sharply and said, "Don't come in here to fill my head with excuses."
Sulem folded her arms with a frown on her face. "Are you serious?"
Chris sighed and zipped the bag up. He grabbed his bag and threw it on his shoulder. "Not right now." He said as he was about to pass her until she placed her hand on his chest that was very hard.
"Sit down chris." She said and he did not budge.
"You really want to try me, Brown?" Sulem said as her eyes remained on his.
Chris exhaled and sat down in the nearest chair.
Sulem sat next to him and grabbed his hand.
"What's going on Chris?" Her voice laced with worry.
"I'm fine, baby. I'm just tired." He said looking off.
She knew he was lying but she did not want to push it further—at the moment.
"Alright listen. Joel has Ryan and now it's your turn Miguel. Hack into whatever and do what you need to do to get Sulem out the hotel room."
Miguel nodded before walking off to go handle his part of the plan.
Tasha then looked back at Marina. She noticed the sadden and regretful look. "Don't back out now. Remember why your doing this."
Marina nodded and turned to walk out the crowded bar.
Marina walked out to the rented car and got in. She locked the doors and in the next second she dove her head into the steering wheel. Her cries grew by the second as she thought about the best times that happens with Sulem.
She knew Sulem would never forgive her for something like this and she would not blame her. It is her fault after all.
Her mind then drifted off to Kelly. She looked down at her stomach and rubbed it.
She has yet to tell him her secret but she never planned to tell him. She wasn't ready for this so it would be pointless to even call him.
"I'm so sorry...." she cried as she rubbed her stomach.
She rose her head up and wiped her tears. She started the car and took off to the hotel.
****
Sulem laid on Chris chest as they watched tv in his hotel room. Now that they were official she couldn't help but think of what would happen after she goes back to Atlanta.
She only had two more days left here and she couldn't stay any longer. She had a job. As lovely as it would be to stay in Miami, she couldn't.
She sighed heavily as she buried her head more into his chest, holding on to him tighter. Chris felt something was wrong and she was thing really hard on it.
"What's wrong, Sulem?"
She bit her lip not really wanting to start a conversation that may go down hill. "It's nothing. Let's continue watching tv." She said.
After a moment the tv went completely black which caused Sulem to sit up and turned to Chris who was now sitting the remote on the small table.
"Chr—"
"Tell me what's wrong."
Sulem sighed. "Alright but just remember that if this conversation leads to us arguing then it's your fault."
Confusion washed over his face but he nodded for her to start.
"Okay, So you know I have to leave Miami in two days and..." she trailed off thinking of some different words to say.
"You are wondering were that will leave us?" Chris questioned.
"Yes. You know I would love to stay here with you but I have a career in Atlanta. Now that we have made our relationship official, how would that work?"
Chris sighed and said, "It would work as if we are in a long distance relationship. I visit you in Atlanta and you visit me here or other states to watch me play my games. Whenever that happens...." he mumbled the last part.
"So that was less than ten minutes. No arguing or down hill." He smirked. Sulem smiled and shook her head.
Chris phone went off and he grabbed it off the table. He frowned when he seen it was a text from coach. Another one of those messages to meet him at the court.
He sighed and Sulem asked, "What is it?"
"I got to go meet the old ass." He said causing Sulem to chuckle.
"Alright, well I guess I'll see you later?" She said as Chris stood to his feet. He turned and pecked her lips before pulling back. He stared into her eyes that were beautiful to him.
"No Chris, go." Sulem smiled.
He couldn't help but smash his lips into her. They fell back on the couch as Chris bit on her bottom lip. He was about to kiss her again when Sulem put her hand over his mouth.
"You have to go, baby."
Chris moved her hand and placed it on top of her head. "Ight but don't be complaining when I come back here and tear that ass up."
Sulem stuck out her tongue and Chris lips wrapped around her tongue causing her to laugh as she turned her head.
"So nasty, go."
He pecked her lips one last time before walking out the door. She felt her heart melt as she thought of him. The things he did to her.
She heard the door knock. "He must have forgotten something." Sulem mumbled as she walked over to the door.
She opens it and took a double take when she felt a smack land hard on her left cheek. She held her throbbing cheek and looked up.
"You thought I wouldn't find you?" He said as he closed the hotel door.
Oh how she wished Chris would had stayed longer or her girls were here but Fiona went back to the beach and Gina went to go meet up with a man named Travis and Marina went shopping.
She got to her feet and backed away from Miguel
"What do you want from me?" Sulem said as she tried to look for something to use as a weapon without him noticing.
Before she knew it she was pulled into him, struggling to get away from him. He covered her nose with a rag as she struggled. Her struggling went slow as she felt herself grew tired.
And there was darkness
