When it's wrong

18.

-A'Niyla 

Hearing loud snoring woke me from my sleep, looking over to see Dave asleep next to me with his hand in my tank top and his fingers on my n****e. Laughing slightly at the amount of noise that was coming from him. I gently removed his hand from inside my shirt, I wasn't going to mention this to him it was embarrassing enough for me already. I looked at the nightstand to see that it was still early only 10:30 a.m.

I decided that I needed to email Rihana's assistant and let her know I was available to decorate her home. Scrolling until I saw the email, I opened it and wrote back saying I would love to accept the job and that I already had traveled and where I was staying taken care of. I closed out the apps and laid my phone on the nightstand. Gently I got out of bed to go brush my teeth and take a shower. I didn't want to wake Dave he looked so peaceful sleeping, this was the first time in about six months that I've slept in the bed with anyone. Derrick stopped coming to bed so long ago. It felt nice just talking to him last night. He was so understanding, although he seemed super rough around the edges I seen a different side of him. I walked in the bathroom and started the shower, letting it get warm I took off my clothes and set them on the sink. I brushed my teeth and put my hair in a high bun so it wouldn't get wet. I stepped into the shower letting the water run over my body trying hard to avoid getting my hair wet. I brought some of my own body wash with me because I knew I didn't like the stuff they had here. I poured a decent amount on my luffa and began to wash my body. Thankfully I had gotten a wax a few days ago so I didn't have to shave. I started singing, not many people knew I could actually sing beside my parents and Derrick. But any time I sang he would usually tell me to be quiet. He was really mean to me now that I think of it. Before I got with him I was carefree and loved myself flaws and all. But Derrick had a way of making me feel less than. If he wasn't commenting on my weight then it was the clothes I wore. Nothing I ever did was good enough for him. The whole five years I was with him I barely talked to anyone other than a client about work. He always went out and drank, while I stayed home. When I first got together with Derrick I told him how much it meant to me to be a mommy, it was something I've always wanted. But he told me kids weren't for him. I put my wants aside a lot of the times just to please him and make him happy.

I was so deep in thought that I didn't even see Dave sitting on the toilet until he started talking scaring me half to death. "Damn you can really sing ma, why you don't do that s**t professionally?" he said causing me to scream and jump almost slipping on the wet floor. OH MY GOD, Dave, what the hell are you doing in here and you scared the f**k out of me. I semi screamed. "Calm down ma I can't see s**t and I heard you singing and that s**t sounded beautiful as hell, I needed to come in here so I could hear it more. Act like I ain't even in here keep singing." He said chuckling. No Dave I am not going to keep singing I said laughing and trying to cover my body as best as I could. A part of me hated how self-conscious I had become, the old me wouldn't have cared.  I missed that old me so much, I was determined to get her back. Not caring that he was in there I decided to finish my shower. Dave at least stop looking at me. I said washing my legs. "Okay, okay my bad ma. You are just so f*****g beautiful I can't help it. But imma brush my teeth and then I'll be outta here." He said beginning to stand. Wait you're leaving? I said before I could even think about it. " No I meant like I'll be out of the bathroom girl, chill I ain't going nowhere haha you was finna miss me huh?" he said playing around. Shut the hell up Dave I was just curious.  "Yeah keep telling yourself that ma." He said starting to brush his teeth.

I was just finishing up with the shower but he was still in the bathroom washing his face. I turned off the shower and tried to grab the towel that was on the toilet right outside of the shower. It was just out of my reach, so I asked Dave if he could grab it for me. Hey, Dave, can you pass me that towel please I asked peaking my head from behind the shower door. "Yeah of course ma, anything for you," he said grabbing the towel. He passed it to me and I quickly took it wrapping it around my body. Stepping out of the shower I was now able to get a better look at him he stood there in just his boxers. His body was the definition of perfect the way his tattoos wrapped around his stomach and arms. He stepped closer to me causing me to look up into his eyes, my breath increased he made me so nervous yet so calm. It was the weirdest feeling.

Are you just going to stand there? I said laughing. "Oh dang I didn't even see you down there." He said making fun of how short I was. I was much smaller than him, he had to be at least 6'3 so compared to the 5'2 frame he towered over me. Well, move boy dang. I said pushing him out of the way, my push did absolutely nothing he was so strong. He didn't even budge. Laughing he picked me up and threw me over his shoulder. The way he grabbed me by my sides tickled me so I couldn't stop laughing as he carried me into the room. I was able to get out a few words but they fell on deaf ears. He threw me on the bed instantly invading my space by laying basically on top of me. As we both stared into each other's eyes my heart started beating out of my chest. I didn't know what he was planning to do, not to mention the fact that I was still very naked under this towel.

Before I knew it Dave had his thick juicy pink lips on mine, my hands instantly wrapped around his head bringing him in closer to deepen the kiss. He started kissing my neck causing me to moan out in pleasure. It had been so long since I'd been kissed like this, it was so full of passion. His kisses on my neck lead to licks as he slowly unwrapped my towel from my breast. My hands still rubbing through his hair as he kissed and sucked on my n*****s and boobs. Dave. I said breathily. "Yes, ma." He said now looking into my eyes. "Do you want me to stop?" he asked sincerely. I didn't want him to stop, my body was screaming for him to continue but I knew I couldn't continue. This wasn't me he was a client after all...

-Dave

The look on Niyla's face was a mix of passion and confusion, I didn't want to complicate things more than they already were. The way her body was feeling beneath mine was worth the risk, at this point I didn't give a f**k about her decorating s**t.

Looking into her eyes I could tell she was unsure, I carefully wrapped the towel back around her body and pulled her up to where she was now sitting on my lap. My hard d**k was now pressing up against her ass. Even something as innocent as her sitting on my lap made me want to f**k her crazy. Listen Ma, my bad about that I don't ever want you to be unsure about anything with me. I won't kiss you again until you ask me to. I said whispering into her neck as she laid her head on my chest. " Don't say sorry Dave we are both adults," she said quietly. Yeah, you right but you have my word okay beautiful. I said lifting her chin up to make her look me in my eyes. "Okay daddy," she said laughing as she hopped off my lap. Girl you betta chill calling me daddy, I can show your little ass daddy alright. I said laughing along with her.

I was just in my boxers so I grabbed the clothes I had on the night before and put them on while she got ready in the bathroom. Lacing up my shoes my phone started ringing. I answered it seeing it was my bro Hakeem. Yo. I answered. " Listen moe we found out whos been taking money from the trap in the Bronx, whatchu want us to do with him?" Hakeem said. Word, take his ass the spot in the Brooklyn. I said. " Say less," Hakeem said knowing exactly what I was referring to and hung up. I rarely ever got my hands dirty anymore, I was getting older and didn't need to be doing that s**t no more. When I told people to take someone to Brooklyn they knew it meant to kill them and dump the body in the water. I was very careful when it came to killing someone. My people knew the protocol and never strayed from it.

Seeing my phone was on 20% I sild it into my pocket, just as Niyla was coming out of the bathroom fully dressed and looked so damn good. She had on this pure white wrap type shirt that was lowcut in the front that showed her big ole juicy titties, and some gray pants that looked like they were painted on the way her ass sat up in them made me want to grab a handful. I was completely speechless just looking at her, yo I don't know how the f**k dude passed her up. I was going to make it my mission to wife her. I couldn't let her go easily. She wasn't paying me any attention as I was staring at her. It was crazy not to have her all over me and reserved in away. I always dealt with loud over the top bitches, that was only good for f*****g and leaving. But Niyla was different the way she carried herself with so much respect. She was looking at her phone looking like she was in deep thought and kinda mad. I walked over to where she was standing what's wrong? I asked standing in front of her.

" Derrick's attorney just emailed me notifying me that he isn't keeping our home and that I have to sell it because it's in my name and that all his stuff is already out," she said sounding annoyed.  Why you mad about that ma? That doesn't seem to bad. All you have to do is sell it and find a new crib. I said trying to make her feel better. " It's so much easier said than done Dave, Rihanna's assistant also emailed me letting me know they would like me out there by the end of the week, it's already Wednesday. I just don't know how I'm going to get all this done before I have to leave," she said sitting down.  Why don't you have your assistant take care of the house, and you just worry about Cuba, and while we are there you can look for a new place to live, your assistant can also handle the paperwork and stuff for your new place. I said coming up with a solution. Just as she was getting ready to say something the smile on her face disappeared as she looked at her phone, It seemed as if she was reading something not wanting to interrupt her I just sat there. A few seconds later she looked up with tears in her eyes. " My assistant just texted me saying that she was quitting and needed a break from me and everything," she said looking so defeated. Try to call her and see what's up ma, maybe she just having a bad day. I said moving closer to her. Watching her dial her assistant she put the phone on speaker, just for the phone to go straight to voicemail. She called back right away and the same thing happened. Her face looked scared as hell and I couldn't help but wonder why. She broke the silence and began to talk with tears in her voice. " Dave, her stepdad used to r**e her and abuse her. What if something happened to her I shouldn't have left her at the house with Derrick," she said full-on crying now. She tried calling Derrick his phone went to straight to voicemail. Some s**t just didn't add up to me. She was just at this dudes crib now her phone was going straight to voicemail and so was his. Aye ma what's her last name? I asked. She looked up and said, Bennett. I pulled out my phone texting my bro Chance and gave him the assistant's name and told him I needed to find out where she was at right now and if she was okay and I needed details on her family. Basically, I needed every bit of information on her now. I sent the message and put my phone back in my pocket. I knew how chance worked and knew he would get back to me asap.

Niyla, ma stop crying I said picking her up, she instantly wrapped her legs around my waist. I walked us back to the bed and sat down. Niyla I promise I will find out what's going on with your assistant. I just hit my boy up and he is the smartest mutha fucka I know I promise we will have an answer in a less than a half-hour. I said to her trying to calm her nerves.

Sitting on Dave's lap I felt like it was finally hitting me that my life was getting ready to change so drastically. I stopped crying, I was so tired of f*****g crying, it seems like that's all I did while I was with Derrick. Thank-You, I said to Dave. I still couldn't understand why he was being so nice to me. I laid against his chest just listening to his heartbeat it was as if our hearts were beating at the same exact pace. His phone vibrating in his pocket scared me a little. He lifted me a little so he could grab his phone. He held it so we both could see the screen. I couldn't believe my eyes. I wasn't mad but more so in shock, on his phone was a picture of Kelsey and Derrick kissing in his car. Underneath the picture, there was another message saying that Kelsey just had signed her name along with Derricks on an apartment. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. Not really knowing what to say I just stayed quiet. Dave broke the silence. " That is some f****d up s**t ma are you okay?" he asked. Yes, actually I'm not even mad. I don't expect anything less from Derrick's b***h ass. But seeing Kelsey like this is hurting my heart she is the last person I'd ever expect to do something like this to me.

I didn't even have any more tears to cry at this point. I could care less what the f**k Derrick was doing but Kelsey really did hurt. I wanted to leave and forget both of them more than ever. But I needed to get my house situation taken care of first. I called my realtor and asked her to put my house on the market asap. She said she could get it posted in about two days and she didn't really need anything from me but the keys. After the call with her, I called a cleaning company and scheduled movers. The only thing I wanted from the house was my clothes. The moving company was scheduled to come and move all of my clothes out later tonight around eight. I gave them my credit card information and hung up. Dave just looked in awe. " Damn I didn't expect you to handle all that so well," he said. " If you want you can keep all your clothes at my house until we get back from Cuba and you get settled into a new place, I can also help you get a new place while we are there I have a few connections that should make it easier," he said smiling. Dave I can't, I started to say. " Look Niyla, when we go over to your house I want you to tell the movers to bring your clothes to my house. okay?" He said more seriously. Okay, Dave but I really owe you I said looking into his eyes. I barely knew this man yet he was helping me as if he'd known me his whole life.

Getting all this bad news today I just needed to relax and forget about everything for a while. Dave will you take a nap with me I said just above a whisper. " Of course ma you ain't even gotta ask," he said kicking off his shoes and tossing me on the bed. He got in next to me lifting me onto his body, I hesitated at first but instantly got comfortable on him. He kissed me on my head and before I knew it we were both knocked out...
