Wale as Mike
I’m lying in bed with this woman in my arms. All I can think about is Meagan…
I haven’t really talked to her since her date with that guy she went out with a week ago. I’m guessing it went well because she has not called me.
The doorbell rings. I immediately I look over at the time… It’s 9:01 AM. Who the hell is at my door this early in the morning? I slowly slid my arm from under her head and got up.
I put my shorts on and headed to the door. I looked out the peep hole to see Meagan. What is she doing here so early? “Fuck,” I said to myself as I opened the door.
Dessi as Meagan
Meagan pushed her way into the house, “Why the hell did it take you so long to answer the door?” she said with an attitude.
I closed the door behind her and followed her into the kitchen, “I was sleeping”
Meagan replied with a sense of guilt, “Oh sorry, I thought maybe you were in here with a woman. I was trying to be noisy”.
Laughing, “Noisy for what?”
“You know how you are”, she said looking at with a cute smile.
“Why are you even up this early?” I said trying to get myself to fully wake up.
Meagan said with a big smile, “I really want to come over here and talk to you about this guy. I know it’s early but I had to talk to someone”
Sitting down I said looking at her, “what about this guy?”
She sat down in the chair beside me excited, “Okay so do you remember the date I went on last week?”
I said with a straight face, “uhhh yeah what about it?”
“Well the guy is a sweetheart and we literally have been spending crazy time together”
“That’s why I haven’t gotten any calls from you?” I said in my feelings about the situation.
“Sorry I just been preoccupied”, She said with a sweet grin.
“You didn’t fuck this guy, did you?” I asked with suspicion.
“What? Hell no! You know me better than that” she said a little confused.
Hearing those words, made me feel much better about the situation. The truth is if she said the opposite I couldn’t do anything about it. It’s the fact that I know she hasn’t gotten into anything serious with this guy. The question that keeps repeating in my head is; if she knew how I felt would she give me a chance? And I keep repeating the same answer. I know her response would be “NO!” because she knows about all my previous relationships that ended in destruction in full detail.
Meagan continued, “I don’t care how much I like him. I don’t give it up that easy”
“I know, I need to find me a girl like you”
She shook her head in disagreement, “You don’t want someone like me. You couldn’t handle the pressure to be in that type of relationship”
“I can handle that kind of relationship” I said in an aggressive tone.
“This coming from the man that can’t live without sex for more than two weeks, Mike I know you like the back of my hand. You like the thought of a woman like me but you could never deal with that type of woman on a serious level.”
Does she really think I can’t commit myself to one woman? This isn’t true, I can, I just haven’t found the right person that has made me feel the kind of love I want.
Meagan has always been the person I turn to for support and I now realize that she is who I want to spend the rest of my life with. How do I tell her that?
“I haven’t been in a relationship where I felt the need to wait. The relationships I have been in, in the past, were developed because of sex and some may have grown further but never serious. I just don’t believe in putting in time with someone that I don’t feel a certain love for. I’ll keep you around if you’re good at what you do but you aren’t going to be my wife.”
“Your wife? You think about marriage when your dating?” laughing a bit confused.
“Yeah, when I think of getting serious with a woman, she must be someone I feel I can potentially marry”
Laughing, “You’re joking right?”
Mike has a straight face wonder what Meagan found so funny.
Meagan continued, “Oh, you’re serious. I would never expect you to say something like that”
“Yeah I realize that now” I replied pissed about where the conversation was heading.
There was an awkward silence for a second as Meagan scrolled through her phone then looked up and said, “Okay, I’m going to go now. I’ll talk to you later”. Meagan got up and walked out of the front door. I wasn’t happy with the way Meagan and I ended our conversation together. I feel as though she has a negative image of the person I am, but who can really blame her. I got up and locked the door behind her just then Kelly came walking out of the room in my tee shirt.
Kelly
“Who was that?” Kelly asked pointing to the door in suspicion.
“It was a friend” I said walking away from the door.
Kelly repeated my words in suspicion, “A friend”
I nodded my head “Yes”.
Kelly replied, “If it was a friend why didn’t you introduce us?”
“You were sleeping babe; I didn’t want to walk you up”
“So was this friend a male or female?” looking Mike directly in the eye with her hands folded.
“What?”
“You heard what I said” She replied waiting for his response
“Why does it matter?” I said walking to the bedroom
She followed me into the room pissed, “Because if it was just a friend you would have let me see them. Yes or no?”
“I told you I didn’t want to wake you up”
“Bullshit, you’re a fucking liar. Why do you always do this shit?” She said with her eyes tearing up.
“What did I do now?” I said shaking my head in irritation
“You tell me about how much you care and love me, then you do disrespectful shit like this. If you don’t want me just let me know and I’ll leave you alone” she said as the tearing rolled down her face.
“If I didn’t want you, you wouldn’t be here right now” I gently pulled her close and wiped her eyes, “I love you and I wouldn’t do anything to hurt you”.
Why the hell did I just lie to her again? I won’t lie I do care about Kelly but I’m just not in love with her. I hate to say it but she’s just my distraction. I just can’t stand to see her in front of me crying knowing I’m the one causing it. I rather just tell her what she wants to hear to ease the situation.
“Are you sure?” she said sniffling and wiping her eyes again.
“Yes, I love you”, I said I kissed her on the lips.
This brought a smile to her face but hurt me deep inside. Kelly gets what she wants but when will I ever get what I want?
