Chris POV

I flew down to SD around noon. It was a super quick flight. Up and down within 30 minutes. I was actually kind of happy to see Shawnie because I haven't seen her in a while. We FaceTime every now and then so she can talk to Gen, but that's pretty much the extent of me seeing her since before she left.

The car service was waiting for us when Gen and I got off the plane. We headed straight to the address Shawnie texted me when she first moved here. I didn't bother to call Shawnie while we were on our way to her house. I know she knew we were on our way to San Diego because I called her and let her know we were on the plane but she doesn't know that we landed or anything.

I pulled up to the house and it really didn't look like much from the street but I saw that was a completely different story once I started walking around to the back of the house. She clearly spent some money on this place. I looked through the patio doors and the house was gorgeous. I knocked on the door to see if anyone would come downstairs and then I heard a noise above me.

"You got two seconds to tell me who you are before I shoot you." I heard a man above me. 

I stepped out from under the upstairs balcony and I saw Joe staring down at me with his hand behind his back.

"Aw, what's up boy!!" Joe says excitedly.

"What's up!!" I say. I watched him walk down the stairs and over to me.

"Shawnie, didn't tell me you were coming this early."

"Yeah, I wanted to let her get some time in with Gen before we headed out."

"What are y'all doing?" He asks

"I'm going to take her out to dinner for her birthday. I planned a nice little boat dinner for her."

"That's nice...Question, Is anything going on between you two?"

"Nah, I just wanted to do something nice for her. That's all."

"O oh okay. That's dope! Okay." He smiles.

I kinda look at him for a few seconds because what the hell is he asking me that for. That shit ain't none of his motherfucking business.

"Omg! Give me my baby!!" I hear Shawnie yelling from the living room. She rushes out and grabs Gen from my arms. She starts hugging and kissing her like a mad woman.

"Damn. Hello Chris. I'm happy to see you too." I say sarcastically. Damn she doesn't even care that I'm here.

"Hey!" She says dryly.

"So since you have our daughter here you have no use for me or a reason to talk to me now, huh?"

"Nope." She laughs and goes back inside.

"It's been just y'all too for a while, how has that been?" I ask

"It's been all right." Joe says

"I know you're here with her 24/7 and y'all have this been nothing but time together. But what's been going on with her and Drake?" I ask

"The usual. Gaslighting her like a motherfucker."

I shake my head. "She said it was being taken care of but  what happened last night?"

"I'll let her tell you that. It's not my place to tell you if she wants to share that information with you she can, But I'm not gonna get in the middle of that situation."

"That serious, huh?"

"Serious enough for her to be pissed off at him, yeah." He says

"Aight, I'm gonna go talk to her. We're not going anywhere so if you want to chill out and go somewhere you can. Will be here for a few hours." I would like for him to leave and give us some privacy so I can talk to her without feeling like he's listening. I don't have any feelings towards Joe. I like the guy, I think he's cool as fuck and the fact that he choked Drake out gives him major points with me.

Joe and I walk into the house. He tells Shawnie he'll be back later, grabs the keys off of the counter and leaves. I sit on the sofa next to her and she just smiles at me.

"I'm happy you're here." She says. "I don't know if you were just joking or not but don't ever think that I don't wanna see you. I always wanna see you."

"Cap. If Drake was running around you wouldn't want to see me. You'll be up his ass." I start playing with Gen.

"Anyway, So what are we doing tonight?"

"I'm going to take you out on this boat and we're going to just relax, and have dinner. Whatever else happens, that's up to you." I say, smiling big.

She smiles, "Okay."

We just chilled out and watched TV and spent time with Gen as a family. That's what I missed the most, having moments like this. I always wanted us to be like this, and I thought that we were going to have that but then she moved down to SD. I'm happy we get this time together.

After a few hours, we took Gen to Lexi and we headed out to our date. Well, not a date, dinner. I took her out on the water. I don't own one, so I rented a yacht for the night, fully equipped with wait staff, and a chef.

We spent the first part of the night talking. We had light conversation, nothing too heavy. Then we sat down for dinner and talked some more. I also made sure they made all of her favorite foods. It was nice to just talk to her as my friend. We didn't talk about Jasmine, or Drake, but it seemed we talked about everything else. It was a natural conversation. Things felt like they used to and that was putting the biggest smile on my face. We were just happy and we both could tell.

After we ate, we had dessert. We shared a vanilla bean cheesecake slice. I made sure they made it because it is her favorite. It came with a candle on top for her to blow it out and also had fresh strawberries and whipped cream. She blew out her candle and we took a couple of bites because we couldn't finish it all. We were pretty full.

They came and took our plates as she called Lexi to check on Gen. I watched her moves and studied her. I see the difference. She isn't the same and that alone I'm attracted to. She hung up the phone and sat it down on the table, then she looked up at me and smiled.

"What?" She says, sitting her elbows on the table and placing her chin on her hands.

I shake my head. "Nothing."

She took the cone out of my ear and lit it. I watched her hit it a couple of times, then sat it down. She picked up her glass of wine and took a couple of sips.

"You good?" I ask

She nods her head up and down. "So album dropping..." she smiles

"Yeah, midnight. I'm excited."

"I know you are. You've been working so hard on this and you have been for a long time. I'm happy it's finally releasing."

"Me too." I say. "But I'm here with you, instead of trying to prepare."

"I appreciate this so much." She giggles a little and it makes me laugh.

I can tell she's feeling the effects of the alcohol.

I drink up the rest of my Hennessy. I sit the glass down on the table and I sit back in my seat. I watch as she takes another hit. She still sexy as fuck.

"You know I'm not one to bring up pictures I see in the media, but I did see the pictures from the other night." I say

"I haven't seen them. What about them?" She asks

"They just weren't good pictures. I could tell you were drunk. One of the articles said something about you guys getting into it at a restaurant and some guy was with you?"

"We definitely got into a heated discussion at dinner that night but we weren't yelling or anything. I tried my hardest not to cause a scene and... it was just a bad night."

"So you taking care of it?" I ask

"Yes."

"Okay. If you—."

"I don't need you to do anything. I don't want you to get in any kind of trouble, you have a lot going on right now and the last thing I want to be is a distraction for you. Focus on the tour, your album, all of that. I'm fine."

"You sure?"

"Yes." She says

"Aight. The only thing I can do is listen to you. I know you will call me if you need me."

"I will." She finishes her glass of wine.

"Come here." I say

She smiles and shakes her head no.

"Man, I'm not tryna hear none of that. Get your ass over here." I say

She smiles and shakes her head no again.

"Shawnie, why do you do this to me? You do this shit all the time. You know it just makes me get more frustrated."

"Sexually frustrated. I know that tone." She says

"So if you know what it is, why are you playing with me? You know you're making my dick hard when you tease me like this."

"Making you work for it." She says

"Oh, so you are going to give it to me, I just gotta work?" I ask for clarification.

"I might." She giggles again.

"Well, get over here then." I say.

She smiles and slowly rises out of her chair. I know this shit is getting old but I love my baby. I don't know when I'm going to see her again because of my tour, which is another reason I planned this. We haven't done anything in a while. I've been keeping my distance and cool because she asked me to but she's about to get this dick tonight.

I hold my hand out to her as she walks around the table to me. She takes my hand and she sits on my lap, putting one arm around my neck, and crossing her legs.

"Kiss me." I say

She leans down to my lips and kisses me. We engage in a sweet little kiss for a few minutes, then I start rubbing on her thigh, trying to get between them.

"Open up." I say, almost in a disappointed moan, not wanting my lips to part from hers.

I move down to her neck as she stands up, removing my lips from her neck. I was about to get mad but then she straddles me, putting her legs on both sides of me. She sits down on my lap, opening her legs, giving me complete access. She smiles as she grabs my face and kisses me deeply.

I pull her skirt up over her ass. I smack it then grab it. Damn, I have really missed this ass. I began to caress it for a while, giving it all of my attention that it's missed overtime. This was perfect.

After I finished admiring her ass, I pull her panties to the side as I start playing with her clit and fingering her. I only do it for a couple of minutes. I just wanted to see how ready she was. I remove my hand and break the kiss so I can suck her juices off of my fingers.

"I'm nervous doing this." She says

"Why?"

"I don't know. We have done this in forever. I'm still married and Aubrey knows my every move."

"You think he's going to find out, or pop up? We on a boat far out from the coast. Ain't shit bout to pop but yo pussy."

She laughs

"You don't have to worry about none of that. It's just me and you, and I ain't gon say shit."

She nods her head. "Okay." She says, then she kisses me.

We make out for a while and then I stop the kiss because I want to go to the bedroom. So I'll take her hand and we go into the bedroom and close the door behind us and we get down to business.

She sat down at the foot of the bed and watched me pull my shirt over my head and throw it on the ground.

"You bout to watch me strip?"

"I'm just admiring the view. I haven't seen it in a while." She smiles.

"Haven't seen this shit in a long ass time." I smile as I unbuckle my belt, then unbutton my pants.

She signals for me to walk over to her, so I do. She unzips my pants and pulls them down and I step out of them. Damn, no regrets this time I see. I'm feeling it.

I stand her up and up up her skirt, then drop it to her ankles and I see her purple thong. She knows I like how purple looks on her skin. I untie her top and pull it off, revealing her bare breasts.

"You had plans for me, huh?" I smile

"I might've wanted some Breezy tonight." She says

I smile hard as hell, "Breezy get you right every time."

Knowing she wanted me just does something to me. Makes me feel warm and tingly inside...especially in my Dick. I'm bout to make love to this woman.

She reaches for my waistband of my boxers and I step out of her reach.

"None of that tonight. I just want to make love to you." I say

"Seriously? I wanna suck your dick." We both laugh. "Give me your dick."

I don't fight with her, I step toward her and she pulls my boxers down. It bounces up and she catches it.

"Awww, my little heart." She giggles. "I haven't seen it in so long." She says referring to the heart tattoo on my dick.

"Don't say awww ain't nothing cute about this monster." I say and she laughs.

She kisses it, then puts me into her mouth. She instantly moans, as she begins sucking it. My head falls back and I close my eyes.

"That feels good, baby." I say

She slowly sucks my dick. I look down at her, taking in this view that I probably won't get too many more times.

"Look at me." I say

She looks up and she continues bobbing up and down. She takes me out of her mouth then starts licking the full length of my cock. The sight is sending me. She knows I love to see that shit.

"I need you." I say

She climbs up the bed and lays on her back, then takes off her thong. She opens her legs and starts rubbing herself. The sight turned me on even more. I quickly made my way to her, diving in head first. I've been wanting to taste her all damn night. I'm happy I finally get to do this. It's long overdue. She hasn't let me do anything in months.

I savored every second, as I licked every inch of her. I took in every moan she made. I paid attention to her every reaction to my tongue. Luckily I know what she likes and it didn't take any time before she told me she was about to cum. I grabbed her thighs and made that happen.

I climbed up to her and entered her. We locked eyes as she grabbed my face with both of her hands, bringing my face down to hers for a kiss. We make out for a while, as we had sex. I was loving every second of this. I couldn't ask for anything to be different. Well, I could. I would like for her to be mine right now.

I pulled away for a second to look at her. I wanted to see her facial expression as I was giving her this dick.

"I love you." I say

"You love my pussy." she says, jokingly.

"I love that too, but I also love you." I look deep into her eyes, deep stroking her at the same time.

"I love you too." She brings my face back down to hers and kisses me again.

We stayed that way until we both came. I pulled out of course but I didn't want to. Shit just didn't feel right but she is married, so I can't risk getting her pregnant again.

After we were done having sex, we were making out in bed pretty heavy. I was ready for some more and I was on top of her, about to get shit started but her phone vibrated on the nightstand.

"Fuck!" She says. "Watch this be Aubrey."

"Answer it." I say, kissing down her stomach.

She reaches over and looks at her phone, then sits up.

"What?"

"It's Christian..."

"Christian? Who the fuck is that?" I ask

She looks at me funny for a second.

"What? Who the fuck is that?" I ask again, growing irritated. Am I missing something?

"Just hold on..." she says then answers the call.

"What the fuck?" I say aloud. How the fuck is she going to answer the phone when I'm about to give her head?

"Hey, I'm with Chris right now, can I call you back?.....because...." She laughs

I know how to fix this situation.

I aggressively pin her legs back forcing her to lay back on the bed and I attack her pussy with my tongue.

"....mmm Christian I have to go." She says covering her mouth with her free hand.

I look at her. "Nah, stay on the phone."

"Okay...bye." She drops the phone on the bed.

I come up and look at her. "You better not ever answer the phone for another nigga when I don't have no clothes on."

"I'm sorry...punish me." She smiles

I tried to stay mad but that shit just made my dick hard. I laugh. "You know you know how to get to me."

She laughs and flips me over on my back. But she doesn't do or say anything she just looks at me.

"What are you thinking, baby?" I ask

"How much I miss you."

"I miss you too. That's why I wanted to do this. Not the sex, I mean the dinner."

She chuckles a little. "I'm starting to feel the mistakes that I have made when it comes to you. I already know I was making a mistake by marrying him but I want you to know that all of my feelings for him were real and they still are real and even though I feel this way about you, I still feel the same way about him. I just have to remove myself because I'm not gonna be in a relationship where it's only me. I'm not telling you this because I want to leave him and get back with you because that's not what I'm thinking. I'm just being honest with you and I'm being as honest as I can right now. I don't feel bad for being here with you."

"That's because he's on your nerves."

"That may be true. But a huge secret within our marriage is that I know he's been cheating." She says and to be honest I'm a little shocked. Mr. can't do no wrong is out here acting like the next nigga.

"Damn.... I'm sorry. You can't catch a break." I instantly feel bad for her. It's like she is constantly going through stuff. I know I did my share of dirt but I've learned from the shit that I've done. I know how much I hurt her and I regret every second of it. But it feels worse to me that he did it because she got with him because of me, and he ain't no better.

"Just like with you, I was faithful to him, and he still did his thing. He was very discreet about it and I probably still wouldn't know if I didn't have access to his bank accounts."

"I'm sorry you're going through all of this but I can only speak for me and I accept everything that's happened between us and I know you forgiving me for them and I have forgiven myself. I've made a lot of mistakes and now that I'm a little older and sober now, I know the damage that it's caused other people, especially you with our situation. I'm sorry. That's all I can say. I would love to spend the rest of my life making it up to you if you would allow me too."

"That's really sweet, Chris. I appreciate it, I really do...but I wasn't telling you all of this for the conversation to go this way. Like I said, I just want to be as honest with you as I can." She says

"I'm at the point where I wanna fight for what's mine. This shit been going on for too long. You need to bring yo ass home now. I want my pussy when I want it and I wanna see my baby everyday. I want you to come on tour with me again, kids and all. I want to remove you from that shity ass situation immediately. Get some more distance in between the two of you."

"Distance does not keep Aubrey away from me. I think we all know that by now. I know what I have to do." She says

"If you know what you have to do, then I don't need to do anything. But, you know if you need me I got you."

"I know."

"Aight..." I go in and kiss her. "Now who the fuck is Christian?"

She laughs, "Christian was my first boyfriend."

"Ohhh, this the dude Drake was talking about." I say trying to remember the conversation that day he came to my house.

"What? You and Aubrey talked about Christian?" She says looking confused.

"Yeah that day he came by the house to talk to me. He said something about him, but I don't remember what exactly was said."

"Interesting." She says

"So why are you in contact with him?" I ask

"To make a long story short, I ended things with him to be with Marcel, and you know what happened with Marcel." She explains

"Did y'all stay in contact or what because I'm trying to bridge the gap between now and then."

"Well, since I've been living in San Diego, we've been in contact because we randomly ran into each other."

"That's convenient... Almost impossible. How was it that both of y'all are from Chicago but you both ended up in the same place, in San Diego?"

"Well Christian and I had a plan that we were going to graduate then move to San Diego and start our careers and family. I just happened to come down here of course, but he stuck with the plan. One day, Joe and I were out at a restaurant and he saw me. And we have been in contact since then." She explains

I just nod my head. I really want to say how suspicious this sounds, and I don't want to put ideas in her head but this sounds suspicious. It could very well be what happened but the fact that he was asking me about this man and now all of a sudden she's in contact with him and talking to him I'd just feel like Drake has something to do with this. I could be wrong, and overthinking shit, but the situation is just weird to me. That motherfucker could be testing her. I'm gonna try to get as much information about this as I can.

I shake my thoughts and I focus back on her.

"Aight. Climb up on this dick."

What did y'all think about this chapter??
