Destinee
Thinking of him caused me to dial the number I still knew by heart. I wasn’t even sure that it was still his number or if he would answer but he did. Aspen knew exactly who it was when I called. His deep voice just did something to me but it was nothing like seeing him face to face. Thirty minutes later he was standing in the doorway of my old bedroom looking fine as ever. His arms were crossed as he stared at me with a hard glare. I knew he wasn’t going to make this easy on me.
“Come here,” he demanded.
Taking a deep breath, I got up and walked slowly in his direction until I was standing in front of him. He stepped forward, placing his large soft hands on each side of my face wiping my tears away. Aspen pulled me into his arms and that’s when I let everything out. He held me tight until my sobs subsided. Not once did he say a word as he rubbed my back and rested his chin on the top of my head. I felt his soft kisses against my temple bringing me a sense of comfort and love.
“I got you, baby. You know that,” he whispered in my ear. “Make this last time you shed a tear over that nigga. Yeen gotta tell me just yet what’s going on but I know he did something but that’s neither here nor there. My concern is you and lil man. Whatever you need I got you and whatever you want I got that too. Now that I’m here you ain’t gotta worry about a thing.”
“Aspen,” I sighed. “I don’t even know where to begin. I feel like such a fool for not listening to you and Deshawn. Y’all warned me about him, now look at me. Back home with a car full of shit and a divorce wavering over my head.”
“Fuck that nigga, Destinee! I ain’t never liked his ass and you know it. Since he got you crying he gotta see and feel me anyway and that’s a promise. The way you feel about Torian is the way I feel about him.” My body shuddered knowing how protective he still was about me. His jaw was clenched, eyes dark as coal, and his fists were balled up too. Placing my hands on his hard chest seemed to calm him down. He looked down at me with his lip turned up.
“Only you can make me feel like a soft ass,” he chuckled and shook his head. “Don’t even belong to me and got me ready to go to war over you. If that don’t tell you how much I love you then I don’t know what will.”
