challenge
Chris sat in his Jacuzzi tub. She
had just left him again. He tried to rationalize what was the basis of what
they were doing. It had started so long ago. She was lonely and needed a man.
She was not getting the comforting ease she wanted her friends to be. She
wanted someone to lean on when times got hard when it felt like she had the
weight of the world on her shoulders. He could understand that. It is natural
for humans to want another human's touch. He could not understand why she chose
him. Under normal circumstances the nights are empty and cold but when you add
traveling to it makes it unbearable. She was looking for someone to hold and
that's natural. Out of all the men she could chose, why did it have to be him?
Chris enjoyed the water as it
swirled around him. He couldn't just blame it on her. he
was lonesome and blue. He reached for his washcloth and realized
no one could help it. He washed her scent off of him and then it hit him. She
said she loved him. He shook his head. It was a little love affair. That lasted
longer than either one of them expected. Chris expected when her true one returned
she would forget about him. He knew it
was better that way. He would not want to force her to have to place her heart
in a difficult position. He was thinking of how to make her forget him.
Chris laughed as he thought of her
track record with men. They were just toys to her that she used in her game.
She normally kept them two months before she grew tired and threw them away.
There was he and her true one. But that's natural, right. That was her life,
she used something up then she would receive something new. Given this, why as
he someone she wanted to hold onto? Chris toweled off and realized that he had
fallen in love with her. But hell she only monopolized his time enough for it
to happened so quickly. It was only natural that it happened
but she could have had anyone so why did it have to be him.
Chris moved to place on his pajama
pants. He suddenly got those feelings again. He was feeling lonesome and blue.
He wanted to call her but he knew the rules. He wanted it to be her and him. He
thought he knew he only wanted a little love affair. But somewhere down the
line something happened that changed what he wanted completely. He began to
care. Chris stopped his processing as his cell phone rang. Her ring tone had
become Rich Girl. He didn't say anything... he just listened. She sighed before
saying, "He's pissed me of. I need to spend tonight with you." Chris
used to question. He used to protest that they would be found out. All that
thinking cased as he opened the door and met her brown orbs. Stephanie stepped
inside and kissed his cheek. Chris thought why not me?
