New Flame

Chapter 14

Next Morning

Chris's P.O.V I Woke Up Carefully Getting Out Of Aayliah's Bed Not Waking Her Up I Saw Her Move A Lil When I Got Up But She Fell Right Back To Sleep So I Went Downstairs & Went Into The Kitchen & Decided I'm Gonna Surprise Aayliah With Some Breakfast In Bed.. Might Make Her Feel Better Cuz Poor Girl Was Crying Her Eyes Out Most Of The Night So I Figured Anything To Cheer Her Up... I Quietly Grabbed A Frying Pan, Some Eggs, Bread, Pancake Mix & All The Ingredients I Needed To Make The Pancakes.. I Was Just Bout To Start Cooking When I Heard Someone Knocking On The Door So I Went & Looked In The Peep Hole & Saw It Was Mimi.. I Unlocked The Door & Opened It & She Turned Around & Saw Me Standing There

"Uh Chris What You Doing Here? I Tried Texting Aayliah But She Never Texted Me Back" She Said Kind Of Confused As To Why I Was Opening Aayliah's Door

"Sorry She Fell Asleep Last Night That's Why She Didn't Text You Back But Come In & I'll Explain What Happened" I Said Stepping Aside To Let Her In

She Walked In & Sat Down On One Of The Island Chairs While I Made Breakfast "So What Happened? Is Aayliah Okay?" She Asked A Lil Worried

"She's Fine We Were Having A Good Time We Went To The Carnival In Santa Monica & That Douce Bag Showed Up" I Clinched My Jaw While Whipping Up The Pancake Batter

"Who?" She Had A Confused Look But Saw I Was Upset

"Michael" I Growled A Lil Running My Tongue On The Inside Of My Cheek Stirring The Mixture Till It Was All Blended & Poured A Lil In The Frying Pan Keeping An Eye On When To Flip Them Over

"What The Fuck! He's Always Around I Swear I Never Liked His Ass When I First Met Him When They Were Together" She Rolled Her Eyes As She Said That

"Yeah I'm Starting Not To Like Him Either But She Was So Hurt That She Asked Me To Stay Since I'm Guessing Justice Outta Town" I Flipped The Pancakes Over & Started Scrambling Eggs

"Well That Was Nice Of You Chris I'm Sure She Appreciated That" She Smiled "You Like Her Don't You?"

"I Mean She's An Amazing Woman & Even With Her Past, She Holds Herself Very Well" I Smiled & Then Realized I Just Admitted To Her Best Friend I Like Aayliah Wow I'm Falling Down But In A Good Way

"Yeah She A Tough Cookie But I Was Just Stopping By But Since She's Not Awake Can You Have Her Call Me When She Gets Up Or Later? Oh & Tell Her Scheduled Changed & Shes Got The Day Off" She Got Up From The Island Seat Grabbing Her Purse Off The Bar

"Yeah I Can Do That Mimi But You Sure You Don't Wanna Stay For Breakfast?" I Asked Putting The Eggs & Toast On A Plate

"Yeah I'm Sure I'm Meeting Up With Alex For Breakfast" Minute She Mentioned Alex A Smile Came Across Her Face

"Oh Alex Huh" I Chuckled "How You & My Boy Doing Y'all Definitely Hit It Off At The Club The Night Of My Performance

"Yeah He's A Sweetheart Kind Of Like How You Are With Aayliah But I Know What This Breakfast For Her Needs" She Pulled One Of The Roses Alex Gave Her & Handed It To Me

"What's This For?" I Was Puzzled As To Why She Gave Me A Rose

"Aayliah Loves Roses Give Her That & Watch What Happens Trust Me But I Better Get Going Don't Forget Have Her Call Me" She Walked To The Door Grabbing Her Keys

"I Won't I'll Tell Her To Call You Later I Promise" I Waved Bye & Finished Putting Things On The Tray

"Thanks Chris Bye" She Said & Walked Out
