Euphoria

Jealous

As Bria pulled away breathless, she stares into Adonis' eyes and places her hand on the side of his cheek pulling him in once more to peck his lips before thanking the waitress who was back with their drinks. Adonis chuckled, pulling back to take a sip of his beer and watches her face turn up in disgust at the smell of the malt liquor. She could feel her stomach getting queasy and scrunches her nose up him as he took a swig of his beer. He looked at her weirdly and put the bottle down after taking a swig and watches her shift uncomfortably in her seat.

"Is everything okay?" He asks, observance of the way her face started to loose its color as if she were sick.

"Babe?" He asks her again.

She then looks up at him hesitant to respond and covers her mouth, rushing trying to find the nearest bathroom. Adonis sighs and picks up the beer bottle in hand and places it back down on the table before sliding out of the booth to follow her to the restroom.

Bria

Of course, today of all days my hypersensitive nose and stomach would react towards the smell of alcohol on date night, and here I was crouching over a public restroom toilet regurgitating whatever I ate from dinner. I felt disgusting but knew I had to thug out the first trimester of my pregnancy and hoped that it would get easier once I built up a strong enough tolerance later on in my pregnancy. After I was finished puking my guts out I flushed the toilet and walked out of my stall slowly, still a bit nauseated but well enough to walk out now. As I washed my hands and rinsed my mouth out with pocket mouthwash I looked up at myself in the mirror and fixed up myself trying to look well enough again before returning back to Adonis.

The moment that I walked out of the women's bathroom, Adonis grabbed ahold of me pulling me in closer towards him. He looked worried, and lifted his hand up to brush the side of my cheek to move my hair out of the way so he could place a sweet tender kiss on it expressing his affection for me. I smiled bashfully, looking up into his eyes as he parted his lips to ask if I was okay.

"How are you feeling?" Adonis asked, concerned about her well being.

"I honestly feel like shit and I'm sorry I know you really love this establishment but the smell of alcohol just really sets my stomach off." Bria pouted, placing bets hands on his chest.

Adonis looked at me with understanding and nodded his head. As a few staff members walked by us, they took notice to the famous boxer and gasped as they were working, shocked that he would be here. A few club goers stood off to the side recognizing him, waiting for the perfect opportunity to ask him for a photo. He looked past me and could see people were watching and holding their cell phones out in their hand taking pictures and videos of us. He bent down towards the side of me and talked low in my ear.

"Let me just greet a few fans okay? I shouldn't be that long." Adonis said, and kissed my cheek before walking off to greet some of his fans.

Most of his fans were women who walked up to him eager to take a photo and cop a feel of his biceps. He was kind to them and listened to their stories about watching his fights or when they first found out about the famed boxer. He took a few photos with fans lined up ready to meet him but as he was interacting with them ever so often he would look up at me to see if I was okay while all the attention was on him. I stood proudly, watching him converse with them because he didn't have to greet them but he did. After taking a group photo with the staff he then walked over to where I was and snaked his arm around my shoulder, pulling me into his chest and placed a kiss on my forehead as we started to walk towards the front entrance to meet our driver.

The following morning I was persistent in seeing his mother again eager to get to know her even though she didn't quite fancy me because of the way her son and I met. Adonis agreed that we could go see her again today but unlike the first time I met her I knew what to expect and braced myself for whatever reaction came from his mother. As the driver pulled up to the front entrance of his family's estate I took in the view and tried not to be intimidated by how much money his family had and sat back in my seat until the driver came to a complete stop. Adonis looked over towards me and placed his hand on my lap, leaning in to kiss me. I smiled at his small gesture and exhaled slowly bracing myself for what was to come.
