  “Yes, I am, actually,” she responded.

  The energy in the room was tight, and I could tell her mind was elsewhere. I needed to lighten the mood, so I popped open a bottle of Moscato and pressed play on the DVD player to Martin Lawrence standup show called You So Crazy. Jewel hadn’t laughed in a long time, and I was hoping a glass of wine and comedy could fix that.

  “Thank you,” she said as I handed her the glass of wine.

  Minutes later as I was putting the finishing touches on dinner, I heard her laughing. Then I served her my beloved chicken stir fry. I kept the wine flowing and the mood light.

  It wasn’t long before I could see Jewel becoming tipsy. She had gone from uneasy to relaxed and extra giddy in under an hour.

  After dinner I took Jewel to the balcony. The cool breeze of the night air was perfect. We looked in into the sky and admired the full moon and countless stars in the sky. I couldn’t have painted a more romantic sky. I was feeling relaxed and happy with her.

  “Misty, thank you for being there for me. A big dose of laughter and a little pampering was just what I needed.” Jewel then downed the last bit of wine in her glass.

  “You’re welcome, baby. Anything for you.” I nodded as I ran my fingers through her hair. I knew I was taking a chance of blowing it, but it just seemed like the right time. The whole night seemed like it was leading up to this.

  Damn! My nipples became hard instantly. I’d waited so long for this moment.

  Jewel didn’t resist, so I kept doing it over and over again. Eventually she tilted her head back, and I kissed her passionately. We stayed out on the balcony kissing and caressing each other. The breeze blowing between us added another layer of sensuality.

  I needed to feel Jewel’s skin next to mine, so I led her back into the room and gently slipped off her maxi dress. I massaged her feet and rubbed her whole body down. Jewel dozed in and out of sleep, with intermittent moans.

  I moved from her feet and began massaging her legs. Then I moved up to her thighs. Jewel let out a gentle sigh when she realized my fingers had moved to her clit. I continued to massage it up and down with my fingers.

  “I love your beautiful breasts,” I whispered in her ear. I started sucking the nipple of her plump right breast.

  By this time Jewel was soaking wet. I continued to massage her clit back and forth. This time, it was with my tongue while I reached up and gently caressed her breasts. I couldn’t believe this was finally happening. Even in my best dreams, it was never this good. Jewel was sexier in person than she was in my fantasy.

  It didn’t take long before she had cum in my mouth and I was savoring the taste of her juices. I wasn’t finished giving pleasure to Jewel. I kissed her sensually before I whispered in her ear, “Just lay back, baby. I’m not done with you yet.”

  I reached into the bedside table and pulled out my strap-on dildo. After adjusting it around my waist, I pulled her legs up and pushed it inside.

  “Hmm!” Jewel sighed again.

  “Jewel, I love you so much. Please, let me make you mine,” I cooed in her ear as my deep thrusts kept coming.

  We made love over and over for hours. It was beyond all of my expectations. I was now fully in love with Jewel. I stroked her hair as she slept soundly after our lovemaking. As I stared at her, I knew what I had to do next. In order to keep all of my focus on Jewel, I had to end it with Jamie immediately. Jewel was the most important thing in my life.

  Jewel spent the night with me, and the next morning we had a nice breakfast on the balcony. Some eggs, bacon, toast and coffee were our food of choice. I was afraid that the next morning would have been awkward, but it was totally comfortable. Jewel showered while I prepared the breakfast, and then we had a nice conversation about her future. Although I was thinking it, I didn’t ask how I was going to fit into her plans.

  I got sad when it was time for Jewel to be on her way back to DC. There was a moment when I almost asked her to stay with me, but then I talked myself out of it. I didn’t want to come on too fast and strong. I would enjoy the fact that we had one night together and make sure that there were many more.

  As soon as Jewel was out the door, I picked up the phone and called Jamie. It wasn’t a conversation I was looking forward to having, but it needed to be done, and the sooner the better.

  “Hello,” Jamie answered.

  “Jamie, it’s me, Misty.”

  “Hey, Misty! I’m so happy you called. How are you?”

  “I’m good. I was hoping we could talk.” I didn’t waste any time.

  “Of course, baby. I’ll always be here to talk whenever you want.”

  I could already tell Jamie wasn’t going to make this easy. When someone is treating you so nice, how can you just drop him? I was already feeling guilty, and I hadn’t even told Jamie it was over before it even started. I knew I was going to have to stay strong and stick to my guns if I was going to make the break.

  “I want to talk about us. I think—”

  “I think we make a great pair. Our first go-around was just a trial. I’m ready for this. For you and me.”

  “Well, you may feel that, but–”

  “Hey, Misty, hold on one second. I have another call coming in.” Jamie switched over to the other line without even waiting for me to give him permission.

  As I listened to the silence on the other end, I started to rehearse what I was about to say when Jamie came back. The only problem was, everything I was rehearsing sounded stupid. After a few attempts to figure out exactly what to say, I gave up. I was going to have to just go with whatever came out and deal with Jamie’s reaction.

  Once I stopped my rehearsal, I realized I had been on hold for a while, and it started to aggravate me. Why was I holding for so long with someone I was about to dump? I hung up and went to the bedroom to dress for the day.

  When I got to the bedroom I noticed that Jewel had left her panties behind. I quickly grabbed them up off the floor and shoved them into my nose. I inhaled her sweet scent, and memories of the previous night flooded my mind. I instantly went right back between Jewel’s legs. Just as I was starting to play with my pussy, the phone rang and shocked me out of my memory.

  “Hello,” I answered in an agitated tone.

  “Hey, it’s me. Sorry I was on the other line for so long. There’s an emergency at work, and I was trying to solve it over the phone. Looks like I have to go in and deal with it. Can we meet up later to discuss us?”

  I really didn’t want to meet face to face with Jamie. It would be easier for me to end it over the phone, but I just wanted to get back to tending my pussy, so I agreed. I knew, whether over the phone or in person, Jamie wasn’t going to take this well.

  “Text me the time and place, and I’ll be there,” I said.

  “Will do,” Jamie replied, sounding chipper.

  “See you later.” As I was about to hang up, Jamie had one more thing to say to me.

  “Hey, Misty, I’m glad you called.” I could tell there was a smile on his face.

  Ugh! I thought. This nigga is trippin’. I wasn’t looking forward to meeting him later.

  I hung up the phone and picked up right where I had left off. My hand went directly to my clit as I lay back on the bed and closed my eyes. In an instant I was picturing Jewel between my legs, and all thoughts of Jamie had disappeared.

  Chapter 21

  Jewel

  “Wicked Realization”

  My pussy was aching, along with me feeling sick. Laying on my side didn’t help either. A wave of nausea took over. I ran to the bathroom, barely making it to the stool. I vomited so hard, it even came out of my nose. Afterward, I looked in the mirror and realized that I was naked. I cleaned myself up and slowly walked out of the bathroom, afraid of what or who I may see next. There, lying in the bed was Misty, and she was naked as well.

  Oh ,shit! What have I done? I thought to myself. I wracked my brain trying to figure it out.

  Bits and pieces of the night be
fore started to come back to me. One of the empty wine bottles was scattered on the carpet. I started to feel nervous and jittery. My hands were shaking, and my brain was racing. I just had sex with not only a woman, but a woman who happens to be in love with me. After Sasha I vowed I would never do this again. We can’t just be friends now. Misty will want more. This all happened so fast. Did Misty take advantage of me?

  I didn’t know what to think. I started getting afraid that Misty was still working with the feds, so I didn’t want to do anything to piss her off. Instead of running out of there, I stayed around and acted cool. Luckily for me, Misty didn’t move when I jumped out of bed to throw up, so I just slipped right back next to her. This time I nudged her a little bit so she would wake up.

  “Hey, Jewel,” Misty said as she wiped her eyes and stretched.

  I smiled. “Hey, yourself.”

  “Stay for breakfast?” Misty asked. It sounded like a question, but I wasn’t sure if she was telling me to stay. I decided it better to stay and try and make her happy. Hopefully this little fling would just fade away. I didn’t need no cop pissed off at me.

  “Yeah. Let me shower first.”

  “You shower, I’ll cook.” Misty put her robe on while I went to the bathroom.

  I tried acting as normal as possible throughout breakfast. Misty kept asking me about my future and what I was planning. Not wanting to give up too much, I made up some bullshit about taking night courses. I was pretty vague about the whole thing though.

  After breakfast Misty tried to get me to stay longer, but I put a stop to that. Told her I needed to get back to Shakira and take care of her daughter.

  I breathed a huge sigh of relief when I reached my car. On my way home, Misty began blowing up my cell phone. She called so many times that I shut off my phone. Driving like a bat out of hell, I rushed home.

  “Hey, Auntie Jewel, I made you a picture,” Kelly said as soon as I walked in the door.

  “Thanks, baby.” I smiled and gave her a hug.

  Shakira could see how upset I was and told her little one to go in her room and color. “Jewel, what’s going on?” she asked as soon as the coast was clear.

  “I can’t tell you. I’m too embarrassed,” I replied, crying and hiding my face.

  “Listen, there’s nothing you can tell me that I haven’t already heard. Girl, I’m all ears.”

  “Last night I went to see Misty. You know the woman that was in the restaurant staring us down? That’s her. She was following me.”

  “Yeah. So you knew her? What she following you for?”

  “She’s a friend from the past. I don’t want to go into all the details, but she was a close friend of mine, until I found out she worked for the police. Anyway, I was vulnerable because I just left Touch. I just went over there to talk, and this morning I woke up in her bed. I didn’t mean for this to happen. She is in love with me. I’m not ready for this, let alone with a woman. You know what I went through with Sasha. She even ruined our friendship. So after her, I vowed I would never go there again.”

  “I understand. You know I know more than anyone what’s it like to be vulnerable. Why don’t you take a long hot bath and get some rest? I’ll make you my home remedy soup. It can sober anyone up. Then we can figure out what you need to do. My first thought is for you to just tell Misty the truth—You ain’t feeling her or any woman, especially right now when you are trying to get your life back.”

  “How did you know I was drinking?” I said, full of shame.

  Shakira giggled. “It’s on your breath and comin’ out your skin.”

  I playfully smacked Shakira on her shoulder and went to the bathroom for a good soak. While in the hot bath, I began thinking about what Shakira had said. The thing was, I was kind of feeling Misty. She was seeming really genuine and kind to me. I couldn’t believe she was still working for the police, with the way she was acting. All of her advice had been to get away from Touch. If she was still looking to get him, she would’ve wanted me close, so I could feed her information. I just wasn’t sure if I was ready to be with a woman full time. Being a lesbian had never seemed like a lifestyle I would live.

  As I thought more and more about Misty, I kept thinking, I could really like this girl. Which scared me and confused me. The only decision I could come up with was to take it slow and not jump into anything too fast. I was going to make sure to stick to my new motto–It’s all about me and what makes me happy.

  With that thought, I closed my eyes and enjoyed the warm bath. I would deal with Misty later.

  Chapter 22

  Misty

  “It’s Over”

  As soon as I finished masturbating, I called Jewel. I needed to speak to her about Jamie. She was so strong the way she dealt with Touch that I wanted her to help me through my ordeal. I wanted her to counsel me on how she got her strength, to give me the confidence she had. When Jewel didn’t answer, I figured she either didn’t hear the phone or wasn’t able to get to it in time. I called right back, and the outcome was the same. I continued to call back to back with the same result. The last time I called, instead of ringing, it went straight to voice mail. I didn’t want to believe that she had ignored my calls, so I told myself that she must be in a poor signal area.

  I got concerned that perhaps something was wrong with Jewel. I turned on the local news station to see if there were any reports of accidents. After sitting in front of the television for an hour listening to the same stories over and over, I turned it off. I was satisfied that Jewel had not been harmed. So then why didn’t she answer? We had such a great night together, and the morning was so special. It couldn’t be that she was avoiding me.

  I didn’t have much time to stress over Jewel’s actions as Jamie texted me the address of where we were meeting. I was so consumed with thoughts of Jewel that I had completely forgotten about Jamie and our meeting. I took my time getting ready to go out, stalling for as long as I could. This was the last thing I wanted to do, but I wasn’t going to back down. I always faced my problems head on and tackled them, and I wasn’t about to change. I slung my purse over my shoulder and headed out the door, hoping it would go easy.

  Jamie was already waiting at the restaurant when I arrived, which didn’t surprise me, since I was a half an hour late. That was done on purpose to try and piss Jamie off. My new plan was to try and get him to want to break it off with me. I figured the bitchier I was, the less likely he would want to be with me.

  “Hey, sorry I’m late. I took a nap and slept a little late,” I said as I approached.

  “No problem. I’m just happy you got here. You must have really needed the extra sleep.” He smiled and went in for a hug.

  I kept my hands at my side and didn’t reciprocate his affection. Damn, that didn’t work! He was acting like it was fine to be kept waiting. This wasn’t going to be easy.

  The hostess sat us at a small booth with a nice view out the window. If I had been there with Jewel, I would have thought it to be a romantic spot, but since I was with Jamie, it was just another place to sit and eat. I saw Jamie slip the hostess some cash and give her a look. He must have requested a romantic table when he arrived and rewarded the hostess for a job well done. Jamie was pulling out all the stops to try and woo me. I was going to have to counter his politeness with some downright dirty-ass bitch.

  “This place doesn’t look very expensive,” I said as I sat down.

  “Does it matter?”

  “It just kind of shows how you think of me. Taking me to a mediocre place.” I frowned as I looked around the room.

  “Let’s go somewhere else,” he said, staying upbeat. “Wherever you want.”

  “No. I don’t feel like driving all over town. Let’s just get this over with.”

  Jamie either didn’t hear what I said or chose to ignore it. He just shrugged his shoulders and said, “Okay, whatever you want.”

  Seriously this was not the way I thought he would be reacting. I mean, I was acting disinte
rested and bored the second I met him, and he seemed immune to it. Damn, he was going to make me work for this breakup.

  “It smells funny in here. Are you wearing cologne?” I scrunched my nose and sniffed the air near Jamie.

  “I’m wearing my usual CK One.”

  “Can cologne go rotten?”

  “I don’t know.” He shrugged his shoulders again.

  Not even a direct insult was doing anything to upset him. Inside I was going crazy. I wanted this to be quick and easy and make Jamie feel like he was the one doing the breaking up. Nothing was working, but I was going to hold steady with my plan though.

  I looked at the menu and decided on a chicken salad. You know I needed to look fit for Jewel, so my diet had started. After deciding, I just sat there and stared out the window, looking as bored as I possibly could. I even sighed a few times to draw Jamie’s attention away from his menu.

  Jamie placed the menu on the table in front of him and folded his hands together. “So did you see anything you like?” he asked.

  “Yes.” I continued looking out the window.

  “Good. I’m going to have their burger and fries.”

  “Keep eating like that, you’ll get fat.”

  He chuckled. “I suppose you’re right.”

  I was now furious inside. He wasn’t getting offended by anything I was saying. What is up with this guy? Was he that in love with me that it didn’t matter what I said? I might need to rethink this situation. Maybe I should stay with this guy if he was going to let me act how I wanted. He could fund my life, and I could have Jewel on the side.

  The waitress came over and took our order, and I went directly back to looking out the window. I was now thinking about living my life with Jamie and having Jewel on the side. Could I make that work? As I was fantasizing about that life, Jamie interrupted.

  “You said earlier that you wanted to talk about us.”
