A/N As you ladies know, my partner and I have been MIA for quite some time now and I just wanted to jump back in the game for a bit. I really miss writing here and expressing my hidden thoughts in general. I reread a few one shots to give myself a few ideas on where to pick uo at. This was the first one shot that I ever wrote on this particular blog so I figured why not continue where I started from! Enjoy my LT ladies. (Btw I got married in May whoop whoop!!!)
“Hey babe!” Larry’s voice sang through the other end of the reciever. “I can’t wait to see you again.”
“I knooow.” Mya whined from her end. “I can’t believe it’s been almost 3 years- and you know you can’t really call me babe anymore, right?” She listened as he let out a small chuckle after what seemed like a full minute of silence.
“Why can’t you just go with it though? He finally asked.
“Well, let’s see.” She began.
“Oooh non, here we go.” He groaned.
“Yes, here we go. “ She mocked. “I went with it the first time you cheated on me, didn’t I?”
“Mya PLEASE, this not why I call.”
“Oh no, but you asked why I can’t just go with it. So, did I not go with it then? What about the second or third time until I decided not to cry over you anymore and left. You didn’t hesitate to go with it then.” The line went silent for what seemed like forever.
“Listen…” Larry began “ I am so sorry about how things ended between us. I’m so sorry for ever hurting you. I tell you this now over the phone but I really wanted to see you and tell you in person so you can really know I mean it. Can I please see you soon?
“I don’t know, Larry.” Mya let out a long sigh. You know I have a busy schedule and yours is even busier. I’m sure that when I’m free you won’t be so let’s not even try this.”
“No Mya, I will be in the U.S for two weeks so I will have time for nothing but you.”
“Are you sure? Because the last time you gave all your time to those other girls. How are they by the way, any of them still around?”
Larry let out a bitter scoff before he even tried to answer.
“You know they not around anymore and I dont’t want them to be here with my anymore.”
“Well who do you want with you?”
There was yet another short silence on the line before either of them even let a breath of air be heard. The phone conversations they’d had over the past few months grew slightly longer each time. Of course they both missed each other but their time was up and they simply moved on.
“Just…can I see you soon?” Larry finally asked.
“Yeah… I guess.” Mya sighed.
“When?” He abruptly asked.
“Uuum, let me check my schedule really quick.”
“Today?! That’s entirely too soon, Larry. I’m not even home and won’t be back until la-“
She was cut off by a knock on the bay window of her living room where she lay lazily across the couch still in her pajamas with her locks pulled back into me messy ponytail. She watched out of the window like a dear caught in headlights as Larry waved at her with the huge bunny grin that she used to fall for every time and it was beginning to get to her even now.
She hopped up from the couch and nearly sprinted all too happily to the hallway leading to the front door before stopping to look in the large hanging mirror. She fixed her hair and straighten her clothes before opening the door where he waited.
The cologne he wore was nothing she’d ever smelled on him before. It was like a mix of Egyptian musk and something else that was just heavenly and devine. He wore a simple white button down long tailed shirt with the sleeves pushed back to his elbows. A pair of cargo pants ,black Jordans and his hair twisted and pulled back into a ponytail.
“Bonjour.” He chimed with a slight smile that showed his beautifully white teeth.
“H-hi!” Mya stammered almost a little too excitedly. “Uh, what are you doing here?” She nervously brushed away a strand of hair from her face that wasn’t even there.
“I come to see you, Belle. How are you?” He tilted his head slightly to the side and gave her the most innocent smile.
“Don’t try to charm me, Bourgeois, I know your moves and they don’t work on me anymore.” She gave him a mocking smile.
“Not all of them.” He teased.
“Come on in.” She stepped aside to allow him entrance.
Mya had to remind herself to keep her nerves and her lady parts under control as he walked past and gave her thigh a slight brush with his fingers.
She swatted his hand away before closing the door. “Keep your hands to yourself, my boyfriend wouldn’t appreciate that one bit.”
“Oh! Your ‘boyfriend’?” Larry asked with no general interest or surprise present as he gave himself a tour around her living room. “Well, where this ‘boyfriend’ of yours, Mya?” He then made himself entirely too comfortable on the couch and waited for her answer.
“He’s at work.” She crossed her arms as Larry looked her up and down assessing the goods that used to be his.
“What time does he get off?”
“What does it matter? You’ll be gone before he gets home anyways.”
Larry let out a long rolling chuckle while shaking his head at her.
“What’s so funny?” Mya asked half annoyed.
“Why?” The annoyance in her voice starting to show.
“You don’t have a boyfriend.”
“Oh so just because you say something makes it true now, huh?”
Larry continued to laugh through Mya’s growing anger.
“Non, but I know is not true because I don’t see pictures.” Larry waved his hand around the living room to point out the bare walls.
“I know you, you love pictues. These walls used to be full of us. AND I only see your shoes by the front door. AND you wouldn’t have talked to me lately if you were with someone. AND you would’ve mentions him before. AND_”
“OK! Damn… so, I’m single right now but that doesn’t mean anything for you. Alright you’ve seen me now what?”
“And why does it?” Mya gave him a sharp side eye from the spot she still stood in.
“You still single because you know Daddy was coming home.” He bit down on his bottom lip, the one thing that would get her blood pumping without him even having to touch her. He moved from his seat on the couch and stood in front of her, towering over her 5’8 frame.
She attempted to take a step backwards but he caught her around the waist. Her breath caught in her throat and her heart threatened to jump from her chest and he slowly leaned down and was just inches- no milimeters from her face. She felt herself begin to throb as she thought about what this man used to do to her and it was killing her.
“What are you-“ Mya began.
“Shhhhh.” He shushed her. “I know you miss me and I miss you…so much. No one could ever take your place. Come with me tonight.”
“Where?” She said just above a whisper.
“On a date… like old times. Please.” He said in the sexiest deep tone she’d ever heard. “I can pick you up at 7:30. Oui?”
“Ok.” She said while still gazing into his eyes. Her look was almost practically begging for him to screw her right then and there and all would be forgiven. But he instead removed his arm from her waist and gave her a small peck on the forehead.
Without another word he showed himself out while Mya stood motionless. Her breath still adjusting and her thoughts flustered. It took her about a full minute to regain her composure. He had only come in for all of 5 minutes and already had her feeling some type of way.
“What the fuck?” She breathed. “How the hell?” She ran her fingers through her locks as she replayed what had just happened. “Damn!” She let her body drop to the couch as she she took a moment to fully assess the situation.
This is honstly what she had been waiting for, he was right and she hated him for it. When they began talking again she already knew which way this was headed. She did in fact break up with her boyfriend after the first phone conversation she’d had with Larry after almost two years. She thought things had just run their course with him until now. NOW she knew why she did it. Because Daddy was coming home.
