"I missed you." Felicia kissed me on the cheek. "Did I come at a bad time?"
"No, not at all."
"Can I come in?"
"I’m sorry. Of course you can come in." I stepped aside and closed the door behind her. "I’m just surprised, that’s all. Have a seat. Can I offer you something?"
"No I’m fine. Nice place, mind if I look around?"
"No, be my guest."
Felicia wandered around the apartment with her hands on her hips. Lookin’ over her shoulder to see if I was watching. Which I was. She swung her hips harder and I smiled. "What you smiling about?" she asked as she walked past me.
"Just happy to see you, Felicia. What made you come back here anyway?"
"You did."
"I did?"
"Yes, you, Nick."
"How did I do that?"
"Two ways. First, I missed you and I wanted to be with you." She went into the kitchen. She looked impressed. It was clean for a change, thanks to Monika. She came out. "Seems you got a me a little dick whipped."
Felicia wandered into the bedroom.
"Nice bed," she said and came back out, carefully closing the door and tapping the doorknob. Felicia turned around and came toward me. "And second, you gave me a shot of your courage. So I decided to come back and face things head on, you know, take a more proactive approach to this thing."
"Well, it’s pretty much over."
"You solved the case?" Felicia’s face lit up. She was excited for me. I thought that was sweet of her.
"Nope." Man I was diggin’ her. Look at her eyes, her smile. I took a step closer to Felicia. "Cops found Jake’s dead body a couple of days ago."
"Oh really."
"Yes really. Cops searched here and my office last night. They found the formula and the analysis of that synthetic crack. So I’m done with it."
"That means you’ll have some time to spend with me." She reached for my hand and squeezed it. Then she touched my face with the other hand.
She kissed me on my cheek.
She started to walk away, but I pulled her back toward me.
I touched her face and kissed her lips. It was more like I pressed my lips against hers. I started to walk away but she pulled me back toward her and she kissed me. Believe me, it was more fun this time. I liked it and I wanted more.
She kissed me again.
We stood awkwardly looking at each other for what seemed like a long time. And then, almost at the same time, we both started taking off our clothes. I felt the vibration of my pager, but I didn’t seem to care.
Friday July 24: 1:17AM
When I woke up, it was past one in the morning. I looked at Felicia; she was out for the count. I got up and put on my pants, and once again, I felt the vibration of my pager. I checked the number, "Monika." It was late but I called anyway.
"This is Detective Richards."
"I’m sorry, wrong number." And I hung up quickly. What was Richards doin’ there? I called again.
