Page 80 of I Saved Him Too

“Bitch, you better not be laughing!”

“I’m sorry, but what is the big deal?” I ask, still laughing. I’m not surprised Ash would do something so drastic just to get Tia to act crazy, but also to make her smile again after everything that happened.

“The big deal is that—”

“Hey, Curly Sue,” Ash says over the line.

“Hi, Ash.”

“Your girl here is just pissed because I took her while she was taking a shit.”

“I was NOT taking a shit! Give me my goddamn phone!” Tia screams in the background. I hear a shuffling sound.

Ash’s boisterous laugh rings through my ears.

“I wish those two would just fuck already,” Donnie mutters.

“Sadie!” Tia says when she finally gets her phone back. “He shows up at my school and follows me into the bathroom—”

“She’s mad because I saw the little mole on her sweet ass.” Ash laughs.

Donnie groans as if that was TMI.

“Sadie!” Tia hisses. “I was taking a piss, and he stood over the stall. Who the fuck does that?”

“Tia, we’ll meet you at Francisco’s,” I laugh, holding my stomach, and hang up on her.

“Those two really need to get their heads out of their asses,” Donnie says, taking my hand and leading me out of the room.

He’s not wrong.

Dancing in the rain

DONOVAN

The lightning and heavy rain wakes me from a deep sleep. After a while, the rain slows to a gentle tap on the window, and the rhythm is like music. The sound is so pleasant that I could have fallen asleep, but then a memory flashes.

I toss the covers off and swing my legs over the bed. I slip on my shirt and creep down to Shorty’s room. I hate that she’s not in my bed where she’s supposed to be.

I find Shorty facing the window, asleep with Sophie in her arms.

I could stand here forever and watch her sleep, but I need to wake her before the rain stops.

I gently pick Sophie up and put her back in the crib. I walk over to Shorty, leaning over her. I close my eyes and inhale her fruity scent.

“Shorty, wake up,” I whisper in her ear.

She mumbles something incoherent but doesn’t wake up.

I let out a deep chuckle.

“Baby, I need you to get up.”

She stirs, causing the sheet to fall to her mid-thighs, giving me a perfect view of her lacy red panties. I groan in frustration, lust making my balls ache.

“Wh-what time is it?” Shorty looks at me, confused. I give her a warm smile and kiss her on the cheek.

“Just a little after midnight.”
