Surprise, surprise
POVMia “Hey, Millie!” I say giving her a hug. My eyes go straight to..X?I’m lost. When did they..? Whatever..I can’t even keep up with those two anymore. X’s sour ass face changes when he catches my eye, relaxing and allowing all the blood that’s rushed to his face to lighten up by the second. “Oh, hey Mia,” X says running his fingers through his dark brown hair. I give him a friendly smile, he can suck a fat one for what he did to Millie. I have jack squat of any idea about what has been happening the last couple of weeks since Steph became a housewife, I’m so out of the loop. Until I know how this fucker ended up here, he’s on my shit list…obv just in my mind though..he is my boss after all. “Sorry Mia, I just wanted to show X my apartment real quick he’s leaving now,” Millie says grabbing X by the bicep and pushing him out the door. Mhm..“Wait..what?” X asks confused. “Yeah, I’ll call you,” she says pushing him out and closing the door in his face. “Woo sorry about t

Frozen in the red
POVMillie “I’m surprised it took you this long to grill me,” I say looking over to Mia as we walk to her car. “Yeah well you looked a little distressed so I figured I’d hold off,” Mia says lightly pushing at my shoulder. “It’s been a lot lately..” I say running my fingers through my hair, only making it like four inches through before hitting a tangle halting my motion. We make it to her car and get it. It’s so overheated in here I instantly sweat. The heat of June is overwhelming but at the same time, I love it. I love the warmth of summer but at the same time, I absolutely hate the month of June. June 22nd. June 22nd is less than two weeks ago. It’s a Wednesday this year. 12 days away. It’ll be four years since I lost my role model, my guiding light, my best friend, and my one and only hand-picked by god, mother. I pray this year I don’t go into my week-long, stay in bed, don’t eat, cry myself to sleep depressive state. “Millie, you with me?” Mia asks glancing over and

Desperate decisions
POVXI can’t believe she just kicked me out like that. It was kinda fun fucking with her and watching her get all heated up to make me leave, especially since she invited me over. What can I say, I love a psycho. Was she embarrassed to be seen with me around Mia?Ahh fuck it, I got my girl back and I don’t give two shits what anyone thinks, Millie though, does. Don’t know why..but she does. When I get back to my house, everything just seems lighter, I don’t know how to describe it, it just effin does. The dark cloud that lingered over my head, over my house, and everywhere I went feels as though it has vanished and everything now seems…better? More vibrant I guess? I walk into the house and this time I don’t hate everyone’s face. Well, I don’t hate their faces as much as I did previously. When I make it upstairs to my place, I go into my office to call Marco. He picks up after a few rings. “My man,” he says through the line. “Yo, Marco, any update on a replacement? I really n

Images of him
POV MillieFuck…I scoot myself back into the aisle before she sees me. I pretend to be checking out a set of porcelain plates so the other woman sharing the aisle with me doesn’t mentally question my sanity.I quietly glance over her way. Who is she with? Is that…no…Adria? I get a side profile of the girl but it’s not Adria, just some girl that resembles her, the same sleek long black hair, around the same size but not her. Thank god! I could not handle the both of them right now, not doubled up ready to chew me out and spit me back out. Not here. I wait until they’re out of sight to move out of the aisle. That was a close one..I get my groceries, looking around here and there to make sure I don’t have an awkward run-in situation with them. Luckily, by the time I make it to the check-out lane, I see them walking out of the door. I can finally relax again, that is until the cashier tells me my total. Jesus Christ, what did I even buy?! Ugh, whatever, it’s all shit I need. I

The warehouse
POVXIt’s now Saturday morning and I got next to no sleep last night. Marco sent me the two details about the girl that's gonna start working for me.Dani. She’s 29. And yep that’s all I know so far. When Marco and I got off the phone last night, he called her and she agreed to work for me. She’s coming by on Monday to go over shit and I guess we’ll see what happens from there. I don’t know if I should tell Millie yet or not. I mean I already have two girls that work for me, Nicoletta, previously Adria’s bff or whatever, and Jade. Can’t stand Nicoletta for obvious reasons but also can’t afford to let her go either. She’s quiet enough I guess, and hasn’t stirred up any shit in a while. Jade, Jade is a good one. Doesn’t get herself into trouble, never goes to the club, just does her job, and lives her life not bothering anyone. She’s so much to herself that I don’t even think Millie knows of her. Dani…please be like Jade. I text Julian letting him know about the newcomer and t

Night of nerves
POVMillie Woo, okay, I look around and this place is looking a little better, a little more me. I spent all morning and early afternoon decorating and cleaning this place. I removed the dark maroon floor-length drapes from the living room window, so much brighter in here now. I set up the lamps, hung a couple of pictures, placed a few fake plants throughout the house, put the couch cover on, which was a son of a bitch to do, and put on the cute little throw pillows. It’s much more homey now. It still needs a lot of sprucing up but in time, I’ll get it all done. I’m sweating bullets from scrubbing the hell out of the floors, walls, and honestly just everything in every corner. I’m a combination of gross and concoction of cleaning solutions embedded into my hands. I need a shower before going to X’s. I undress out of my shorts and tank top in the bathroom and step into the shower. “Holy shit!” I scream out at the feel of ice-cold water. Why in the hell is the cold and hot opposi

Not over it
POVMillie X walks away towards the bedroom leaving me to go back into mental overdrive again. It could be nothing, right?He comes back out, sinfully covered up with a black shirt on now. He walks over to the kitchen pulling something out of a drawer. Oh. The famous joint..“Ready?” He asks placing the joint at the top of his ear. I don’t respond I just nod and follow him out the door. We remain voiceless for the walk down to the beach. The silence is killing me but I can’t seem to form words with my seized vocal cords. X sits down on the sand and I sit beside him anxiously awaiting for what he needs to tell me. “You’re breaking up with me aren’t you?” I ask, going from seized vocal cords to on-fire ones. He quickly looks over to me with a seriously confused expression, “What?! No!” He shakes his head, “You thought this whole time I was going to break up with you?” “Well..I dunno, maybe, yeah.” I say with a lack of confidence, I mean what was I supposed to think? I always go

Haunted by the dead
POV XWell, that went…the way I expected it to if I’m really being honest with myself. I can’t believe she thought I was going to break up with her, fuck no. I know I ruined her night, her whole demeanor changed after I told her but what was I supposed to do? I want to be transparent with her even if it makes her uncomfortable, it’s better than the alternative, I learned that the hard way. My phone buzzes on my nightstand right as I’m pulling away my black comforter to climb in for the night. It’s JulianYo, surprise birthday party for my lady Friday night at the club. Me: ok Is Millie going to this? She fucking hates the club.. but I know she’d do anything for Stephanie so she's probably going and she’ll just conceal her misery the whole time. That’s my girl though, always thinking of everyone else’s happiness before hers. …It’s now Monday morning. My Sunday was spent sleeping in, working out, drinking too much for my own good, and working for hours on end per usual. Texted

It’s happening
POVMillie The week has gone by fast, it’s already Friday morning. One more work day and it’s the weekend, oh, and Steph’s party tonight. I met with Mia twice this week to go over Steph’s birthday party. It doesn’t really seem like it’ll be too different from any other weekend club night except for maybe some birthday banners, a huge cake, and the DJ will play all of Steph’s favorite songs. Pretty much everyone in the house is invited and I hope no one has spilled the beans on tonight. I’m beyond excited to see X tonight. We’ve texted all week but I haven’t seen him since Saturday, the night he revealed a new girl is coming to work for him. I’m still uneasy about the whole thing but really, what can I do? This will either rebuild my trust in him or make it crumble. We haven’t talked about it since and the less I hear of her from him the better. That won’t stop me from asking Steph all about it tonight though. I wonder if she feels the same way about it as me or if I’m just being an

Unwanted invitations
POV XI’ve already hung out with Dani a few times this week. She’s cool, just a friend, nothing more. She’s like one of the guys, she talks sports, drinks like a man, shit-talks us guys, has a garbage mouth and if she told me she liked women I wouldn’t bat an eye in surprise. Best part, she seems to have no interest in me. Had this been months ago, I’d be offended but I’m not, I’m relieved. Stephanie’s party is tonight and I’m counting the minutes until I can see Millie. It’s been way too fucking long of a week without her. I’ve never gone this long without seeing her, even when we weren’t together. I miss her more than I even like to admit to myself. I don’t even want to go to this party tonight, I just want to kidnap my girl and lock her away in the penthouse with me all night long. Julian should be here soon to get ready for Stephanie’s party because he got kicked out of his own place because it’s going to be overtaken by crazy women. Kicked out or voluntary, I wouldn’t want to
