Angelo Le roux.
"May I know why my groom is drowning his sorrows in my hotel room at eleven pm." Brad asked in an amused tone. It sounded
like an easy question with probably an easy answer but I didn't know what to say...
I would rather be here than at home with Yaya whining about the colors of the wedding theme.
"As the best man, I know there is something wrong. Are you having cold feet because that's perfectly normal." He chuckled
lightly.
"Really ?" I furrowed my eyebrows adding more whiskey to my glass.
"Yes it's perfectly normal to feel like you can't do it anymore." He spoke with confidence sitting beside me.
"How would you know ? you've never been married before." I concluded taking a gulp of the bitter feeling of Hennessy.
"Oh shoot me for trying to sound smart." He rolled his eyes.
"Tell me something Angelo ?" He asked and I looked at him. He honestly looked concerned.
"Who are you inlove with ?" The question hit me like a ton of bricks cascading down my head.
"What do you mean ?" I laughed. "I'm in love with the woman I'm marrying isn't it obvious." I deadpanned looking at him like he's
an idiot but deep down we all know who is the idiot.
"It would be obvious if you would look at the woman you are marrying with the same look you give to Raina each passing
moment." He said giving me a pat on the shoulder.
"Really ? are we having this discussion right now." I faked a laugh but I knew, I wasn't fooling anyone.
"You know what i think ?" He paused. "I think you and Raina have something going on and Uh uh uh uh uh tut tut tut shhhhh
don't argue." He said shutting me up instantly.

"Raina and I have nothing going on. She is handling the wedding better than I thought she would and she even suggested we
became friends for the kids sake hell she has even moved on with her clients son....so professional." I said with genuine
thoughts but it just ended up sounding a jealous bastard which I'm not.
"I have to admit, she is a beauty." Brad said in a mesmerized tone.
"Brad are you being serious right now ?" I scoffed.
"Stop being selfish, you have been sleeping with that banging body since-" He added. "You took her innocence."
"Whatever." I grumbled, thinking about her would just give me a hard on.
"She is like beauty and the brains and that usually does not come on the same package." He said thoughtfully.
"Well I will be sure to tell her that my best friend is crushing on her, next time I see her." I said sarcastically.
"Put in some good words for me." He added and I knew he was simply trying to get under my skin and I wasn't going to allow
him.
"I sure will, that's if she actually stays more than five minutes in my presence without looking away."
"She is just trying to give you space and you should appreciate it." Brad said smiling broadly.
"You know i don't know if I'm being punished but everything that happens between us always brings back memories." I ran my
hand through my hair. "You know the stories you told at lunch, well I remember telling her the same stories after I fucked her a
lifetime ago."
"How was i supposed to know you two use to serenade each other with college stories after playing hide my sausage." I instantly
laughed.
"Brad stop with the sarcasm, this isn't the time." I chuckled taking a swig straight from the bottle of whiskey.
"I forgot to say no pun intended." He said playfully punching my shoulder.
"Right. That was definitely pun intended." I chuckled shaking my head.
"Now I'm being serious. What is going on between you and Raina ?" Brad still insisted.

"Absolutely nothing. I haven't fucked her since four months ago." I let out a sigh because I'm sexually frustrated, of course
Yasmine and I get on it everyday even twice a day but I'm not satisfied.
"Whaat ? Four months ago and you have been with Yaya for-" i cut him off.
"A year now." I shrugged.
"I knew something was going on.." He gave him a betrayed look.
"Look Brad, i just needed to get her out of my system." I gave a dumb excuse.
"Oh right did it work ?" He rolled his eyes.
"Uhm no." I admitted feeling defeated. "Does witchcraft exist because I really feel like I have been bewitched." that only earned
me endless laughter from Bradley Murray.
"Now I understand why you couldn't stop eye raping her ? I felt like someone needed to remind you that your fianc??e is the one
on your right hand side not the one who was sitted opposite you with her boyfriend." He added emphasis on the word boyfriend.
"I get it." I said desperately wanting the conversation to end.
"I just hope you are not making a mistake because this is your life Angelo, jokes aside. You are getting married and you need to
get it together."
"How do I do that because I will be seeing her for the rest of my life. She has this effect on me or rather on my dick." I sighed.
"I think she has that effect on everyone with a Dick." Brad said absent-mindly.
"I hate her boyfriend, i can't help it."
- he probably squeezes her butt the way I use to. Touching what is supposedly mine.
"Angelo, you are something else buddy." Brad said giving my shoulder a pat.
"Do you believed in polygamy ? because right now is a situation where that's the only option."
"What? No! I can't take two wives that's just insane." I couldn't believe he had just suggested that.

"Oh you and your dick will need to learn how to have self control around her." He chuckled.
"She is in my head and I hate it. She is driving me nuts with her short glances; she can't even look me in the eye. I moaned her
name while fucking Yaya the other day and I know she heard me. She just doesn't want to bring it up." I confessed.
"Are you sure ? you are okay." He said in a amused tone.
"I'm fine, I just-" i was cut off.
"Trust me sleeping with her again is not going to get her out of your system. That's just your excuse to have your cake and eat
it." He seemed serious now.
"Have you once thought about how much you have hurt this girl because trust me...I saw the pain her eyes whenever she broke
eye contact with you." I had to admit, I have hurt her in so many ways and I'm still selfish enough to use her for sex.
"You need to get yourself together, you both deserve happiness and you are toxic to each other. You need to let whatever you
had go. Let her go." He paused. "I know you will probably deny the fact that there was alot of emotions when you two were
together. She loved you and you treated her like a prostitute whom you paid for services through trips around the world. It's safe
to say that Raina and Angelo dated for two years but didn't have a title to it." He concluded.
"You took her to Paris. You bought her gifts. You didn't always fuck her, you made love to her. You took her to dinner dates with
your parents, your family. You took her places. You made her feel special. You took her to the movies for fucks sake Angelo you
even have a tattoo of her...tut tut tut don't think I didn't notice." I was dumbfounded.
"You are basically getting over someone whom you don't want to admit you had feelings for." I didn't have to say anything
because it felt to right. It was true maybe i did have feelings for her.
"How ?" I questioned.
"Raina means Queen right and you absolutely hate tattoos but you got one of a crown right below you chest on the left side and
we all know hearts are on the left side. So since you got that tattoo four years ago, i have been asking myself who does that
crown below to. Then today Grayson kept calling Raina, Queen. Bingo and we have a winner ladies and gentlemen." He
laughed.
"Goodness I can't stand you Brad." I laughed at myself.
"I know now that we have figured this out. You need to go home to your fianc??e she just texted me saying she is worried."

"Right." I closed my eyes for a brief moment trying to consume everything.
"Listen Angelo. We can choose who we like but when it comes to those whom we love. I'm sorry but you have no say." He
paused. "That's a qoute by some smart person if it wasn't Shakespeare but you get my point."
"Thanks Brad." I sighed. I didn't know if I was thanking him for being there or for helping me come to terms with my own
feelings...
"Anytime."
