HIS TRUE BEAUTY

BRUNO’S POV**

He faked a smile and sneered.

“Oh remember, even I predicted it, I know what men go for, I am one myself, just don’t hurt my friend”.

I smiled back with my teeth.

“Don’t worry man, I am not an asshole like the short man who dump her after taking her innocence, or I forgot it’s you, are you wearing heel today , you are like an inch taller”.

I pinched my finger in demonstration.

His eyes was all I need to know that he is a competition, we both glaring at each other like longtime enemies.

Beauty coughed awkwardly.

“Steven, can you please wait for us here I will be back”

He smiled broadly, one could tell it isn’t pure.

“Ofcourse”

He replied and sat down on the couch.

Beauty took me by the hand and walked towards her room.

As soon we got in, I closed the after and hugged her tightly.

“I missed you so much, I didn’t make it to work today, it was an important meeting with the Pima company”

I whispered into her ears smoothly.

She suddenly pushed me away from her body.

“You don’t know how much it hurts, to get there and see your desk empty, I almost went crazy, you said that you will be there,”.

She snapped back.

My eyes widened at the outburst but then it felt good to know that she missed me too.

I smiled and stepped forward.

Slowly circled my hand around her hips.

“I am sorry, I promise not to make you wait ever”I said softly.

She looked up, her face flushed, our eyes met, communicating their own words, then, suddenly arched back her brow into a frown.

“Didn’t you trust me?”

She said staring into my eyes.

“Huh?”

I scratched my ear, knowing fully well I was in the mud.

“Don’t act confused, I get it! You are here because of Stephen right?”

“Ofcourse not”

I tried to say that, without sounding nervous, I prayed it should be convincing enough.

She was right, if she gave us a little bit of chance, I would definitely throw my hands at jerk

That fool!

“Are you cursing him in your mind?”

She broke into my thoughts, a brow raised and hands akimbo.

I looked down at her absentmindedly.

She sighed.

“I knew it! Baby it’s been just two days! Two days of our relationship, you think I am that loose! I can’t handle an ex?”

She snapped, her hands folded, lips pouted.

Okay I know she’s really mad, but that’s so cute , look at her chubby cheeks and the pouting lips.

“Are you smiling?”

She asked in a frustrated and suprise tone.

I chuckled nervously.

“Honey hey, I am…. just you know, trying to make you comfortable and protect you , I mean who knows if he’s here for good, you are my responsibility, I am here to make sure you are comfortable, I am sorry I made you mad”.

I tried to calm her.

She sighed then sat on the bed.

“Tim was my best friend before being my firstlove .. he is an asshole I agree, 8 also understand why you are worried and I appreciate it baby but he asked me to forgive him, I think he is for real”she replied.

I rolled my eyes in annoyance.

Hearing her say ‘first love’ made me hate him more, first love my foot!

She’s my first love , right?

But, I never made a deal out of it.

“Alright”.

Her eyes widened with excitement.

“Really?”

“Well the truth is, I am at my limits, when will he be leaving the house? I will throw hands anytime from 30 minutes”.

I choosed violence ignoring her peace statement , I do sound like a jealous teenager but I don’t give a fuck.

“This is my house, don’t tell me you’re the manipulator type”.

My face blanked out at that statement.

I wanted to get mad but I just can’t get mad at her, she too realized that she went far.

We both went silent for a while, the tense and awkwardness was much.

I found her sad with regret , she opened hr lips to apologise, but she held back shamefully.

I sighed deeply and broke the silence.

“Okay he can stay with you , I am going home”

She looked up, puzzled at my statement.

“Are you mad at me, I am sorry,.. I shouldn’t have said something so cruel to you…you are just protecting me.. I am sorry…”.

She was holding back tears.

I was shocked yo see her tear you over a little argument.

Oh Beauty how fragile.

Now I wonder how she would’ve felt when those jerks left her.

“I am sorry Bruno.. I am sorry. You are first before anyone…else…I don’t care anymore…I will tell him to leave”.

She cleaned her face and cried loudly.

I can’t stand and watch her cry over this.

“Why are you crying and apologizing?”

She looked up curiously at me.

I smiled back.

“If you don’t want me to go home, just say it, I am your man Beauty, say it and it shall be so”

I replied softly.

“I want you to stay.. Bruno”.

She said looking down in embarrassment.

“Not Bruno.. be more romantic”.

I replied.

She hugged me and sobbed

“Please stay with me, baby”.

I chuckled and pulled her out.

“Yes ma’am”.

I lift her chin and kissed her passionately, until I felt hard in between my legs.

“Beauty!”

Her mom called, interrupting the moment.

Beauty pulled away.

“Baby I will be right back”.

Not now I screamed in my head, I am filled to the brim!

“Please be fast my love”

I pleaded.

“Why don’t you go and join Tim in the sitting room, you two can learn to like eachother and get along , promise you won’t fight him”

She gave me the strict warning look .

Tim who?..

“Excuse me baby? First of all, I am not gay I can’t like him! Hell no, about fighting, don’t worry, I won’t break any bones “.

I replied broadly and winked.

“You don’t need to be gay to like him, he is my friend, and so he got to be yours too okay?”

“Friend? The loser is your fucking ex! You trust people easily that’s why they take advantage of you!”

I snapped, her face turned pale and her eyes sad.

I sighed then continued.

“Alright but for some reasons I can’t go out now, I will wait patiently for you here”.

I said and prayed silently to hold on until she is back, ever since the romance at the river then I have been have having this embarrassment.

“Are you feeling okay?”

She asked worried.

“Yes I am fine, just don’t like socializing so I will wait here”.

I replied.

“Come on, it’s just one person, not enough people for socializing”

She dragged me out of the room playfully.

As soon as we got to the sitting room, seeing Tim made me sick, the jerk was comfortable like he was some kind of family member.

Beauty took me to the couch and pushed me down to my seat with a finger.

“Just sit right here I will be back”.

She turned to leave.

“Wait”.

I grabbed her wrist and pulled her in her a kiss.

I kissed her smoothly, deep and hard, then relased her.

Beauty was gasping for air, her breath fast and fierce.

“You can go now”.

I I said huskily.

She gulped hard and nodded with her cheeks hot then ran to help her mom in the kitchen.

As soon as she was gone, I stole a glance at Tim. His face was some I expected. I ignored him and took out my phone to go through my messages.

I walked to the couch and sat down facing the big screen , a love scene was up on the screen.

“Beauty is a nice girl, one the nicest I know actually”.

The fool started a conversation, I ignored him.

“But a different person in bed, bring back memories”

he chuckles.

I am going to hit him.

I am going to hit him.

Oh I have an idea.

I picked my phone and texted Beauty’s friend, Jessie.

After that I turned to him.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

“Short…. , when are you going back to your house?”

He laughed.

“You can’t hide your jealousy, can you brat? You are earnest for your age.

However I am her friend I have known her more than half her life time”.

“You didn’t answer my question”.

I replied with a dreadful look at him.

He stopped smiling.

“I am staying tonight , stop acting like a kid, I won’t kidnap your girl”

“Ofcourse you won’t dare, you are too young to visit heaven”.

My eyes stabbed his coldly.

Just then Beauty returned to the sitting room, I smiled broadly at her.

“You are back, baby”.

“Yeah..”.

She walked into the sitting room and sat down beside me resting her head on my shoulder.

“Are you done?’

I whispered.

She nodded, I kissed her, then it happened again, I felt my sword raised.

“Can we go inside now my love”.

I whispered into her ears.

“No baby, let’s keep our visitor company”

She said innocently.

“It’s really important, it’s a life and death condition”.

I whispered to her.
