Damn, I realized I hadn’t seen Rayna since Mexico. Things had gotten so busy with work, I’d been traveling relentlessly leaving little room for a social life. Once I’d finally gotten a moment to breathe, I thought about her, reminisced over our time together in Mexico. I enjoyed her and couldn’t wait until I was able to get her alone again. I pulled out my watch and noticed it wasn’t too late in the hour on the Pacific Coast, so I texted her. I thought she’d be asleep but she responded. I didn’t know where things were going between us but was cool with it. I could wait it out; I wasn’t pressed. But every time I thought about what she felt like in my arms those nights in Mexico, it intensified my craving of her.

I was in my hotel room at the Adolphus in Dallas. I had been in town for a minority enterprise convention at the Dallas Convention Center. I didn’t want to go but I promised my boys, Mark and Eric, that we’d hang out together. I have to admit being in and out of workshops, including morning sessions, wasn’t my idea of hanging but Eric was the keynote speaker so we had to support him.

There was a knock at the door. It was Mark.

“Are you ready, man? What have you been doing in here, beating your meat?” Mark joked.

“Oh nah, I was waiting on you to come and do it for me. I know that’s your steez and all!” I jeered as I walked over to the dresser to grab my wallet and keys.

“What the hell are you smiling at? You gotta love jones or something, Jacobs?”

“You don’t know the half!” I murmured much to myself before turning to leave so that we could grab a bite.

Over dinner, after the usual laughter and piggish banter we normally do, things got really serious between us. I guess after five bottles of Krug anyone would get a little emotional. Eric informed us of his impending divorce from NaTasha. I was blown away to say the least. He said that things had changed in their three year marriage.

“Dawg, it’s everything…the sex, conversation, even the way she smells!” Eric cried.

Mark and I burst into laughing fits. Mark even spit out his drink. He took a few seconds to gather himself. “How in the hell does her scent change? What do you mean…her vaginal odor?” Mark asked.

“No! It’s her hair and overall body odor, bro! I don’t know what to do. I’m telling you, one of these fresh graduate collegiate dames was about to be victimized over the weekend,” Eric said damn near in tears. I didn’t have anything to offer; marriage was way off my radar. I didn’t want anything to do with it.

“Okay! Is this Usher’s confession time?” Mark asked making it obvious he had a bomb to drop. Eric and I just looked at dude waiting for his announcement.

“I’m in love, ya’ll!” Mark divulged with reluctant grandeur fueled by shame.
