Chapter Six

“Well, I think it’s about time I got a move on,” Briana said as she picked up the piece of cheesecake she’d brought home from the café they’d visited at lunch. Blake saw her to the door after she said goodbye to Aiyana, but stopped her just before she left.

“Briana, I know you know, and I was just wondering-”

“Nope, don’t even ask me. I make it a point not to get involved in problems that are between a man and a woman. If you need to clarify something or get it off your chest, you talk to your girl in there. Now, I like you Blake.” She smiled and leaned in a little bit lowering her voice. “So make it a point not to hurt her. She’s had plenty of hurt before you came along.”

She took a look at the confused look on his face and shook her head as she pursed her lips. “I’ve said too much already by the looks of it. Go on, go back to her and sit down and have a pow-wow. I’m going to eat my cake with a glass of wine at home and dream about living in your closet.” She chuckled as she patted his face before she left.

Blake, a little shell-shocked, stood in the doorway a moment too long. Aiyana found him standing there with a confused and disoriented look on his face and closed the door for him. “She can be a handful, I know.”

“She’s-” he stopped himself as he looked down at Aiyana. “Never mind, it’s not her I want to talk about.”

Aiyana felt the familiar skip in her heartbeat when their gazes met and she wanted to lean up to kiss him, but they had things to discuss before she could curl up in his arms. “I know. Let’s go sit down.”

Blake followed her into the living room where they settled onto the couch together. Aiyana made a point of keeping a little distance between them. She wanted to have an adult discussion that wasn’t marred by their physical attraction for each other. “You go first,” she told him as she folded her legs beneath him.

“I love you. I want to be with you, and I think my mother will come around. If she doesn’t, it’s her loss. And your friend is weird.” He took a deep breath for the first time after he started talking, and searched her face for a hint of the passion he knew was in her.

“I love you, too, but I don’t want to be the woman that comes between a man and his mother. That’s not fair to all three of us, Blake. I don’t want you to stop talking to your mother because of me. And she may be weird, but she’s a kickass friend.” She saw a hint of a smile on his lips at her last sentence, but it quickly faded.

“So we’re at an impasse. I want to make you my wife, but you don’t want to be my wife unless my mother approves.
