“Hey.” The brunette said through the dead silence, “Long day?”

“Babe…” he grumbled trying to lift the dead weight off of him. “Rhys… Rhys love, can’ you get off me?” He laughed. No initial response, so the younger male pressed back against him knowing that if Rhys couldn’t feel the pressure on his arm, he couldn’t certainly feel it between his legs. “Baby…” he cooed, placing soft kisses along the skin before him. “Wake up…”

“What is this? A surprise...” Biting down on her lip as she gently took the small silk jewlery box into her hands Amari eyed it suspiciously, giving it a little shake.  They had been out, celebrating the opening of her new club and even though she had promised her dad she would focus more on work (less on fucking the help), she was as usual. Being a stubborn brat. “It is...a key? Okay I’m confused.” Raising a brow as she looked at him she wrinkled her nose, suddenly not so distracted by the half naked women and piles of money around them. “I hope this is not a key to what I think it is a key too because we both know my father wasn’t kidding about tossing you out of a window.”

“Hello?” She could hardly hear, the sounds from the club blaring through her phone was she busied herself, at home, rocking her very sick and very cranky daughter back and forth. “No...no Jaz I can’t come in tonight Jo is sick. Yea she caught an ear infection from daycare. No...I...what?” Frowning as she listened she silently began to shake her head, unsure if she was fully understanding. “So he is there and he asked you to call me? Well what is he doing? Just sitting there? Okay. Hand him the phone Jaz this will take two seconds.” Managing to soothe the one year old enough to place her on her bed Phoenix took a step back, slowly turning to head into the kitchen as she listened for the male voice on the other line. “...What in the hell are you doing at my club and why are you making a complete scene?” Her voice was trickled with mild annoyance but more than anything she was amused. Her cheeks having flushed a deep shade of red. “I had to skip out of work tonight my daughter is sick. I am stuck at home playing nurse which is why you shouldn’t just pop up every three months or whatever. Look. Either you can get a dance from someone else or not. If you are that bummed out however you can always find your way here. I could use another set of hands.” She was kidding of course but biting her lip as the words left her mouth she knew better than to make an offer to Rhys even if it was a joke. He was one of the good guys after all.

He wasn’t surprised to find Rhys on the sofa playing games and for whatever reason the sight only enraged him all over again. For the second time recently he walked over and wrenched the headset and controller from Rhys’ grasp and tossed them on the floor, but this time he just stood before the other fuming. “I like you okay? Is da wha’ you wan’ed me to say? That I don’ like you liking ofa people an’ that I don’ wan’ ta jus’ be ya friend? Fuckin’ ask me Rhys, don’ play games.”
