“Okay, so, let’s break this down. What do you know about her so far? Any concerns?”
“Uh, well, I could at least tell you her name. It’s Desiree. You probably don’t know who this is, but she looks like a young Debbi Morgan. Like, identical. About the same complexion, deep dimples, same eyes, lips. Only her body is much thicker…”
“I don’t know who Debbi Morgan is.”
“I figured you didn’t. She’s been in a lot of movies, but probably ones you never saw. She was on the show, ‘Power,’ too. Hold on.” Legend pulled out his phone, and first showed Axel a picture of Desiree. “This is Desiree.”
“Oh, yeah. Nice! I see why she turned your eye. She’s real pretty, man.”
“I know. Now, here is an old photo from 1991 of the actress Debbi Morgan…”
“It looks like the same lady!”
“I told you…” Legend smiled with pride. “My mama and grandma used to watch the soaps together, and I’d see her on the TV. I had a crush on her as a little boy.” He put his phone up. “So, uh… let’s see… Oh, she’s got a kid. A twelve-year-old daughter. I haven’t met Kaylee yet, because Desiree is careful about who she brings around her child, but from what I can tell, she seems like a good mother. I’m not going to lie though, Axel. My usual charm and shit aren’t working. We haven’t fucked yet, and it’s driving me crazy.” Axel looked genuinely surprised. “I know… I need my playa card revoked. I know she wants to, but she’s stalling. I leave her place so sexually frustrated; I feel like I’m going to explode. You might see me on the news tonight: ‘Man with freckles detonates from swollen blue balls.’”
Axel burst out laughing. Legend ran his hand across his mouth, practically drooling at the thought of her body. “Like, if I could put together my dream girl, she’d be it. She’s ambitious. We’ve got a lot in common, too. She’s been through some shit, Axel. She’s tough, but still soft, if that makes sense.”
“Yeah, I know exactly what you mean…”
“We’ll spend like two hours on the phone every night, but it feels like only a few minutes. Oh, I forgot to mention, she did let me speak to her kid on the phone once… only for a few seconds because her daughter asked who she was talkin’ to. She introduced me as a friend of hers from school.”
“Well, that’s a good sign, right?”
“Yeah. I was kinda pissed though, because I don’t want to be just her friend, man. When she says it to other people, it makes me feel angry for some reason. Like, it solidifies that she might really keep my ass in the friendzone. I ain’t never had to beg for a woman’s time or pussy, Axel. The more she resists, the more I chase her. Chasing women is for simps, man. I ain’t gotta chase shit, and yet, here I am. Doing it. This is totally out of character for me. I even stopped fucking other women a few weeks ago. I just want to focus on her. I don’t know how much longer I can last though. Besides when I’ve been in prison, I ain’t never went longer than two weeks without smashin’. Sex is really important to me, Axel.”
“Hell, me too!”
“Right! It’s like eatin’ and breathin’. I have to have it, and yet, I’m not getting any. This is downright disconcertin’.” His heart started to beat faster. “I’m pissed about it, but it excites me, too. Makes me want her even more. That’s weird, ain’t it?”
“Not really. You like this girl. You like the hunt, too.” Axel shrugged. “You say you don’t want to be in a relationship, but a part of you does because you met someone who fits the bill. A part of you is not on board, but another part of you wants to be her man. It’s a struggle goin’ on inside of you.”
Legend nodded.
She’s got my head all fucked up… shit. This is why I didn’t want this to happen!
“In class, we’re always laughing and having fun together. I make sure I’m early now, just so I can sit by her. Man… Each time I’m over at her place, at the end of the night, there’s always a lot of sexual tension. I kiss her, but I just go home after that. I can tell she wants it, but, uh… she just won’t give in… it’s killin’ me, man. I’m about to throw in the towel because it’s kinda childish in my opinion, for her to keep holding out like this, but at the same time, I’m not a woman, and I know their body count holds more weight than ours. I’m still trying to hang in there because I dig her entire vibe.”
