Chapter 3

It was now Monday morning. Ivy and I slept by my grandmothers side. The nurse allowed both of us to stay. She gave us some thin white blankets that needed to be doubled up to even keep us warm amid the air-conditioned room. I woke first. Nana was still operating off the beeping machines. I quietly made my way to the bathroom that was located in the room. I pissed and washed my hands. I checked my phone looking for a response from Dos. “Where is this nigga?” I thought to myself. I opened the door, walking back into the space only to find Ivy up and stretching.

“Good morning, Uno.”

I nodded.

She went to the bathroom and came out within minutes and sat back down in the chair.

“You know I went to say hi to her and that’s when I found her laying on the floor. I had never been so scared.”

“The doctors told me what you did. Thank you. You might have saved her life. I owe you for that.”

“Nana is just as much my grandmother as she is yours. We might not be blood, but I love her like we are.”

I just smiled. Choosing to place my focus back on Nana.

The morning nurse walked in. She introduced herself and proceeded to take Nana’s vitals.

“Mr. Douglas, the doctor ordered a few tests this morning. I’m going to get your grandmother ready to head over to the neurology wing. We will be gone for about two hours. You can wait or take this time to go home and change. If we need you, we can call you.”

“Naw, I’ll wait.”

“Uno, you really should try to find Dos. I tried calling him, but it went to voicemail. Plus, we can head home and change clothes.” Ivy chimed in.

“Mr. Douglas, your grandmother is in good hands. Take an hour and get something to eat and come back,” the nurse reassured me.

“Ok. I’ll be back.”

I took one last look at Nana, kissed her forehead, and got ready to leave the room. Ivy was right on my heals.

“Uno, wait up.”

I pushed the elevator button wishing I didn’t have to wait. The doors opened just as she caught up to me. The elevator was full, which was just fine with me. It prevented Ivy and I from having to talk. As we approached the ground floor, I felt her grab my hand and hold on tight. I didn’t even acknowledge her gesture. The doors opened and I pulled her along as my pace sped up and we made it to the parking ramp.

“Uno!”

I stopped dead in my track. A hard sigh escaped me. “Ivy what!”

Without warning she fell into my arms and held me. I wanted to push her away. Far away. But I couldn't. “Get in the car Ivy.” I said as I reached for the passenger side door and opened it. She released her hold on me and did as I instructed her to. I walked around to the driver side, got in and drove off.

We rode in silence back to my condo. I parked in my designated parking spot. I got out and so did she. I just looked at her annoyed. She knew how I felt about women opening doors in my presence. She followed closely as we entered the elevator and went up to the sixteenth floor. I could feel her eyes on me. Ivy had a hold on me that no woman ever had. It was dangerous. The chemistry between us was pure and toxic at the same time. I knew what was about to happen. She shouldn’t be here, yet she was. The elevator’s bell announced the sixteenth floor as the upward motion slowed down and the doors opened. She took hold of my hand once again. This time, against my better judgement, I held her back as we walked to my door. No sooner than the keys opened the door, and we entered my private space, something carnal took over me.

Without warning our lips locked as our tongues wrestled for control. I grabbed her forcefully, ripping her shirt off of her exposing the same breasts I fell in love with years ago. Her lace white bra design enhanced her protruding nipples. They resembled ripe strawberries ready to be devoured. I pushed her up against the door to the condo with her breast up against the white oak finish. Her breathing quickened and I could feel my heartbeat searching for hers. I unfastened her jeans allowing her to step out of them. I pulled my sweatpants down and kicked them to the side. My dick ached at how stiff it was. It throbbed wanting to enter her. It had been so long since I penetrated heaven, and I wanted a taste of glory.

I held onto her hand as I mounted her against the door. My left leg slid in between her thighs as my dick made its way home. She jumped as I entered her, and a gush of wetness poured out of her sanctuary. My thickness stretched her opening causing her to moan like a beautiful song. I rode her pussy from the back like she was on punishment. Her labia wrapped around my girth like a rubber band as it squeezed my meat with every thrust. I fucked her hard giving her the years of regret that lingered between us.

“Oooh Uno,” she panted over and over again.

I didn’t let up. I held her body up against the door as our bodies collided. She felt so damn good that I almost forgot that I didn’t want to enjoy it. I wanted to punish her, but her wetness and the way she bounced back on this dick made it hard for me to concentrate on my anger.

“Oh, Uno baby,” she cried out as I lowered my knees and drove my steel deep into her guts. The way she rained down on my dick told me that whoever was fucking her now wasn’t doing a good enough job because there was no way in hell she should be this tight and wet for me. I held her up as she came over and over again. I felt her body go limp as her cream coated my dick. I pulled out as a stream of juice poured out of her and down her legs. I picked her up and turned her around. Her weak legs wrapped around my waist as she fell into my chest. I held her body close to mine as I inserted myself into her opening. She welcomed me by rocking up and down on my dick. First it was slow steady grinds which turned into full speed pouncing. I took hold of her legs as her thighs rested on my forearms, cuffing her ass I pounced her pussy up and down on my meat as hard as I could. Up and down, she went like a wild women arching her back and enjoying the pain I was inflicting on her.

“Fuck Ivy,” I grunted as her pussy got to me. I was hitting walls and spots I had forgotten about and until now missed. I could feel her warm liquid covering my tip as I went harder into her gushiness. I fucked her and she was definitely fucking me back.

“Unooo!” she moaned as an endless flow of stickiness covered my dick. It was too much for me to ignore. I quickly pulled out of her as a hot load of seed shot down my leg and onto the floor.

“Shidd” I moaned. I held Ivy in my arms, walked over to the sofa and gently placed her down.

I rubbed my sweaty braids as the actions of our chaos had them dripping down my back. Wondering how we got here. “Nigga you know how,” I said to myself letting out a chuckle.

“What’s so funny?”

“Nothing,” I said cleaning up my cum off the floor. “I’mma go take a shower,” I said, walking toward the back of the condo and into my bedroom.

The water was hot and the steam from the jets filled the primary bathroom within minutes. Water covered me, washing away evidence of what I just did. Ivy had a wicked hold on me. She had the same hold on my brother. Her being here wouldn’t lead to anything but trouble and heartache. And as soon as Dos finds out she is in town it is going to be chaos and fuckery.

Ivy entered the bathroom just as I was exiting. I was glad. I didn’t think it was wise for me to be close to her naked in the shower. Her pussy had a magnetic pull on my dick. And now that he knew she was here, I had little or no control over him. He was going to want her even if my heart said no.

“Do you mind?” she asked, pointing to the shower.

“Towels over there and wash clothes are over here.”

She smiled as she entered the shower. I watched as she immersed her beautifully flawed body in the water. I had to admit she was still stunning. Her curves were more womanly, and her hips fuller. But time and distance didn’t take anything away from her. She was still the vision I remembered and the standard for which I have held all women to. I watched her in the mirror as I brushed my teeth and moisturized my face. She was gorgeous.

I hurried up and got dressed. A t-shirt, some jeans and a pair Clark’s Wallybee shoes set the tone for spending another day by my Nana’s side. In the back of my closest, I had a stash of women’s leggings and tank tops. I grabbed a black set, found the last matching jacket, and laid it out for Ivy. When she walked into the bedroom wrapped in a towel with wet hair, my dick jumped with excitement.

“Put those on.” I pointed to the outfit on the bed.

She giggled. “You just keep women’s clothes at your condo?”

I smirked. “Put it on. We need to go.”

I left the room to allow her to get dressed. I took the time to make a few calls and again Dos' call went to voicemail. “Where is this nigga?”

I grabbed a bottle of green tea waiting for Ivy to come out. As soon as I finished the twelve ounces of cold brew, Ivy was done getting dressed. I grabbed my keys and wallet as we headed out the door.

By the time we arrived back at the hospital, Dos was waiting in the room.

“Damn, Uno.”

“Nigga where you been?”

Dos gave me a look as if to say we can talk about that later. The look only intensified when he saw Ivy walk in behind me. “Nigga,” he said under his breath.

“Hey Ivy” Dos said as he stood to offer her his seat.

“Hey Dos,” she said giving him a tight hug.

“Damn girl you look damn good.” He smirked.

“This isn’t how I wanted to return home. I’m just happy I was there when I was.”

“Yeah. Ivy was on her way to say hi to Nana when she found her on the floor. She called 911. Probably saved Nana’s life” I chimed in catching Dos up to speed.

“The neurologist was in here earlier. He filled me in on what happened. The nurse told me that you left and would be back soon. Damn bro. This is bringing back too many bad memories. I feel so helpless watching her like this.”

“I know Dos. But Nana is as strong as she is stubborn. I know she can hear us. She just resting trying to get her energy up.”

“All these fucking tubes and wires connected to her like this. This shit ain’t right, Uno.”

“Stay strong for Nana, man. She gonna pull through,” I said, as I placed my hand on his shoulder.

For the rest of the night, we all talked catching up on lost time. Ivy told us all about her life in California. The sun, beaches and work that consumed her life. We filled her in on stuff from the old neighborhood, friends and of course our lives. It was a comfortable familiarity that I think we all enjoyed. The three of us were back together. If Nana woke up right now and saw us like this she would be in heaven. She always considered Ivy the granddaughter she never had. We watched as nurses came and went even nodding off as the sounds of the monitors echoed in our minds. We were all thinking about Nana, but I knew deep down we were also reminded of what tore the trio apart.
