Chapter 3

Just like Welcome to the Party I will be trying to post 2 Chapters each week. I'm thinking maybe not next week because I have finals but other than that I'll be posting regularly. Btw I post music to each of these chapters and I advise you to listen to the song while reading because it makes the story more relatable.

Disclaimer: I own no one but my original characters everyone else owns themselves.

The font that is different are flashbacks.

After finishing work and school for the day Mariah exhaustedly walked into the apartment to find it completely quiet. She lazily took her shoes off and plopped on the couch. So much had happened today that she wasn't expecting. Could she really fix her problems? Was it even her fault these problems were happening? Was it because how she looked? Could he be losing feelings for her? Mariah did know his reputation and how he was with the women.

She got up from the couch and headed up stairs to the bathroom to wash off everything that happened that day. She stepped into the shower and let her hair get fully wet. She thought about how she and Dean used to be. The good old days, when they were just lost into themselves….

Forever –Majid Jordan

Oh, ah, oh, ah, oh, ah
Oh, ah, oh, ah, oh, ah
Oh, ah, oh, ah, oh, ah

"C'mon Dean let's dance..."Mariah said as she tugged Dean's arm.

The club was packed with dozens of people. Dean and Mariah had come with Roman and his girlfriend and Seth had come with his. Everyone was dancing and having fun. Mariah looked at Seth and his girl in the distance almost grinding on each other. Mariah knew Dean wasn't a dancer... it wasn't like he didn't know how he just was the type.

"Doll you know I don't like to dance." he said while he drunk his beer.

Mariah looked at him and gave him the puppy face... she always knew it worked on him, even when he tried to protest.

Can't stop the way that you make me feel, feel
Something about this just feels so real
Ah, can't stop the way that you make me feel (me feel, feels)
Something about this just feels so real
When you know that I (I need to know [x8])
You hoping, to mean it, tonight
So I'm hoping, that maybe, you might

Dean caught it quick and said "Nahh doll face it's not gonna work this time." Dean laughed as she pouted her lips and stomped her foot on the ground.

Mariah caught an idea and slowly caught the beat of the music and moved her hips to the song while looking at Dean lustfully. Dean could see what she was doing but tried his best not to sink into her trap.

Cause you know I want to, I want to
But I just can't keep it together
And you know I want to, I want to, I want it to last forever
(Want it to last forever [x3])

He knew he would fail when she started moving toward him and had her body in between his body and tugged on his v neck that he had on.

She bent over toward his ear and lustfully said "If you dance with me right now, when we get home ill dance for you..." she offered with a lustful smirk. Dean thought about it and remembered how he loved her dancing for him... every thought went inside his head.

Can't stop the way that you make me feel
Some things in life you just can't conceal

The outfit she would wear... , the stilettos,, the perfume.., the way she did her hair…, he thought about it and knew he didn't wanna give in until she bent over and said " and I'll let you get your way…" he thought about it for a second and thought how at the end of the day he always got his way until she moved closer to him where her cleavage was right in front of his face and she grabbed his man hood without anybody seeing her with her hand and looked at him directly in the eye with a smirk.

As soon as she did that he immediately got up and cursed himself for once again falling into her trap once again.

He hopped out of his seat and said "For some odd reason I'm in the mood to dance." and he grabbed her waist. Maraih proudly smiled and said "I knew you would" she said as she danced and pulled Dean to the dance floor.

Mariah yelped as Dean smacked her denim covered ass and pulled her close and said "You owe me big time when we get home."

Maraiah giggled to the middle of the dance floor as her favorite song came on and started moving her hips. Dean walked toward her and wrapped his arms around her waist and danced in sync with her. She turned in Deans arms and moved her hips to the beat and grind on Dean. Dean moved closer to her and rocked his hips with her.

Ah, can't stop the way that you make me feel
But tonight, time is on our side, time is on our side
Some things in life you just can't conceal
So why, why don't we try? Why don't we try?

They were both lost in each other. It felt like nothing was on the dance floor except for them. She turned back around and looked Dean in the face and wrapped her arms around his neck and he did the same to her waist.

They lived for these kinds of moments...the ones were they were the only ones that mattered to each other at that moment. They spun in circles and the song kept going. They both laughed and danced more when Dean bent down to capture maraih in smothering kiss that Mariah gladly accepted. Dean slipped his tongue into her mouth as they kissed.

(I need to know [x8])
You hoping, to mean it, tonight
So I'm hoping, that maybe, you might

"Aww look at the little love birds"

Roman yelled as he stood with his girl. Dean and Maraih both broke the kiss and Maraih giggled onto Dean's chest. Even though neither one had truly confessed there love for one another they both knew how deeply they cared for one other.

As the song was about to die down smoke and confetti blew out from the roof and Maraih broke into laughter and Dean smiled at her.

Oooooh, oooh, ooh
Oooooh, oooh, ooh
Oooooh, oooh, ooh
Why don't we try? Why don't we try?

Mariah snapped out of her daydream as she noticed how long she had been in the shower. She teary eyed smiled as she thought of that moment. They were both so in love with each other. Maraih got out the shower and dried herself off and went into her bedroom and put on some pajamas. She laid down in bed and thought how she was gonna fix the thing between herself and dean. She knew it was gonna take a lot… but that's what relationships took. She wasn't gonna be sad for herself if she wanted this relationship she was gonna take everything and anything to fix it. Maraih was up for the challenge.

"Listen to me …" Dean said irritated. He stood outside his apartment. He wouldn't go up there to his apartment so she could find out. That would be the dumbest thing ever. After talking to Roman he knew he had to kept his secret more private and not out in the open. As of right now Roman was the only one that knew about his secret.

He lazily listened to the other person on the other side of the phone. All he wanted to do was end the conversation and go back to bed to at least see if Maraiah was alright from this morning. He couldn't feel anything but guilty for what he was doing to Maraih.

He was caught out of thought when she said "Why don't you just leave Maya and just be with me.?" He got heated when she always asked him that question he angrily stood up and yelled into the phone "I told you to stop fucking asking me that fucking question, you and I both know, I love that girl and I'm not just gonna leave a girl that's been down for me since jump."

The other end was silent until she asked "So why are you still calling me at night, and not getting what you want from her?"

"Do start with that bullshit."

"The fact that you're avoiding the question just proves that you'll be better off without me. Just leave her."

Dean was beyond pissed off and said "You knew what you were getting into when you met me and I told you what I had to offer so don't bullshit me, I'm staying with Mariah and either you listen to my rules or this over." with that he hung up the phone and went his is apartment.

As he walked into the apartment he saw how everything was neat and intact. He reached their room and saw how she was sprawled out on the bed. He smiled at how she snored slightly, and his t-shirt that he always loved for her to wear was on, with her blue panties. He missed the times that he and her had. He had always wished he could be a real and true man that Maraih needed and confess his true love for her. He knew he had to get his shit together or else he would lose Mariah forever.

Sooo who do you think Dean was talking to on the phone? What do you his secret is? What about Maraiah?

Thank you so much and make sure to review and comment and tell me your opinion. And Happy Thanksgiving!
