King of Hearts Pt. II


Chapter II 

Tristan watched as his phone lite up against his face, he rolled over in his King size bed, and place his cell on the black nightstand. The phone announced “You have an incoming call from...” when he hit the ignore button his screen. He scratched his curly hair as he rose from his bed and walked out of his bedroom toward the kitchen. A pile of letters rested on top of the dining table as he walked passed to the coffee maker.  He filled the coffee maker with coffee and water and put a bagel into the toaster.  His phone yelled “You have an incoming call from Michael Smith” as Tristan rolled his eyes. 

“What the fuck does he want?” He asked while pouring a cup of his fresh hot coffee brew. 

There was a knock on the door, Tristan looked over to the stove to check the time, and walked to the door. 

“Who is it?” He questioned. 

“It’s me Greg. Let me in” Greg said as he stood outside at the door. 

Tristan opened the door and let Greg into his apartment. Greg walked to the kitchen table and take a seat. The air became thick and dense as he enter into the apartment and Tristan felt cool on the tips of his hairs.  Greg reclined in the tall chair with a smirk on his face. Tristan walked over to the toaster and take out his bagel. 

“So what bring you other here...This is not your normal location. It is a little too low rent for you.” Tristan asked as he rubbed sweet strawberry jam on his bagel. 

“Oh you know I was just in the neighborhood” Greg looked over in the living room to see a picture frame was turned over. 

“Really now Greg? That’s not like you” Tristan said as took a bite of his bagel. 

“So are we going to cut the small talk?” Greg asked as Tristan raised an eyebrow. 

“What do you mean by that” Tristan stared at Greg. 

“Oh you know what I mean...” Greg pointing over the picture frame that was faced. 

“I don’t have time for that as you can see I got better things to worry about” Tristan lifted up the letters and letting them fly down onto the table. 

“I see you got problem and an issue but you know what you are letting a good man go.” Greg smirked as he seen Tristan’s face reddened. 

“I think it's time for you leave” Tristan yelled. 

“No need to be so hostile. I will be going see you later Tristan and oh yea red is an excellent color for you” Greg said as he walked out the door and slammed it. 

Tristan sighed and reach for his pack of Black & Mild. He soon discovered that he was out. 

“Damn...what the fuck is going on with me?” He questioned as he threw the letters and plate off the table.

King of Hearts Pt. VIII

Tristan swung his car door open as he abruptly stopped his car in front of the house. He raced up to the front door, his blood boiled, and his body reached new height as every second past. Tears slowly begun to moisten his fierce eyes. There was nothing anyone could tell him to stop what we going to happen next. His right fist tightened as we reached to ring the door. Tristan rang the door, his muscle tensed up preparing for the first strike, and gradually the door open.  “Bitch you thought I won’t find out” He slammed Andre to the floor.  “What you…” Andre questioned but Tristan punched again in the jaw. “He was my fuckin’ boyfriend you asshole” Tristan sobbed as tears flowed from his eyes.  Tristan fell to the floor as his body was weak. Andre nursed his face and tears flowed down his face. Tristan sobbed harder as the image of Andre and Michael flowed through his mind like a busted dam. Tristan got off the floor and kicked Andre in his ribs.  ...

Crazy Messed Up Night

Drip. Drip. Drip. "What the hell is going on?" I questioned. My body felt heavy and numb as I tried to move. My head resonated like someone was banging it as if it was a drum. I searched around to see nothing but darkness. Piss was strong as it fouled that air and invaded my nostrils. The odor burned my nose as I inhaled. It masked my nose in a blanket of musk and disgust. My eyes watered at the sure scent of it, I knew I had to get out of here, but how was I am going to get out. Most importantly, where in the hell I'm I? I laid there.  My stomach twisted with every breath. I attempted to sit up to remember the last thing that I could remember. My head spun and blurred as I tried to get up. I knew I was drunk for sure but what else. I surveyed around to discover that I laid on a mattress. I observed to my surrounding as I heard cars zoom in the background. "Was I downtown?" I questioned myself as I sat up off the floor. "Ok? Seems like I'm ...

King of Hearts Pt. III

Andre walked in the entrance of Club Flava, security scanned him in the doorway, and he paid the admission. He entered the club and his face was struck by the thick wall of sound and body heat. He shook his head as he strolled to the bar and took a seat at the counter.  'What can I get you?" The bartender asked while polishing a glass.  "He will have a Apple martini" Greg walked up to the counter and paid for the drink.  "Apple martini it is" Andre stared at Greg.  "What you doing buddy?" Andre smiled.  "I  just came here for some atmosphere" Greg smirked.  "I suppose lil boy" Andre giggled.  "So who you trying to take home tonight" Andre raised his eyebrow as he receive his drink from the bartender.  "Oh I don't know. Maybe you?" Greg laughed as he shook his head.  "That's a laugh but no…you are too damn controlling for me" Andre sipped on his drink.  ...
