Duke & Gia
Duke pulled into the parking lot of Gia’s apartment complex. He adjusted the bouquet of red roses and white lilies in the passenger seat. Gia didn’t move back in with him after their child was born like he expected. In response, he decided to take her out on a date. Her 6 weeks were finally up and she was able to leave the house.
Duke fidgeted with the radio and AC relentlessly waiting on Gia to come downstairs. He kept checking his messages to see if she texted him — nothing. The constant waiting was driving him insane until he finally cracked. Duke grabbed the flowers and walked upstairs to Gia’s apartment.
“Gia! Gia, open the door!” Duke banged on her apartment door repeatedly and didn’t get an answer.
Gia was sitting on the couch trying to watch tv when she heard Duke banging on the door. She rolled her eyes when he kept going after she didn’t answer the door at the first knock. Eventually he finally stopped and Gia’s exhaled a breath she didn’t even know she was holding.
Gia continued to watch tv when she heard a knock at her balcony door. Gia was in complete and utter shock at the visual of Duke standing on her balcony with flowers in hand. He literally climbed to the second floor just to get her attention. Usually, this would’ve made her cave in but Duke’s behavior was truly pissing her off. He tried to surprise her with flowers and take her on a date but Gia wasn’t trying to deal with Duke on that level. She just wanted to coparent. Gia went to her balcony door and unlocked it before Duke broke the glass.
“What the hell do you want?” Gia went to sit back on the couch and continue watching tv.
“I know you saw my texts.”
“And?”
Gia never looked in Duke’s direction. Her nonchalant attitude was killing him cause he knew she wanted him as much as he wanted her. Duke sat the flowers next to Gia and his cologne engulfed her. She tried to ignore it but it was too late. Duke saw the lust in her eyes. He grabbed her hand and gently pulled her from the couch. He grabbed Gia’s face on both sides then kissed her passionately. She couldn’t hold back any longer. Gia began to kiss him back. Duke grabbed and caressed her curves, kissed along the length of her neck...
“Wah!!!” The baby woke up crying. For a second, Gia had forgotten about Trinity. She came to her senses and pushed Duke away so that she could get her baby. Duke was upset but there was nothing he could do. Gia was a mother first and he respected that. Seeing Gia in a maternal light made him want her more.
