Toy's Story (40 page)

I woke up to find Logic gone. In an absolute panic I searched the entire suite for him but he was not there.
For some unknown reason he had left without as much as a fuck off, don’t call me no more, goodbye. Confused I instantly began to unravel. Could I have been drunk and imagined all of this?

My swollen pussy and the distinct taste of dick in my mouth quickly dispelled that concept. Then it hit me in my face like a fifty pound sack of freshly minted quarters. This nigga fucked me on my wedding day and then left me. This was all a sick, twisted game of payback. “OMFG!” I loudly screamed.

Then I completely lost it. Were Jade and Queen a part of this? They obviously set the whole thing up. Did they know what Logic planned to do? My mind raced a thousand miles a minute as I tried to figure out what
the fuck
happened. I grabbed my phone praying that Logic had left me a message.
I dialed his number but my call went straight to voicemail. I texted him hoping he would respond, n
o such luck
.
I couldn’t contact Logic but
I
discovered that I had three calls
and four
texts
from Tyson.
“
Tyson, oh my God
!
W
hat was I going to tell Tyson?
O
MFG
,
w
ould
somebody please send me some fucking help!” I screamed out loud.

I called Jade and Queen, but neither of them answered. I even called Dorian but my call went to his voicemail as well. Suddenly I felt stupid as I realized that I may have just sacrificed my last chance for happy ever after for a grimy, nasty fuck with my ex on the night before my wedding. Distraught I burst into tears and threw myself on the bed sobbing uncontrollably like a fuckin toddler. In retrospect I realized that Karma is a bitch and she likes to dick you straight up the ass without lubricant.

Talking to Tyson on the phone was not even an option. Hell lying to him was not even an option. He’d see right through me immediately
. Besides he deserves to know the truth. He needed to know that the woman he was about to marry was a
silly
dumbass slut
who
fucked he
r
vindictive ex-boyfriend at her bachelorette party.

Not knowing what else to do I gathered my scattered clothes from the bedroom floor and head
ed
for a much needed shower. I looked in the mirror. I was a fuckin train wreck.
Unable to stand the sight of my own ass I climbed in the shower and prayed that the hot water and soap would somehow wash the contempt
that
I had for myself off.

To my absolute surprise I emerged from the bathroom to discover Logic sitting on the bed. He looked so handsome sitting there waiting for me I had to do a double take to make sure I wasn’t dreaming. Stopping in my tracks I just stood there looking at him. I didn’t know what to say so I said nothing as I carefully
wrapp
ed the oversized hotel
towel around my body.

“Experiencing a
bad
case of buyer’s remorse?” Logic chuckled.

“What? You think this shit is funny, Logic?
I’m supposed to get married today.
”

“Calm down. I was just kidding. Get dressed and come out
front
we need to talk.”

“Oh yeah, about what?”
I challenged as I cautiously moved to the other side of the bed not quite able to figure out what
was actually going on
.

“Are
you okay?”

“Yeah. What do we need to talk about?”

“Get dressed and come out and see.” He simply said as he got up and left.

Not really sure what to expect I quickly put on my clothes. If we were going to have a showdown then I wanted to make sure that I was fully dressed just in case he called security to toss my ass out of his suite. I wasn’t quite sure what deranged game Logic was playing but as I dressed with purpose I was determined to find out. I instantly decided that if Logic Hart
thinks that he is going
to ruin my life and my wedding day over some bullshit
payback scheme
then he was going to get a
hell of a lot
more than he bargained for. “I’m going
to fuck his
big ass
up
!” My mind screamed.

As I stomped into the great room, ready to fight, I immediately stopped in my tracks as I realized that they were all there. Queen, Jade, Dorian, Christian and even Teddy were all sitting there waiting for me.

“What the fuck?” I mumbled.

Logic slowly approached as he extended his hand for me. “It’s okay come on out.”

I was frightened and my legs begin to shake. I just
c
ouldn’t
bear the thought that
they all conspired to hurt me. “What’s going on Logic?
Why are they here?
”

“Come here. What’s wrong with you?” Logic asked as he came to retrieve me.

I searched his face for a clue what was going on. Expecting to see that oh I got your ass back look, I was stunned to find nothing but
unconditional
love and a
dmiration
for me there.
“I don’t understand what’s happening.”

“Come here, you will.” Logic said as he gently pulled me in his arms and looked in my eyes. The fear on my face was undeniable. “Look at you. You’re scared to death.”

Jade and Queen immediately rose to come to comfort me as I burst into tears. Logic quickly stopped them. “No, she’s okay I have this.” They both looked at each other and reluctantly set back down.

“Toy please don’t cry. It’s okay. You’re gonna make me cry.” Queen said
as she wiped tears from the corners of her eyes
.

“Don’t be afraid. It’s okay. We all love you.” Jade
managed as her voice became emotional.

As Logic attempted to wipe the tears that poured down my face like Niagara Falls I tried to gain my composure. Try as hard as I might I couldn’t pull myself together.
I grabbed him and held on for dear life.
Logic held m
e tight and tried to console me, but I was inconsolable at this point.
 
“I’m afraid. Please tell me what’s going on.”

Logic pushes me away so that he could look me in my face. “I’m afraid too.” His voice managed
before it began to crack
as he dropped to one knee and took my hand in his. “I have travelled all over the world three times, but I have never met a woman like you.
The short time that we spent together assured me of that.
And t
he short time that
we spent apart
convinced me of one thing.
I am so in love with you.
I’m not really living unless you are in my arms or by my side. Woman I’m in awe of you. You make my soul rejoice. So I am asking, no I’m begging you
in front of all of my friends
and God
… Zatoya Waters will you marry me today?”

Now to be honest with you this magically delicious man had my little ass at hello. Yeah I know he never
really
said hello, but you know what I’m talking about. When he dropped to his knee my heart was beating so loud and so fast I probably only heard about fifty percent of what he really said.
Time stood still and everything and everybody moved in slow motion from that point on.
When he produced that Tiffany ring box, I didn’t hear a damn thing else except will you marry me.

Immediately to everyone’s complete horror including Logic’s I began to fiercely shake my head no. “No,
no
I can’t."It's
too
much...
It's
too
soon.
We
just
met.
 
I
hardly
know
you.
What
will
I
tell
my
parents?
”
 

Logic, who instantly recognized my usual spill and my bad acting chuckled, “Stop playing
, Toy
.”

“
Okay
well
if
you
insist.
Yes!
 
Yes!
 
A
thousand
times
yes!"
I continued.

“Zatoya, stop playing and answer me.” He laughed
heartedly
.
“Will you marry me?”

I quickly slipped Tyson’s ring off and moved it to my other hand.
My head instantly begin nodding yes so hard I must have looked like a damn, silly ass Bobble Doll.
“Yes, yes, yes!” I screamed. “Logic Hart I will marry you!”

As Logic slipped the
flawless
twelve carat
tear drop
solitaire diamond Tiffany ring on my trembling
finger
I screamed
as I displayed it for Jade and Queen to see.

Teddy
immediately
popped the cork on a bottle of champagne and everyone clapped and cheered as I kissed Logic hard in the mouth. “I thought
I
’d never
hear those words come out of your mouth
.” I murmured between hot wet sensual kisses.

“I thought you’d never
give
me a
n opportunity to ask you
.” Logic countered as he sampled my lips again.
Toy,
I didn’t say yes on Valentine’s Day because I wanted to be the one to ask
. I’m a man. I wanted to ask
you to marry me
.
Looking back…”

“No,
please
don’t. Let’s never look back. Let’s just look forward to the wonderful life and
the amazing
family that we’re going to have. Okay?”

Logic nodded a definitive yes before sucking my mouth in his again.
Well that was until the voice of reason used Jade’s mouth to speak.

“If we plan to have a wedding today we’ve got a whole lot of shit to do. You two can suck face on your honeymoon. Right now we have to get Zatoya to the hair salon, the bridal salon and the nail salon before the wedding
tonight
.”

“What? We’re not getting married today are we?” I asked dumbfounded.

“Oh yes we are!” Logic declared.

“Weren’t you even listen
ing
?
He asked you would you marry him today.
And what the hell is up with your hair?” Queen complained as she examined a strand of my
finger combed
hair.

“Bitch
,
don’t
even bother to
ask questions you already know the answer to.” I laughed
as I hugged her tight.

Jade was
right. We had a whole lot to do before the wedding tonight. But the first thing I had to do was
to cancel the wedding I had planned for this afternoon. Tell
ing
Tyson would undoubtedly be the hardest thing that I ever had to do. Unfortunately it had to be done.

~*~*~

Over a half of
dozen
unanswered phone calls and twelve text messages later I showed up at Tyson’s home.
I knew he must be frantic trying to find me.
It was around one o’clock when I rang his doorbell. He took one look at me, snatched me in his arms and sobbed like a cold and frightened newborn. He knew instinctively that I had a change of heart.
The wedding was less than four hours away and I looked a hot ass mess. It didn’t take a nuclear fusion scientist to figure out that I was going to be a no show at th
at
wedding.

Holding him tight and consoling him the best I could I let him know in no uncertain terms how important he was to me. “You are the kindest, gentlest and most generous man that I know. You’re my best friend in this entire world of over six billion people. I love you and I would lay down my life defending you. But my soul belongs to Logic. I’m sorry
, I tried to fight it and I tried to dismiss it, but my feelings for him would not go away. I’m sorry, but I can’t marry you.
I would only end up hurting you more than you’re hurting right now.
”

Tyson looked at me as I wiped the tears from his eyes. He nodded that he knew. “I always knew. I just thought maybe I’d be lucky enough to marry you and prove to you that you could be happy with me. I guess I was wrong.” 
 

“I’ve always been happy with you. That’s why you’re my best friend. I could talk to you about almost anything. Unfortunately, I could never talk to you about my feelings for Logic.”
