| Believe Me - ~FIN~ |
| ~~*~~ Vanessa�s knees� buckled and she sat down heavily on the coffee table. �Damn that man knows how to get to me.� She thought viciously. �How dare he just waltz back in here and expect me to drop everything for him. He probably thought I�ve been waiting patiently for him to show up. Screw him. Dammit he�s been out of my life for almost five years and I sure as hell didn�t need him now.� Vanessa� s fingers unconsciously went to her mouth, her lips still slightly swollen. �Damn he knows how to kiss.� She shook her head, shaking the memory of his lips pressed to hers form her head. �Oh who the hell am I kidding?� She asked out loud, dropped her head on her hands. From the minute she�d opened the door she�d been a goner. The short glimpses she'd seen of him had not done him justice. He�d changed a little over the years. His arms were now adorned with tattoos. And his hair was little darker. He�d put on muscle in all the right places. The tattoos gave him a reckless air. The mustache he now wore made that damn sexy smile even sexier. The few times she�d seen him on television had been difficult. It was too hard to watch him and know she couldn�t pick up the phone. To tell him how great he was doing. Or ask if he was okay when he went down hurt. �I can�t do this again.� She mumbled. �He�s getting out of a bad marriage. I won�t be the rebound chick.� Nessa stood angrily, �So he�s decided it�s time for us. To hell with him. I don�t run my life by his time schedule. I�m just supposed to fall in line cause he snaps his damn fingers. I don�t think so.� Nessa walked down to the car, ordering the driver to rush so she didn�t miss her flight. Nessa angled her head to the side when she heard the song on the radio. �Turn that off.� Nessa snapped. Then closed her eyes as the song continued to play in her head. Vanessa stared out the window; wiping the tear that slid down her cheek, wondering if she�d made a mistake. |

When I said it would suit me fine If you were out of sight and out of mind That wasn't me talking That was my wounded pride When I said I didn't want your love And you were no one I was thinking of Believe me baby I lied Believe me baby I lied |
