great,” he said, slurring. “I’m going to keep you.”
    â€œOnyx, just get some rest.”
    â€œOmar.”
    I paused. “What?”
    â€œMy name . . . it’s Omar,” Onyx said before he drifted off into a deep slumber. I stared at him for a moment, realizing he was out for the count.
    I crawled over to my side of the bed. The moment I lay down, Onyx turned over and placed his arm around me. I could feel his manhood against my ass. He fell asleep with me in his arms. Even though he was in a drunken state, I couldn’t help but smile. I didn’t know if he would remember telling me his name in the morning, so I would enjoy the moment for tonight. Anything was better than nothing.

Chapter 13
    Unfamiliar with having a hangover, as it was something I’d never experienced, the next morning I Googled “morning hangover remedies” just to be safe. I kept it simple. I mixed up my personal pancake batter and made my strawberry-banana smoothies.
    Sluggishly, Onyx walked into the kitchen, with his hand on his forehead, the moment I turned off the blender. “That thing is loud.” His raspy voice filled the room. “What time is it?”
    â€œTen,” I said as I used my perfect pancake batter dispenser to pour batter onto my griddle. I pour some of the smoothie in a glass. “Here.” I handed him the smoothie.
    Onyx drank half of it in one gulp. “Man, this is just what I needed. I have no idea what I was thinking last night, drinking so much. I don’t remember what happened. I woke up and didn’t know where I was for a moment. Then I remembered I knew only one person with such a heavenly bed.” He smiled.
    â€œYou don’t remember, huh?”
    â€œNot really. I know it was my brother’s birthday, so we turned up at the club last night. You should have been there.”
    â€œI was,” I said, shaking my head. “Well, I came to help Miguel. I saw you for a moment. I figured that’s why you came over here afterward.”
    â€œBabe, I was so out of it. . . .” Onyx drank more of the smoothie while staring at me. “Thank you for last night. I’m pretty sure I didn’t take my own clothes off.”
    â€œI just gave you a little help. No big deal.”
    â€œNo.” Onyx reached his hand out and touched my arm. His eyes were locked on me. “It’s a big deal, a very big deal. After the way we ended things, you could have left my black ass outside. But you took care of me. I need you to understand how much I appreciate you for that.”
    I felt an overwhelming feeling coming over me. I felt like I was going to cry, but tears were not forming. I didn’t know the feeling that I felt for him, but I had never felt anything like it before. I was scared, ecstatic, anxious, and nervous all at one time. I knew this wasn’t some crush or a feeling of lust that I had. It had to be more. I started to question whether there was really love at first sight, because if there was, I was now a victim.
    â€œOnyx, I’m sorry about what happened. I didn’t want to come off as clingy or anything like that. I just wanted to hear from you,” I said softly.
    â€œI get it, and I overreacted. I apologize for that as well. I just . . . I still feel like you need something that I’m not going to be able to give you. You don’t deserve to get fucked, Coral. You need someone to truly make love to you, and as much as I wish that could be me, I’m just not in that place right now.”
    Now the tears were starting to form. I walked over to my refrigerator, just so he didn’t have to see me. I stuck my head in, hoping the cool air would dry up the water forming in the ducts of my eyes. A few tears fell, but I was able to dry them and regain my composure.
    â€œCoral, are you all right?” Onyx asked in his beautiful, sincere voice.
    â€œI will be fine. I understand what you are
