Philip was born in a religious home, Obedient parents in a strict society where everything good came from the norms. He felt suffocated and trapped in there but, now? He was actually surprised to enjoy his normal life with the religious Aiden.
Waking up to a handsome man next to him, praying before, fooling around and then freshen up together... What more can he ask God to give him? He was lucky and blessed enough!
"I don't want to say to goodbye to you" Whined Aiden in the car where he was dropping Philip off at the salon parking lot.
"Haven't you had enough of me?" Asked Philip feeling his ego rising like yeah! He scored, y'all!
"How can one even get enough of you?" Questioned Aiden with genuine curiosity, burying his face in Philip's wig. It was Aiden's favourite wig actually.
He loved how the wig made Philip look. Like this untouchable ebony goddess who can destroy his world with a twirl of her finger. Yeah, he was down bad.
"Tell you what..." Started off Philip trying his best to peel Aiden off him with no success, "You are making me run late when I'm already here! You bad diabetes giver!"
"Can I pick you up earlier today?" Pleaded Aiden humbly making Philip to have gone speechless. What the heck is his problem?
"No you can't! You have your work and I have mine. Some room to breath, thanks?" Replied Philip with an attitude never seen before.
"Okay, okay...! Then, text me when you are free. Let's spend every free second we have together" Compromised Aiden with a helpless shake of his head.
"I'll see you later honey looh" Waved Philip as he got down from the car only to witness Jake's walk of shame from the next car.
"None of your business, I didn't no one last night, No comment! Nothing!" Said Jake killing an interrogation before it even started but, on the contrary it only made Philip more curious.
"You slut!" Gushed Philip the second they were in the salon. It was relatively clean so, he could only use the time to prepare for the day.
There website appointments were booked to start an hour later so, they had plenty of time to spill the beans and tea.
"Have you refilled the shampoos and hot water already?" Asked Jake after freshening up and a change of clothes.
"Yes, boss. I even restocked the hair extensions and accessories on the shelves. Please, tell that wasn't the old cheating geezer earlier" Probed Philip getting invested. He hated the guy.
"No, she's not" Replied Jake with a hidden smile. He one of those perfect nights and they didn't even have sex!
"A she?" Asked Philip confused before slapping playfully Jake's hand and dragged him to sit beside him, "Tell me everything!"
"I saw that called last night though. Everything alright?" Asked Jake worriedly.
"I would have died if I needed your help but, I just wanted to make sure that you arrived safe. So?" Perked up Philip before their door was opened and Aiden got in.
"Hi, Aiden!" Greeted Jake excusing himself leaving them two alone.
"Hey, Jake. Care for some breakfast? I bought too much" Offered Aiden reminding them how much they were starving.
"You shouldn't have" Said Philip embarrassedly but, was immensely touched.
"Oh, you are an angel brother in law!" Praised Jake as he took a couple from the parcel.
"Look at you currying favors and sucking up to my boyfriend" Teased Philip with a sharp tongue making Jake laugh at that.
"Then, this is goodbye" Said Aiden before kissing Philip goodbye.
"I have a feeling I have found my Aiden" Said Jake as they watched him leave.
"I didn't see your 'Aiden' with a breakfast in the office, though" Mocked Philip with the roll of her eyes.
"That hurts but, it's a fact" Muttered Jake before he hugged himself, "But, I never felt anything like it before yesterday! I think I'm in love"
"And you are certain it's not a hit and run situation?" Questioned Philip skeptically.
"We didn't even have sex last night" Said Jake with an impressive smile.
"That's always a good strategy! Saving yourself for marriage, I mean" Supported Philip sarcastically making Jake laugh aloud. Their sense of humour is so twisted, he loves it!
"Fuck you!" Cussed Jake before regaining his composure, "She just made me feel like... A princess!"
"I'm glad you have found a good thing last night" Commented Philip feeling happy for him. He never saw that twinkling in Jake's eyes so, whoever that was? He was grateful to them.
"So, what's her name, address, occupation, social media accounts, horoscope, bloodtype, parents phone numbers..."
"Okay, Dad I'm sure I can just abort the baby and heal my broken heart so, hold your horses" Joked Jake as he went on "But, her name Aileen Timothy, a doctor and a charity addict, funny and smart with a sense of dark humor, heartless, selfish and a savage but a sweetheart on a good day"
"Should I be concerned?" Asked Philip worriedly when Jake made a dramatic to fall to Philip's lap., "Please do mama!"
"She's a runaway bride and her partner is sweet and understanding that I feel for him too!" Aggrieved Jake in dramatic pain.
"I don't get it"
"Me either! But, I want to used by her, make a mess of us and lose myself in her boyfriend... I want them both!" Blubbered Jake not really sure if he made sense but, well, it's what he was feeling. And his feelings are valid too.
"So, she knows that you want her ex fiance?" Asked Philip helpfully.
"No, I don't think so but, she too wants him. She's just not the commitment type... Oh, I'm so excited and scared at the same time!"
"That's when you know you are serious about something" Explained Philip calmly, "I'm truly happy for you"
Just when they were in love with their relaxed pose, their first customer got in and a busy was a head away.
