Intentional cheating

Marino had been waiting for this day for a while, having taken more than 3 months to finally move into his new house. He had used up all his savings to furnish his new house and he was ready to start living with his girlfriend of 6 years. The inner decor was superb and looked more beautiful than what he had hoped for.

Being the only child  his parents had remained with in the country after his two siblings left to study abroad, he had no responsibilities that could weigh him down. His girlfriend came from a well off family that could pay the dowry if the two decided to get married. He had been dating Cassie for 6 years having  met in high school during one of their school function.

He arrived at his new place  Past six o'clock. He had informed Cassie that he would go straight to the house and they should meet there because he had travelled to his parents for a house-warming party. 

He entered the gate and was greeted by a fit,6 foot guy who smiled and waved at him as he drove past the  house that seemed to be his. He gave him little attention and waved back as he parked the car next to a Windgril.

He then took the stairs and headed up. Moments later, Cassie car drove in. She was wearing a short mini dress that was meant to suggest something.  She parked next to Marino car and took her phone out to call him. "The phone cannot be answered  at the moment 'was the answer she got when the 'neighbour came out. "Excuse me ,are you looking for someone," startled and for a moment lost in thought staring at the guy, she answered 'Yes, I'm looking for the owner of this car, he just moved in here and I don't know his exact apartment.' "Oooh, you mean the guy who came in while ago. I also don't know ,maybe try calling him.'  " I've tried and he aint answering."

"Your boyfriend will soon come down,I'm sure he left something's in the car,don't worry.' Cassie looked like she wanted to oppose that statement but she couldn't and didn't want to.They started convesing and she could be seen smiling often. Moments later Marino face was seen in the window looking at the two people talking. He then slowly pulled the curtains together and headed downstairs. 

Having not seen him, Cassie didn't not even notice when he called from the opposite direction. It was The neighbor that pointed out that he was calling her name out and that  she should get to him. She turned and saw Marino , Waved at him as she ran and hugged him with a passionate kiss. He sluggishly hugged her back as he led her upstairs. They were escorted by a stare from the neighbor as they disappeared into the darkness. 

"Babe you have a nice neighbor, I was almost givig up and turning back but he convinced me to wait , I thought you had gone somewhere after getting here.' she said as she pushed through the outer door of the hallway that led into sitting room. 'Im sorry, I don't know where I kept my phone," Marino seemed disturbed and he could be seen grinding. 

"Babe it's fine , Wow it is  really a nice house, the decor really stands out. Cant wait to move in." She said as she sat on the three legged chair next to a sofa set.  Marino was not paying much attention as he was busy arranging some of his belongings in the other room.  

Not receiving any answer she followed him into the room. She then unzipped her dress when she saw him  arranging books in one of the shelf in the closet  " Let me help you with this,"She said as she took some few books from his hands. The eye gave away because she gazed at him for a while still holding the books. He looked at her and the tension grew. How they moved to the bed didn't matter, the work hard he had done the past hour was destroyed in seconds as they tried to grab to anything that was grabable.

"I love you Hunnie can't wait to become your wife and build a home together. " Cassie said while clogging herself in Marino's arm. The mess was there but he didn't care as he took her closer and edged her to his muscular body. 

"What do you think of the neighborhood, he asked as he stroked her hair. "Haven't looked around to know what it looks like but all I can say is it has good neighbors." His face changed immediately, he lifted his hand towards the other end. "Ooh my God, You are jealous." Cassie said turning his face towards her. " Babe we are past that, told you I don't have eyes for anyone else, so stop with these insecurities, it's you I love and will love for the rest of my life." She then looked at him seductively, "Kiss me" he gave her a mouth peck."Babe , what iam, your cousin, I said kiss me." He leaned in and gave her a much more deeper kiss but she wasn't satisfied. "When I say kiss me, this is what I mean". She took him, grabbed his chin and tongue waging gave him a kiss so passionate that he forgot he was mad.

They did not notice that it was now darker, having fallen asleep moment's after engaging themselves to rearrange the room.

Cassie could not leave to head home,she had to spend the night. They prepared supper later and relaxed themselves on the couch to watch the movie.

Next morning they were woken up by a knock on the door. It was Cassie who went to  see who it was, she was in a baggy T-Shirt and booty short which gave more than what people should not see. It was the neighbor, "Hey morning, sorry for waking up you this early, I needed someone to move your car is that I could take mine out. " He said pointing at the two cars which were slightly parked outside his main entrance. "Sorry I didn't even notice I had blocked you, " she then headed in took the car keys and they both headed downstairs. 

She moved the car and parked it outside the peripheral of the building. "I'm sorry for the inconveniences," he said as he stretched out his hands to introduce himself."By the way I never introduced myself yesterday, I'm Lenox ," She told him her name and headed upstairs. 

Lenox drove his Audi, and soon disappeared into the empty space. Marino was still sleeping when she came back and she headed back into bed. She took his arm and wrapped herself in it. "Who was that" Marino asked turning his head. "It was Lenox" "who is Lenox" "The new neighbor, we got" what did he want" ' He just wanted me to move my car so that he could take out his." 

He seemed unsatisfied, he got up and headed to the kitchen. She noticed he was avoiding eye contact and followed him. "WHATS WRONG", She asked as she leaned on the kitchen counter "Nothing " he said as he took a chunk of lavendah and thrushed it in his mouth. " You don't look fine, is it the neighbor again," I said I'm fine , can you just drop it. " She looked at him as he took a cup of tea heading to the sitting room.

They later left in Cassie Car to head out. He was dropped at his work place as she headed to run some errands before going to her house.

Lenox was a well built guy . He lived alone in a mansion built in  a neighborhood surrounded by flats and nice apartments, if you were new you would probably think he owned all the buildings because they was no one living in such a house. He was nice to everyone who he came across and this made him likeable to many people if not all.

Everyone wanted to associate with him to atleast get a taste of his house but he seemed perfectly fine. No one saw anyone with him, I'm talking about girlfriend, friend to talk the least neighbors.

He only used gestures when greeting people and rarely spent more than a minute taking to anyone. Judging by his lifestyle, he seemed like the only child his parent had. Although he didn't act spoilt all his other factors indicated that. He was in his early thirties probably thirty two, had a snark face though more pretty than most of people's girlfriend. He had a masculine chin that gave him a manly look.
