He’s a Thug, but He’s My Thug

Chapter 9: Slumber Party

The thought of Da'Vontae coming over and trying to get back with me rattled my brain. I damn near ran into a tree while walking Nevaeh and myself home. If she didn't yell my name, I would've been throwing up bark and branches for days. She asked me what was wrong and why I wasn't paying attention to what I was doing and where I was going. I didn't want her to worry so I just told her I was really tired and I hadn't had any sleep for real. She asked me if I was going to be ok and I simply nodded. "I can ask Howard if he can come pick me up from school for a few days so you can catch up on some sleep." Oh, my baby sister. I loved her so much. She was the sweetest little girl in the world. Always caring about others more than others would for her. My mother did right by naming her Nevaeh (which is "heaven" backwards for anypne who didn't know) because she was truly heaven sent. Remembering what my mother told me, I had to tell her that Momma said Howard isn't allowed to pick her up any more. When she asked why I just shrugged my shoulders and said "Beats me."

Nevaeh and I walked into the house and I decided to call Tyree to let him know I had just dropped my sister off and I was getting my bag and headed out the door in about two hours so I could get Neveah done with her homework. He said ok and told me to meet him up the street from his house when I was done. I agreed and we hung up. I made Neveah dinner and told her I would be at Tyree's house working on a project and told her to call if she needed me. She nodded and went to go watch TV and eat her dinner in the kitchen. On my way out the door, I saw the glass from the window I shattered in Da'Vontae's car. An instant flash back of todays tragic event played in my head as I walked to Tyree's house. I mean I ain't gone lie. I missed and loved Da'Vontae more than anything but I just couldn't deal with us no more. The constant cheating and being mistreated just wasn't for me. Other hoes might stick around when their man does it to them but not me. I ain't about that life. I think I found someone better for me anyway.Once again, I stopped paying attention to all of my surroundings until I heard a familiar voice yell "Annah, watch out!" I immediately snapped out of my deep thoughts and saw Tyree running towards me. I heard a lound sound and turned around. Oh my God! I car was heading right towards me with no intention of stopping either!

Before I could even move to jump out of the way I felt myself being lifted off the ground. I looked and saw that Tyree had picked me up out of the middle of the street and took me to the other side. My heart was now racing and was skipping beats. He sat me down on the sidewalk so he could put his hands on his knees and catch his breath. I brought my knees to my chest, folded my arms and continued trying to calm myself down from my near death experience. Tyree finnally caught his breath then looked at me from the corner of his eye. "What the hell is wrong with you?!" He yelled at me. I hugged my knees with a confused look on my face. What the hell was wrong with me? "I-I don't know, Ty! I-I-I was walkin' to your h-house and I-I blacked out! I just blacked out and the next thing I know, I'm damn near road kill!" I put my head into my knees wondering how stupid I could be to just black out like that! I wanted to cry because not only did I put my own life in danger by not paying attention to my surroundings but I also put my best friend in danger, but I knew I had to be strong for the both of us.

I heard Tyree suck his teeth and say "Its ok, Shawty. Here." I looked up and saw Tyree's hand reaching out to me so he could pick me up off the ground. I took his hand and he pulled me into a tight hug quicker than a flash of lightening. He held me tight and said "You can't be blacking out while you walking in the street! What if I wasn't here to save you? Don't you ever scare me like that again, Annah! I don't know what I would do if something happened to you!" I saw him looking down at me and I looked into his eyes. I saw that he was holding back tears and that just killed me inside but I had to stay strong for Tyree. He hated seeing me cry, that's why I never ran to him with boy problems because I could feel him hurt just as much as I was, if not more. I looked him into his eyes and told him I will be more careful. "Promise?" he said holding out his pinky finger. I giggled at our childish ways as I wrapped my pinky around his and said "I promise, Ty." He pulled me closer and kissed my forehead. "Come on" I said. "We got alot of work to do." he nodded as he grabbed my book bag off the street that had fell out of my hand when Tyree had swooped me up out the street.

We finnished our project in about 3 hours and Tyree asked if I wanted anything to eat. I shook my head no while staring at my phone. He asked if I was thirsty and wanted some Kool-Aid a few minutes later and I shook my head no once again, continuing to look at my phone. I was getting irritated! Not by Tyree though, by Caine. What on Earth was he doing? It was now 9 and we hadn't talked since school. "You sure you don't need no Kool-Aid? You look kind of thirsty waiting for that text!" Tyree said to me. Ugh, that was one thing I couldn't stand about that boy. He was always saying a b***h is thirsty. I sucked my teeth and looked at him before saying "I'm not thirsty, just impatient!" I rolled my eyes and then went back to my phone. Tyree layed on his bed as I sat on the floor in this bean bag he had."Come up here." He said lookin down at me. I did as he said and layed down next to him. I layed my head on his chest and he put his arm around me. "I love you, Annah." he said to me. "I love you too, Tyree." I replied. "What time you have to be home?" I shrugged my shoulders. "You know my momma and Howard be out 'till like 11:30 at the latest." He nodded agreeing with me as I yawned. "Long day?" he asked. I nodded saying "You have no idea." "Go to sleep, I'll wake you if it gets too late." I nodded and fell asleep in his arms. It wasn't for too long because an hour and 30 minutes later I got a call from Caine. I looked at Tyree and saw he had also fell asleep. Hmm. Wake me up if it gets too late my ass!

"Hello?" I answered in a whisper, trying not to wake a sleeping Tyree. "What's up, Shawty?" I heard Caine say on the other line. I looked at my phone and saw that my phone said it was 10:30. "What was you doing that had you busy since we got off the bus?" I questioned. I sat up so I wouldn't disturb Tyree. "Chill ma, I was making this money for us!" "I have my own money, Kendrick." "You've made that clear with the way you keep yourself together, Shawty! I want you to save that money and let me spoil you." Spoil? Even though I have guilt money thrown at me from both biological parents and step-parents I was not the spoiled type. Although, I could use the money they gave me and put it in my savings account for my appartment along with the money I get from the restaurant and Hollister and whatever money I get from Caine, I would just use for personal game. It was perfect! I wasn't trying to use Caine for his money. I really did like him before I even knew he was trying to spoil me. I finally gave in and said ok. "Can I ask you something?" Caine asked. "Yea, of course, anything." I replied. "You know how I asked you to come over tomorrow?" Oh no, he's going to blow me off! I can't believe this. "Yeah, why?" I said trying not to sound hurt. "I want you to spend the night." "What you just say?!" I asked in shock.

Was he serious? I never spent the night at a boy's house other than Tyree's. "What about your parents?" I asked. "What about them?" He asked me, somewhat mockingly. "Won't they have a problem with me spending the night?"

"They ain't gone be here, boo. They gone be gone all weekend! Now is you down or what?" I wasn't sure. Was I? I really wanted to spend time with him outside of school and I guess a night cap would give me that chance. Yeah, it would. Wait. What about my parents? I guess I could have Nevaeh tell them I was going over Molly's house and leave before they even get home. What if Molly, Deonna, or Tyree calls? I'll just tell them I'm with my Dad for the night. "I'm down." I finnally responded. "I knew you was! I'll hit you up later, I got some more business to tend to." Caine said to me. Now what business was he talking about? Oh well. It doesn't matter, it ain't my business. "Ok, boo." I said to him before hanging up. I looked at my phone and saw it was now 10:47. I should really be getting home now. I woke up Tyree and told him I was leaving. He offered to walk me home but I told him to go back to sleep.

"I'm up now! I can walk you home!" He said to me.

"Tyree, just go back to bed, man." I assured him.

"No, man! What if you black out again?"

"I won't"

"But what if you do?"

"I won't, Tyree!"

"I'm walking you home! Even if you don't black out, some old creepy man might try to take advantage of you!"

"I'll be fine, Tyree!"

"I know you will, because I'm walking with you and that's that!" Realizing he wasn't going to take no for an answer, I gave up trying to win the battle. He grabbed my bookbag off the ground and his house keys before we walked out the door. It was a 5 minute walk from his house to mine but with him, it always felt shorter because we would spend time joking around and talking. He walked me to my door and kissed me on the forehead. "Good night, Annah!" he said to me. "Good nigt, Tyree." I replied before walking into the house. I changed into some sweat pants and a tank top, brushed my teeth, then got in bed. I texted Caine for a while then went to bed.

~*~

Okay. Today's the day. I'm spending the night at Caine's. I just couldn't wait to spend time with him tonight. I imagined what would happen when I got over but it was relivant what would happen some time tonight. The day just seemed to drag though! Why was it taking so long to be the end of my last hour? To pass the time, I listened to my Pandora. Ironically, it was playing songs like Pretty Ricky "Get You Right", "Late Night Special" and Aaliyah "Can I Come Over." Only reason I chose not to complain and groan was because I loved those songs, but it just made me more impatient and ready to get another taste of Caine's lips. Even though he kissed me every time he left me to go to class, I still missed those perfectly soft lips of his.

RING , RING, RING!

Finally! Its time to get out of this shitty place! I tried to calm myself and not seem to excited but I just couldn't help myself. I put my books in my locker and impatiently waited on my crew. They needed to hurry up! The faster I get on the bus, the faster I can get ready to get Nevaeh. The faster I get Nevaeh home, the faster I can cook for her and get my stuff ready to leave across the street. I know it may seem like I'm acting like I hadn't had d**k for months but I hadn't because of you know who, who shall remain nameless cheating ass. "Hey Anne!" I heard Molly from behind me. About time! "Damn, could y'all walk any slower?" I asked sarcastically. "We could try." Deonna said sarcastically as well. "Quit playing, y'all" I told them. "What's your rush any way? I thought you hated being with yo step-mom!" Deonna asked. Almost forgetting the lie I told them, I was quick on my feet and thought of another lie. "I don't. I just don't feel like hearing her or my Dad's bitching this weekend."

"How come 'Vaeh ain't going?" Molly asked. Damn, why were these hoes so Curious George like today? I thought of another lie and said "They just wanted to have us at different times this weekend." Okay, even I must admit that that was a terrible lie. I was going to tell them eventually what I really was doing, but not now. It was just too soon and I didn't want to jinks anything either. We waited on Tyree for another minute and he finnally arrived. We walked on the bus and took a seat in the back. I saw Caine get on right after we sat down. He saw me and walked to the back of the bus. "Hey, Ma!" He said smiling and winking at me. I smiled back and said "Hey, boo." He turned back around in his seat after winking at me one last time. Oh my gosh, I could not wait for tonight to come.

We finnally got of the bus and I hugged Tyree good bye and gave Caine a hug and kiss before he went into his house. He knew I had to go get my sister and cook her dinner first so he decided not to trip which was good. I went in the house and wrote on two sticky notes saying I was going to Molly's house for the night. One for Momma and one for Howard because only Lord knows which one would come home first. I walked to Nevaeh's school and waited for her to come out. What the hell was taking her so long? Ughh.. I'm getting real irritated with people being so slow today. I realized I needed to calm down and stop acting sprung cause nobody likes a sprung b***h so I decided to read a book on my iPhone that I had while waiting for her to come out. About 2 minutes later I saw Nevaeh walk out the school. I put up my phone and gave her a hug. "Ready to go?" I asked her. She nodded and we started to walk home.

On the way home I realized I needed to get Nevaeh to go along with my plans as well. Which means I needed her to lie. I know she hated lying and I didn't want her to lie, but I needed her to! As long as she doesn't know its a lie it won't be a problem. We got closer to the house when I realized it was time to tell her my "plans" for the night. "Ok, Nevaeh, sweetie, Momma number 2 needs you to do something. Ok?" She nodded. Nevaeh would sometimes call me Momma number 2 and I would call her Daughter number 1 because I took care of her more than my own two "mothers" would and she was more like a daughter to me than a sister at times but right now I needed her to be my baby sister, not my daughter. I would never have my daughter lie for anything, but desperate times call for desperate measures. "What is it?" She asked me. I got in front of her and got on my knees so I could be face to face with her. "I'm going over to Molly's house tonight and I'm going to leave after I make you dinner so if Momma and Howard ask where I am I need you to tell them 'She's at Molly's' Ok, Sugar?" I told her. "Yeah, I got it, Annah." she said like I was talking to her like she was some retarded baby. I got back off my knees and said "Good."

We finnally walked in the house and I made Nevaeh her favorite: Chicken with this special sweet and sour sauce I made, cheese and garlic potatoes, and green beans. While she ate I went to go pack some things. Since I was only going to be across the street, I decided I would only get the neccessities: phone charger, deoderant, sweat pants, two tank tops, a pair of ripped jeans, my toothbrush, lotion, etc. You get the point. I called Caine to see where he was at and luckily he told me that he was home and the only business he had to tend to for the night was me. I told him I was on my way and to unlock the door before hanging up. Before I walked out the door I kissed Nevaeh on the forehead and recited the usual rules I gave her when she would be home by herself for a long time. She gave me a hug and I walked out the door. I looked down and saw the glass was still on the ground from 'Vontae's car. I almost had got upset untill I saw Caine's front door open. I instantly smiled and walked to his house. "Hey boo." I said smiling at him. "Hey baby." he said smiling back and taking my bag out my hand. "That is so sweet of him!" I thought. Until he dropped my s**t. "What the hell, Kend-" I started but before I could finnish he put his hands on my hips and started tongue kissing me. I finally gave up trying to be mad at him and wrapped my arms around his neck and started kissing him back.

After a few seconds he stopped. I was kind of upset that he did but I guess I would get more of that later. He picked my bag back up and said "Come on." I followed him to his basement which was where his room was I assumed. Correctly I might add. His room was big to be a basement room. He had a walk in closet, a flat screen hung up with his Xbox and PS3 under with a case of games right next to it infront of a big love seat. His bed was big too. He had a king size bed in the left corner of his room. He sat my bag next to the bed but I sat on the love seat and he sat next to me. "Wanna smoke?" he asked bluntly (no pun intended). I nodded and said "Yeah, sure." We rolled 3 blunts and was higher than NASA spaceships about an hour later.

"Damn, I'm blowed." I giggled. I put my hands on my face but I could still see him through my fingers. He looked at me and smiled. "Take yo' hands off yo' face, Shawty!" he said removing my hands. He then started kissing my lips and I kissed his back. It soon turned into a make-out session after a few minutes, which was what I wanted. He grabbed me by my waist and put my body under his and started kissing me more. I could tell that we was about to have some fun with this. We soon started to rub and feel on each other and he was touching spots 'Vontae never touched before. Spots I never knew even existed! These spots caused me to let out light moans when I soon felt something down by my crotch area and his too. I was wet and he was, well, more than hard. I opened my eyes and looked down at his member poking me in his basketball shorts. It was more than what I expected to be there, which only made me want him more. I closed my eyes again and started biting and sucking his lips and he did the same with mine. I soon felt my leggings and thong being pulled down and I did not plan on stopping him. Next thing I know he stopped. I sat up and looked at him. "Why you stop?" I asked with so much lust in my voice.

"Just making sure this is what you wanna do." He replied. Can't he see and hear the lust in my eyes and voice? Of course this is what I want. "I wouldn't want anything more or less right now, baby." I said to him. He smiled and I could see that he had lust in his eyes too. Ugh, this just made me want him and his member even more! Why was he playing with my hormornes? He soon continued to take the rest of my clothes off and started sucking on every part of my body and I knew I was going to wake up with some hickies in the morning. I took off the brown wife beater he had on that showed his muscles and tattoos off oh, so well and saw his sexy 8 pack. Damn, his body was banging. I looked toward his member and saw that he had a "V" line. It only turned me on more! I took off his shorts and boxers and started to kiss him on the lips and suck his neck. I heard him let out a deep sigh, trying his hardest not to moan. I could tell that he wanted just as bad as I did, but not more! He soon stood up, picked me up, and carried me to the king size bed. I saw him go in his dresser for a condom and saw it was Magnum. "So he f***s with them gold wrappers?" I thought to myself. "That's what's up! For real though!" He put the condom on and climbed on top of me. He put it inside of me and it felt so good. I told him to go deeper and he did as I said.

About 2 and a half hours and 3 magnums later we had finnished. It was no need to stunt, he was WAY better than Da'Vontae. Da'Vontae was good but he was my first so I knew there was going to be others better than him and Caine, Caine was one of those people that was way better. "You good, Ma?" said Caine interrupting my thoughts. I looked at him and giggled. "Yeah, I'm real good, babe." "You ain't never lied!" He said kissing me on the cheek. I laughed at him and pushed him off of me. I got up and put on his wife beater that he had and sat on the love seat. He sat up and looked at me like I was crazy. "The f**k you doing over there?" He said to me. I looked at him and looked at the TV watching some Made For BET Movie before replying. "I thought you would like to have some space to cool off." He shook his head and laugh. "Naw, Ma. Come back to bed." I smiled and walked back to the bed. I got in bed and climbed under the covers. Caine smacked my bare ass before putting his arm around me. I rolled my eyes at him and just closed my eyes before falling into a deep sleep. I was so tired now. Sleeping with Caine was all I wanted right now.
