All You Need Is Love

Chapter 12

                                                                          (Desire)

My hands shake as I twist the already unlocked door knob.

Before I can even get in the house good I already hear him coming down the stairs.

"Where in the f**k have you been?" He asks.

I want to tell him that that's none of his business because he's not my authority figure but I don't wanna upset him more.

"Um I stayed at Jayda's house because we were up late studying and it was too late to walk home" I say.

Kinda true just a different person.

"Stop that damn lying. You probably was somewhere whoring around but at least this time someone will get paid for it." He says then this real creepy smile spreads across his face.

"Huh?" I ask.

"There's a nice man upstairs waiting for you. I need you to go up there and show him a good time." he says.

My whole body goes limp.

"Huh?" I ask again hoping that I heard him wrong.

"b***h if you can huh you can hear. Take yo ass up them damn stairs."

I collect myself enough to find the energy to try to run out of the front door.

But Dennis catches me before my hand even hits the knob.

He starts pulling me up the stairs.

I'm kicking and screaming but it's just not working.

I still end up in the room.

Dennis throws me on the bed and begins cuffing me to it.

I'm still screaming for him to stop it.

"Man I thought you said she was willing" I hear this voice say over my screams.

I look at this short .. over weight .. tar colored man and scream louder.

"Do you want the s**t or not?" Dennis asks the man.

"I ain't no r****t" the man says then bolts out of the room.

I stop screaming.

"You know you just f****d up right?" Dennis asks me before he strikes me across the face.

All I can think about is Jacari saying he was coming back in the morning to pick me up.

*****************************

(Jacari)

"Let me get a dime bag"

I slowly look around to make sure there's nothing suspicious going on and that there is nobody watching me.

When everything is clear I hand the man his crack and he slides me the money.

I make my way back to my corner standing beside Que.

"What's up with you and that chicken head?" He asks referring to Jacari.

"Stop f*****g playing with me.. you know her name .. use it" I say.

"Damn dude calm down .. I'm just f*****g with you" he says laughing.

"s**t ain't gone be funny when I start beating yo ass for calling my girl anything other than her name" I say giving Desire the title as my girlfriend.

Might as well.

"Nigga it ain't even been a month and she your girl already?" he asks.

"I guess" I say.

"You love her?" He asks.

"More than anything on this earth right now." I reply.

"Ew nigga get this googly lovely dovey sentimental s**t away from me before I catch it" he says making a cross out of his fingers.

"Maybe you need to settle down" I say laughing.

"Nigga please ima senior in high school .. I don't know what that s**t means." He says.

He starts talking about some other stuff but I tune him out with thoughts of Desire.

I can't wait to see her tomorrow.

I finally got somebody to care about.

I feel like she then gave my life new meaning.
