I turned around fast.
“What’re you talking about?”
“Jordan dumped her after finding out who she really is.”
Kyree stood up.
“And she’s with someone better than him now.”
One of the cheerleaders bit her lip in a flirty way.
“And you are?”
“Kyree. Sophia’s new boyfriend.”
Cam and Michael looked at each other than us. I winked at them so they knew it was a cover.
“Well, aren’t you just a fine ass-”
I slapped her across the face before she could finish her sentence.
“Walk away before you wind up like Serina, clinging on for your life.”
They got freaked out then walked away so we sat down.
“Boyfriend?”
“It was the first thing I thought of.”
“I mean, I wouldn’t object to it. You definitely could do better than Jordan plus we like you more.”
Cam nodded his head in agreement.
“Ain't that the truth.”
“So wait, you two would allow us to date?”
“I mean, I don’t hate the idea but don’t get smart with us.”
We looked at each other and I smiled.
“Can we wait a little while? I don’t want to rush into anything.”
“Of course. Take all the time you need. I will always be here.”
I put my head on his shoulder then he kissed the top of my head. We ate dinner and split the check and the tip. We were walking out and Kyree had his arm on my shoulder.
“Well see you trouble makers tomorrow.”
“See ya!”
We were about to get on the bike when I saw out of the corner of my eye the cheerleader that I slapped walking towards me. I turned around and walked up to her. The whole crew got off of their bikes.
“What?”
“You think you can hit me without a fight?”
The girls walked towards me and put their hair up. I waved at them.
“Minor. You can get sent back to the box and I can't have that now can I?”
“No boss.”
I turned back to her.
“No videos, cops, jumping, hair pulling, or attacking after.”
“Deal.”
I put my hair up and I saw Kyree standing there next to Cam and Michael.
“Strike first.”
They always take that as a challenge. She swung at me but I squatted down and came up with a right hook. She stumbled back and could keep her footing. I kicked her legs out from under her and struck her one last time to make sure she was down then walked back to the crew and took my hair down.
“Well, that wasn’t much fun.”
Kyree laughed.
“That was something else.”
I c****d my eyebrow.
“That was nothing.”
I heard the sound of someone getting up so I turned around and saw that she was back on her feet. I walked up to her.
“Free shot. Hit me.”
She hit me in the shoulder and I literally didn’t feel anything.
“Seriously? Come on girl I just embarrassed you in front of gangbangers and your boyfriend!”
She swung again and this time she hit me pretty hard.
“There you go, do you need a second?”
My crew started laughing.
“I’m good.”
“You sure?”
“Yeah.”
Her boyfriend and her friends came outside finally.
“Come on. There is no need for this.”
“Talk to her, she came out here and started this with me.”
“What?”
“We were going to leave but she came out looking for a fight and well, she didn’t put up much of one.”
I laughed.
“With how much she puts out, I’m not surprised.”
Everyone started laughing, including a few of her friends. She looked at them.
“Sophia, you never had to do her like that.”
“She put herself out there! Literally!”
My crew started laughing. I pushed her to the ground and walked away. Kyree and I got on the bike and we left. We got to the house and walked inside.
“I’m going to get my stuff and take a shower. That cool?”
“Yeah, you live here, remember?”
I rolled my eyes.
“I forgot.”
I walked into my new room and grabbed my shower stuff then went into the bathroom. I started the shower, got undressed, and got in. I let the hot water hit my skin and I washed away the pain, the hurt, the tears, the anger, everything. I scrubbed my skin until it was red.
I washed my hair as many times as I could and shaved. I got out and walked to the spare room. I heard laughter in the living room so I went in there to see what was going on. Kyree was sitting there with his friends and as soon as he saw me he ran in front of me.
“Why aren’t you dressed?”
“I didn’t know they were here.”
He took a breath and looked me up and down.
He said under his breath, “Damn you’re sexy.”
“No. NO. Stop.”
“What?”
“You are about to unleash a whole side of me you are not ready for.”
He bit his lip.
“Maybe I am.”
“No, you’re really not.”
I walked back to the room and changed into a pair of shorts and oversized band tee shirt. I dried my hair then walked back to the living room. Kyree was on the edge of the couch and smiled when he saw me.
“Better?”
“Very much.”
I rolled my eyes. I walked up to him and he pulled me onto his lap. He started running his fingertips along my thigh and it sent shivers down my spine.
He whispered to me, “You’re wearing that lingerie tonight.”
“Who’s making me?”
“You don’t want to find out what will happen if you don’t. I will tie you to the bed, shove a dildo inside of you, put a vibrator on your c**t, put them on the highest setting, and make you watch me masturbate.”
My eyes got wide.
“Now, are you going to be a good girl and listen to daddy?”
“Yes daddy.”
We hung out with his friends for a little while before they finally left and he told me to go get in the lingerie. I put it on with a little bit of makeup, used some products to curl my hair, and heels.
“You changed yet?”
“Go to your room and sit down.”
“Okay.”
I heard him go down to his room.
“I’m sitting.”
I walked down the hall and stood in the doorframe.
“Holy fuck.”
“What?”
“Come here.”
I walked towards him and sat on his lap. He started grabbing on my butt and kissing my neck. I pushed him down so he was lying on the bed. I kissed his neck then pulled his shirt off of him. I took the heels off and he rolled me off of him. He started kissing me while his hands trailed all over my body.
He slowly started going down and bit my inner thigh. He moved the lingerie to the side and started fingering me. I grabbed the blankets as I moaned. He pulled them out and sucked the c*m off of them. He pulled his pants and boxers off and I started giving him head.
He grabbed as much of my hair as he could and started making me go faster so I started gagging and choking. He pulled my head back and made me get into arch. He slapped my butt really hard then when I whimpered as he rubbed it. He put a condom on then rubbed the tip on my c**t. He shoved it in causing me to moan loudly.
He started slowly getting faster and more aggressive. He kept his hands on my hips forcing me to take all of it. He pulled my hair and slapped my butt really hard to make me get louder. I came so fast when he started doing this plus his moan was so sexy which made me even more wet. I felt him slow down and pull out.
“Ride me.”
He lied down and I looked at him as if he'd lost his mind but he was dead serious. I slowly got on top of him and put his d**k inside of me. I slowly went down and boy did it hurt and feel amazing at the same time. I started riding him while his hands guided my hips up and down, casually making me go faster. I saw the look on his face and he looked like he was trying not to c*m.
“Are you about to bust?”
“Yeah.”
I got off of him, took the condom off, and started sucking. He pushed my head all the way down and came down my throat. I got up and laid down next to him.
“That was, holy-”
“I know.”
He turned to his side and looked at me.
“What?”
“How in the world are you so amazing?”
I blushed really hard.
“Cap.”
“I’m not lying Sophia. You are amazing in every way and I’m not just saying that. You amaze me every second we are together. How beautiful you are, book smart, street smart, graceful, amazing body, voice of an angel, looks that make me fall for you, eyes so gorgeous you can get lost in them, and a smile that can kill.”
I just stared at him.
“What’re you saying?”
“I’m telling you that I’m falling harder and harder every single moment that we spend together and that I notice the small things.”
“Like?”
“At dinner, the look of hurt when they were being rude to us, when you saw those kids during dinner with their mom, how you wanted that. I saw the sparkle in your eyes when you were with me and your brothers.”
I was speechless.
“I don’t know what to say.”
“When we were at the bar, how you looked at everyone with respect. How you watched everyone's every move. How you look out the window in the car to see what all is going on in the town. How unattached you are to your phone. How you protect your people no matter what.”
I sat there in shock.
“You noticed all that?”
“While you sleep you twitch. Scared me at first but after I realized what it was, I thought it was cute. I notice the little things all the time.”
A tear fell from my eye.
“Oh no, don’t cry mamas.”
“That was really really sweet.”
He wiped the tear from my cheek.
“Do you want me to bring you to the bathroom?”
“I think I can get there this time.”
He chuckled.
“But can you grab my shorts and shirt from my room?”
“Yep.”
“Thank you.”
I got up and slowly walked to the bathroom. I got in there and did what I had to do. I pulled the lingerie off and waited for him to bring my clothes to the bathroom. I sat there for a minute when I heard a knock on the door. He walked in and handed them to me.
“Here you go.”
“Thank you.”
“Can I ask you a question?”
While I got dressed I answered him.
“Sure. What’s up?”
“Do you miss Jordan?”
I looked at him.
“Why?”
“I just wanted to know.”
I took a deep breath.
“And you won’t be bothered by any answer you get?”
“Nope.”
“Sometimes. There are moments where I think about him then I push it out of my head. And then there are times where we do something and I think about a time where me and him did it. Then I remember what he said then I focus back on you.”
“Do I remind you of him?”
“No. I mean, there are some things you do that he used to do but with you, it feels different. It feels more natural and right other than with him it felt forced. Like, he didn’t want to do it but with you it feels like you enjoy being with me and it feels like you’re truly happy.”
“Because I am.”
“And after you told me that, I realized it. I feel more comfortable with you and better about myself.”
He smiled.
“Okay.”
I put my shorts on and got up. I washed my face and brushed my teeth then we walked back to the room. I laid down then he laid down. He pulled the covers over the both of us and held me while I drifted asleep. I thought about everything that we said to each other and I thought about everything that has changed in the course of three days.
I woke up to the smell of something being cooked. I got up and walked to the kitchen to see Kyree standing there cooking and listening to 2000’s R&B. I walked up to him and hugged him from behind and kissed his shoulder.
“Good morning.”
“Good morning beautiful.”
“What’re you making?”
“Pancakes and bacon.”
“Sounds and smells good.”
“Why thank you. You’ll learn that I am a very good cook.”
“Same here.”
He turned to face me and gave me a kiss. He finished cooking then handed me a plate. I set it down and made some coffee. I poured the both of us a cup and handed him his.
“Thank you.”
“No problem.”
We sat down and ate breakfast and it was really good.
“Is this cinnamon and vanilla in the mix?”
“Yeah, how’d you know?”
“Cam and Michael would attempt to make me this with chocolate milk for my birthday.”
“Attempt?”
“Two teenage boys in the kitchen alone? Bad idea.”
He started laughing.
“It became a tradition for us. Every year on my birthday we would have cinnamon and vanilla pancakes with chocolate milk then go to the park and eat ice cream from the ice cream shop.”
“That sounds like fun.”
“It was. Since we were kids we would try to do anything for each other to make our birthdays a little better since our parents didn’t care.”
He shook his head.
“That’s sad.”
“I know. That’s why my brothers and I are so close. Because growing up we were all we had.”
“That’s me and my sister. I grew up raising her because our father left shortly after she was born and our mom was a drunk. So I grew up too fast to raise her so I learned how to cook, clean, do hair, everything.”
“Cam would braid my hair for me because my mom would never let me cut it. So when I moved out I got it cut short and dyed it.”
“Wait, Cam knows how to braid?”
“He’s surprisingly good at it too.”
He started laughing.
“Oh this is funny.”
“I know.”
“I love your hair though. It looks really good.”
“Well thank you.”
“After breakfast I’m going to take a shower then we are going to finish getting all of your stuff from your old apartment then we are going to the stores to get stuff to decorate the house because I want to make it look a little more alive.”
“That’s fine with me.”
“Alright.”
He finished eating then kissed me on the cheek. I cleaned up the kitchen and did the dishes before going to the room and getting dressed. I put a baby pink tube top on with black ripped jeans and my e-girl boots. I did my hair and make up. I put my leather jacket on and went to the bathroom. He was still in the shower so I brushed my teeth really fast.
“What’re you doing?”
“Brushing my teeth.”
“You’re already ready?”
He pulled back the shower curtain and looked me up and down.
“How are you always so sexy?”
“Nah, look in the mirror.”
“I have to look nice today instead of bummy.”
“You still look good when you dress bummy.”
“Well today I have to try to look good.”
I chuckled.
“Don’t take forever.”
“I’m about to get out.”
I walked out of the bathroom and went to his room. I sat on the bed and waited for him. He turned the water off and a minute later he walked into his room. His body was still wet and his towel was around his waist. I bit my lip as soon as I saw him.
“You like what you see mamas?”
“Very much so.”
He walked up to me and grabbed my throat then started kissing me. I pulled away and looked at him.
“Get dressed.”
“Tease.”
“Yup, when you get dressed I’ll give you another kiss.”
He rolled his eyes and got dressed. He wore black jeans and a plain white tee shirt. He brushed his hair and went to the bathroom. He came back a few minutes later with a durag on and I immediately got wet.
“Holy fuck.”
He looked at me.
“Holy f**k what?”
“Holy f**k you just went from a ten to a fifteen.”
He started laughing.
“What?”
“Don’t ask but when you put that durag on…”
I bit my lip and slowly looked him up and down as he walked towards me. He got on top of me and started kissing my neck and the little bit of my stomach that was showing. He came back up and started kissing me as he teased me through my pants.
“Damn you’re really wet.”
“Only because of you.”
He smirked then kissed me again. He got up then put socks and shoes on. He brushed his teeth then came back to his room.
“Ready to go?”
“Been waiting for you.”
“Haha, come on.”
I got up and he grabbed my hand. We walked outside then he locked the door.
“We also need to get a new lock for the door and two keys.”
“Deal. I don’t want them walking in on us.”
He started laughing.
“True.”
We got in the car and went back to the apartment. I didn’t see Jordan’s car so we walked inside and grabbed the last of my things. I left my key on the coffee table in the living room then we walked out. As we were leaving I saw my old neighbor.
“Hey, are you moving?”
“Yeah, Jordan and I broke up.”
“Ah I’m sorry.”
“Yeah, but I’m moving in with someone better for me.”
He looked at Kyree.
“Him?”
“Yep.”
“Not in any rude way, but how is he better than Jordan?”
“I am more myself with him than I was with Jordan. He doesn’t try to control me like Jordan used to and I’m just happier.”
“Well, as long as you are happy that’s all that matters. I hope you are making the right decision.”
“I am and thank you.”
He smiled then walked into his apartment. Kyree and I put the last bit of my things in the trunk then we went to Hobby Lobby to get decorations. We got some rugs, tables, candles, fake plants, and some other things. After loading it all into the car we decided to go pick something up for lunch and start decorating the living room while waiting for my bed and bed frame to get to the house. We picked up some tacos then went to the house. We laid the rug down then I built the coffee table while he put the candles up and fake plants.
“Sophia, should we go to Walmart after your bed and bedframe get here?”
“For?”
“Stuff for your room and to get more stuff for the house.”
“Why not. I did get my bonus and the money from the hit I did.”
“How much do you get paid per hit?”
“Depends on their status. The guy that I did was seven hundred.”
“Seven hundred dollars?!”
He came back to the living room to see the table done and put where it needed to go and the sitting area looking good.
“That looks good.”
“Thank you. I decorated the apartment when I was there.”
“Wow. But for real, you got paid seven hundred to kill him?”
“Yep.”
He shook his head.
“Why don’t you act like you got a lot of money then?”
“Because i’m smart with it. It’s better for me if people don’t think I got a lot of money so they don’t start asking me for money.”
“Well, that’s a great idea.”
“Yep. I don’t like blowing through money either.”
“Smart though.”
Before I could answer him there was a knock at the door. The boss walked in.
