Love Always Q

Tempers Rising

He pulled up to the CVS. “I’ll be back” she sat in the car. When he came back, he had a pharmacy bag.

"What’s that?” he pulled the box out the bag and gave it to her. She read it. “the morning after pill? Really Quan?” she hit his arm.

“Here” he gave her a bottle of water. She took the pill. He turned on the radio and drove off. He squeezed her thigh.

“Ow! That hurts”

“My bad” about an hour later they pulled up to Montgomery mall. He got out the car and closed the door and walked around the other side to open her door. He shut her door and they walked into the mall. Quan turned one way and she turned the other

“Where are you going?”

“Come on.”

“But I want to go to Armani Exchange Quan!” he started walking the other way and turned around to her.

“You coming?” she rolled her eyes. Two girls then walked over to Quan trying to talk to him.

“Hey” they both said in unison. Malia rolled her eyes. He smiled at her attitude.

“Hey! You coming or not?” they both looked at Malia and rolled their eyes. He walked over to her and grabbed her hand and walked past the girls. Ignoring their envious glares at Malia.

“Why you always got to be so difficult? I’m trying to do something for you and your being difficult.” she looked back at the girls who continued to stare them down and smiled at them.

“I saw that Malia. Why you got to do that?”

“Oh, so they can roll their eyes at me, hating because I got you and they don’t but, all I do is smile and I’m doing something wrong?” he kissed her

“Come on.” he pulled her into a jewelry store and she smiled at him.

“what you going to get?”

“What can I get?”

“Anything you want” he pulled her so that her back was against his chest. Wrapping his arms around her he kissed her neck and then her cheek, before releasing her to pick out what her heart desired.

“Is this your way of trying to make up for last night?” She glanced at him sideways.

“Only if it’s working.”

“I want a bracelet.”

“Alright. Gold?”

“Yes please, I want diamonds too” he shook his head as he watched her smile sweetly... When the sales associate came over, he asked

“Is Marvin here?” she replied by nodding and went to go get him. When he came out of the back, he walked over to him.

“Was sup man?? What you been up to?”

“Man nothing, I been chilling”

“So, what you need today?”

“I need a bracelet a gold one with diamonds for a female…. And I don’t want none of this crappy s**t out here I need something special…. You know what I’m saying?”

“Yea I got you, but you think about what exactly you want and im going to go holla at this cutie ova here” he watched him walk off and over to his girl and he smiled. He could hear the conversation since it wasn’t loud in the store.

“Can I help you with anything beautiful?” she looked up and smiled.

“No im okay, thank you though”

“You sure… because you shouldn’t be buying anything for yourself you too beautiful. Yah man should, and I don’t see nobody else here” she smiled again.

“Look again, because my man is right there.” she pointed to Quan who was smiling at them.

“But thank you. Your sweet.”

“Aw Damn, Q yah man?” he shook his head as Quan came over and put his arms around her waist and kissed her neck. She turned around to Quan.

“This my nigga Marvin. Marvin this my baby Malia.”

“Nice to meet you.”

“The pleasures all mine” Marvin said and flashed a grin.

“you know what you want now baby?”

“no not really”

“Marv, give me something to work with”

“I got you man” he replied and pulled out a piece of paper and a pencil and began sketching a piece.

“Hey baby come look at this” Quan said after Marvin finished sketching the piece.

“I love it!”

“For like 5 stacks more I can get you a necklace and a ring to go with it.” Marvin caught the quick glare that Quan threw his way and he watched as Quan’s eyes rolled heavenward.

“You know you wrong man” Quan laughed knowing Malia was going to want it. Not a second followed before her response followed.

“Ooh! Baby please!!!” she begged with a puppy dog face he looked at her and shook his head. Her eyes lit up brightly and Quan shook his head reluctantly giving in without a fight.

“What am I going to do with her? Go ahead man” she smiled a huge smile that showed all 32’s. God what he would do for that smile alone. He would do anything for her and she didn’t even realize the power she had over him.

“Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!” she said in between kisses. She looked at the drawings one more time it was a heart necklace with a charm bracelet to match. The heart was colored with red diamonds.

“Aye give me a Q as a charm to go on the bracelet I want it in black diamonds” “Alright I got you man…. I can have it to you in about 2 weeks. Good with you?”

“yea man that’s fine” Quan felt Malia’s arms wrap around him tightly. Marvin smiled at her “you ready?” she nodded her head yes. Quan put his arm around her shoulders and looked up from Malias sweet smile “Alright man Il hit you up later.”

“Alright peace” they dapped each other up he guided Malia out of the jewelry store.

“I hope you happy”

“I am” she said with a smile.

“where are we going?”

“Armani Exchange”

“Lead the way” He let her walk ahead just to see her hips sway from one side to the other. He was transfixed on the sway of her hips and ass. She stopped, assuming it was to look through clothes, he gravitated towards his target. Not stopping until his now hard d**k was pressed firmly against her ass. Her body was stiff and rigid. “what’s wrong ma?” He looked up and peeped the the two girls staring at him again. The weaves they had in were 2 months too old, they were low life dirty bitches, that much was clear by the sneaky look in their eyes. He could tell, just as she could too, that they were going to try to start trouble. His eyes locked with Malias and the look told it all. She didn’t give a damn where they were, if they started something, she would finish it. “Behave mama” was all he said before giving her a quick tap on her ass.

She cut her eyes at him but continued and picked out some clothes. After gathering a few things, they went into the dressing room. He sat outside while she tried on the clothes, she came out first with a dress which showed her bruises.

“You like it?”

“If it was longer maybe. Where you think you going to be wearing that at?”

“To the club or something” he gave her a no the f**k you not look.

“Not happening” he replied shaking his head in finality.

“Well somewhere with you” she walked over to him and sat on his lap “that way you can have easy access” His eyes cut to hers for a quick second before shaking his head at her antics.

“I’ll think about it. Let me see the other stuff you got.” she knew he was going to get it for her. She hopped off his lap and changed into some jeans.

“Keep those they look good on your thighs and hips.” she smiled and went back into the dressing room. When she came out, she had on shorts this time.

“I can’t wait until these bruises clear up. Ugh….” she looked up and saw the two females from earlier, one standing on each side of Quan. His face showed irritation. When she left to change again, he was leaned back relaxed in the seat. Now he was tense with his elbows resting on his legs. Quan looked at her

“Baby those look good turn around”

“Tell them hoes to get the f**k out yah face. He doesn’t want your tired asses now keep it moving”

Quan couldn't help but to chuckle. He had been trying to tell the girls that he wasn't interested, but they were birds who flocked to any nigga with bread, willing to do anything that was necessary for a come up. He already knew that no one could even come close to touching Malia, in absolutely no way form or fashion, He didn’t get excited by the hoes anymore. These two in front of my face who were about to get their asses beat were no exception.

“Who the f**k she think she talking to? I know it aint us!” the b***h with the blonde weave snapped

“b***h I’m talking to both of you trash ass hoes! Now step before you get your ass beat!” Quan got up and tried to pull her away from the heated argument that was about to turn into something more.

“b***h if you want to do something come on” she swiftly ducked up under Quan’s arm and he pulled her back quickly “Come on babes”

“Quan get the f**k off me!” he grabbed her by the arms, tightening his grip so that she couldn’t get away. “Quan that hurts, stop!”

“Calm the f**k down then!”

“Oh, that’s what I thought she scared, she knows he wants all this”

“Shut the f**k up, with your dusty ass.” she tried to break lose but he squeezed her arms tighter

“OW! Quan you making my arms turn red” he looked down at them and they were. He let them go but as soon as he did, she swung and hit the girl talking s**t in her mouth.

“s**t” he caught her by the waist just as she lunged for the other girl. Catching her just before she could do anything. He picked her up and carried her into her dressing room.

“Why didn’t you let me go?”

“Because you don’t need to be fighting” he put her down and she sat down and folded her arms.

“You calm now?” she ignored his comment. “get up and finish trying on your clothes, so we can go home” he pulled her up and sat where she was sitting. Still angry she took off the clothes she had on and put the clothes on that she came in with on. He knew she was ready to leave. Quan looked around after coming out of the dressing room, trying to make sure that the girls had left. He did not need that hell in his life. Trying to get Malia calm once she got to a certain point was useless. The woman had issues, granted it usually took a lot for her to get to that point. Most of the times she would remove herself from situations that she knew would get her to that point. Certain things were automatically like a detonate button though. The boldness and blatant disrespect of those birds were one of them. He paid for her stuff and they left.

“what you want to eat?”

“I’m not hungry” she replied, still not over the situation.

“Man, what you want to eat because once I get home, I’m not coming back out and I’m not making nothing either.” she just sat there. “you want chick-fil-a?” she still didn’t respond. He knew she would, so he turned into the drive thru and ordered her food for her. When he got the bag, he looked inside and ate a fry.

“Stop eating my food”

“It’s not yours so hush it up. I got 2 orders.” she rolled her eyes at him.

“What I tell you about that? See Malia, you going to make me f**k you up”

“Whatever” he pinched her thigh. “OWWW!! Quan what the hell”

“You beta stop Rolling your eyes at me then” she turned away from him and stared out the window.

“Aww we being like that?” he tried to turn her head around, but she yanked away. Damn man I was just playing. “baby are you crying?” she didn’t answer him. “babe?” He parked the car outside of their condo. As soon as the car was in park she got out of the car and went upstairs. She didn’t need his key because they kept a spare behind the picture frame next to their door. She unlocked the door and went into the house. A couple of minutes later Quan came into the room. Even though she didn’t cry enough for her eyes to get puffy they were still slightly red and so was her nose. She was laying on the bed watching tv.

“I didn’t know it hurt that bad babe”

“f**k you Quan”

“I know you said that out of pain and anger so I’m going to let that s**t slide”

“you get on my nerves. You knew what you did to my thighs. You knew I was pissed off from you holding me back. You knew this s**t hurt!” she said as she pointed to her thigh. “and then to turn around and pinch my thigh as your leverage when im doing something you don’t want me to….” she hit him on his shoulder and scooted away from him, turning her back away from him. He reached under the covers, grabbed her leg, and pulled her to him. He kissed her.

“get off me I’m so serious right now”

“get that s**t out”

“Quan leave me alone for a little bit okay” he knew better than to leave her alone when it was his she was this upset. He pulled her up to his chest and hugged her tight. She had calmed down a bit, but she needed release. “let it out boo” she had been crazy moody lately, he didn't know what was going on with her, but it was starting to drive him crazy. He would never admit to it though. It would probably just send her on another fit. Hopefully she was just PMSing and it would be over soon.

“All I’m asking for is for you to leave me alone for a few. Okay.”

“Well, I’m not goin to do that” he hugged her tighter more lovingly and placed a kiss on the nape of her neck. And she did what he thought he would do. She cried. He rubbed her back and rocked her back and forth while she cried

“What’s wrong ma? I know it’s more than the pain and the bitches so was sup?”

“you. It feels as if you don’t give a flying f**k about if that s**t hurts me or not. And it does it hurts a lot! Im like why the f**k would you squeeze my thighs and you know they hurt?” he rolled his eyes knowing that she was all the way tripping right now.

“My bad ma. It’s not going to happen again. Alright?” even though he knew it wasn’t just her thighs she seemed to be moody all week that time of the month has to be around the corner.

“mmhmm”

“I’m serious baby”

“Okay” he kissed her on the forehead.

“Can I get a kiss on the lips?” she shook her head no and he hugged her tighter. She let go of him and said

“can you let me go now I want to go to sleep”

“you not hungry?”

“No, I’ll just eat later. So, don’t eat my food.”

He smiled and replied “okay”. He let her go and she laid back down.

“Now give me my kiss before you go to sleep” she ignored him. He leaned over and kissed her cheek and then her nose and lastly her forehead. She smiled, and he kissed her on the lips and she kissed him back. He got off the bed and went into the living room where he put the bags before going into the bedroom to make sure she was okay. He took his food out the chick-fil-a bag and turned the tv onto EPSN to watch football. When he finished eating, he put his trash in the trash can and put her food in the refrigerator. He grabbed the shopping bags turned off the tv and headed into the room he put the bags on the floor by the dresser and laid down by her she turned over and laid her head on his chest. He got his phone out his pocket and started responding back to the text he forgot to when they were out earlier. He read a message from Pat:

“wats good 4 2nite?”

“it’s whatever was sup?”

“im trying to hit up the court s**t, nothing else to do. You coming?”

“yea but wifey going to get mad son.”

“bring her wit you lls”

“Then she going to be even more pissed. You trying to get me f****d up aren’t you lol”

“Man, she can play too I wouldn’t mind her pushing it bac on me lol.”

“Don’t get f****d up. Chill wit that shit.”

“You know I’m just fuckin wit you it’s all good but seriously bring her with you and get her to play ill bring a b***h and we’ll be straight.”

“Alright wat time you want me to come?”

“round 6”

“I’ll bring the ball”

“Alright I’m going to hit u later”

He looked at the time on his phone it was now going on 4 she had been asleep since 2 so “she should be Alright around 5.” At 5 :33 he kissed her on her fore head, but she didn’t move so he moved his arm from under her head and said “Come on ma” she sucked her teeth “Get up”

“Why you always waking me up Quan? Why can’t you just let me sleep?”

“You want me to leave you here by yourself?” she rolled over and opened her eyes “come on, get up ma im on my way out you coming or what?”

She got out the bed and walked past him to the bathroom. He changed out of his jeans and put some shorts and a wife beater on. She came out the bathroom and went into the kitchen to get some apple juice. He followed behind her into the kitchen “hurry your fat ass up” she stuck her tongue out at him and wiggled her butt she went over to the sink and he came up behind her and pushed his d**k on her butt he put his hand around her hips and moved it down to her p***y “you better quit playing or im going to have to teach you about teasing me.”

She smiled and said “and what you going to do? Bore me to death?”

She smirked, and he smirked back “Nah im going to tongue f**k the s**t out you though” she licked her lips and smiled. “now come on” she put her glass in the sink and followed him out the door.

When they pulled up at the court, she gave him a sidelong glance that he ignored while reaching to get the basketball from out of the basketball out of the back seat.

“Quan you woke me up to watch you play basketball? Are you serious?!?!?!”

“Calm down, you’re going to play with me”

“No, I’m not. Who told you I wanted to play with you? Because I don’t.”

“You’ll be Alright now come on”

“No!”

“Who are you yelling at?” she looked away. “come on ma it’ll be fun”

“For you maybe, I don’t even like basketball and you know it”

“Stop complaining and hop out” with that said he shut the door and went on to the court. She got out and went with him. He dribbled the ball “show me what you got”

“You know was sup, I already beat you once let’s not make this a habit” she smiled.

“I won’t let that happen again” he checked the ball and she checked back. He went to shoot the ball but failed when she hit his hands trying to block the shot. She quickly gained control of the ball and shot it in the hoop. They watched as it circled around the hoop and dropped into the net. “let’s make a deal”

"what kind of deal ma?”

“1st person to 5 wins if I win, we get to leave go home take a shower and you have to ……. Do whatever I want tonight but if you win, we can do whatever you want tonight. Deal?”

“Deal.” they checked the ball and started to play he stole the ball from her but when he went to shoot it, she stole it back this went on for about 30 mins when it became tied 4-4 then Pat called. “ehhh timeout … was up? …yea we on the court now…. Alright” he hung up the phone.

“You ready?”

“Nah my man just pulled up we bout to play with him and his girl”

“What!? We had a deal Quan you’re all the way tripping right now!”

“Calm down ma. It’s all good”

“How the f**k is it all good? I’m not playing. f**k you Quan” she said as she threw the basketball at his back.

“What the hell is wrong with you? Calm your lil ass down somewhere” she stuck her middle finger up at him

“Do that s**t again and I'll break it off” she rolled her eyes and sat down on the metal benches that were set up around the court.

Pat and his girl came into the court and he dapped him up and said what’s up to the girl.

“What’s wrong with your girl she looks pissed the f**k off man”

“She is” he started to laugh when he looked over and saw her stick her middle finger up at him again. “she mad because she didn’t want to come then I made a deal with her that the person who won the game gets to decide what we do for the rest of the night. That’s when you called. We were tied up and it was game shot. He laughed more.

“Damn you f****d up” he laughed with him. Pats girl walked over to Malia. The girl who had a natural beauty to her, the kind where you can tell she was a good person in.

“I heard what happened I would be pissed too.” Malia smiled at Pats friend

“I don’t even like basketball and he knows it and he knew I was already tired”

“You good?”

“Yea I’m straight. I’m tired and pissed off but straight” she said as she yawned

“Aye come on young” Quan hollered from across the court she leaned back and put her feet up ignoring him. He sucked his teeth.

“Aye Zyia come on” she walked over to pat “see my girl listens” he said lowly with a smirk right before Zyia reached them. He walked over to her.

“Come on with this s**t you making me mad”

“I don’t care. Did you care that I was tired? Did you care that we had a deal and you broke it? Do you care that I don’t feel good and I want to go home and go to sleep? Yea… I didn’t think so get the f**k out my face Quan”

“Alright man come on let’s go home.” He sighed exasperated with her antics. Every now and again she had her small mood swings, but she usually was calm mannered.

“Go play the stupid game I don’t care”

“Yes, you do. Now let’s go”

“No, go play”

“I can't it’s not going to be even. If I left you in the house you would've been mad, I brought you out to have some fun and now you still mad.” he chuckled to his self.

" I'll play but I’m not playing on your team. Zyia and I, against you and pat” he laughed.

“Seriously?”

“Dead serious”

“Alright, well bring that ass on so you can get this L”

Zyia and pat checked the ball they decided to let the ladies have the ball first she passed the ball through Quan’s legs to her and Malia and Malia shot the ball in the basket. “We only going to 3”

“Q you aint tell me she could play man, because Zyia can play too”

Quan laughed and said “damn.” In the end the girls ended up winning by one. They laughed at the guys faces as they saw Zyias winning shot spin around the rim and slowly drop into the hoop. “NAH MAN I want a rematch we went easy on yall lets play for real now” the girls laughed at pat.

“Nah me and Quan had a deal you and Zyia can play if yall want but we out of here” pat looked at Quan and he shrugged his shoulders

“Sorry man, boss lady said no. You already had me out here getting cursed the f**k out.” He dapped Pat up and everyone said their goodbyes.
