Chapter 12

School started in two days, and I’d managed to keep Rowdy out of my bed since the first night we spent together.

What I wasn’t able to do was keep him off my mind and out of my dreams. Not only did my vagina need a minute to process how unbelievably good his dick was, but so did my head.

I had to have a good talk with my heart, too, because it was way too soon for it to be involved.

He’d sent me a few text messages, and I’d left him on read.

The crazy thing was, a part of me was hoping he’d show up at my apartment and punish me for ignoring him, but no such thing happened.

I wanted to text him, but I didn’t know what to say and was afraid he’d ignore me because I’d been ignoring him.

“You’re walking around like a space cadet, Sis. What’s the problem?” Indira asked.

“Huh?”

“You’ve barely said a word since we picked you up. What’s the deal?” Talia pressed.

“Nothing.”

“Girl, you lie, but you don’t have to tell us because we already know,” Talia said.

“Yep. I wish you would just text or call the man and stop acting like you don’t wanna ride that dick again,” Indira added.

When my sisters invited me to the mall, I only agreed because brunch at Onyx City Eatery was our first stop. If I’d driven myself, I would’ve gone home afterward. I wasn’t a fan of the mall because I usually ran into students, parents, and coworkers, so I did most of my shopping online.

“If I call him, we’re going to have sex again, but I don’t want to get involved with another fuck buddy.”

“Why are you putting him in the fuck buddy category?” Talia asked.

“I don’t know.”

“Maybe it’s because if you allow yourself to think of him as anything more, you’ll fall hard and fast,” Indira suggested.

“Yep. You’ll fall hard and fast, just like you did onto his dick,” Talia teased, and the two of them burst out in laughter.

“I can’t stand y’all.”

“The truth is the truth,” Talia continued.

We went into one of the athletic shoe stores and checked out their selection. Suddenly, I heard a girl’s voice calling a familiar name, and it caught my attention. I turned around and saw Rowdy walking toward a teenage girl who was a few feet away from me.

“Mina, why are you yelling across the store like me and Mama ain’t raise you right?” He fussed at who I assumed to be his little sister.

“It’s a big store. Can I get these?” she asked, her smile stretching the width of the store.

“Ask the lady if they have your size,” he told her.

She skipped away, which left me in Rowdy’s direct line of sight. He looked surprised to see me and almost smiled, but it disappeared before it had a chance to grace his lips.

“Hey,” I greeted.

“Wassup?” His response was dry.

“Was that your little sister?” He nodded. “She’s a cutie.”

“Thanks.”

“This is the last pair in my size. I hope they fit,” Ramina said.

“Those are cute,” I said once she had one of them on.

“Aren’t they? And Rowdy just bought—wait, who are you? Do you two know each other?”

I smiled, but Rowdy still had the stone face.

“We met earlier this week. I had two flat tires, and he helped me out.”

“Oh, okay. I’m Ramina. Most people call me Mina.”

She extended her hand toward me, and we exchanged a handshake as I began to introduce myself.

“I’m—”

“Do they fit okay?” Rowdy interrupted.

“Yeah.”

“Let’s go pay before the line gets too long.”

He walked away, leaving his sister and me a bit taken aback.

“He’s been a little cranky this week. I’m so sorry he took it out on you.”

“Sweetheart, you don’t have to apologize for your brother. I’m Noelani Townsend. Rowdy told me you’re a senior and will be attending OC High School this year.”

“I am.”

“How are you feeling about it? I know it can be hard to adjust to a new school, especially during your last year.”

She shrugged. “I feel okay, I guess. I mean, I’m a little nervous, but I’m kind of excited for a fresh start.”

“Well, if you have any questions, need any help, or if it gets too overwhelming, I’m a social worker at the school. You can come see me anytime.”

“Really?” I nodded. “Oh my God. Thank you so much. I feel so much better about everything already.”

“Good.”

“Mina, let’s go!” Rowdy shouted from the other side of the store.

“He was just fussing at me about yelling across the store, and he’s louder than I was. Nice meeting you. See you Monday.”

“Nice meeting you too.”

I watched her rush toward her brother, and when I looked at him, his eyes were on me. Our gazes locked, and it felt as if he could see through my soul. I didn’t want to be the first to look away, but my sisters’ voices got my attention.

“What?” I answered, annoyed by their interruption.

“Damn, Sis. He had you in a trance,” Indira teased.

“Who?”

“The guy over by the—well, he’s gone now, but we saw you staring at him,” she said.

“Oh, that was Rowdy,” I said nonchalantly.

“Row—wait. That was the man who took you on the ride of your life?” Talia questioned.

“That was him, and he all but ignored me.”

“He’s just returning the favor,” she reminded me.

“Yeah, but he still couldn’t take his eyes off you,” Indira added.

“I fucked up, y’all.”

“How so?” they asked simultaneously.

“I wouldn’t say he was out of sight, out of mind, because thoughts of him have taken over my mind since I last saw him.”

“But,” Talia urged.

“I figured they’d eventually fade away, but seeing him again, I’m not so sure.”

“Well, you have his number. Make something pop, Sis,” Indira encouraged.

“I don’t—oh, shit. Here he comes.”

My sisters turned around because their backs were facing the store entrance. Rowdy continued to walk in our direction, and the closer he got, the faster my heart began to beat. When he reached me, he grabbed my neck, pulled me toward him, leaned down, and pressed his lips against mine.

I was shocked by his actions, but I didn’t pull away. He slipped his tongue into my mouth, and we kissed for at least a minute. When he finally released me, he kept his mouth close to mine and pecked my lips softly several times before leaving a kiss on my nose.

He slowly moved his mouth to my ear, and my nipples hardened as I anticipated what he would do. I’d completely forgotten we were in a public place and may have very well let him do anything to me. His breath was warm against my ear as he spoke, saying, “I’ll be over in an hour.”

I couldn’t get home fast enough, and I knew my sisters would tease me for the rest of our lives about the way I dragged them through that mall, out the door, and through the parking lot to Talia’s car.

She’d barely stopped in front of my apartment building before I opened the front passenger side door. She and Indira shouted jokes at my back as I rushed toward my building.

“Y’all can talk shit, but I’m about to sit on this dick!” I shouted before entering the code to open the door and hurrying inside.

Once inside my apartment, I slipped out of my shoes and pushed the straps of my sundress off my shoulders on the way to my bedroom.

After a quick shower, I lathered my body in my favorite vanilla cream body butter and dressed in a pair of loose-fitting shorts and a tank top, with nothing underneath either.

When I heard a knock on my door, I was startled because Rowdy shouldn’t have been allowed access without me buzzing him in. I tiptoed to the door, looked out of the peephole, and smiled when I saw his handsome face.

I unlocked the door and slowly pulled it open. Instead of waiting for an invitation, he gently pushed his way inside, causing me to take several steps back. Before the door slammed shut, his lips were on mine.

He picked me up, and I secured my legs around his waist and my arms around his neck. Our kiss was sensual, passionate, and hungry. There was a sense of urgency in our connection, and it seemed we couldn’t get enough of each other.

As he pressed me against the door, I lifted my tank top over my head and tossed it to the floor. He grabbed my breasts, pushed them together, and alternated swiping his tongue across each nipple.

“Mmm,” I moaned, letting my head fall back against the door.

I closed my eyes and enjoyed the feeling of him licking, sucking, and biting my nipples while his dick pressed against my center. Suddenly, his lips were back on mine, and we moved away from the door.

Once inside my bedroom, we fell onto my bed. He was only on top of me for a brief moment before he moved to the floor, moved the crotch of my shorts to the side, and buried his face in my pussy.

“My God!” I screamed when he latched onto my clit.

Rowdy ate my pussy like he’d been starving himself since we parted ways and was saving his appetite for this very moment. I came in under two minutes, and when he came up for air, the afternoon sun provided enough light for me to see that his face was shiny and dripping with my nectar.

He stood, removed a roll of condoms from the pocket of his shorts, tearing one off the roll and tossing the rest on the floor.

When he pushed his underwear down, his dick popped up, and my mouth began to water.

I licked my lips as I sat up on my elbows with my eyes still glued to his third leg.

It swayed with his movement, and I was mesmerized.

“As much as I want to feel your mouth wrapped around my dick, I want to feel your walls even more.”

After sheathing himself, he pulled my ass to the edge of the bed, put his arms underneath my thighs, and filled me completely and totally. All week, I’d fantasized about Rowdy doing precisely this, and he didn’t disappoint.
