Chapter 14 #2
“See. You seem to forget, keeping our relationship a secret from him was your idea. I don’t give a fuck if he finds out.
Can’t no nigga whup me, brother or not. If you think I’m gonna sit around and let you play in my face, you don’t know your man at all.
I’ll shoot a nigga in his dome and then drag your ass outta this bitch.
Try me and see.” His lips were pressed against my ear as he threatened me.
I shouldn’t have been turned on, but I wanted to jump his bones right there in the section.
“Hey, boo. Can you come with me to the bathroom? Kiara had to take a call, so she dipped out, and Valor is drunk as fuck and tryna suck Logic off out in the open. I’m two seconds from calling an Uber and sending her ass home.
I can’t stand when she acts like a bird.
” Summyah huffed. Valor was male-centered, so I wasn’t surprised to see her embarrassing herself for a man who barely paid her any attention outside of the bedroom.
“I got you, boo.” I grabbed her hand and turned to leave without saying anything else to East. My feelings were still hurt about his nonchalant behavior this morning.
We fought through the crowd to get to the bathroom, and it was an even longer wait to get back to the section.
East kept texting me to make sure I was straight, but I kept my answers short.
When we finally made it back, I noticed more people in the area.
One person in particular was this chick by the name of Donnika.
She went to Douglasville, and we shared a few classes.
She and her minion of bitches were all over my brother and his friends.
East sat back in his seat not paying them any attention, and I smiled when I saw him pull out his phone.
His brows were bunched together as he typed on his phone.
Mine vibrated in my handbag, and when I took it out, I smirked.
Lil’ Ugly BD: You good? Are you taking a shit or something?
Lil’ Ugly BD: I’m ready to go home and cuddle. This shit is played out.
East could only stand to be out for so long. That was the reason we rarely went out together. He was ready to go within the first hour, while I liked to stay until the club closed.
I got ready to respond when I saw Donnika try to sit in my man’s lap.
East quickly moved his legs, making her fall to the floor.
All I saw was red, but there was nothing I could do, because Keynauri was sitting right next to him.
East might have been nonchalant about my brother finding out about us, but I didn’t share those sentiments.
Keynauri was extremely overprotective, and I knew he would have an issue with me being with one of his best friends.
Eventually, we would have to come clean, but he was fresh out, and it wasn’t the right time.
I sent a message to East, but his response pissed me off.
Me: You better not have let that hoe sit in your lap. The next time a hoe touches you, I’ma show my ass.
Lil’ Ugly BD: Come do yo’ shit then. You walkin’ around here actin’ like I ain’t yo man. Why do you care?
I saw the grin on his face and knew he was trying to set me up.
Me: Play with me if you want to, and I’ma find someone’s lap to sit on. You know this liquor makes me horny, don’t make me show you how single I can be.
When I glanced up, I saw him looking around for me. When his eyes landed on mine, he mouthed the words, “I’ma fuck you up.” My coochie thumped in response, but I tried to keep my face neutral.
Summyah and I decided to get back to dancing after we took another round of shots. Donnika and her bitches were trying their hardest to get attention. It was almost embarrassing. When she bumped into me, I pushed her ass back.
“Bitch, keep your dirty hands to yourself.”
“I got your bitch. You must want my attention because there was plenty of room for you to move around. What? You want to sit on my lap since my nigga curved your thirsty ass?” I hissed.
“Thirsty? Oh, please. You stay posting him, but I never see him posting you. Trust me, if you weren’t around, he would have been all in my face.
Niggas like him don’t have a faithful bone in their bodies, and your young ass doesn’t know how to handle a man like him.
He’ll eventually get bored with you and move on to something better,” Donnika shot back.
“I’m not worried about anyone taking my place, but even if my man did decide to fuck another bitch, I can guarantee it won’t be you.
He doesn’t like ran-through bitches, and he definitely doesn’t like musty ones.
You’re doing all that shit talking, and you smell like you’ve been bathing in onions.
You need to add the aluminum back into your deodorant.
Rotten-pussy hoe. My brother just got released from prison, but I don’t mind being the next one to go in. ”
“Well, I’m sure he’ll be right back in. He was in there so long, I’m sure he probably has a little boyfriend in there. He was probably in there taking dick the same way you were taking your stepfath—”
My fist connected with her face, and I didn’t let up until someone lifted me off of her. She ripped the bottom of my top, but it wasn’t bad enough for me to leave.
“Aye. What the fuck was that all about?” Keynauri yelled in my face.
“I tried to let it go, but she wouldn’t stop pressing me.”
“You’ve gotta be smarter than that. All it takes is one wrong decision, and it could cost you everything. You have a daughter to live for. It’s time out for that hotheaded shit,” he fussed.
“She was talking shit about you being in prison, and when she brought up Tone, I lost it. I’m sorry. You know I wasn’t tryna ruin your night.” I hugged myself as I focused on the floor like a child who was in trouble.
“Come here.” Keynauri wrapped his arms around me, almost making me break down in the club. “You don’t need to fight anymore. I’m here now. Let me carry the weight from now on.”
I nodded my head, realizing he made a valid point.
My anger got me into a lot of messes, and I needed to learn how to control myself.
A part of me wanted to ask where East was, but I didn’t want to out myself.
Instead, I pretended everything was okay and tossed back another shot.
Keynauri gave me a questioning look, but I promised him I would be on my best behavior.
East eventually returned to the section and took his seat next to my brother.
Keynauri was more of an observer, so I wasn’t shocked to see him sitting down.
He was more than likely taking it all in and reflecting on being free.
Summyah grabbed my hand again, and we attempted to salvage the rest of the night.
I hyped her up while she twerked in front of me.
We continued with our night until we were both tipsy and giggling.
When they played another banger by Meg, I threw my ass back like I was taking back shots.
