CHAPTER
EIGHT
Tiomi
Things had been weird between me and Jawan at home. He wasn’t really speaking to me, only when it was necessary. He was gone by the time I got up in the mornings, but he was always home to have dinner with Rae and me, give her a bath, then he was gone again.
He wasn’t sleeping in the room with me, only coming in there to get clothes and toiletries.
I really didn't know what to think at this point. Star and Chy had met me at Applebee’s so we could have lunch.
Star had finally let us know that she was moving back to Miami, and her brother was breathing better.
“I don't know what to do y’all. I explained to him that I didn't invite Romeo to her party. I would never disrespect him like that. I'll admit he asked me not to go back to that house without him, but I’ve been waiting on my stuff for school to come.” Star gave me a sympathetic look because she knows how her brother is.
“He’s a Gemini, he can definitely hold a grudge, but he's not going anywhere, he loves you and that baby way too much to leave.”
When she said the L word my breathing hitched a little, neither of us had said it to each other.
I know for a fact that I loved him, I’m just scared that he didn't feel the same.
When the waitress got our orders, the both of them ordered alcoholic drinks with their food, while I opted for water.
Once she was gone Chy cleared her throat,
“Since when do you skip happy hour? You love their drinks friend.” I wanted to tell Jawan before I told anyone else, but he’s been giving me the cold shoulder.
“I’m pregnant.” I paused for a second. “I went to my annual this morning and she told me I was eight weeks. My pregnancy with Rae was high risk, so I know this will be too. I just want us to get along. It breaks my heart that he goes above and beyond to avoid me and hurt my feelings.” I literally just found out that I’m pregnant, and I’m already emotional as fuck.
“Oh baby, he’s going to come around, I promise. If he doesn’t, I’m going to beat his ass myself,” Chy said and Star co-signed, both of them circling their arms around me.
“Who ass you gone beat?” I heard from behind me.
Turning around I was face to face with my newfound baby daddy. Seeing him standing there looking good enough to eat made me cry even harder. Damn this baby!
“What you in these people shit crying for, Tio?” he asked me as he pulled me from my seat. Looking up into his eyes, I hugged his midsection.
“How’d you know I was here?” Giving me a knowing look, I just shook my head.
These bitches talk too much. “You’ve been so mean to me lately, I miss you so much, and I’m so sorry that I didn't listen to you. I had no business going over there alone,” I rambled; I was just glad to be in his presence.
He’d been sleeping in the room with Rae, so I hadn’t been able to interact with him much.
“I haven’t been mean to you, Tio. You just spoiled and hardheaded as fuck. Get your stuff and come on man, got snot running all down your nose and face and shit with your crybaby ass.” I pushed him a little and covered my face in case he wasn’t lying.
“No, it’s not asshole!” I laughed and told the girls we would have to rain check lunch because I need to go home and make up time with my man.
Jawan must have missed me just as much as I missed him because we were all over each other as soon as we got in the house, we didn’t even make it out of the foyer before we started.
Lifting me and carrying me into the dining room, he laid me back on the table and took a seat as if he was about to enjoy a meal.
Pushing my legs back to my ears he began to devour my pussy, paying special attention to my sensitive clit.
“Oh my God, Baby, just like that.”
I all but screamed with my hand on the back of his head.
Grinding my pussy into his face, searching for that familiar orgasmic feeling that only he can provide.
What took me to the next level is when he inserted two fingers into my pussy as he continued to feast on me.
After he quenched his thirst, he pulled me up, grabbed the back of my neck to bring my face to his and sloppily kissed me.
“You see how good that pussy is, Baby?” I was nodding my head up and down.
“I need to feel you now, Daddy.”
That was all that needed to be said before he was seated and pulled me down onto his dick.
It doesn’t matter how many times we’ve done this; I could never get used to his size.
I worked my way down his rod until it was all the way in then started to ride him at a slow steady pace.
In between moans I let him know, “I missed you so much,” I revealed as I rotated my hip.
“Shit,” he hissed, grabbed my ass cheeks, spread them apart and started to fuck me from below. “I missed your pretty ass too baby, got damn this pussy wet as fuck.”
He was fucking me so good that I couldn’t even form words. My eyes were in the back of my head, my nails had broken his first layer of skin I’m sure from the way that I was clawing at his back.
“Don’t get quiet on me now, Tiomi, talk yo’ shit.”
“I-I-I can’t.”
Still serving me with deep strokes, he said, “You can’t what shorty? Don’t tell me you can’t take this dick. You want me to stop?”
As I shook my head from left to right, he said, “Naw tell me what I wanna hear, I don’t know what none of that shit means, Baby.”
“P-p-please don’t stop!”
Chuckling and speeding his strokes up, he smacked my ass twice. “I wasn’t stopping anyway.”
I know we were in our kitchen, but this time felt different, we were making love. Not saying that we haven’t had slow, sensual sex before, but you could feel the love pouring out of us. I felt my climax coming.
“Mmmmm, it’s coming baby, shit it’s coming!”
Speeding up his strokes from under me, he smacked my ass and said, “I know, I feel it. Let it go baby, I’m right behind you.” After a couple more strokes I was cumming, hard, and he was right behind me. Once I caught my breath I looked into his eyes.
“I love you. You don't have to say it back because I said it to you, I just want you to know how I feel.”
Kissing my lips to stop me from continuing, he said, “You talk too much, girl. I love yo’ fine ass, too.”
Tapping my left leg for me to get up, I followed behind him, grinning, to our bathroom to take a shower where we went another round. After our shower, we laid in bed talking, so I figured this was the best time to break the news to him.
“I’m pregnant,” I blurted while he was in the middle of talking.
Leaning up to turn the light on, he looked at me with a stern expression, “You serious?”
His face didn't really hold any expression, which made me nervous. I was sure that he would want this, he’s mentioned it a million times.
“Yeah, eight weeks. I know Rae is barely one, but I want my baby, Jawan.”
Scrunching his face at my response, he replied, “I know you want my baby; fuck is you on? Why you just now telling me?”
Rolling my eyes, I said, “You haven’t talked to me all week, you made it your business not to be here when I was up.”
Laughing lowly, he pulled me on top of him so that I was straddling him and said, “So my baby is having my baby?” He grinned, rubbing my nonexistent belly. “I knew I had that super sperm!” I joined him in laughter, I’m just glad he wants this just as much as me.
Since Jawan made me quit my job, I had a lot of free time on my hands. I’ve enrolled back in school to do my clinical’s, but I have a couple of months before that starts.
Wednesday is Jawan’s light day at the shop, so I decided that me and Jarae would have lunch with him today. The baby was craving soul food, so we headed in the direction of Charlies. Me and Rae sat at the counter since I was placing a to go order.
“She’s beautiful,” I heard from beside me, turning in that direction, I heard, “Do you mind if I sit here?”
I was temporarily caught off guard by how fine he was, regaining my composure, I shrugged, “It’s a free country.”
Charlie needs to hurry up because the last thing I need is somebody telling Jawan I’m in here entertaining anybody.
“I don’t mean to be so forward but you’re beautiful, would it be too much to ask for your name?” he asked me with an outstretched hand.
Against my better judgement, I offered my name and a handshake. “Hmm, beautiful name for a beautiful lady. I’m Terrance by the way. Could I treat you and your little sister here to lunch if that’s not asking too much?”
Sighing at his question I tried to think of a way to let him down easy. While he was very charming, I was very taken. Charlie heading our way with food was my saving grace.
I grabbed the bag from her and picked my baby up. “Um, Terrance is it? I appreciate the gesture, I really do, but I do have to decline. I’m in a relationship, and he is extremely crazy. Have a good day and enjoy your meal,” I said before I turned to walk away.
Lifting the bags from my hands, he said, “At least let me help y’all to the car.”
Again, I went against my better judgment and let him help, it wasn't like he was giving me much of an option anyway. Once I was seated and situated in the car, I got ready to pull the door closed but he wedged himself between it. He grabbed a hold of my hand and kissed the back of it.
“Okay beautiful, y’all drive careful.” My body tingled at the gesture. I loved the fuck out of my nigga, but this man was fine as fuck and I’d be lying if I said he didn’t have me smitten. I gave him a small smile and thanked him for his help.
I rode from Charlie’s to Jawan’s shop in complete silence. Although I didn’t do anything wrong, I was still consumed with guilt. I know I don’t want him flirting with another woman on any level. In a way I felt like I was cheating.
I was so deep in my thoughts I didn’t even realize I had pulled up to the Faded. Parking and grabbing a sleeping Jarae, I headed inside. Since she fell asleep, I’d send Jawan out to get the food.
When I made it to the office door, I went to grab the knob, and the door came flying open.
A thick chick with a short haircut came walking out and she had a sarcastic smirk on her face as she looked me up and down.
If I didn't have Rae in my hands, I would have knocked it right off her raggedy ass face.
Quickly moving past her, I walked into his office with my attitude very present.
“Who the fuck was she, Jawan?” I asked loud enough for everybody in the shop to hear.
Sucking his teeth, he stood to his feet and came to grab the baby.
“She ain’t no fuckin’ body. She a barber that Joe hired last week to work in the empty booth up front.
Nothing more nothing less. Don’t start tripping on me.
” Following him over to the couch he was laying Rae on, I propped my hands on my hips.
“Nigga don’t trip. You in here closed the fuck up in your office with some bucket head hoe and you don’t want me to trip?
Then she comes walking out with that smirk on her face like she knows something I don't. Make it make sense my nigga because I’ll beat both of y’all asses in here.
” I was tight, because had this been me, he would have blown a gasket.
“Baby that bitch ain’t no fucking body. How many times I gotta tell your pretty ass that you got me? You, Jarae, and our new baby are my whole world, I wouldn’t mess that up for her bald head ass.” I laughed at his response as he wrapped me in his arms.
“I don’t want you closed up in here with her Jawan. There is no reason for her to be in here at all.”
I already could tell she was gone be a problem, but I’m the problem solver.
I would beat this hoe to death over my man.
That and I was a little insecure with how I looked right now.
Jawan let me know how beautiful I was on a regular basis, but I also know the type of women he encounters on a regular basis.
“You got it, Babe, what y’all doing over here?” That reminded me that he needed to go and get the food out of the car.
“Me and Rae came to have lunch with you today, let me go get the food right quick.”
Stepping out of his embrace I headed to my car, but not before making a pit stop at little Ms. Bald Head’s station.
All of the conversation had ceased as I made my way over to her.
They know how I get down, but she isn't too familiar yet. She could keep the fuck on, and I’d give her a front row seat to the action.
With a smile on my face, I stepped in her personal space.
“I don't know what type of timing you’re on arm and hammer, but Jawan is very taken. Now you get a pass today because he said you’re new and I’m sure you don’t know no better, but my best advice is for you to move the fuck around because I’ll gut your bald-headed ass like a fish about mine, aight?”
I didn't need her to answer, so I went ahead to my car to get the food to feed my man. That was the only warning she would get from me, so if she knew like I knew, she’d take heed.
When I made it back into his office Jarae had gotten up, or her father had woken her up.
He handed me the baby and told me to change her while he got the food and stuff set up.
“Who the fuck is Terrance Sherman?” he asked, and my stomach dropped. When I looked in his direction, he was looking at what I’m assuming is a business card with his handsome face all screwed up.
“Um, I don’t know. A guy that helped me to the car with Rae when I got our food.” With that revelation his scowl deepened.
“Helped you to the car? What you cripple or some shit? He touched one of y’all?”
Shaking my head rapidly, I replied, “No, Baby, he just carried the bags. He must’ve dropped his card in there when we were walking to the car.” Examining the card for a few more minutes, he ripped it in half and threw it away.
“Bruh, if you need help, you fuckin’ call me. I don’t need another nigga doing shit for my bitch, aight? Where the fuck was your detail, why couldn’t they help?” Shrugging my shoulders, I just realized that I didn't see the detail until I got back on the road.
“I let him know I had a man baby, and that he was crazy as fuck.” I smiled up at him as I wrapped my arms around his neck.
Laughing at my statement, he wrapped me in his arms. “Yeah, he gone find out soon enough.” Sharing a kiss, we let the subject go to enjoy our lunch.
