“You like it, baby?” I asked.

“I love it, Priest. And I love you for doing this for me,” she answered.

I pulled her up against me, wrapped an arm around her waist, and kissed her passionately.

“That’s enough. We want to celebrate our girl too,” Kyte announced and tugged on September’s arm.

September laughed and turned in her direction. She glanced back at me and vowed, “I’ll be back after I spend some time with the ladies.”

I nodded and released her after we exchanged one final kiss.

“How long you gonna keep her in the dark?” Sunny asked when he came to stand beside me.

“Shit, until she brings her little ass back my way.”

“Think she’ll see it before then?”

“Hell nah. She ain’t taking her ass out there, and they know to keep her away.”

“I saw your girl the other day,” he mumbled.

I frowned and glanced away from where September danced with Kyte. “Who?”

“Damn, how fast we do forget. That big-booty bitch that had your dick on lock for the last two years.”

“Oh, Cheekz. How’s she doing?”

“She’s good. She’s pregnant now?”

I jerked my head in his direction. With my arms crossed over my chest, I declared confidently, “It ain’t mine.”

Sunny threw his hands up in the air. “No one blamed you, man. I was surprised to see it was all. She’s in school, doing good, and she’s got a man. Some dude she had known since high school. That’s who she hooked up with again. Apparently, she’d been fucking him off and on all along.”

I nodded. “Good for her.”

“Wanna know how I know?”

“Not particularly,” I replied.

“Ran into her brother a day after I saw her. He told me that she’d been fucking with that nigga all along. Her brother warned her that she was gonna get somebody hurt if she didn’t quit playing those games, but she kept doing whatever she wanted to do.”

I nodded. “How far along is she?”

“Six months.”

“That shrewd, sheisty bitch.” I chuckled.

“What?”

“She tried to trap my ass.”

“Word?”

“Yeah. Kept showing me her tests and how she was clean. I knew that bitch was clean because I made sure she kept her ass at the doctor. I never fucked her raw, but she was always begging me to. I didn’t trust her ass around my condoms, either. I knew she was up to some shit, but I had no idea she was already pregnant.”

Sunny shrugged. “Gotta respect the game, my nigga.”

“Yeah. It’s all good, though, ’cause game recognizes game.”
