“Not an option. What else you got?” I smirked. I didn’t know if he knew I had slept with his brother or not, but I wasn’t that kind of girl. Yeah, I may have slept with Buck after one interaction, if you could even call it that. That was something I wanted to do. I was far from a toss-up, so he was barking up the wrong tree.
“Damn, my bad.” He threw his hand up in mock surrender. “Lemme get a Corona, no lime.”
Nodding, I turned around and went to retrieve his beer from the beer cooler. When I returned, Buck was standing beside him. My breath got caught in my throat as I approached the two.
“Here, you go. Can I get you something else?” I asked.
“Nah, I’m good right now.”
Glancing at Buck, I asked the same question.
“Nah. I’m good,” he stated dryly.
Once again, I nodded and went back to the other end of the bar, where I noticed Armani had been eyeing me like a watchdog the entire time.
“Pussy must not be that good. He won’t even acknowledge you.” she smirked.
“Must be better than yours, because he won’t even look at you,” I fired back as I turned to walk off, making Jaz giggle.
I hope I didn’t have to deal with this girl’s funky ass attitude the entire time because one of us wouldn’t make it if she kept on with her smart ass mouth.
The rest of the night went by smoothly. Armani didn’t say anything else to me, and I didn’t care one bit. Jaz was cool, so I stuck with her most of the night. Since I was new, they had her show me how to close. Once I did everything, I pulled out my phone and ordered a rideshare so I could go home. On my way out of the employee lounge, I ran into Buck…literally.
“I-I’m sorry,” I stammered.
He stared at me blankly.
“Thank you for the job. I really needed it.”
His only response was his back that he gave me once he walked off.
Fine asshole.
Gathering my things, I headed up front and waited on my ride. I no longer saw Buck, but Kasha was still here.
“Shit, I left my jacket.”
Turning on my heels, I went back toward the back of the bar where the employee lounge was located so that I could get my jacket before the car got here. Once I retrieved it, I headed back up front but stopped by the restroom first. When I walked in, I got the shock of my life to see Armani on her knees with Buck’s dick gliding down her throat. His eyes locked with mine, and I quickly snatched them away. When I looked down at Armani, she had a smirk on her face. Shaking my head, I laughed as I backed out of the bathroom to give them their privacy. I don’t know why I was in my feelings, but I was. I wasn’t gone let it get the best of me, though. I know what type of nigga he is, and as for Armani, that bitch was just delusional as hell.

I made it home and showered before calling Mel and telling her about my first night. I went into detail, telling her everything, including walking in on Buck getting his dick sucked.
“See, this is why I didn’t want you to get involved with him, and now you work there. That’s my fault though. I’ll see if I can find you something else because I really don’t want to come up there and beat his ass about you, Nic,” she threatened.
“Mel, I promise I’m good. He’s not my man, and that bitch is just doing what hoes do. As long as I can make my money, I’m fine,” I assured her.
“If you say so, but the minute that changes, I’m on his ass,” she warned.
Laughing my sister off, I talked to her a little longer before she got a call. She thought she was slick, but I knew she had a secret man stashed somewhere, and whoever it was had money. She insisted she wasn’t talking to anyone, but when her Honda put her down; she ended up with a brand new GLE straight off the lot. She could tell that lie to somebody who believed it, but I didn’t. As long as she was happy, then I was good.
After I hung up with my sister, I got ready for bed since I would be working the lunch shift tomorrow. I wanted to be well rested so I could look my best just in case I ran into Buck. I couldn’t wait to see him, even if he was an asshole.
