Page 11 of Unexpected Pass

Her neck moved from side to side, showing me her spicy side. I liked a woman who was sweet and shy but demanded respect.

“Stop the car!” I called out, making the driver hit the brakes in the middle of the street. Phileigh gasped as she grabbed her chest.

“Would you like to come to Disney World with me?”

I did what I should have done in the first place and asked. Her eyes widened, and she stared at me for a minute blankly. I couldn’t even tell if she was considering the offer.

“You know I’m fat, right?” she blurted, making me laugh as if I hadn’t been staring at her beautiful curves since the moment I first laid eyes on her.

I wouldn’t play stupid, though. I knew how society painted the picture. Wealthy, successful, athletic guys like me aren’t supposed to be attracted to bigger women. I didn’t discriminate, though. A beautiful woman of any shape or size was just that—a beautiful woman.

“I know you’re beautiful, and you’ve never been to Disney.” I smirked. Hopefully, she got the message that I didn’t care about her weight.

“This is crazy! You don’t know me. You are you, and I’m just a regular?—”

“No strings attached.” I cut her off. “Just a fellow introvert looking out for another. We spend the day in Disney, and I’ll get you a flight back to Bristol City the next morning.”

“But I don’t have any clothes and work in the morning.”

I waved off her concerns with a grin forming on my face. “I’ll get you new clothes when we land in Florida. And I’ll pay you five thousand dollars to cut a nigga hair.”

“Five thousand for a cut is crazy.”

“Ten thousand then.” I upped the ante. Ten thousand for a haircut was excessive, but I wasn’t above bribery. I wanted her company.

“I don’t know… I… I…”

“It’s just one day, Phileigh. A couple of rides for you, little press for me, ten thousand in your pocket.”

She dropped her head for a brief second. When her eyes returned to mine, she was smiling.

“It’s just one day,” she whispered. “And you’re going to pay me ten thousand dollars?”

“One day, ten thousand,” I confirmed, smiling back at her.

“Okay. I guess.”

“Nah, beautiful. No, I guess.I need you to be 100 percent sure.”

“I’ll go.”

“Perfect. Doug!” I called the driver. “Proceed.”

“To… umm… where, boss?” Doug questioned.

“The airport. We gotta a flight to the most magical place on earth to catch.”

My eyes never left Phileigh. I was drawn to her. Her laughter and smile made me want to keep her in my presence.

“Let’s go to Disney World!” She giggled.

“Let’s go!”

“Kellon Jamal Barnes!”My mom called out as I helped Phileigh settle into one of the plush leather seats on the private jet.

I knew what she wanted before I even turned around. I could already see the scowl plastered on her face.

“Who’s this?” She approached, making me turn to face her. “Who is this girl, Kellon?”
