Page 10 of The Road to You
“Again, you do realize that we met two days ago. You’re going hard with the whole me being your woman thing.” The smile that accompanied her words told me she liked that shit.
I nodded. “I do realize that, but it doesn’t matter. On the third day, we’ll be together. If you weren’t interested in being my woman, you would have told me that shit. You haven’t, so I’m excited about day three.”
“You better be lucky that I kind of like that crazy shit, Euri.” She took a step back. “Come on, so I can get this workout done.”That’s what I thought.
While we worked out together, we got to know each other, per my plan. “Your form is good as hell. Did you learn and perfect your own form?”
“I work with a personal trainer every once in a while. He helped me get it right,” she told me as she did an elevated squat.
I stood behind her, fake spotting her. She didn’t need a damn spotter. What else she didn’t need was a personal trainer nigga, either. “Yeah, you don’t need that personal trainer anymore. I got you.”
Her ass held her squat, turned her head, and looked at me.I wonder if she can do that on a dick.“Now you want to be my personal trainer? First, my man, and now, my personal trainer. Wow, you know how to make a girl feel special.”
When she lifted from her squat, I pulled her back to my chest, then kissed her neck. “You are special. Why do you think, tomorrow, I’m snatching your ass off these single streets? Two special people belong together.”
“Well, what do we have here?”What the fuck!“I didn’t know you were a personal trainer, Euri. I would have hired you,” Cece’s annoying ass quipped.
Bruqlyn looked between me and Cece. “I guess everyone is joining my gym today. I’ve never seen you here either, and I’m sure I would have smelled you if you were here.”
Cece made the ugliest face that should have been at least a misdemeanor. “Bitch, fuck you. I’ve always been a member here. I just don’t come to this part of the gym like that because I do the classes. You probably have the basic membership that only gives you access to this side and the showers to wash your ass since you live in a van.”
I stepped into her space. In a low tone, I said, “Cece, you already know how I feel about my respect. When you speak to my woman, it’s the fucking same as speaking to me. Understand that I will die behind mine.” My lips moved to her ear. “And I’ll kill behind mine too.”
Her eyes bucked. “Your woman? Are you serious right now? Please tell me you’re not serious.”
“You got two options at this moment: walk the fuck away or make more of a ruckus so I can determine how your autopsy will read.” My tone was even and stern.
Bitches had me completely fucked up. I wasn’t so aloof to think that people wouldn’t look at me crazy for meeting a woman, then declaring her my woman on the third day. The shit sounded crazy because it was. People thought it was crazy when Jesus rose on the third day. Well, He was my brother, so we liked to do things on the third day.
Chapter 4
Bruqlyn
Ilearned that my pussy loved a protective man. That Cece bitch was the worst kind of bitch, possessive over something that was not hers. Delusions were a dangerous thing.
“You got two options at this moment: walk the fuck away or make more of a ruckus so I can determine how your autopsy will read.” Euri’s voice told me that he meant exactly what he said. I loved that for me!
“Cece, girl, if I were you, I would go with the first option. It ain’t worth it, girl,” I taunted. Because I was an aggie spirit, I moved next to Euri and interlocked my arm with his. “Thanks for coming to speak while we work out.”
Euri’s smirk caught my eye just like Cece’s dejected expression did as well. “Whatever, Euri. I can’t believe you’re going out bad for a?—”
“Blunt force trauma to the head and a bullet to the neck.” Euri’s statement interrupted her. “Baby, which do you think will kill her first?”
I put my finger on my chin. “It depends on how hard the blunt force trauma is. It could take a minute for her to bleed out, depending on where in her neck she’s shot at.”
The fear finally registered in Cece’s eyes. Yeah, she finally knew shit was real. She took a few steps back before she turned and stomped off. I wondered how she knew we were even there. My wonder was cleared when I saw her walk over to a female who I recognized from the restaurant the other night. “So, were y’all in a relationship, or your dick is just that good?”
He unclasped my arm from him to step in front of me. “No, we were never in a relationship. She’s a pussy friendly female that I fucked on from time to time. I haven’t fucked with her in over a month and a half.” He moved around me and stopped when he got next to me. “Oh, and as far as the dick game, you’ll get it soon.” He smacked my ass, then said, “I’ll let you tell me how good it is.”
That man had a heavy hand. My ass tingled from the smack, and my pussy tingled from his words. What the fuck was happening? I wasn’t sure what it was, but I thought I liked it. We finished our workout together before we went to take our showers. When I came back to the front after my shower, there he was at the front desk, waiting for me.
“So, what we doing now?” he asked me. “We gotta go pick up our baby, right? You can follow me to my house first to park, and we can ride out in my truck.”
My head bucked back a little. “Whoa! When did me going to get my baby become an us thing? I don’t know if my van will be safe in your neighborhood,” I joked.
“Don’t play with me, love.” He grabbed my hand. “Come on so we can get our baby.”
I laughed as we walked out of the gym to my van. I should have been more cautious than to agree to just go to a man’s house. Something told me that I could trust Euri. If he proved that he couldn’t be trusted, then I had fucks to give.
