“A’ight, Drek.”

I turned in my shoes and walked out that bitch before I went to jail. After I got in my car, I saw Vashti in the parking lot looking around. When I passed by her, I could hear her yelling my name. I kept driving. I didn’t need that kinda drama in my life.

VASHTI

Jedrek was looking fly as shit in his jeans, polo, J’s and fitted cap. It hurt that he was acting like he didn’t know me. Benji was trippin’ like he was my man or something. We’d been friends for a while, and we’d fucked a couple of times months ago. After chasing Jedrek outside, only for him to drive by me like I wasn’t standing there, I went back inside the bowling alley. The second I got to our lane, I glared at Benji and said, “What the fuck wrong wit’ chu? You acting like we a couple or something.”

“Nah, but you ain’t finna be looking all dickmatized for another nigga while you with me though. That’s some disrespectful shit, Vash.”

“Whatever. We’refriends. We ain’t even dating.”

“Well,friend, I suggest you find your own way home.”

That muthafucka got up and left. I snuck out the fucking window just to get out the house without Minesh knowing. My head dropped back after he walked out the door, then I flopped in the seat. I could feel eyes on me, so I turned to see Drek’s friends watching. They quickly turned their heads and resumed their game as I grabbed my phone from my purse.

It was only seven o’clock, and my night was already in shambles. My parents’ house was only about five miles away, but there was no way my ass was walking, whether I was wearing sneaks or not. I called my girl Meesha to see if she could come get me. “Hello?”

“Hey, Meesha. You busy?”

“I’m at work, Vash. What’s up?”

“Shit. I need a ride. Benji left me at the bowling alley.”

“Oh shit. You must’ve pissed him off.”

“Yeah, so? He done pissed me off a few times, but I ain’t never left his ass nowhere.”

“You know how Benji is. I get off at ten. If you don’t have a ride by then, call me.”

“A’ight, girl. I’ll call you at ten.”

After ending the call, I tugged at my bottom lip with my teeth, debating on whether I should try to call Jedrek. I hit his number in my recent calls, hoping he’d answer. Of course, he didn’t. I ended the call and texted him.Jedrek, please call me.

I got up and went to the front desk to turn in my shoes, then sat on a bench near the entrance. My feelings were on my sleeve and if anyone said anything to me, I’d probably start crying.

I’d been sitting there for twenty minutes when I saw Jedrek walk back in. I buried my head in my phone, scrolling social media, until he sat beside me. My eyes widened for a moment. He came back for me? “So, youarefeelin’ a nigga.”

I looked up at him and gave him a slight smile. He didn’t smile back, but his gaze made my pussy ache for him. “Let’s get outta here.”

He stood and grabbed my hand, pulling me from the bench and led me out to his car. Instead of opening the door, he pushed me against the car and pressed his body against mine. He was so fucking sexy, I couldn’t take it. My gaze dropped to the ground, but he lifted my head by my chin. “Naw. You talk big shit, don’t get shy now.”

I looped my arms around his neck, then slid my hands up to the back of his head and pulled his face to mine, my forehead resting against his. Before I could kiss him, our breathing had gotten heavy. “What’chu feelin’, lil mama?”

My mouth covered his and I kissed him, sliding my tongue in his mouth. I hadn’t kissed anybody like this in a long ass time, and it felt like my body was blazing like them fires in California. Jedrek pulled my hips to him, then squeezed all my cake. He pulled away and unlocked the car door, then opened it for me.

I sat in the passenger seat, waiting for him to walk around and join me. When he did, he pulled me on top of him, straddling him like I did at the car wash. Moans left my lips as he slid my duster off my shoulders, then slid the top of my romper down, exposing my breasts. “Damn, girl,” he whispered, then covered my nipple with his warm mouth.

I grinded my hips on him, and he seemed to get harder. After sliding his fingers underneath my romper, they made their way to where I needed him most. When he pushed them inside of me, my body went crazy. “Jedrek, fuck.”

He looked up at me and pulled his fingers out, bringing them to my mouth. I sucked them clean as he watched me and squirmed beneath me. After he slowly pulled them from my mouth, he brought them to his. I was so wet and turned the fuck on there was no way I was letting him bring me home without getting some. “Why’d you come back?”

“My boy called me and said ol’ dude left you stranded because his manhood was crushed. Admit it. You want me to keep fucking you like last night.”

I swallowed hard. I wanted him to do more than fuck me. He wasn’t gon’ get that admission though. My eyes closed involuntarily. “Vashti.”

Instead of admitting anything, I pressed my lips to his again, and let his tongue take me away from here. He pulled away from me and a smirk appeared on his face. “Tell me.”
