“I gotta take this call,” announced Kace as he got up and walked out the door.
“Nah, I ain’t starting shit! You really think I’m about to leave my brother in the dark like that? Out here with these disloyal ass mothafuckas! Niggas stealing our shit and fucking his bitch! Hell nah, I am not going out like that, fuck what I said I was gon’ do, I ain’t doing shit! This is the time my brother needs me, and I’ll be damned if I’m gon’ turn my back on him. Shit, to be honest with you my dawg,” he snapped as he leaned forward in his chair, resting his elbows on the table and stared me directly in the eyes. “Right now, it seems like I’m the only loyal mothafucka he has in his corner these days.”
I just sat here in silence and stared at the disrespectful ass bastard through narrowed eyes. He was mugging me, and I was mugging the shit out of him until he finally got up and walked out. That didn’t stop me from shooting daggers at him, though. My eyes followed that nigga until he was out of sight. I knew he was trying to throw salt, talking ‘bout some niggas fucking Tez’s bitch. Nah bruh, Bree is my bitch, was what I should’ve said to the nigga. Jay had me too pissed at this point, and I knew right then that our friendship would never be the same.
I stayed at the Café for another thirty minutes or so, taking shot after shot until I was no longer able to take anymore. I hadn’t seen or talked to Bree since the day I saw Tez leaving her crib. Yeah, I still had Brittani with me. She been blowing up my phone, but I haven’t been answering. I done told her one time too many that I didn’t want that nigga over to her crib, but her ass acted like she didn’t understand. I knew it was only going to be a matter of time before she had my daughter around that nigga, so I was defusing the situation before it had the chance to get started. Nann nigga was about to play step-daddy to my baby girl. Fuck that!
I sat outside Bree’s house for a good ten minutes before getting out and knocking on the door. I ain’t going to even lie, I missed the hell out of her ass. I don’t know what it was about her, but shawty had a nigga fucked up in the head. So fucked up that I was willing to off my once best friend for her ass.
Yeah, I wanted his money and empire too, but the major reason was because I wanted Bree. I wanted us to be a family. I was tired of putting on and kicking it to her like I didn’t want the same thing as her. Before Tez got out, she let me know occasionally that she wanted me and only me, but I just knew we couldn’t be together like that. Tez would’ve killed me. All that shit don’t even matter to me no more though, and I was going to let my boo know that.
“Mothafucka you got some nerve to be bring your funky ass over here without my damn daughter. You need to go run your ugly ass back on home and get my baby. I can’t believe you been keeping Brittani away from me for almost two damn months. You lucky Shay been calling me to let me talk to her, because I would’ve been called the police of your ass for kidnapping my baby,” she fussed. My drunken ass just stood here listening to her rant on and on.
“You done yet?” I asked her.
“Hell nah, I’m not done!”
Slap! Just that fast, Bree had done slapped the shit out of me and was now walking off. I raised my foot up and kicked her dead in the ass; knocking her down. It was a hard kick though; I wasn’t trying to send her flying into the wall.
“I don’t know why you and Shay always feel the need to put y’all hands on me when y’all get in y’all feelings.” I walked further inside the house, closing and locking the door behind me. Slowly, Bree got up rubbing her ass while walking off.
“Fuck you Lo! How about you go get my daughter and stay the fuck away from us,” she said over her shoulder. Grabbing her by her long ass ponytail, I snatched her back, causing her to almost fall again. Luckily for her, it was her real hair, because hard as her head jerked back that shit would’ve came out had it been fake.
“Y’all bitches ain’t gon’ be satisfied until I put my foot in y’all asses, huh?! That’s what you want, Bree? You want me to beat the fuck outta you?” I snatched her up by her neck. She was huffing and puffing, but I saw no fear in her eyes.
“Carlos, if you don’t get your musty ass hands off me, we’re gonna be up in this bitch fighting like two grown ass men. Now think I’m playing if you want to,” she threatened me.
Bree knew she didn’t want these problems. Just like with Shay, her ass and me be up in here fighting too. Bree didn’t have hands like Shay, so I didn’t have to ruff her up as much as I would do Shay. To know I wasn’t putting any fear in her heart made my dick jump. Bringing my hand from around her neck, I picked her up in one quick motion. Bree wrapped her legs around my waist and her arms around my neck, and we stared into each other’s eyes while I carried her over to the couch and took a seat with her straddling me.
Chapter 24
We Got Hood Love!
Bree
I should’ve called the police on Lo’s ass as soon as I saw it was him at my damn door. Nigga went MIA with my daughter. Luckily for his ass, his bitch had been calling me and letting me know that my baby was doing good, and that they had went up north to visit his family. I knew Lo wouldn’t hurt our daughter, but still he was wrong for keeping her away from me like he’d been doing, and I couldn’t even think for the life of me why he would do something like that. Here I am, yet again falling under this nigga’s spell when I was supposed to be mad with him.
“You know I really do have mad love for you Shawty,” he let me know. I twisted my lips and rolled my eyes. “Man don’t do that!”
“Whatever Lo, you don’t love me, because if you did, then we would be a family by now,” I said. I knew Lo loved me more than he puts on, but I was tired of him not showing or expressing his love for me. Yeah, I know he has a girl, but he kicked it to me like he was going to leave her and be with me, and all of a sudden he had a change of heart.
He smacked his lips and shook his head.
“I’m dead ass serious Bree. We have been kicking it for years. You see a nigga ain’t stopped fucking with you yet. I could’ve just fucked you and went on about my business, but I didn’t. Real shit shawty, I been in love with you since the moment I saw your beautiful face. Before you and Tez even got together,” he confessed as he stroked the side of my face. I was shocked, because I never knew he felt this ways about me. He’d announced he loves me before but this time I felt the love, I saw it in his eyes. Shit!
“I had Shay, and that was the reason that nigga even lucked up and got you in the first place. I wanted to tell you so many times, but I knew how he felt about you.” I couldn’t believe what he was saying right now.
“Well why did you talk me into staying with him all the times I said I would leave him for you? What about when he got locked up? We could’ve been together then, but you let me know occasionally that you would never leave Shay for me,” I questioned him. I wasn’t getting it. Lo knew how I felt for him, and he would always blow me off, now all of a sudden he wanted to confess his drunk love for me. Then again I’ve always heard a drunken mind speaks a sober thought.
“Come on now baby, you know that nigga would’ve tried to smoke me if he found out I was fucking the woman he was in love with. I had already violated the G-code by fucking his bitch. And as far as Shay goes, fuck that bitch! I want to be a family with you and my daughter. Y’all two are the only ones that matter to me.” Lo took my hands in his and kissed them. “I’m ready to be the only man in your life.”
He raised up and reached into his pocket, bringing out a small black box. Just seeing the box caused my chest to heave up and down rapidly. This guy can’t be serious right now, I thought with teary eyes. My hands trembled as they cover my mouth. “Lo,” I whispered.
“Baby, I know I haven’t been showing you the love that you been wanting me to, but starting right here and right now, I’m willing to give you all the love that you want. I want us to raise our daughter as one. I’m sick of her looking at another bitch when she comes to my house. She should be in the same house as her mama and daddy,” Lo e
xplained. I couldn’t do nothing but shake my head as he talked—all the while the tears were falling from my eyes.
“W-what about Tez?” I asked him. Shit, he’d just said Tez would kill him, and that was the reason we couldn’t be together before. Tez would probably still kill his ass just from him breaking the ‘G-code’ as he called it.
“Fuck that nigga!” he yelled. He sounded as if he mustered all the hatred he had for Tez and said that. “I’m willing to risk my life for you shawty. I love you.”
I blinked a few times, obviously still in shocked.
“I love the hood love we share, and I wouldn’t trade that shit for nothing. You my ride or die bitch that’s down for whatever! So what do you say, will you marry a nigga?” he finally opened the box. My eyes bucked at the hugest diamond ring I’d ever seen. I’d be a damn fool to not take this damn ring.
“Yes—Hell yeah I’ll marry you baby!” I shouted before locking my lips with his. God, I loved this damn man! I knew Tez and me would never be together, so why not marry this mothafucka. I kind of felt bad for his other kids and Shay, but hell, I wanted to be a family with my child’s father too. So oh well! It ain’t my fault she wasn’t wifey material.
“So, I’m about to come into a lot of cash, and after that me, you, and our baby are off to another state. Wherever you wanna go baby,” he informed me. I squealed in excitement. “But check this Bree, I don’t want that nigga over here no more. I’m dead ass. Next time I see him here, I’m killing you and him both. I’m tired of playing with y’all.” He looked me dead in the eyes, and I knew he was serious.
Now would’ve been a good time to let him know that Tez knew he was Brittani’s father, but I didn’t want to spoil the moment. I would just let him know once we were married and living happily ever after. Shit, Tez didn’t want shit else to do with me anyways, so it is what it is, that shit was the last thing on my mind. Right now, all I wanted to do was make love to my soon to be husband.
Chapter 25
Could’ve Been You!
Quintez
Tonight my brother wanted to hang out, and for some reason, he wanted to bring the women that were in our lives at the moment. I found it odd that he wanted to bring the lady he was dating, but since he was, I was of course bringing Grisela. Excited would’ve been an understatement for her. She was just happy that she was finally getting the chance to meet someone I rolled with. I hadn’t told her it was my brother yet. All that was irrelevant if you asked me.
Pulling up to Grisela’s place, I hopped out my ride and used the key she’d given me to let myself in.
“Yo’ shawty, you ready?” I shouted out while making my way to the kitchen. Taking a shot glass, I poured myself a shot of patron and gulped it down, followed by another one. “Yo’ Grisela,” I called out, but still there was no answer. The fuck she at? I wondered as I made way to her bedroom.
I walked in to her laying right on the bed with her legs spread wide open and wearing nothing but a smile. She was so fucking sexy. I smirked as she beckoned for me to come to her. Wasting no time coming out of my shirt, followed by my wife beater, I crawled right between her legs. Kissing her belly button on up to her nice size breasts, I slobbered those up then placed soft kisses over her face before taking those same kisses to her neck. Grisela thought she was slick. She kept trying to turn her head so my lips could connect with hers. Ol' slick ass.
“Come on papi, fuck me,” she moaned out in her thick Spanish accent, while nibbling on my earlobe. That shit drove me crazy.
Getting off the bed, I unfastened my belt, letting my pants fall down. Taking the magnum I'd just retrieved from my pocket, I ripped it with my teeth and strapped up. I was about to fuck the shit out of her. Once I was in, I went to work and was hitting all her G-spots. I was working her little ass, but too bad I had to make it a quickie. My phone was ringing off the hook, and I knew it was Jay because of the ringtone.
“I’m on the way,” I answered all out breath from the lil work I’d just put in. He chuckled, already knowing what was up and said okay. “Come on, let’s shower so we can get out of here.”
*********
Walking into the restaurant, I spotted my brother and instantly wanted to turn right back around and walk the fuck back out. The way that nigga Kace had showed his ass the other day, I didn’t even want to be in his presence. I was liable to knock the shit out of his ass. I swear that fool had one more time to come at me wrong about Tang. He better take that shit up with her and keep it moving, and I dare him to put his hands on her.
“What’s up?” I spoke when Grisela and me got to the table. I shook my head because Tang was occupied with her phone. Kace had a spaced out look on his face, and my brother and his girl was talking amongst themselves. Tang finally looked up at me and gave me ‘The Look.’
I smirked, because no one saw that but me. Her ass sitting there with her nigga, but wanted to feel some type of way because I showed up with a chick. I was about to rub this shit in her face.
“This my girl Grisela. Grisela this is my brother Jay, his—I’m assuming girl,” I hesitated, wondering how the fuck my brother even knew this chick. I didn’t really pay attention to her when I first walked up, but now I was eyeing her, because this shit here was foul as fuck. Finally, I turned to Tan and Kace to introduce them. “This my brother’s homeboy Kace and his girl Tang.”
“Hey, my name is Tan. Not Tang!” Tang said with a smug look that caused me to chuckle. Really? She wants to sit here and correct me on her name?!
“Oh, my fault. I didn’t think it was a big deal with me calling you Tang since you never checked me about it before.” She wanted to be childish, so I was going to be childish right along with her ass. She stared at me through narrowed eyes. Right when she opened her mouth to say something, Jay jumped in.
“Nice to meet you Grisela. This is my friend Rachel.” They shook hands and then she turned to shake Kace’s hand. Tang continued to act as if she was so into her phone. Petty ass!
I didn’t get her. Isn’t this what she wanted? Didn’t she want to be with that nigga? So why was she mad now? I hope she didn’t think I was about to chase her because I told her I was about to do that. That wasn’t even me!
“So what’s up man? Why you wanted us all to come here tonight?” I asked once we were done eating. This shit was already awkward as hell, sitting here with this damn girl and her nigga, even though one would’ve thought Grisela and me was the perfect couple of the year. I was stepping all outside the box to make Tang jealous, letting Grisela feed me and shit. I had something for Tang’s ass. She wanted to play me to the left; before tonight was over, I was going to leave her ass with something to think about while she’s lying next to that nigga at night.
“I just think it’s time for us all to get acquainted with one another. I mean, shit, we’re homeboys, so it’s only right the girls in our lives know one another as well,” Jay crazy ass said. I looked at his ass, wondering was he back on that shit again.
Now, Jay’vion knew damn well Tang’s stubborn ass wasn’t about to go for that. First of all, she wasn’t about to be chopping it up with her best friend’s ex and his new lady. Shit, if she knew what I knew, she wouldn’t even been sitting here at this table, period; then look at the snobbish ass attitude she’d been giving me tonight–I doubt she was about to be cool with Grisela either.
“Ouch. Don’t be hitting me,” Tang said out of nowhere. I looked over at her, and she was eyeing Kace with a mug.
“Yea, I feel you on that bruh. Shit, might as well,” Kace cosigned with my brother. Me, on the other hand, didn’t care one way or the other. It wasn’t like Grisela was about to be coming around those niggas like that, so I didn’t say anything. She was smiling from ear to ear, though.
“I’m going to the restroom,” Tang let Kace know before getting up.
“Oh, I’m going too. I have to powder my nose,” said Grisela, and before I knew it, the three of them was walking away from the table. Of cours
e, I had my eyes on Tang’s fatty. I swear, her ass gets bigger and bigger each time I see her. I heard my brother clear his throat, grabbing my attention.
“Damn bruh, I see you. About time you get over Bree’s ass,” Jay’s silly ass laughed like something was funny. Hearing that ho’s name had my blood boiling.
“Man fuck that bitch! What’s up with your boy Lo? Where he at?” I asked, because I didn’t want to hear shit else about Bree, and it pissed me off that my brother still hadn’t told me what the deal was between her and Lo. Had me questioning had he ever been up in her too while I was locked up. I made a mental note to question him about that when we was alone.
“Man, Lo is on some other shit. I honestly think he had something to do with our shit going missing. Like, how the fuck he going to disappear right when our shit go missing. Talking about some, he was on a vacation with him family,” Jay explained to me. Hell, I been thought the nigga had something to do with it, and this just further confirmed my accusation.
“Yea, that shit don’t look good on his behalf,” I said as the ladies were walking back up. “You good?” I asked Grisela once she sat down. She nodded her head and smiled at me, and that’s when I went in for the kiss.
It started off as a peck, but when she slipped her tongue in my mouth, I didn’t pull back–that was, until I heard a throat being cleared from the right side of me. Already knowing it was Tang, I didn’t even bother to look over at her. She dished this shit, now she had to sit here and suck it up. Hell, it could’ve easily been her sitting over here getting some of this good tongue action, but obviously that wasn’t what she wanted.
