“Ahh!” she screamed instead and knocked over her chair to hug her best friend.
Jabari and I dapped up as he grilled the both of them. “That was the longest fuckin’ forty-five-minute flight,” he mumbled.
I burst out laughing. Amidst all her screaming and hugging Haven, Pretty missed the baby bump Haven possessed.
“Oh, my God!” Pretty cried. Her and Haven held each other for a while, just crying and carrying on like Jabari and I had held them captive from each other or some shit. “We’re having babies together!”
Shocked, Haven cried even harder. I meant to put a smile on my girl’s face. I’d say I exceeded even the grandest smile.
We sat down to eat and catch up. Not surprisingly, Pretty had all the attention and affection for me after seeing Haven’s face.They smiled hard throughout dinner as if they hadn’t been on a warpath all damn day. Jabari and I just looked on perturbed.
“Damn shame,” Jabari uttered. “I should change my mind about us moving here.”
Pretty’s face lit up bright as hell.
Haven laughed. “Surprise!” she exclaimed. “We’re moving here!”
“Afterthe holidays,” Jabari interjected.
Another round of tears and hugs proceeded between the two women. Jabari and I just accepted the fact that we were at this damn dinner table by ourselves.
Prettyrodemeniceand slow, apologizing for how mean she’d been to me this afternoon. This was the gentlest we’d ever been with each other, and I had to admit, I loved the shit. I held her left hip with one hand and her right ass cheek with the other. Her sweaty skin smelled delicious and being buried deep inside her pussy felt even better.
I leaned up to take her nipples into my mouth, sucking and pulling on them as hard as I could. She yelped and bounced on my dick a little quicker. Some old school nigga’s voice drowned out the sounds of my woman’s cries as she fell apart. She squeezed me so tightly that I was right behind her. We fell asleep with her plastered to my chest.
Around three in the morning, my phone startled Pretty awake. I reached for it, swearing at seeing Gunner’s name.
“Yeah?” I answered.
“You won’t believe this,” he said. “Jamaine is dead.”
“Be there in a minute,” I replied.
Pretty glanced at me over her shoulder. I kissed her shoulder, then climbed out of bed.
“Something’s wrong,” she mumbled.
“Rest, my baby.” I headed up the stairs to shower and throw some clothes on, then was back down the stairs in minutes.
Pretty had turned on the lamp and was watching me with concern in her eyes. Removing the blanket from her partially naked body, I kissed her thigh, hip, abdomen, the swell of both breasts, then her lips. She giggled.
“I’ll be right back, aight.”
“Alright, baby.” She beckoned me for one more kiss, so I obliged her.
“I love you,” I confessed against her lips. She gasped, and I chuckled. “Don’t act like I don’t show you what it is, baby.”
Tears dotted her eyes. “No… No, you absolutely do show me that you love me.”
“Then, why are you shocked?”
“Because you’ve always shown it… And now you said it. Therefore, I can’t deny it.” She sniffled while I wiped her tears.
“That’s right, my love.” This time when I kissed her, I let our lips linger together. “Go back to sleep. Russ will be out front, and I’ll let Humble and Peace know that I’m out for a few minutes.”
“Okay.”
I tucked her back in, cut the lamp down a little, then headed out of the room. On the other side of the door, my face contorted into a frown so deep that I could’ve scared myself if I looked into a mirror. On my way out of the door, I texted Humble and Peace. Next, I called Alli.
