-living the sweet life-

chapter 24

Ashley's p.o.v

I walk upstairs to my bedroom and remove the covers off the bed and start to make up the bed again. While I clean the room I start to think about what Brittany said again.

"Hey Siri." I wait for the response. "Define manipulative"

' characterized by unscrupulous control of the situation or person' mmm. Control of a person? Damarcus doesn't control me. Time passes.

I fall back onto the bed. "Maybe he does."

"What was that?" damarcus walks in the room smiling. "Oh nothing." I smile , pecking him on the lips. "Oh come on you know that's not enough" he smirks, deepening the kiss. "I came in here to inform you that i finished cleaning everything downstairs with the help of everyone else."

"So all that's left is to clean up the guest bedroom. " he says lying next to me. I move my phone away from him, I wouldn't want him to see what I last looked up and start asking questions.

" I need to take a nap." He takes his shirt and pants off then lays in the bed stretching. "I'm gonna go food shopping to fill the fridge, thinking about taking brittany."

"Mmm make sure to take terrel or sean. You know for protection." he says closing his eyes and facing his back toward me. I roll my eyes and start getting dressed. "Whatever you say."

I walk downstairs. "Brittany and Sean get up, you're coming with me to get food. Also sean you're driving."

"Damn whatever you say, your majesty. You're fortunate that i didn't want to be in the house anyway.'' Sean gets up off the couch and goes to his room to change. "Sure i'll come with you, if you were even asking.'' Brittany says laughing, getting up and changing as well.

I sit on the couch and wait for them. About 10 minutes pass and sean comes downstairs with brittany. "Ight lets go!" Sean says kissing Chloe goodbye and running out the door. Me and Britt follow him laughing then getting in the car. I sat next to Sean in the passenger seat.

"So what you got like one of those list thingies or?" Sean says driving with one hand on the wheel. "A shopping list? Yes, I bought a shopping list."

*time skip*

Sean parks in the parking lot and steps out the car. "Common."

We step out of the car as well and walk into the store. Time passing with more and more food items filling the cart. "So none of yall were gonna push the cart?" Sean says rolling up his sleeves.

"Sean look at me then look at ashley did you honestly think we were?" brittany says. "Oh how could I forget. Yall princesses wouldn't wanna break a nail."

I roll my eyes. "Ye ye ye." I walk into the candy aisle. "Which candy should we get?" I ask them. "Leave it to me." Sean says, stepping in front of me then bumping into someone.

"My fault man." sean apologies. "Naw that was all me dont worry bout it. I should have been paying more attention." the man says lifting his head up.

"Ashley." brittany whispers. "Girl i know." i say back.

"Ahh shii. I wonder how we keep finding ourselves in these situations,ashley" he says. "Keyon keyon keyon. Yes it is weird if I didn't know better i would say youre following me.'' I step to him.

"Is this the man damarcus said to stay away from." Sean bends down and says to me. "Oh he said that did he? Ye i wouldn't put it past him. " keyon chuckles. "But anyway let me get out of yall hair." Keyon starts walking away picking up the candy he dropped.

"Oh and one more thing." he stops and turns around. "Tell your brother i said hi." he points to sean then flashes a smile and walks away.

"He knows one of your brothers?" Brittany asks, putting sour patch into the cart. "I don't know. He doesn't even know me. I'm pretty sure he got the wrong person." sean says putting all different types of candy in the cart.

"Eh and who is paying for all that?" brittany says. "You must have forgotten who you're talking to. Im fucking sean no need to know my middle name miller. I never have to worry about money."

"Ye ye ye can we just go now." Brittany says leaning on the cart. "Sure let's go.'' I try pushing the cart but fail embarrassingly.

Sean snickers and takes the cart away from me pushing it to self check out. He pays for everything even though I insisted on him letting me use damarcus' card.

We carry the bags to the trunk of the car and get inside the car. "Well, that only took 2 hours" seans rolls his eyes, starts the car and drives.

"Which artist yall wanna listen too?" Sean says, pulling out his phone. "Pnb rock most def."

"Say no more"

*time skip*

After putting all the food away I finally go downstairs and clean the guest room. Along with the two bathrooms, gaming room and around the indoor pool. You truly don't realize how big this house is until you have to clean it.
