The Lyon For Me

Two

"What Jamal!!"I asked impatiently"I've always had something some kind of feeling for you but I've always pushed it away because I like guys" I moved closer to him"Would you be willing to even try it" I asked slowly he looked at me and bit his lip.

In turn I licked mine he leaned in a little but then pulled back "What about my boyfriend" oh yea him"I don't know but then what about me" he put his head in his hands then sighed "Shit" he said smashing his lips on mine.

I reacted immediately and kissed back. He pulled me into him and I inhaled sharply"Don't do that" I tilted my head to the side "What" I asked innocently"You know what" he said pecking my lips.

"I don't understand this, this feels as good as when I'm with my boyfriend but only a little better I don't know what I am" I stroked the side of face"It's called bisexual a lot of people are like that but most bisexuals I've meet were female" he groaned and fell back on the bringing me down with him.

"What now" I asked anxiously hoping for a the answer I wanted"I'm not ready for all of this so I guess we just go back to being friends" I blinked a couple then spoke"Sure...You know I think I should go I'll see tomorrow" I said leaving and clearing my throat.

I left and then ran into his brother.... Um Hakeem "Hey you cool" I nodded and smiled which turned into a blush when I noticed hoe he was looking at me"So you and Mal together now.." I shook my head trying not to show my sadness"No why?" I asked smoothly as nonchalantly as I could.

"Good cause I would love to take you to a real good spot to eat" I thought about it for a second and was about to answer when I was interrupted"Nahh she can't  she promised me we would hang out tomorrow" I rolled my eyes and turned to look at Jamal.

"You need time to work on your writers block remember" I said smartly and turned to Hakeem "Sure" I said smiling and he smiled back "Alright cool" I walked home telling myself not to cry.

Next Day....

I walked into Empire for the second time still looking as best as it possibly could look "Ahhhh you're back so you want me to get Mal" I shook my head at Miss Lyon and laughing "No I'm actually here for Hakeem" she looked taken back and called for him anyway.

"Keem what happened to Jamal" I smiled and bit back the anger I've stored up about us "He's gay Cookie he's gay" I said she gave me a look and then left me when Hakeem came up.

"So you gonna tell me where this food place is" he shook his head and grabbed my arm leading me out and then out of the corner of my eye I saw Lucious with a disapproving look on his face.

"Please" I begged but no he still wouldn't tell me. He opened the door to his car and drove me to this place. I saw some flashes from cameras but I ignored it. While we drive 'Main Chick' by Chris Brown came on and I started to sing.

Then Kid Inks part came up. And Hakeem started to rap 'Sitting in the back of the club Table got a rope in the front (I don't know ya) Uh, you looking real familiar I could just be a lil' drunk, I don't know your name

It's a goddamn shame I don't know how to explain it for ya But girl, I'm just saying, if you got a man back home, I don't know him What, just keep it on the hush Pocket full of trees, don't beat around the bush Walking on green, I can even hear the putt

K.O shawty when I hit her with a punchline Get a couple shots when it's crunch time Ducking from my ex like the one time Throw a sign when you really tryna go Got the car parked right at the door' he rapped and I laughed at how cliché we were being.

You know you whenever you go out with someone famous for music you of course have to sing or rap something on one of your dates. I turned off the radio and turned a little in my seat "So tell me about yourself but nothin like Imma baller and all this OK" he chuckles and then starts to think of somethin.

"Hmmm I don't know Imma a baller seems like a real good answer" he said  and I hit his arm "OK since you can't figure it out how about I just ask you questions.... Um how long ..." his eyes widened  and he started laughing.

"Whoa that's a little forward but you know of that's what your into I'm fine with that.... how wet..." I gasped "No nasty I meant as in time... How long have you wanted to be a rapper" he continued to laugh but got it together after a minute.

"OK um I don't really know I guess I began to truly understand my dad's music and how it touched people....and you can sing a little what's the story behind that"  I sighed and started my story.

"When I was young all I wanted to do was sing and since my dad was a producer and singer himself he helped me... He taught me my scales, ,my arpeggios, but he especially was the best dad then he got cancer and I lost my love for music as I lost my father" I said sadly only after my story ended that we stopped.

"We're here... Hey look your good I mean good I should ask my father about getting signed I'm sure that your dad would've wanted that" he looked down and rubbed my hand.

I smiled and hugged him "Alright so where are we" he got out and ran over and opened my door. I saw a nice restaurant called  Che Louise "Keem you didn't have to" he winked at me and led me.

Before I walked in I got a call. I looked to see Jamal calling me "What" I said exasperated with the conversation already "Look I know you're mad at me but"  I raised my eyebrow "I'm not mad at you Jamal" I said sighing "You called me Jamal your pissed ...I just really need to talk OK" I rolled my eyes and thought about it.

"Fine but later I'm with Keem right now it's rude" I said hanging up. I'm sorry OK but rejection hurts I just need to let it go and being around Hakeem is actually helping. We sat around and ate and talked about as many random things as possible"So how about 'Martin' ever watch that" he started laughing and nodding.

"Who's you favorite character I mean Shenneneh, Jerome, Martin, Gina, Cole..." He asked I bit my lip and thought hard "It's between Jerome and Martin they were my favs" we laughed and started singing the Jerome song.

"I say Jerome's in the ho..." I got interrupted by a call from a unknown number "You should come home" I got scared and told Hakeem I'd see him later. I ran home to see Lucious sitting in the loveseat I had.

"Sit.." he told me sternly and I narrowed my eyes in return "Don't get cute your in my house" I said confidently sitting adjacent from him. Whatever this was it has better good I thought crossing my legs and sitting straight.
