Naturally Beautiful

Sariyah

When I got out the shower Diggy was sleeping. He was knocked out. My poor baby. It was probably because it would be 11pm in New Jersey and it's only 8 here.

I helped myself to his suit case and took out a t-shirt of his and slipped it over my bare body. I crawled into bed and slept next to Daniel putting my arm on his back and rubbing it softly. He was drooling. My baby was tired. I rolled over and turned the night lamp off and fell asleep.

Diggy

Morning came and the only reason I woke up was because Riy was sitting on top of me. "Good morning sleepy head" She leaned down and kissed my lips softly. "Mm" I groaned. My head was pounding. I slyly smiled and removed a piece of hair from her face.

Last night for some reason I had this urge to drink. Which is crazy, I know I am an alcoholic but usually when I'm with Sariyah I don't want to drink. Sariyah makes my urge to drink completely go away. When I'm with her I'm all about her. I'm not on my phone, not watching Tv,  not drinking, shit probably not even eating. She fills all my needs.

Maybe I don't need AR classes. Maybe I just need Sariyah...

"What do you want to do today Diggy?"
She laid on my chest and looked up at me with her beautiful big brown eyes.

"I want to take you shopping"

"Alright, let me just try to figure out what to do with this hair"

"Why? What's wrong with it?"

"It looks crazy Digg"
She said getting up and going through her closet. I got up and followed.

Crazy!? Her hair was beautiful! Her naturally God given hair. I'm surprised it wasn't damaged from her always straightening it. Always putting a damn weave in because she's not confident with her natural hair. I honestly loved her curly afro more than her bone straight hair.

"Your hair does not look crazy. It looks beautiful! I love your hair this way babe"

"You... you do?"

"Yes and I love you without makeup too. Come here"

She put her head down and walked over to me and into my arms.

I ran my fingers through her hair.
"All this make-up and flat ironing you don't need baby girl. You are 10x more beautiful in your natural state. I know girls that would kill for your hair and your clear beautiful tasty looking dark skin. You are blessed with natural beauty and YOU are my black queen."

She blushed and hugged me tighter.

"No guy's ever told me that..." She sniffled.

"Are you crying" I pulled away and wiped her tears with my thumbs.

"Every one is just like 'I like your hair straight' and 'you look better with make-up on' "

"Hey look at me" I lifted her head up with my finger under her chin.

"Fuck them. Okay? Fuck them Riy. You are beautiful no matter what. Shit you could be bald and have your right eye missing and be gorgeous as fuck"
She laughed a little and hugged me again.

"I was thinking about cutting my hair but I was scared of what you would think"

"I'll still think the same... That your beautiful"

She smiled and hugged me tighter.

"And if no man has ever told you what I just told you... They are fuck niggas and  I'm glad you stopped messing with them"

Riy looked up at me. "When did you get so hood Daniel?"

I chuckled. "Sorry. It just makes me upset because you are just so gorgeous naturally that I don't understand how you don't see that"

Riy stood up on her tippy toes and pecked my lips.

"So since I'm  you black queen, I guess your my black king?"

"You know it" I smiled once again and kissed her passionately.
