It Ain't Easy

Chapter 12

"Come on babe get up", I tried waking Jaylen up for the hundredth time this morning. We had to go down to the hospital since Mama Shannon had to work but was afraid to leave Xavier at the hospital by his self.

"Erica move", he groaned. I sighed rolling my eyes. He was being difficult for no reason.

"Jaylen Donovan Thomas this is my last time telling you get ya ass out this damn bed."

He still layed there ignoring everything I said. I sighed before straddling him. I bent down to his ear.

"Its wet", I said before licking his ear.

He jumped up so fast and I laughed. I shook my head at the fact I had to say something like that for him to get up.

"Dawg you can't be playing like that", he said mugging me.

I laughed as I got off of him and headed to my closet. "Hurry up and shower so we can go."

"Don't rush me nigga."

"Who you talking to, don't catch these hands youngin", I joked.

I turned around and hit something hard. I looked up and he was standing there smirking. He quickly picked me up and threw me over his shoulder.

"Put me down Jaylen", I said laughing.

"Nah, you shouldn't of been talking shit.".

He threw me on the bed and hovered over me. He kissed my nose before he pecked my lips. I just stared at him when a thought popped in my mind.

"What about Elaine", I asked continuing to stare at him. The thought hadn't really crossed my mind until now. I forgot all about her for a minute.

"What you mean", he asked standing up.

"I mean she is your fiance and the mother of your child. There won't be an us if your still engaged", I said.

"Man Erica you know I don't want her, I'm here with you ain't I?"

"That's not what I asked tho", I said pushing past him back to my closet.

I rummaged through the closet looking for something to wear. I picked out a blue sundress and white sandals. I walked into the bathroom trying to figure out what I was going to do with my hair today.

"You really mad", Jaylen asked standing by the doorway. I glared through the mirror and decided to put my hair in a sloppy ballet bun. I slicked my edges and applied my pink lipstick.

After cleaning up my mess I pushed past Jaylen as he still stood in the door staring. I grabbed my phone and purse off the bed before turning towards him.

"Are you ready?"

"Not until you tell me your not mad", he smirked.

I just stared at him. I guess he thought that was suppose to make me talk to him but sadly not. He got me up fucked if he think he was gone fuck with me and her. It was different when we were just fucking but now that he wants to get serious I'm not about to do it. My heart can't afford to take another L. That's why I love my job because everything I do is no strings attached and there is no way for me to go through a heartbreak. Even though I love my job I was going to have to let it go. Shawn was being a major asshole but I was determined to get out of this little 'contract'.

My thoughts were stopped when I realized I was sitting in the car by myself for a good 10 minutes.

I pulled out my phone to call asshole.

"Can you come on", I asked as soon as he answered.
