Chapter 7

TRIGGER WARNING!!!!!

I was in a deep sleep when I heard the front door slam shut. "Y/n! Girl you betta have gotten some dick, because your location says youre here" I heard Layla shouting. I huff and stretch as I reluctantly got up from the comfortable couch. Damn can I just stay here forever? I could get used to this....

Im suddenly snapped out of my post sleep haze as the twins rush in the living room holding a million different shopping bags. "So did you ride the stallion?! DETAILS! DETAILS!" Leon as he started shaking me by my shoulders. "Wha- No! I didnt fuck him. He's an asshole" I say the second half under my breath. "What he do sis? He lucky TSA took my switchbalde or else I would skin his chocolate ass!" Layla says fiercely. I cant help but laugh at the absolute outragousness of my two lunatic friends. "He didnt do anything, he just started psycho analyzing me like I was some sort of mental patient in a facility on one of them whitebread ass shows like Riverdale or some shit"

I walked Layla and Leon through everything that happened while excluding the real reason why I called him to my "rescue". "Yes bitch then after he kissed me in the car he gonna act like nothing happened and stopped at Orange Leaf when I asked him to take me back to Shawn's house because I wasnt feeling well."

I had to fabricate the reason because even though Layla and Leon know that I go through shit with my mom, they dont know about the full extent of everything. They dont know about how my dad died or about what Clarence be doing to me and my mom and I intend to keep it that way. I've always known the second they found out, I would be a victim in their eyes forever...as if I couldnt be anymore pathetic, lets go ahead and add years of childhood trauma, PTSD, as well as sexual and physical abuse. No harm no foul right? I call bullshit. If they ever find out then nothing would ever be the same period.

"Oh! Oh! and when we pulled up he told me to get out the car and then i told him no because I didnt have extra money to spend right.....This nigga takes it upon himself to literally grab me, throw me over his shoulder like a sack of potatoes and walk me in the store while Im kicking and screaming to put me down. THEN right before he puts me down he smacks my ass and has the audacity to ask me 'WhAt FLaVor YoU WanT'" I finish venting about everything that happened and what was said as they both stay quiet.

"Ok im done venting. Thoughts? Questions? Concerns? anybody?" I look at Layla and Leon as they both stare at me in shock.

"Not gon lie baby, he kinda sounds perfect for you.." Leon says as Layla nods in agreement. "Yea bookie, dont take this the wrong way but he hit the nail on the head with that one. Also it seems like he really listens to you and watches you carefully. He even knows youre mannerisms and notices the small things....wait why are we mad at him again?" Layla chimes in and much to my dismay she is right. "Girl you aint gotta lie we all know you like that manhandling shit ehehe you was prolly all supa soaker status when he smacked that booty too...shit it's about damn time!" Leon says.

"Ok! Ok! maybe I liked it just a little.....But! That was still so embarrassing you could hear the smack throughout the entire store and my ass still stings! He hit it so hard!" I say exasperated from changing my sitting positions. Leon and Layla both started cackling like two bitches on a new sweeper!

"Hey that shit aint funny! Fuck yall!" I say picking up a couch cushion and throwing it at Leon. He catches it and throws it back hitting me smack in my forehead as we all started laughing. "But seriously Y/n do you really think he was being an asshole or did you just not like that he gave you the raw, unfiltered truth about some shit you aint ready to address yet?" Layla spoke up in the midst of our daily cackling session.

The truth is deep down I knew everything he said was spot on and it terrified me. He knew me already so well and he had only met me a few days prior. It was insane how he literally saw through my exterior in seconds. All the walls I had put up the try to protect myself over the last 18 years had been dismantled in the matter of seconds by a perfect stranger. Again.....I was pathetic.
