Finally Meant (Book 5 of Series)

Never

Stony

"Jaylen you look beautiful baby, you always do." I watch him in the mirror.

"Yeah,"

"Why you so on edge?"

"I lost Chace to Khi and although Im way over that. He's the only guy that makes me feel um....self conscious. Like, maybe he's better."

I cover my mouth to hide my smile.

"Don't laugh Stony, it's not funny." He mushes me.

"I mean what would make you feel that way? It ain't a person on this earth I want more than you. I be having tunnel vision baby, all I see is you."

He walks in front of me hugs me, I gently rub his back. "Khi never liked me. In high school or college."

"He ain't act funny when I saw him around you. It was Carter he didn't care for. Obviously, that changed, I see them in pictures together on social media."

"You right." I push his curls from his face.

"Nobody scan ever make me want them even a fraction of how bad I want yo sexy ass. You know you my lil fix...if I don't have you at least once a day I lose my hearing and vision." I kiss him and he laughs.

"Thank you. I over analyze things. This isn't even about me. It's bout Cario and all the other musicians I asked here today."

"Don't over analyze, aaight...I lucked up." I stand up. Aubrey comes walking through the door with Khi and Cario.

**************

Cario

I remember Khi saying he didn't think I could beat Stone West, but seeeing this nigga in person, he's right. He had to be at least 6 foot 6 or 6 foot 7, weighing two hundred and thirty pounds. He was pure muscle, it didn't look bulky and stiff. It fit his frame perfect. Jaylen walks out in front of him, he is beautiful and small, but he had a little something to hold on to back there. I couldn't help but think, Stone gotta be wearing his lil ass out.

"Cario, thank you for agreeing to do this." He extends his hand and I shake it.

"What's up Jay." Khi daps him.

"Sup, Khi." Stone West walks up, towering over all of us.

"What up nigga." Khi responds excitedly, they hug.

"Tryna get into something after this photoshoot or y'all have to leave right away?" Stony asks.

"It's up to Cario." They both look at him.

"We can do something, I don't have anything else planned today."

"Hell yeah." They look like somebody mama just said they can stay the night.

Jaylen and me laughed. "Okay, let's get started."

*********

Khi

Stony is all up on Jaylen while he's making sure everything is in order. I can't even count the amount of times he makes him smile and laugh. His hands are practically glued to Jaylen, he loves every moment of it.

"I have to work now Stony, go talk with Khi." He shooed him away.

Stony grabs some cheese and crackers off the refreshment table, making his way over toward me. "You good man?" He takes a seat by me.

"Yeah, this shit dope. It's crazy he had an idea with for business and brought it to life. He inspires me. I been thinking about venturing out, doing my own thing."
