"It's my dad." Tre removes himself from my arms.

I turn over. "Where?"

"He's outside. Can you get dressed and go sit in the living room or stay hidden."

I stretch. "What he gonna do, whoop you?"

He doesn't find that funny.

"Tre, look at me."

"Not now, please Islan. Put your clothes on." He wasn't in a joking mood.

"I have on my briefs, but um not butt booty ass naked." I pull the cover off me and hop out of bed. I bend down and collect my clothes.

The moment I'm out the bed he makes it.

"Hey," I sit down and pull him between my legs. "I don't like you like this. What's up?"

His eyes show sadness and fear. "He can just be a certain way. I don't like to piss him off."

"Certain way like what? Tre, don't do that closed mouth shit. Tell me what the fuck is botherin you." Now, I'm getting upset.

"He can have a temper."

I can feel the heat flash throughout my body. I grind my teeth together. "He put his hands on you?"

"Not anymore. Not as much."

I stand up. "You so fuckin nice. What reason would anyone have to do that? I even feel like shit from when I hit you." I quickly put on my clothes.

Tre just stands there.

I turn back to him and hug him from behind. "Imma go out there with you, aaight?"

"Okay." That seems to relax him.

"But Tre, he pull some shit in front of me, imma flip the fuck out. Your dad or not. Shit ain't slidin in front of me." Plus, I don't like his bitch ass no way.

I know what y'all thinking. Now, I wanna be protective of him, but imma be the main one to hurt him. I thought about coming clean about Amina. He gonna hate me, and not like before. He's really gonna hate me.

He just had to go and make me like him. This wasn't the plan. Last night, the way he came on my tongue. Yesterday the way he came to my rescue. Now, I watch him walking around this house, scared. I could slap his dad right na. He didn't even flinch like this when he I got into it . Now, he's walking on eggshells. If that man even look like he thinkin about puttin his hands on Tre...let me not even work myself up.

I go into the bathroom to wash my face and brush my teeth. Tre does the same. I kiss his shoulder. "Look at me if it gets difficult."

"As cute as it is having you protect me. He's my dad."

"And?" I m not understanding.

"You can't just beat my dad up." He laughs.

"Who said?"

"Me." He's serious.

"I'll go with whatever you want for now, but if I fall in love with you. Then you mine. You know what that means?" I lean on the sink.
