Love And Basketball

"Carter!"

I call out after my man as I walk into my apartment slamming the door behind me. I hear his loud ass footsteps, come down the stairs seconds later. His eyes land on me and my heart stops then beats as he smiles that handsome smile of his at me.

This man has me wrapped around his finger like you wouldn't believe. I met him six months ago, at my younger brothers  basketball game, Carter is the assistant coach of my brothers college basketball team.  Carter persuaded me to go on a date with him, after he constantly showed up at the hospital I'm a resident doctor at. He showed up with flowers every day for a week straight, I finally caved going on a date with him. And we have been joined at the hip since.

"Hey baby! I missed you like crazy bananas" Carter mumbled as he pulled me close, then capturing my lips in a toe curling kiss.

Breaking the kiss I take a step back, and push Carter off of me. "Move boy I stink and need to shower" I giggle, and walk past him then head for the stairs, I have just come off working an 18 hour shift and I'm exhausted. I worked in the E.R yesterday, because they were understaffed, I normally work in the pediatric wing. I love kids, and can't wait to have my own someday.

Carter and I moved in with each other a month ago, and we adjusted to living together great. There is a saying "you don't know someone until you live with them" Is so true. 

Carter is a dream to live with. When I come off a long shift and get home, he makes sure my bath water in ran, and rubs me down with oil and lotion after I get out of my bath. He also makes sure that I have a hot meal as well, like I said he is a dream to live with.

He also makes sure to put my ass to sleep with a nice good fucking. After taking a nice long bath that Carter had ready for me, I headed down to the kitchen, and saw him putting the final touches on dinner. I smiled and walked over to him hugging him tightly, he chuckled and removed my arms from around him and kissed my forehead.

I sense that his mood has changed and I think I know what it is. I haven't told my family that me and Carter are together. The reason is because I went through a really bad break up before meeting Carter, I was dating a professional basketball player, and I caught him cheating. I actually surprised him by showing up at his house, and when I got there he was fucking was on his team mates. I always wondered why his team mate never liked me, I was completely devastated. My ex went on to tell me that he was only using me because he needed to keep a certain image to the public.

I ended up punching him in his mouth, and breaking his jaw. I was not only embarrassed, but it also really affected my self esteem as well. When I told my family what happened, my brother and my dad were pissed, and wanted to handle my lightweight. I let them know I handled it myself, but my brother's and dad didn't listen, they ended up trashing my ex's house and threatened him, they told him if they ever looked at me, or breathed a negative word about me that they would break his legs.

Being that I was the only girl in a family of boys, my brother's and father are very protective of me. I also promised my brother and dad that I wouldn't ever date a pro athlete or athlete again, so I have been hiding Carter from my brother's and dad. My mom knows about Carter and supports our relationship, but feels like I need to just come clean, and do it soon.

I have met Carter's family and I adore them, and they me. 

So I can understand why Carter is upset, it also doesn't help that Carter used to be a hoe himself. My brothers and I are very close, always have been, growing up in beverly hills being the only black kids in our school we had to stick together. I'm the middle child, and also the only girl, my oldest brother Derrick is an investment banker, and my youngest brother  Darren is in college studying to be a biochemist.
