Kierra sat face to face with Erica as they had dinner together, she watched as the other woman gracefully ate her food.
Since they were both in New York, technically alone... Erica invited Kierra out to dinner. She didn't want to be alone but if she were to admit to herself she wanted to be in Kierra's company.
"Why is everything you do filled with so much class?" Kierra asked playfully, but she was serious.
Her walk was one of a Lady filled with class,she always dressed elegantly and you can never catch her basic and Erica blushed at the question.
"What do you mean Ki?" Erica asked her wiping the corners of her mouth with a napkin.
"See? Look what you just did... Girl you make me seem like I have zero etiquette manners" Kierra joked causing Erica to laugh.
"I guess I'm just a lady"Erica spat and Kierra raised her eyebrows acting like she was offended by it.
"I'm just playing... " Erica teased.
"We kind of knew that I would have to be first lady one day so I always have to act accordingly, people are just way too judgemental out here." Erica said, Kierra nodded in understanding.
She remembers that her mother went through the same thing at church, everyone looked at what she said, how she said it, how she dressed and how proper she sat on her chair.
"You and my mom would get along." Kierra said
"I have little boy manners." She joked .
They continued with their dinner , having further conversations. Kierra kept making Erica laugh which was exactly what she needed now , she was glad it was Kierra who was there... if only the woman knew how she felt about her.
"We're going to have to take a walk after this...because baby is stuffed!" Kierra said .
Erica agreed with her since she felt the same way, but she wasn't too sure about where they would take that walk, they were two women who were unarmed and she didn't feel that safe.
Kierra got up from her chair after they where done with their desert , she paid for their food and made their way outside .
"I forgot how cold New York gets whoo" Erica said walking the streets of New York city with Kierra.
"You can take this jacket" Kierra said taking it off but Erica tried to stop her.
She watched as the other woman took out her hand from the jacket she had on
"Kierra, it's okay, I'm fine." Erica told her , Kierra avoided her continuing to take the jacket off.
She handed the Jacket to Erica who didn't want to take it and kept looking around her.
"E , I have on enough clothes"
"Plus I'm a big girl , I got sufficient meat to keep me warm." Kierra told her.
Erica smirked then took the jacket from her hand, she did have on a lot warmer clothes which she wasn't lying about.
And she knew that Kierra wasn't going to let this thing go.
"I like your meat."Erica said after taking it.
Her eyes then widened in awkwardness realizing what she had just said , Kierra just cleared her throat.
"I mean... It suits you, you should be confident in who you are..." She panicked
"Not that I think you're not confident I'm sure you're a very confident woman but I just like that- " Erica rambled , Kierra cut her off to save her because she saw that the woman was struggling.
