In Love With A Thug

Chapter 29

Chris POV :

Me and Ashanti talked and laughed at all good times and memories we spent together.

I looked into her pretty brown eye. "One day I'm going to make you my wife. "

She smiled at me. "I just wanna give you the world in the future bae" I said grabbing her hand giving it a kiss.

"Awww that's sweet Chris" she smiled.

"They gone call you Mrs Robertson." I said looking into her eyes.

"Chris what you trying to say why you talking like this?" She said looking up at me.

"I'm serious Shanti I wanna change my ways and settle down with you I know I did you wrong in the past.I just want to make it up to you." I said with a smile on my face.

"Chris what the only way you gone change is if you stop selling drugs and hustling you haven't gave that up. So no you're not ready to settle down." She said taking a bite of her food.

"I tell you how I feel and how much I care about you and you bring this shit up in my face!?" I snapped I was irritated.

"I'm sorry Chris I wasn't saying it like that I was just saying. You had a choice you didn't have to do be out here doing this." she said.

"You think I wanted to give up my dreams shanti? I didn't choose this life I had to give up my dream to take of you and make sure granny straight. I didn't grow up like you" I said she was really pissing me off.

"What do you mean by that Chris you didn't grow up like me?" She asked me.

"I didn't have shit I wasn't spoiled like you I'm from the projects so I have no choice but to hustle. Playing ball with my niggas ain't gone put food on my table!" I said.

"I'm not spoiled I was just saying you can change you don't have to hustle you can go back to school and get a good job.Chris your smarter than that!" She yelled.

I started thinking. She did have a point but I just can't give up the street life I wanna change but I'm not ready yet.

"I'm done I'm trying to change my ways but it's gone take some time." I sighed.

"I just don't want you to end up dead or in jail you know this is not you Chris." She said grabbing my hand.

"But anyways I had something else to give you if it means anything to you." I said putting my head down.

"What is it?" She said looking at me.

I reached in my pocket and pulled out a long small box. "Open it" I told her.

She opened the box and looked at me with a smile on her face. "Awww you remembered" picking up the necklace with the heart shape on it and our picture in the middle. "Yea how could I forget?" I said.

When we were younger Ashanti always said she wanted a heart necklace with our picture inside.

She smiled and I smiled back. "Come here let me put it on" I told her and she came over to me.

I put the necklace around her neck then she turned around and gave me a kiss on the lips "Thanks I love you" she said.

"I love you too" I gave her a hug.

"You ready to dip?" I said. "Yea lets go" she said I got up from my seat and paid the bill.

We walked back to the car holding hands talking about the future and our plans. "You wanna go to the park?" I asked her.

"Yea sure gotta be in before 10 though." She said looking at the time. "I got you" I said

We got in my car and rode to the park. I pulled up at the park then I looked over at Ashanti.

"Remember when we use to come here and shoot ball and I would always beat your in one on one?" I laughed.

She hit me on the shoulder and laughed. "No that's only because I let you"

"Is that true and remember the day you told me that you liked me?" I said to her.

"Yea I do" She smiled at me.

"I liked you too I was feeling you the first time we meet and started talking to me but I thought you wasn't feeling a nigga" I confessed.

She laughed. "Why you think that?" She asked me.

"Cause I didn't have shit back then" I said

She sighed. "I would've never told you I liked If I thought you wasn't good enough for me but I didn't think about I just fell in love with you cause you have a good heart" she told me in a soft voice.

"I appreciate that. That's why I love you so much you been down for a nigga since day one" I looked at her rubbing on her face.

"Always baby" she said coming closer to me pulling me in. She kissed me slowly then looked into my eyes. "I love you Chris." She said. "I love you too Ashanti" She started kissing me again nonstop that's when I pulled closer to me. "Let's get out" she said opening the door.

We walked over to the picnic tables and she sat her jacket on it and then mine we was still was making out I picked her up and sat her on the table I was ready to fuck.
