'I been being way too friendly
It's a part of my love language
I've been spending all this money on strippers with pretty faces'

The cool liquid goes down my throat like water, the strong taste no longer apparent on my taste buds after so many shots.

I wasn't aware of what time it was but the afties was going up like the night was just starting.

Sitting my cup down I pick up a stack of ones smacking them on the round ass in front of me, the floor beneath us covered in bills.

Her ass bounces effortlessly against me as I tuck ones in her g string, my free hand roaming the soft skin softly squeezing it in my palm.

I softly whistle taking her backside in enjoying every second of this dance until the song is over and she stands up turning around with a smile on her face, she was gorgeous too, brown skin glowing under the club lights.

"Preciate it ma" I hand her the rest of what was in my hand.

"It was my pleasure" She hugs me and I return it softly squeezing her side.

"Alright, make sure you don't give a nigga a heart attack tonight, all that ass you got behind you" I softly laugh letting her go as she giggles.

"I need to come with a caution sign huh?"

"Shittin mee?" I exclaim as she laughs.

"Make sure you get all this, this just for you" I tell her and she nods.

"Trust me I will" She says squatting down to collect her ends and I pick my cup up pouring another shot.

"Yo I'm so happy you outside" Quise drunkenly slurs throwing his arm over my shoulder.

"Yo you're too sauced" I laugh like I wasn't sauced right with him, he had me going shot for shot I just carried my liquor better.

"I'm serious, I know you happily in love and shit but we be missing you out here, that's why everybody popped out tonight" He says and I look around the section seeing all my friends, we all damn near walked in together so I didn't think nothing of it but looking around this time felt different.

"I miss y'all too, I know I don't be outside like that no more but I still be with y'all all the time, that gotta count for something" I softly laugh.

"Nah facts, you know this outside shit just different with us"

"I'm still working on managing my time but I promise, we have many more nights like this" I give him my word and he pours another shot in my cup.

"To many more nights like this" He toasts and we both throw back another shot.

"Nahh I really can't even taste the liquor no more, it's getting crazy" I chuckle sitting my cup on the table, I was cool off the liquor for the rest of the night, I had drunk more than enough.

"I'm bouta crack open another one, we done kilt the bottle" He sits the empty Hennessy bottle on the table picking up a new one from the bucket of ice.
