I Want You to be Mine

" Hey beautiful," Doug said as I slowly walked in.

"Uhhh... Hi. What song do you want me to dance to?"

"Don't worry about that baby. I came here to ask you to be mine. I been seeing you around for a long time. I know we don't know much about each other, but I'm willing to do whatever for you babygirl. Will you be mine?"

I was lost for words. I feel like my sister had something to do with this because she sneaky like that. I looked at him studying his facial expression and by the looks of it he is serious. But why me? He king of the drug game here.

"Sure?" I slowly said unsure of how this would turn out.

"I promise you won't regret this. I like you alike baby girl. You different from all these other girls out here. You in school. You don't throw yourself on these hoodlooms. I don't want you in this club or no other club stripping. You are better than that. I understand it's how you tryna make it out here, but I got you now. Imma take care of you. Let's go."

I followed him out of the room and went to the back to collect my belongings. I need to go tell Stewart I quit. I'm scared to go in there because he already mad that I wouldn't give him what he wanted when I applied here.

knock knock 

It sounded like somebody was in there so I waited outside patiently. A few minutes later Charney, the popular stripper was coming out the door. She asked me if I was leaving and I just nodded my head. She was like my mentor in a way while I was here. she told me bye as I walked in.

"Why you just walk into my office? You know the rule. Don't just walk in if you aint tryna give me no play."

"Too late," I commented because I hated him. "I quit anyway!" With that said, I just walked off.

Doug was waiting for me at the door. I told him I needed to call Shay. 

"She know I got you beautiful. Imma take you to her house so you can change clothes. She went out with Troy." He told me.

"Okay." I wasn't too sure about riding with him alone. I barely know him.

"So babygirl tell me something about yourself."

"It's not too much to tell. I'm sure you know my name is Ebony Rena Hamilton. I have two siblings. Shayla and Kevin. Ummm my favorite color blue, I like Mountain Dew, I love to read. I also love listening to music. Anything in particular you want to know about?" I was secretly praying he didn't ask me about my personal life. Nobody knows about it except Shay.

"Hmmm... How old your lil brother and why haven't I seen him?"

"He 2 and be with my mom all the time."

"Coo."

By this time we were in front of Shay house. I got out and went inside to my room. I got a change of clothes and with in the bath and took a shower. Once I was done, I went downstairs to see Doug sitting on the sofa watching tv.

"Did I say you could watch the TV?" I joked with him.

"Make me fight you." He said.

Shayla POV

I'm sitting in Troy kitchen watching him call his self dancing to Kidz Bop. All I could do was laugh. My poor baby. I love him to death though. He phone started ringing, so he told me to answer it and kept dancing. It was an unknown number.

me: "Hello?"

unknown: "Hey baby"

me: "Who is this?"

unknown: "Excuse me? Who is this?"

I was really getting mad.

me: "You called my man phone. You tell me who you are. He don't have yo number saved so you must be irrelevant thirsty tramp."

beep, beep, beep

"Baby who was that?" Troy asked.

"A thirsty trick." I said laughing.

"Must have been Malayshia. She got my number from Kep the other day. She a nobody to me. I got everything I want right here." He wrapped his arms around me. "What babe? Im forreal."

"I believe you." We ended our night. Laughing and talking to each other.
