Thugs Can't Love

Part 10

Vanessa POV

I woke up to the sound of light snores and a heavy ass arm draped over my me, I turned around and met with Hakeem's face, looking at him right now reminds me of last night, goddamn it was all kinds of perfect and I didn't regret it mainly cause we used protection and I did it with the man I love.

I quietly got outta bed and went to the bathroom to do my hygiene shit, after 30 minutes I hopped out and made my way to the closet, I ain't heard Montae coming home last night so I guess he gon be working all day, I'll probably be chilling with Hakeem today so I decided on some black baggy sweatpants, my black tank top and black socks, I tied my hair into a messy bun and wrapped a black and white bandana around it then headed downstairs to make some breakfast.

After about an hour or so Hakeem came down dressed in his clothes from yesterday and sat at the table "morning beautiful" he greeted, I blushed and smiled at him "morning baby, you hungry?" "Yeah I'm starving" I smiled at him and went back to the kitchen and made him a plate, I went back to the table and placed it in front of him "thanks girl" he smiled " you're welcome." 

We was eating and laughing when I heard loud footsteps coming down the stairs, my eyes widened "oh my gosh you need to leave NOW!!" I whisper yelled to Hakeem, he quickly got out of his seat and we ran to the door, I slammed it behind him and ran back to the table acting as if nothing happened, " morning Nessa" Montae said "morning" I said in a bored tone while looking down at my phone "so who was here?" He asked and I nearly choked on my food "nobody, why?" I kept a cool expression and calm tone "I just heard laughing and talking on my way down" "oh no it was probably just the neighbors being loud like always" I answered quickly dismissing the subject, "oh okay cool then explain why there are two plates on the table and only one of you" I slowly started panicking and I didn't look him in the eye "uhh the other plate was for you but I got hungry and ate it" I answered quickly "don't lie to me Vanessa, just tell me who the hell was here" he told me in a stern voice "itwasmyboyfriend" I said in a quick whisper "what did you say??!" Montae asked "it was my boyfriend" I repeated, a little louder and clearer this time, Montae sat down and looked at me "what's his name?" He asked "Hakeem" "How old is he?" I didn't answer I just looked down into my lap "Vanessa?!!" I looked at him "21" I answered, he looked at me like I had grown another head before sighing  "okay, you sleepin with him?" He asked and I nearly choked "no I ain't" I said lying through my teeth, he got up nodding his head and went upstairs to his room, as soon as I heard the door slam I let out a breathe of relief, that was close. I took the plates to the kitchen, did the dishes and went up to my room.

I got to my room and checked my phone for any messages but I had none, I threw the phone on the bed, got snacks from my mini fridge and cupboard and watched a movie before dozing off.
