I feel the bed be pushed in. I slowly open my eyes and see Chris. Where the hell did Zo ass go? "Sorry if I woke you up." He sounds like a lost puppy dog. It's kind of pulling at my heart strings and pathetic at the same time. "I miss you." He simply says. I want to continue to be mad but shit everything is hitting me at once. "I know."
"Baby I'm sorry." He says turning around looking my way. I sigh, "Chris I don't really wanna talk about it." His head kind of drops, "Well what's up with you and Ty?" I side eye him right. "Nothing." He sucks his teeth, "It's not just nothing Alexis." "I don't care to discuss my friendship with Ty either."
He gets up and hovers over me. Then lifts me off the bed. "Where are we going?" I ask. "To my room." "Chris." I say smirking. "Just to chill. I ain't seen you in a minute. Like I said I miss you." I finally give in and we walk into his room. Gently laying me on the bed, "So what's up?" He asks glancing me over biting his lip. I'm getting wet all over again as the memories of us flash through my mind. I shake it off "Nothing. You?"
My phone rings. I smile, "Good night Chris." I say getting up. "You just got in here where you going Alexis?" He asks. "Hello?" I answer. "What's up? I ain't heard from you in a few. Them lil drinks scared you off." I laughs, "I can handle my liquor. I was waiting on you to hit me up though."
"Is that so?" He asks. "Yeah I don't know why you playing like you didn't want to talk to me. Unless that's true?" I ask getting back in the room me and Zo are in. "Well you know I'm just playing it by ear." I laugh, "Sure Ty."
"When you taking me on that date?" I ask. He chuckles, "Well how about Saturday?" I smile, "Saturday works. Zo will be gone and I could use the company." He laughs, "So you just using me huh?"
"You picked the day though." I say laughing. "You know what you be doing Alexis."
"What did I do Ty?" I ask with my voice going low and seductive. He clears his throat, "You know." He says almost matching my tone. "Remind me."
"I could show you."
"That's even better."
"I got you Saturday." He says. "Get ready to get that ass beat in a few rounds of golf. Ima pro." I snap out of my thoughts. "Huh?" I ask. "Golf in midtown." He says. I hit my forehead. How in the hell did I zone out that fast. "Oh cool." I respond. "Don't sound so excited." I laugh, "I'm sorry I had tuned out a bit."
"Look at you." I laugh. "I said sorry." We start a lil longer and I end up falling asleep on him.
After a long day of work I head home and get ready to go to out tonight with Tia and a few other girls from my old job.
I find my outfit and then head over to the hair shop. "What's up boo?" I say to Monte. "Lexisssssss girl! Where you been?" I laugh sitting down in his chair. "Work, dealing with life, Chris shit." "Uhm mhm. Ty shit too huh?" I laugh, "What? Where did that come from?" I ask. "You damn blushing for one. In case you didn't know miss thang you have a fan." "Who?" "Lil miss Jayla honey. She was on here the other day letting Shanika do her hair and she had a lot to say. Why you ain't tell me Chris got another bitch pregnant?!! We could've went and cut his ass."
I roll my eyes, "Honey trust me I tried." He laughs, "This why you my bitch." Monte fixes my hair up and I get on up out of there. I head over to the nail shop next then to the store to find an outfit.
I make it back in the house by five and see Zo chilling on the sofa. "Caking much?" I ask with my nose wrinkled. "You look cute. Where you going?" "Out with some girls from my old job. What you doing tonight?" "Probably chilling here tonight." "Your always welcome to with me." I say walking into my room. "You wouldn't mind?" Zo asks. "Hell no."
"We're going to Spectrum." I say before shutting my door. I begin to get ready and as I head to the shower my phone rings. "Hello." "So you leave a nigga hanging and don't say shit else?" Chris asks. "Just because we had a decent time over Ant and Alicia's doesn't change the fact I'm still mad at you. Go talk to your baby mama." He sucks his teeth, "Alexis stop playing game man and let me come home." "You know no longer have one with me. Go make one with your new girl." I hang up and step inside the shower blasting Pandora.
Man things would be all cool and prefect if he wasn't messing around with another woman. We should do a stake out and see who the bitch is but I'm not that pressed on it. He's her problem now. Whoever the fuck she is. I walk inside my room and start getting dressed.
"Zo you ready?" I yell out. I walk into the living room. "All ready." I smile, "Cool lets go." We get inside the club. "Lex!" Tia yells out. I run over to her. "Hey! Hey y'all!.... Y'all remember my sister Zola." "Hey girl!" They greet Zo. "Hey y'all. Lex I'm going over to the bar."
We get drinks and the music starts going. We spend half the time dancing in each other until some guys come our way. I wasn't really feeling ol dude I got stuck with so I excuse myself to the restroom. While I'm checking my makeup some girls walk inside. "There she go right there."
"Excuse me?" I ask turning around. "You Alexis?" The girl asks with her lips twisted up. "Who wants to know?" "I do bitch. Keisha watch the door." These bitches got shit twisted of they thinking just because it's two of them I'm scared. "Your problem is what?" I ask. The door opens. "Lex you good?" Zo asks walking inside. "Alisha?" Zo questions. "Now isn't a good time Zo." The girl says. "You know this hoe?" I ask Zo. "Yeah it's Ty baby mama." "You know her?" Alisha asks. "That's my lil sister." I stand looking at the girl mug the fuck out of me. "Zo doesn't stop no show. You can proceed what the fuck you called yourself doing. Keisha finish watching the door hoe."
"What's the problem?" Zo asks. "Lil sis here snooping around what's mine." I laugh. "These damn bitches are delirious. First Jayla now this hoe. Why y'all bitches so mad? Me and Ty don't have shit going on. Trust I'm sure if he wanted y'all hoes he wouldn't be entertaining me." I walk out the bathroom grabbing Zoe hand. "Watch your back bitch." Alisha says. "You watch yours hoe!" I yell back. "Lex please she's all bark and no bite. Let it go." Zo says. I roll my eyes and we walk over to the bar. Let me switch up my night real fucking quick before I end up dragging a hoe.
