WHAT IF?

Double Up

Larry's POV:
Sitting in a basketball court at a community center, waiting on Laurent to arrive. As usual, he was late. Laurent showed up ready to play basketball. Since we both been very busy in our careers, we decided to catch up. After a game of one on one, we took a water break.

"Dang man, you been practicing on your jumpers." Laurent complimented.
"Thanks. I was shocked how you dunked on me." I replied.
"Yeah, you know how a player do. Oh, speaking of players. I'm not anymore." Laurent mentioned.
"What do you mean?" I confusingly asked.

Laurent grabbed the bottom of his shirt and wiped the sweat off his face. He paused for. A brief moment and smiled.

"What is it? Come on, tell me." I asked.
"I gotta girlfriend." Laurent proudly announced.
"And?" I sarcastically said and laughed.
"I know what you're thinking. What else is new? But this one is different. She could be Mrs.Bourgeois." Laurent answered.

By the look on his face, Laurent was serious. I drinker more water and said,

"Okay, so break it down."
"Man, where do I begin? She's 5'9", curvaceous body, soft caramel skin and captivating brown eyes. Such a gorgeous woman. I met her downtown. She was trying to catch a cab. The cab just drove off. On top of that, it was pouring down raining. She was so frustrated. She was dressed like a business woman. I ran to her and placed and umbrella over her. She wiped the rain from her face, smiled and thanked me. Then, I offered her a ride to wherever she was going. She told me she was going home. And surprisingly, she got in my car. I took her home. During the drive there,we sparked up a conversation and realized we have lots in common. We been together ever since." Laurent explained.
"Aw." I said with a grin.

Laurent laughed and gently pushed me.

" Come on.One more game. Tie breaker wins." Laurent offered.
" Let's do it." I replied as I snatched the basketball from Laurent and ran to the court.

Laurent's POV/ Later That Night:
I came home and yelled,

"Maria!"
"I'm upstairs, baby!" Maria kindly yelled.

I jogged up the stairs and opened the bedroom door. Maria was searching the drawers while wearing a silk blue robe. I crept up behind her and kissed her neck. She giggled and said,

"Hey Lau, how was the game?"
"I beat Larry by four points. What you doing?" I replied.
"Trying to get my clothes together for work tomorrow." Maria answered.

I began to nibble on her earlobe. Maria giggled and said,

"Hold up. What are you doing?"
"I'm getting you ready for 'Big Daddy'." I replied in a sexy tone.

Maria laughed and replied,

"The bathtub is ready."
"Ooh...shut down." I said and let go of Maria.
"Just wash up, babe. You stink." Maria mentioned.

As I walked into the bathroom,I said,

"You wasn't complaining about my funk last night.

Larry's POV:
As I returned to my parked car. I found another car parked too close to mine. Man, I hate this! I tried to slowly drive away from the curb. But I ended up hitting the car. As soon as I did, I heard a woman yell,

"Oh my god!"

I rolled my eyes and got out of my car. When I saw the woman, I said,

"Damn, you fine."
"Excuse me?" The woman rudely asked.
"I mean...damn...you fine?" I rephrased.
"Yeah. You scratched my car!" The woman yelled.
"I am so sorry," I apologized.
