Taming Christopher Brown

Chapter Seven

I couldn't believe the words as I said them. I had agreed to go out with Chris Brown. He was smiling at me triumphantly like he just won the lottery or something which I couldn't understand. Why couldn't he just pick up a victoria secret model and take her out? I was just a plain college student with bills and baggage.

"So I'll pick you up tonight?" Chris asked.

"It's a Monday." I reminded him.

"So?"

"Desperate much?" I teased.

"Hold on now, I'm not desperate. I just can't for you to find out why they call me a sex God." Chris replied.

"It's not too late to change my mind you know."

"Yes it is, unless you want me to start singing again." Chris threatened.

"You wouldn't."

"Watch me." Chris smirked before he opened his mouth.

"Okay, okay! No more singing." I yelled before he could start.

"So I'll see you tonight?" He repeated.

"What time?"

"At eight?"

"I work til nine." I told him.

"Girl, you can clock out early." Christie interjected.

"Yeah, and who's going to put money in my check?" I shot back.

"I'm sure you'll think of something..." Her eyes landed on Chris.

"Yeah, because I'm a gold-digger." I said sarcastically.

"I never said you were."

"I'm not leaving early." I said to the both of them, crossing my arms against my chest.

"When can you leave?" Chris wondered.

"Not until we make at least five thousands dollar worth of purchase. Which as you can see, won't be today." I gestured to the only customer we had in the boutique who was watching the whole thing instead of shopping.

"Okay." Chris replied.

"Sorry. Maybe later on this week?" I suggested, hoping that by then he would forget about me and I wouldn't have to go on a date with him.

"I'll buy it all." Chris suddenly said.

"Excuse me?"

"Everything in the store. I want to buy it." Chris confirmed.

"What, no!" I shrieked.

"Really? Damn girl, you better be letting him hit that." Christie replied.

"Oh, I'm going to be hitting him alright," I said then punched his shoulder. "What do you think you're doing?! You're not going to buy out the store."

"I can and I just did." Chris replied before pulling out his black card and handing it to Christie.

"Would you like someone to bring the clothes to your house?" She asked him.

"No. I'm sure Seinna will find use for them at her house." Chris answered.

"I can't accept all of this." I managed to find my voice to say.

"You don't have to. But now you have your five thousand limit and you can leave work. Will you come with me?"

"Let me clock out." I sighed defeated before turning away.

When I clocked out I left the store and pushed my way through the sea of fans who crowed around the store when they saw Chris singing and dancing. They all had their phones out taking pictures and record so I bowed my head while letting Chris grab my hand and tow me to his car.
