Love The Way You Lie

-Chapter 22-

I laid on Kings chest as he wrapped his arms tightly around me .. He watched tv as I stared up in his face .. I wanted to ask a million questions but I also didn't want to ruin the moment with my questions ..

"What you lookin at ?" He asked not taking his eyes off the tv

I smiled and kissed his cheek ..

"You"

He looked down at me smiling as he ran his fingers through my hair ..

"Where's Caine ?" I asked

"You want the truth or a lie" he questioned turning his head back towards the tv ..

"I just want to know if he's comin back tonight" I replied

"Nope"

"Well, you staying ?" I asked

"You want me to ?"

I sucked my teeth at him "You already know the answer to that !!" I said as he smiled

He smiled back at me "Well Im stayin, you gotta cook for me though" he replied

"Cook for you ?! Nigga its three in the morning !!" I said as I sat up

"Whats that suppose to mean?" He asked with a serious look on his face

"That mean I can cook your ass some noodles, or a hot pocket !!" I replied

King laughed as he slid out of bed putting his boxers and shorts on ..

"Damn, that's all I get ?" he questioned me

"Thats all you get daddy, I only cook for my man" I kissed him on his lips and walked out of my bedroom

"And who is that ?" King asked following me into the kitchen

"Don't have one" I replied opening the refrigerator

King wrapped his arm's around my waist and kissed my neck from behind ..

"Naw, you mine E'mani .. a month, two months, & even right now you mine" he said

I smiled turning around looking up into his face ..

"Oh really ?"

"Really !!" He replied

"What you want to eat ?" I asked turning my attention back to the refrigerator

"A sandwich will do" he replied sitting on the counter

"So you just gone watch me make it?" I laughed

King smiled at me then folded his arms as he leaned against the cabinet

"I gotta question" I said

"What's your question?" King still was smiling at me, his dimples made him even more irresistible than he already was ..

"What business do you & Caine have together ?" I asked as I made his sandwich

Kings smile faded as he stared me up and down

"Why?"

I turned around and leaned on the counter folding my arms

"I just felt like I should know what exactly I'm waiting a month or more to actually be with you for .." I replied ..

King sighed in frustration "E'mani let that guard of yours down !! Ain't nobody lyin to you, & I ain't playin with you !! Everything I said I meant" he responded sliding off of the counter

"I just wanted to know" I replied throwing my hands up in the air ..

"It ain't shit to know" he replied

"What is it dealing with ? Drugs ? The club ?"

King sighed "E'mani, it aint important !! Leave it alone .."

I handed him his plate and he walked out of the kitchen .. What Caine did for a living was no secret, but he also did allot on the side .. With me dealing with King I wanted to know what I was dealing with ..

King sat on the couch and I sat at the opposite end ..

"Where do you live ?" I asked

"Atlanta" he took another bite of his sandwich

"So .. how would that work for us ?"

"We'll make it work" he said looking over my way

I stared at King as he watched tv .. I was way out of character dealing with King & Caine and little did they know I didn't like it .. Waiting for a man or even feeling for a man the way I was was very out of character for me .. The E'mani I knew would've said fuck both of them a while ago !! The whole situation had me confused .. I got up and headed to my bedroom and laid down ..
