Love The Way You Lie

-Chapter 26-

Caine & I were the last to make it as Kings crew sat on one side of the table and Caine's crew on the other .. King never took his eyes off of me as I sat down next to Caine which just so happened to be right in front of him .. The waiter came over for our drinks and I ordered a cranberry juice with vodka, while Caine got his usual .. Hennessey !!

"So what's up" Caine spoke first glancing over at the other side of the table at King's crew finally letting his eyes fall on King ..

"Yo bruh, if we gone do this shit then we gone have to do it the way we discussed it the first time !! Your people all off script .. and if this the way shit gone be I'm out !!" King said

Caine nodded looking at the table as . If he was thinking .. I didn't know what business they was dealing with each other but I wanted to know ..

"What's the problem B ?" Caine asked

"You know how I am Caine .. ion want no any Tom, Dick, & Harry handlin my business .. we said how we was gone do this shit but every time I turn around it's new faces popping up with my product in they hands .. Ion know these mu'fuckas !!" King replied with annoyance in his voice

"And you know how I get down too nigga .. If I trust'em you should too !! Come on now King .. we started this shit together .. you know I'm bout my business !!"

"We ain't in Atlanta no more either !!" King locked eyes with me as I sipped on my drink

"I know this .. I gotta go back this weekend anyway so while I'm there I'll get them to handle it" Caine said

"That's what im talkin about" King replied with a smirk

"Nigga fuck you .. crybaby ass .. this shit gone take longer because of you" Caine swallowed the last of his Hennessey

"Naw fuck you !! I don't give a damn !!" King laughed as Caine shook his head

I looked between the two still confused as to what had just happened ..

"I'll be back" I whispered in Caine's ear as I got up

I needed some fresh air, being around both of them at the same time was suffocating .. I walked out and headed outside but I stopped dead in my tracks when I seen Mario, he didn't see me because he was too busy staring in some chicks face .. I folded my arms and stood there as I watched him .. I couldn't make out who the female was and I honestly didn't care because I knew she was no E'mani !! I felt slightly jealous and relieved at the same time !! I knew I was no good for Mario .. he was on the right track and I wasn't .. Mario finally looked up and dead into my eyes, I gave him a lazy smile then walked outside .. I wanted a blunt bad, I needed something to take my mind off of everything and everybody .. I sat down on the curb a few feet away from the entrance just watching people go in and out .. their lives seemed so simple !! I wanted that simplicity more than anything .. A normal over-bearing mom, a worrisome dad, and a normal guy that loved me !! No drugs, no poles, just a life where I could focus on school and do everything the right way !!

"You comin back inside ?" I turned around to see Caine walking over to me .. I stood up and dusted my skirt off as I smiled looking up at him ..

"I need a blunt !!" I laughed

He smiled "what's wrong with you ?"

I stared at Caine slightly tilting my head to the side wondering how to tell him he was part of the problem .. but our night was going good and I didn't want to ruin it ..

"Nothin, I'm ready to eat" I replied walking past Caine and heading back inside the restaurant

Caine followed me inside .. I sat back down in my chair in front of King as he glared at me ..

They talked and laughed while I sat there feeling awkward .. I was more than ready to go home .. then Caines phone started ringing .. he glanced at me then walked outside answering his phone .. King sat there grilling me while everybody else was distracted with their own convos ..

"What ?" I finally whispered across the table to him

"Nothin" he replied sipping his Hennessey

"What King ?" I asked again

"You ain't waste no time did you .. I wasn't even gone a couple hours and you already had the nigga between your legs !!"

I sighed "I told him no, just like you .. he dont know what no & stop means !! Plus you the one got me waiting on you !! You cant get mad at nothin that's happened"

King smirked at me while takin a shot .. then Caine walked back in ..

"Let's go Mani"

I got up ready to dismiss myself from the conversation ..

"KOD tonight nigga ?" Caine asked King

"Naw, Im straight .. who I wanna see ain't there no way"
