*Excuse Mistakes and Enjoy*
Chapter 4:
***********
"This party looks so live," Diamond says as they pull up to a big house with a whole lot of party goers outside.
"Yeah it does. C'mon let's park the car."
For it to be the beginning of September it was pretty chilly at night. Diamond hands Nelly her small cardigan as they lock up the car. The party had just begun but by the looks of it there was so many people already there. They walked into the party as they were greeted with a few thirsty single guys,
"Hey ma, you need to be with a real nigga. " One tall guy says to Diamond as she walks in the entrance.
Rolling her eyes she responds, "Keep your job at Mcdonalds."
Nelly and Diamond laugh at the man's clueless expression and head inside where they find Diamond's boyfriend, Sebastian.
Nelly greets him, "Hey Seb-Seb what's up?"
"Nothing much but this party is poppin'," he says loudly over the music," Me and Diamond are going out to the patio, wanna come?"
She tells him no. She really just wanted to be on her own at the moment. Diamond and Sebastian head on to the patio while pushing through crowds of people. The house smelled of weed and other contents Nelly couldn't quite explain herself. There was a lot of people in the hallways talking and
drinking. She finally made her way over to the kitchen island and sat down.
The house was big and beautiful. It was kinda cozy too. While in thought the Dj yelled out,
"This is for the couples! Let's get it!"
Then "Chris Brown- Yo Excuse Me Miss" played. The lights dimmed and everyone danced and partied while Nelly sat alone thinking of an escape route.
Looking around she noticed a man in the crowd by himself. She couldn't quite make out his face but could notice his figure. Not thinking nothing of it she went and got a drink from the snack table. When she looked over again he was gone. What really puzzled here was the fact that he was all alone by himself without anyone. It seemed as though everyone was paired up but him. Brushing it off she continued to drink her liquor.
"Hello there. " A deep sexy voice sounded behind her. She knew it had to be the man in the crowd. She prayed to the heavens that he was fine.
"Why hel--" she was stunned by his sexiness as she turned around. He was muscular with a few tattoos on his arms. The most beautiful greenish-brown eyes the sparkled as she looked at him.
Taking a seat he smiled, "My name is Apollo. "
But before she could respond she heard a gun fire,
"Pow!"
As he grabbed her to the floor she happened to look up and see the shooter. It was Rick.
"Come on!" Apollo yelled and they ran out the front door.
It was hard to concentrate with all the screams and hollers. All she could think of was, where was Diamond?
They run up the street to his Mercedes Benz. He had to be making money.
"Wait! I can't get in the car with you! I don't know where my friend is and I don't know you. "
"Look, you can call her after we get further away from here and don't worry I'm saving your life. "
They get in the car and he drives off at top speed.
To begin with she barely knew this guy and he was speeding. He could kill them both.
"Slow down! I think we're far enough just stop at that gas station. " she says to him as they turn the corner onto a street.
*Apollo's POV*
Man, she was pretty and all but I really didn't need some women telling me what to do. There was a reason why I decided to talk to her. It definitely wasn't because of her gracefulness but because she had this nice vibe about her. It was almost like I needed to have her, like if I had her in my arms everything would be right with the world.
I wanted to stay with her all night but I had to go back to these trap houses to check up on things. I truly wasn't planning on taking her with me. She didn't need to know me as a "drug dealer" or anything. By the way she was talking on the phone with her friend I could tell that she was nervous but after she got back in the car everything seemed okay.
"She's alright. Take me home. "
She was a little feisty thing. So short and cute. I promised to myself I would take her home but not without getting them digits.
We finally got to her house.
"Look, I want to get to know you better. Can we go out sometime. " I asked in hopes that she wouldn't take it the wrong way.
"Of course. "
She gave me her number.
"Thank you for taking me home and saving my life."
" Oh you don't hav--"
"No, really, thank you. " she said as she kissed my cheek.
"Bye. " leaving me breathless she smiled and got out the car.
I watched her beautiful body go inside the house and pulled off.
I was happy at the moment until my phone rang. I looked at the screen and saw the name "Dana" pop up. This was one of my tricks. All she wanted was money. I hit the decline button and kept riding to my first trap house which my friend Red took care of.
