Taking Out A Player

Chapter 23

JayJay POV:

I was planning on picking up Cherry from work and hanging out over her house today. I checked to make sure I got all my stuff before going downstairs.

"Dee. I'm going out!" I yelled as I headed to the garage.

"Hold on," he said as he walked toward me.

I reluctantly stopped in my tracks. I wonder what this guy had to say.

Dee came to me. "So you going out with Cherry?"

I nodded. "Ya. We hanging out."

"So what y'all gonna do?" I swear Dee is asking a lot of questions.

"Nun. We're going over her house... Probably just watch some Netflix and chill for a while."

Dee raise his eyebrows. "Netflix and chill?"

I was silent for a minute until I mentally hit myself over the head. Why the hell I say Netflix and chill? I didn't even mean it like that. I was literal about just chillin and watch some movies on Netflix. My brother not going to trust me enough to go since he think I'm planning on smashing.

Dee had a straight face on. "Ok."

I looked at him shocked. Did he really say that? "Fr. This not a joke."

Dee shook his head. "Nawl man. You can go, but there's some rules."

I groan and rolled my eyes. Here we go.

"One, you can't spend the night over there. You better be here at 12," he started.

"You know what we can do until then," I mumbled under my breath.

Dee glared at me. "Don't make me change my mind."

I stayed quiet.

"Don't have sex. If you do, you better wrap that thing up tighter than Prince's pants," he said.

We both laughed a little. "Aite man," I said.

"I'm serious. I don't have time for you to get a girl pregnant or catching diseases again."

"Ok... ok. Jeez. That was one time," I said.

Dee really getting on my nerves with this. I slip up one time, and he goes into all protective mode and bringing it up. I can't get mad. He just trying to help me out, but damn he can cold down with it. At least, he letting me go over there.

"And you lucky as hell that it didn't turn out worse than it was," he said.

I sighed. Ya. I'm one lucky motherfucker. Right now, I could have been a father with a STD. Dee don't understand how much I had learned my lesson. That shit made me rethink my life. I wasn't planning on fucking Cherry. The girl don't seem like the type who gives it up so easily. I really want to take things slow with her.

"Aite man. Go pick Cherry up before you're late," Dee said while patting my back.

I didn't hesitant when he said that. I didn't want to hear anything else he was going to bring up.

"Tell Cherry I said hey," Dee called after me.

"I got you," I said without looking back.

I made it to Cherry's job just as she walked out the door. She smiled as she got in the car.

"Hey," she said.

"Wassup ma," I said. I pulled out the the parking lot and drove off.

"So we're chillin over my house today," she said. "You want to order out or cook?"
