Perfect (18)

"Thanks for helping me put the place together!" Tracy smiled as DJ sat down the last flat iron.

"No problem you my girl!" Jacob laughed. "I also got to get away from Mariah for a while."

"It's probably just the pregnancy." Tracy giggled. "It will be over in 7 months."

"It's gonna be a long ass 7 months." Jacob laughed.

"So, Tracy when are you gonna let Chresanto plant some seeds in you?" DJ smiled.

"When we're ready!" Tracy smiled.

"You mean when you're ready...I'm ready." Chresanto smiled.

"We just need to fix some things before I even consider getting pregnant." Tracy says.

"DJ, when are you gonna try and find that special girl?" Jacob asks as they walked out the salon.

"Uhh...When I feel as if I need a special girl in my life." DJ says switching his eyes.

"You're still young! Take your time." Chresanto says. "It really is worth waiting for."

"Chresanto shut up! You were hollerin' at me until you found out it was actually me." Tracy laughed.

"Wait what?" DJ asks confused.

Tracy locks up the store and joins the circle on the side walk where they're all talking.

"Well..." Chresanto began.

"Nah, let me tell the story." Jacob laughed. "This is what happened."

Flashback...

"Aye man it was crazy at the club!" Jacob said as they pulled up to Waffle House.

"Hell yeah, and you know this is the first place to check and see who was shootin' up the club." Chresanto said as he got out the car.

"Waffle House!" Jacob laughed.

There was a line outside making everyone wait for a table to be open. Everyone either went here or IHOP to go eat after clubbing.

"Aye, you got your gun with you? Cops down the street." Jacob said as he looked at the cops coming for Waffle House.

"Shit! Yeah! Aye, go put these in one of those hoes purses." Chresanto says trying to hand Jacob the gun.

"Hell nah!" Jacob said putting his hands up. "You better go do that yo self! I ain't riskin' shit!"

"Ladies go ahead with your business, we'll just be checking the guys." One of the officers says.

Chresanto secretly backed into the crowd and scooted along the wall to find a girl with a big purse. Once Chresanto finally spotted a girl he ran moved through the crowd over to her. He slid his gun in her purse along with $600.

"What are you doing?" The girl asked looking at Chresanto.

"Listen, baby I need you to hold that for me." Chresanto says showing off his perfect smile.

"nuh uh! I ain't holding shit!" The girl said about to open her purse but Chresanto distracted her.

"Come on beautiful! Be a good princess for your king!" He smiled.

"My king?" The girl questioned.

"Only because a king will always protect his loved one's!"

"Whatever!" The girl smiled.

"Thanks my beautiful princess!" Chresanto says before jogging back over to Jacob.

"Did you get rid of it?" Jacob asked.

"Yeah, the hoe over there with the poofy curly hair with the dyed red ends." Chresanto explained.

End of Flashback....

"So y'all met because he had to get rid of a gun?" DJ laughed. "That's crazy man!"

"You find love and those most craziest places bro!" Chresanto laughed.

"So, how did you meet Mariah, Jacob?" DJ asked.

"She was walkin' with Tracy wheb Tracy came looking for Chresanto so she could return the gun to him....man I cant believe all that happened 2 years ago. I remember that shit like it was yesterday." Jacob sighed.

"Well, it's getting late! we better get home before anything can happen." Tracy sighs.

"DJ I'll take you home bro." Jacob says walking to his car and DJ following him.

"Welp...we better get going." Tracy smiled.

"Yeah..." Chresanto smiled.

Tracy and Chresanto got into his car and drove off from the Salon. Chresanto drove around for about 30 minutes and Tracy began noticing that he was going the wrong way.

"Chres, you're going the wrong way." Tracy says looking out the window.

"No im not!" Chresanto smiled. "Just hold on!"

After driving for about 5 more minutes Chresanto put Tracy in a blindfold. He guided her up the steps and in front of the door. He opened the door and smiled.

"Can I take it off now?" Tracy asked.

"Yes my queen!" Chresanto says uniting the knot of the blindfold.

Tracy looked around the huge place and realized she was standing in a nice condo.

"Chresanto you didnt!" Tracy smiled.

"Yeah baby!" He says as he wrapped his hands around her waist. "We can finally live together. I knew this was your last week in your apartment which is why I told your manager not to bring anything up with you about a new lease." He explained.

"Oh Chresanto what about furniture and my clothes?" Tracy asked looking at the empty space.

"We're gonna go furniture shopping tomorrow and we'll also get your clothes. You can bring whatever you want here like pictures and clothes but I'll handle the furniture." He kisses her on the cheek.

"Well let me look around the place some more." Tracy smiled.

She began walking first around the living room. Then she went to the kitchen and the dining room. She walked down the hall into the bedroom and saw a trail of purple rose pedals.

"Oh my gosh!" Tracy smiled.

"Yeah I already picked out all the furniture for the bedroom." He smiled. "I figured we needed a place to sleep."

Tracy smiled as she followed the trail of purple rose pedals. It lead into the master bedroom bathroom which had a Jacuzzi tub, a his and her sink, with a shower/steam shower. The Jacuzzi tub was filled with water and bubbles and also the rose pedals. There were candles on the edges and some champagne in a bucket with ice.

"Oh this is perfect!" Tracy smiled!

Tracy wrapped her arms around Chresanto's neck and kissed him long and passionately.

"Well we shouldn't let this water get cold." Tracy giggled as she began to strip. "Come on Chresanto!" She smiled as she got into the tub.
