LOVE ON THE BRAIN

LOVE ON THE BRAIN PART 12

"Another drug dealer I work for is on vacation, we can go raid his shit, because he doesn't trust his workers to be at his trap house when he isn't there," Stacey said to Black. "We," Black said questioning her ? "Yes we, me and you, Shay can't come she need to stay and get rest. "Why are you helping us," Black asked? "Well, you got to get out my house one day," Stacey replied. I looked at Black. He looked at me.  "So, how you want to do this," Black asked Stacey? "He leaves a key to the house in his ice chest in the shed, we get inside, tear his shit up, find what we need, and dip," Stacey told him making everything sound so easy. "When," Black asked? "Tonight," Stacey replied.

Black and I finished our breakfast and went back to the room. "I don't like this," I complained to Black. "Me neither baby, but we got to do what we got to do," Black said trying to reassure me. I left it alone. I didn't feel like arguing. I went roll up my blunt in the bathroom. "You good," Black asked me? I'm fine Black. I just hope the bitch ain't on no sneaky shit. What you mean? I mean her trying to get the both of you alone together. Black laughed. What the fuck funny, Black? "Baby, I had her at gun point, I doubt she want to fuck me, he said jokingly. "Ok," I replied nonchalantly. He got on his knees in front of me. You are the only one I want to be with and in time I will prove that to you. I lit my blunt and nodded.

Hours go by, Stacey knocks at the door. "Hey we are going to leave at midnight, I told Tony we're going out to the casino," Stacey said peeking her head through the door. "Ok," Black replied. Stacey shut the door. Black grabbed his boots and started to put them on. "Please be careful and watch your back with that hoe," I told Black. Black replied, "I got you, ma." He came over gave me a kiss on the forehead. "Get some rest, I'll be back before you know it," Black said heading out the door. I nodded.

I can't sleep knowing Black is out there with her. I go in the kitchen and put on a pot of coffee and took some pain meds. I heard the front door open. I ran towards the living room in hope it was Black and Stacey. It was Tony. "Oh hey Tony," I said disappointed. "Hey Shay, what are you doing here," Tony asked me confused? "I didn't feel like going out," I replied. We headed back to the kitchen. "You want some coffee," I asked Tony? "Sure," he replied. I poured his cup. "You ok," he asked me? I'm fine. I can see your not fine. You look like your world is coming to an end. "I just have a lot going on with me, but I'm a big girl I can handle it," I told him. He walked over to me and cornered me in the kitchen by the counter. He brushed my hair out of my face. "Maybe that's the problem, you need to stop trying to handle it by yourself," Tony said placing his finger under my chin picking my head up. A tear dripped down my cheek. I don't need to know your personal business to see that your hurting Shay, just know I'm here to talk when your ready. He backed away from me. Grabbing his coffee and brief case, he walked to his room.

I didn't know how to feel. Tony had made me feel so comfortable just with that encounter. I felt my body attracted to him when he came over by me. The complete opposite of Black, I felt a presence of stability and safeness when he was around. His cologne smelled wonderful. I wanted to just dive in his strong arms and hold him. I walked into Tony's room. "You want to smoke," I asked him eyes full of tears?
