Thick & Thin

Chapter Thirteen; Is That Your Chick?

After unlocking the door, Kelly opened it and looked around; cautiously.

"Oh my god. Come on!" an impatient Beyoncé blurted out and pushed her out of the way. She dropped Kelly's shopping bags by the stairs and looked at her terrified friend.

"Where are they?"

"I don't know, but you're not leaving this house until he does!" Kelly whispered and closed the door; calling herself locking Beyoncé in with her.

She couldn't help but laugh. "You are such a damn sissy!" B mumbled and walked into the kitchen, immediately getting an answer to the question she had just asked.

"Wussup B!" Roy looked up from the table and greeted her. Greg looked up and was about to do the same, but held back.

"Hey Roy! Who's your friend?" Beyoncé smirked and leaned on the counter.

"Greg, my supervisor!" Roy said before taking his eyes off of the paperwork in front of him and looking at her again.

"Hi Greg!" she grinned. "I'm Beyoncé. His wife's best friend!"

Greg bit made sure to bite his tongue, knowing exactly what she was doing. Beyoncé was definitely no stranger to him. She was actually the one that hooked him and Kelly up back in the day, being as though they were casual associates. Knowing Kelly and her friends, she had probably already informed them about their little encounter the other day.

He caught on quickly to Beyoncé's little act and decided to reply. "Beyoncé huh? It's nice to meet you!"

"Mmmhm. You too!" she retorted and eyed him. Roy chuckled and shook his head; automatically labeling her behavior as flirtatious.

Much to Kelly's dismay, Roy was still completely oblivious to what had happened.

She trailed in seconds later, Beyoncé- discretely giving her the head nod that everything was still cool.

"Hey Babe!" Kelly muttered and kissed Roy's head. "Hey Greg!" she mustered up all the strength she could and decided to greet him too instead of continuing her obvious 'I did something wrong' persona. "What are you two up to?"

"Nothin, getting some work done on this new presentation." he replied before dropping the papers in his hand and typing away on his laptop.

"In here?"

"Yeah, they were doing some construction at the office and we came here!"

"K!" Kelly retorted and tried her best to ignore the short eye contact Greg kept trying to make with her on the sly.

"Oh babe. You mind cookin a little bit extra, by the rate this is going, he's probably gonna be staying for dinner too." he scratched his head and looked at her.

"Uhhmm.."

"Im good man." Greg spoke up.

"Nah man, it's alright. She doesn't mind!" Roy interjected. "Ain't that right baby!? She loves cooking for people!"

Beyoncé chuckled and opened the fridge to hide the tickled expression on her face. Kelly had really gotten herself in some deep shit this time.

"Well, if you insist!" Greg shrugged and smiled at the both of them.

"Oh he is really trippin today!" Beyoncé mumbled under her breath, loud enough for only Kelly to hear, or so she thought.

"What was that B?"

"Oh nothing, I just said I was about to leave." She smiled and looked at Kelly. "Bye girl! I'll talk to you later."

"I'll walk you out!" Kelly muttered through clenched teeth.
