Can a Thug Love A Nerd?

Chapter 23

Sorry for the late update

Rocky POV

"Hello" I whispered. My phone rung while I was listening to Jay and Fizz argue.

"Why are you whispering?" Adrian asked. When I realized it was him I backed away from the door and headed to my room. I didn't hear anymore yelling so I figured they made up but I'm still not letting them out.

"Uh nothing. What's up?" I  sat on my bed.

" I just wanted to hear your voice, since we haven't talked in a while." he responded.

"Yeah, I know, I've been so busy with family drama." I sighed.

"What's been going on, ma?" he questioned.

"Just a lot of shit." I simply stated.

"But can I ask you something?" 

"Sure."

"Are you just tryna fuck or nah?" I boldly asked. I wanted the truth and I'm not about beat around the bush. He started laughing and wasn't shit funny.

"I'm serious Adrian." I said with a straight face even though he can't see me.

"I know which makes it funny but no I ain't just trying fuck you. Where did you even hear that from?" I could tell he was amused.

"Well Shawn sa--" he quickly cut me off.

"That nigga! I don't know why you listen to him."

"He's like my best friend and I know he wouldn't tell me something like that unless he was looking out for me." I explained.

"Don't you see he's just trying to come in between us?" I got up to check on Malachi, he was sleeping peacefully in he's Teenage Mutan Ninja Turtles Pajamas.

"Why would he do that?" I put my hand on my curvy hip.

"I don't know, he might secretly like you." I smacked my lips when he said that.

"He's in a relationship." I stated.

"That don't mean anything."

"I gotta go." I told him when I heard  Malachi call my name.

"But we just got on the phone." he had an attitude by now.

"I know but I'm babysitting my nephew and he needs me."

"Yeah, whatever." he hung up. I don't care if he is feeling some type of way, my nephew comes before him.

I went into Malachi's room, where he was crying.

"What's wrong Kai? I asked while going to sit on his bed.

"Da monsters were chasing me and I can't get away." he explained. I knew he had a bad dream once he said that.

"You know Auntie Rocky will protect you." I tickled his tummy making him giggle.

"Stop Auntie." he was laughing until I stopped.

"Come on little bit." I got off his bed and held out my hand.  He put his tiny hand in mine then we made our way to my room. I pulled out two movies.

"Spiderman or Power Rangers?" I asked.

"Spiderman!" he shrieked jumping up and down.

"Okay." I put it in and turned off the lights, only leaving the lamp on.

We laid down my bed facing the tv. About 30 minutes later I heard little snores which meant Malachi was asleep and that's all I remembered before drifting off into a deep sleep.
