Heart & Gun - On Hold

Chapter 3

Jahir

"Stand the fuck up nigga! You wanna steal from me? Catch this fade!" I focused myself and stood up. I wasn't no weak nigga and he was about to get fucked up. I punched this ugly ass nigga in the nose hearing it crack, took his head bashing his mouth into my knee, and kicked the dude away from me.

"Yeah, I did steal from yo weak ass and I'll do it again, wassup now?" I bucked at him and he jumped away telling his friends to follow him. I looked behind me and seen Treasure standing in the street with her eyes wide open. I went to touch her and she backed away from me, I don't know if it was because I fought ole dude or because she found out that I'm a thief.

"You really stole from him?" I nodded my head and she mugged me and shook her head. I shrugged my shoulders and looked away, I did not give one fuck about how she felt about what I do.

"So what? You work for someone and they tell you who to rob or do you just like stealing?" This is exactly why I didn't want to be friends with no female, they ask too many damn questions and look at you with this judgy ass look on their face and it just pisses me off.

"I work for myself. I know people in the drug game so they let me know the big ballers and niggas they don't like. Shit, I have people at home I have to feed and other shit to pay for and I'll get my money by anything means necessary." I watched Treasure look me up and down with her arms crossed while biting her lip, I knew what I just said turned her on a little bit. She aint never had no nigga like me speak real shit. I walked up to her and grabbed her hand.

"Let's go ma, there's alot more we need to learn about eachother. I'm tryna pass this class." She grabbed my hand back and followed behind me. It's only a matter of time before she's the girl version of me.

Walking up the driveway I could already tell Treasures family had money. I was nervous to even come over here, but my mama don't like people all at the house and shit so fuck it. We got to the porch and she unlocked the door and a small black and brown dog ran up to her and she picked it up.

"Hey Mel baby! How was your day?" She asked the dog as we walked into the house. I locked the door behind me and the dog was barking at Treasure like she knew what she just asked her.

"Okay Mel, mama has to study." Mel walked away and went to go lay somewhere I guess.

"Cute dog, is Mel short for anything?"

"Thanks and yeah, Melanin." She smirked and I licked my lips. She took my hand and led me up the long staircase. We got to this door that was painted pink with Tre' painted in black letters, I guess that was her nickname. She opened the door and I was blinded by more pink and black. She had a big ass bed tho, a study desk, dressers, one of those mirror things all the girls want and more.

"So your name is Treasure, your nickname is Tre', your favorite colors are pink and black, you don't like being put in situations that makes you jump out your character, you have a dog named Melanin ; Mel for short, and it looks like you're pretty spoiled. How am I doing so far on this project?" She looked at me with raised eyebrows and I sat in her computer chair. I knew she didn't think I was paying attention to her, but I was. I wanted to know everything about her, she just seemed special to me.

"Well, you're right and you should know that Mel is a Yorkie. Also, I'm not spoiled." She pouted her lips and I raised my eyebrows, she was going to have to get out this spoiled brat shit.

"Anyways, while I only know a little about you. Your name is Jahir, you like to stay behind the scenes, you pay attention to details, and you like to make money. I want to know more." She pulled the computer chair closer to the bed so I was sitting in front of her.

"My favorite color is green because it's the color of money, my favorite food is ribs, I have 3 little sisters, my dad died of a stroke when I was 13, and I kinda want to kiss you right now." I licked my lips and gently pulled her chin closer to me.

"We can't." She pulled away, I was about to ask why and her mom walked inside the room, it was like clock work.

"Oh Tre' who's your little friend?" I smirked and Treasure rolled her eyes. I thought it was funny cause my mama be saying the same thing.

"This is Jahir mom, my partner for this English assignment." I stood up and held out my hand and she took it shaking it.

"Nice to meet you Ms." She sized me up and down, but I knew she liked me already, the moms couldn't resist me.

"Bowen, and it's nice to meet you too. I'll let yall get back to your studies." She walked out the room leaving the door cracked open. I looked at Treasure and she smiled at me sheepishly. I kissed her on the cheek and pushed her back on the bed.

"Come on girl, stop trying to flirt with me and tell me some deeper shit." We both laughed looking into one another's eyes before she broke contact. She tucked some hair behind her ear while biting her lip. She's the one.
