A Thug's Cry

Chapter 12

(4weeks later) Deyla Pov

I woke up from the bright morning sun peeking through the black satin curtains in August's room. I gently slipped from under his grip and made my way to his joint bathroom. Over the last few weeks August and I have really grown to know each other, I would say we had that "bestfriend" type relationship and I couldn't ask for anything better.

I turned the knob on the pearled faucet and begin my face routine before I took my shower. After about 40 minutes of prepping I decided on wearing my all Adidas outfit.

Stepping into the closet I grabbed my clothes and removed my shower robe. As I slid the robe off my back I felt familiar arms wrap around the back of my waist. Feeling my comfort, he roamed my body exploring every part of me that was exposed. Before he made his way down I turned to face him.

"August don't even try it." I told him. This was a everyday thing, I was still a virgin and just because we have been dating for a few weeks now doesn't mean that was about to change. My virginity is special to me. You can find any female that will just let you fuck... but with me I want to make sure I'll forever have a bond with whoever I give it away to.

"Girl one day you gone come begging for what I got." He said smacking his lips as he spoke.

"You watch way too many movies." I laughed at him. I quickly threw my clothes on, not wanting this to go any further than it has. Sure I wasn't against doing other things with August, but what's the rush? I still feel like im figuring him out anyways after all this is my first relationship.

August is a guy he doesn't understand how different it is with females growing up. Its like the baby boys run their mom's life completely, but if baby girl wants to do something she is always being to "grown." He doesn't know what life on lock down is like. I purposely choose not to question him about his past because im his present and I feel as if his old hoes don't matter. Of course I have my doubts time to time, but I won't go on a rampage until he shows me he's guilty of something. As of now I have no reason not to trust him.

"Alrigh so look I gotta handle sum shit today." He said before throwing on a all white tee and cargo shorts. "But I'll be back after dat and we can do sum later." He spoke.

I wasn't surprised it's usually me all alone everyday or me and Rayven. Rayven is Des's younger cousin, we are the same age so we share some of the same interest. She reminds me of myself, quiet but not to be mistaken for weak. I could consider her to be my bestfriend, hell she is my only friend. I learned early on in life that keeping a small circle could save a whole lot of drama and problems.

"That's fine. "I'll just go with Rayven until you come back." I replied.

"Mmm.." he said disgruntled.

"Problem?" I asked. He did this everytime I mentioned Rayven's name. It was really starting to annoy me because I don't act like that everytime he goes out.

"We good." He said before pecking my lips and leaving out the room. I heard the door slam, letting me know he had left the house.

I picked up my new Iphone August bought me two weeks ago for my birthday, and dialed Rayven's number.

"Nowww you wanna call?" She shouted into the phone. I pressed the green button as we switched over to FaceTime. "Ohh look I can see your head and its not up August's ass." She joked.

"Shut up crybaby." I laughed into the phone. "Come get me lets get lunch and hit the mall today."

"10/4!" "Oh maybe a pedicure too chica? These feet on corn status right now." She said before hanging up.

Rayven literally made me love her crazy ass. Her personality clicked with mine the moment we met, and she declared us bestfriends at that moment. The guys loved her too she was small framed with long black wavy hair, and a slight spanish accent. Her green eyes captured attention with just one look and her aura locked anyone in.

The knob to the front door turned and Raveyn came bursting through "Heyyy__!" I blurted out before being snatched into a tight squeeze.

"I missed you chica!" She yelled.

"I missed you too.. but I just seen you yesterday." I said wiggling out of her grip.

"What you tynna say?" She said making me laugh at her antics.

"Lets go loca." I called her. I pet named her Loca because of her personality. It stuck with others too and became her nickname.

We got into her black on black jeep and headed towards the mall first.

"Soo how is everything with you and August?" She questioned.

"As good as it can be so far.. I mean we are still in the beginning faze." I told her.

"What do you mean "beginning faze"." She asked raising her eyebrows. " You mean to tell me he ain't pop that pussy yet." " Or should I say wolf monkey cause I know damn well you ain't shaving for nobody else." She said

"Loca!! I do shave." I replied "just because I haven't had sex yet doesn't mean I don't groom myself." I said playfully rolling my eyes at her.

"Mhmm.. " she said side-eyeing me. It fell into a comfortable silence as we drove listening to the music she had playing in the car.

It be over before it even begun, I only catch feelings feel attraction then I run. I Dont wanna leave but I can't stay I know its hard dealing with a heart that you didn't break. Im a crook baby im a robber baby steal your heart then its over baby I dont wanna meet your mother and father baby cause we ain't going no farther baby. See when love is lost its depressing baby and I ain't got time for the depression baby see you been stressing lately cause I ain't been calling and texting lately. I fall back from all that when I feel you feeling to special baby ......

I know I had to be careful about they way I move since the incident with Chance the other day. I knew he would have people looking for me soon so I needed to prepare my men at the warehouse.

"All yall needa be ready for anything coming our way, I gotta target on my back and aint no time for fucking mistakes."

Everybody nodded in agreement and moved to the back to ready the weapons for the next couple of days.

"Yo!" Des said grabbing my attention as he walked over to the leather sofa I was sitting on. We dapped each other up and he sat down next to me. I passed the half smoked blunt to him as he talked.

"Deyla been hanging out with Rayven alot lately cuh." He stated.

I shook my head. "Ion know her motives bruh.. she ain't say nothing to her after all this time they been hanging out, so I guess we all good."

"Yeah as long as she don't start talking." Des replied.

"I aint even trippin man." I replied inhaling the smoking and blowing it back out through my nose.
