For The Love of Money

1

"Man bae...you gotta go? You can skip one day can't you?" Zyier asked, kissing on her neck. Fatima giggled and got out of the bed. "Yes I do have to go. We have an exam today and I can't afford to miss it. It makes up 80% of my grade." She said taking off his shirt and handing it to him. He huffed and snatched it from her, rolling over. Fatima laughed and blew him a kiss, heading for the bathroom. She knew he was mad but she needed to go to class if she planned on passing the bar. In Atlanta, most girls her age are either strippers, video vixens, or both. 'My own twin sister is a stripper. I don't know why she does that, when she can go to school but hey to each it's own. I'm not gonna be like her or any of the other girls in this city. I want the money without having to shake my ass and open my legs.' She thought as she turned on the shower and looked at herself in the mirror. "Damn you fine." Zyier stepped behind her and put his arms around her waist, resting his chin on her shoulder. "You ain't so bad yourself." She said smiling. Lord knows he broke the mold when he made that man. Smooth chocolate skin, pretty white teeth and  dreads that Fatima got to pull on every night. She was in love with Zyier, have been ever since senior year in high school. But his love for the streets just really got on her nerves. "What are you doing today?" She asked him, stepping into the shower. " Imma go see Damian and them. And come back here and wait for your fine ass to come home." He said making Fatima roll my eyes. Damian and the rest of them niggas ain't nothing but trouble. That drug shit that she keeps telling him to stay away from. That same shit that killed her daddy. "I know you rolling your eyes but it ain't like that." He said making her roll them even harder. "What I would love for you to do.. is sign up for some college classes and to go to school." Fatima said when she saw the shower curtain move. She didn't need to turn around to know that he had just got in with her. "I am bae I promise. I just gotta figure out what I wanna go for." He said kissing the nape of her neck, sending shivers down her back and awakening her girl down there. " I love you babygirl." He said kissing Fatima's shoulder. She turned around and met his lips with hers . "I love you too." She said letting his tongue find it's way to her own. A volcano of passion erupted between them, as he gently squeezed her ass, pulling her in closer to him. Fatima let out a soft moan, while he let his hands explore the depths of her body. "Fatima!!!!" Faith busted into the bathroom. "Oh shit. Excuse me. I was just gonna tell you that mama wanted to see you after school." Faith said, closing the door back. Zyier tried to kiss Fatima when she put a finger up to his lips. "Finish this later?" She kissed him on the lips and turned around to lather her loofah and bathe. 'I know he is mad, but shit Faith just ruined my whole mood bruh like why not knock before you come in anyway? If Zyier ain't out there, he had to be in here with me..common sense.' She thought to herself, He smacked his teeth and got out of the shower. "Better go jack off." Fatima mumbled and continued her bath. Getting out,she grabbed the pink towel and wrapped it around her body to leave out of the bathroom. "Why are you still here?" She asked Faith on her way to her room. "Because I thought you were gonna make breakfast this morning. You got school ms law student?" She asked following behind her. "Actually, I do. And you can go and wait in the living room. My man is in here and I have to get dressed." Fatima said closing the door in her sister's face. "What are you doing after you leave class?" Zyier asked her turning the tv on. "I'm going to have lunch with Xavier and then go see my mama I guess." She said getting dressed, she had to kinda do a jump to get into her jeans. "Remind me to go shopping."  She said, modeling her outfit in the mirror. "Damn" Zyier said pausing his game to look at his love. Fatima smiled, knowing she looked good. "See you later baby." She kissed his lips and grabbed her book bag. "Bye Faith." Fatima said walking past her in the kitchen eating a pop tart. Nobody can really tell them apart. Same shape, hair color, all the way down to the tattoos. Only thing different is Faith got her nipples pierced and Fatima thinks that should be a sin. "Wait!" Faith came running out of her condo as Fatima was getting into her black Dodge Durango. "What girl?" She asked putting her book bag in the passenger seat. "Have a good day at school. Love you." Faith said kissing her twin's cheek and getting into her car. 'That girl got so many cars, I guess stripping was good to her. I couldn't do it though.'She thought as she rolled her eyes playfully and pulled off. Law school was taking it's toll on her, but she was determined to finish and she expected to be at the top of her class when she did. Zyier was supportive of everything and Fatima just was glad to have him in her life really. She knew he about to go get his hands dirty and she really hated that he was. That street life a motherfucker and she was determined not to lose him to the streets like her mama lost her daddy. He promised her a family and She was holding him to it.
