Compton's Trillest: Chapter 3

~A Few Weeks Later~ 

"Are you sure you can watch her?" I heard Mommy say. I was in my room trying to put my leggings on but I kept getting it twisted.

"Yeah it's not a problem." Was that who I thought?

"Alright, I'll be back in a little while." I finally got my pink leggings on and slipped on my slipper boots and ran down the hall to the living room.

"Sage!" I screamed with a laugh as he picked me up. This time I gave him a kiss on his cheek first.

"There she is. I was worried where you were." He laughed too as he gave me my kiss.

"What are we doing today?"

"I'm gon' take you to the arcade."

"Where's that? And what is that?"

"An arcade is where kids go to play a bunch of games. There's a new one that opened up a block away from the corner store, so we gon' go there." I heard him grab his keys and walk out of the house. He put me down on the ground and grabbed my hand.

"We're walking?"

"Yup. If you get tired, I'll carry you." I want him to carry me now. Sage was mine. I loved him a lot.

*Pause*

"You had a thing for Sage? His ass was 10 years older than you!" Varo said with a laugh.

"I loved him like no other. I don't care, age is just a number but I loved his smile, his laugh, his tattoos, grill, his style, the fact he was so tall, just everything about him." If Sage hadn't have met Tiffany, I'm sure I would have had him the second I turned 18.

"Reminds me of 'Nessa and Chris, well now August."

"Older guys, I'm telling you but I have you." I said as I gave him a kiss. "And you're much better. Especially since I'm the one thing you're scared of."

*Continuing*

When we got there, I saw a lot of lights and shiny things. It was really cool.

"Where are the other kids?" I only saw a few kids.

"It's like 9 in the morning, most other kids are still asleep Auburn." I looked up at him but saw something in his pocket.

"What's that." I said as I pointed to it.

"That's my gun. You're not allowed to touch it."

"Why do you have one?"

"You never know Auburn. Something might go down and it's best to stay strapped all the time. I should teach you how to use one, one of these days. I think you'd look cute with a gun in your hand." He said with a smile.

"Can it be pink?"

"Yes it can. I'll find you a pink gun. Lets go play with the games, cause I wanna be a kid again." I nodded my head and went up to some machine.

"What's this?" I asked.

"Donkey Kong. You're a monkey and you have to collect the bananas without getting hurt by enemies." He took a seat on the stool and sat me on his lap. "Okay that's me." He pointed to a monkey. "And I have to collect bananas by using this stick to move." I nodded my head. I laid back against him and let out a yawn. I was a little tired.

I tried to keep my eyes open but I was really comfy in his lap. I could hear his heart beat going really slow and I closed my eyes.
