Why Do Fools Fall In Love

4.

"Bro this bitch lit as fuck." Tevin said nodding his head to the music. Cannon nodded his head as his eyes scanned over the club from the balcony rail that separated him in his niggas from the rest of the club. Tonight was the grand opening of his homeboys new club and him and his boys came out to show support. 

"I see you on yo best behavior tonight nigga," Bear joked with Tevin who had been chilling the whole night.

"Im chillin." Tevin smirked taking a hit from his freshly rolled blunt. 

"Don't let this cornball fool y'all niggas his ass only playing cool cuz his ole lady suppose to be stepping out with her homegirls." Cannon said giving them the rundown.

Bear laughed because he knew it had to have something to do with Tevin's crazy ass girlfriend. 

"Man fuck y'all. She don't run a nigga. I do what I want believe dat." Tevin said cockily. 

Chuckling Cannon took a swig from the bottle of Hennesey he had been working on since he got to the club. Turning his attention back to the dance floor he nodded his head to "Big Facts" by Moneybagg Yo.

"Damn. Who is that?" Bear said out loud. 

Curious to see who or what Bear was talking about he looked in the same direction. Following behind two buff security were three ladies being escorted to the section across from them. Cannon couldn't help but stare because all three of them were cold. It was rare to see females in they own section, normally hoes would be begging to sit up in somebody else's VIP section and then act fake bougie like they was somebody. 

"Ayeee ain't that Selena?" Bear said grabbing Tevin's attention.

Tevin looked in the direction Bear had pointed to and sure enough that was his girlfriend in the section across from them. She was too busy laughing with her homegirls to even notice he was there. 

"Nigga why you ain't tell us her friends was bad." 

"Gone head on man. Leave them alone."

Meanwhile, Selena had already peeped her man and was trying her hardest to ignore him and all his homeboys staring at them. The last thing she needed was for any of them to come over here causing trouble. She was here to show her girls a could time and thats exactly what she planned to do. Once the bootle girl finished taking their orders the three got comfortable on the couch in there section while taking in their surroundings. 

"Y'all good?" Selena asked over the music.

Tommie nodded her head as she swayed her hips to the beat. She was definitely feeling good and her best friend was the one to blame. 

As the night progressed and the girls bottles arrived all three were drunk. While Selena had run off and was giving her man a lap dance, and Tai was entertaining one of his friends Tommie was sitting off to the side by herself making posts on her Instastory and snapchat. She was literally in her own world chilling. When she got up to use the restroom, Cannon thought it was the perfect time to see what was up wit her. 

"So you came out to stand in the corner by yourself and be on ya phone the entire time," a deep voice questioned from behind her as she exited the restroom. He was so close she could smell his cologne. 

"Maybe. she spoke her eyes still glued to her phone screen. "

"If thats the case you coulda saved this sexy ass shit you wearing for a better occasion. You out here looking this good for no reason." He spoke leaning further down towards her ear. 

"I look good in everything I wear so nothing goes to waste."  

The liquor was definitely doing all the talking because it sho nuff wasn't Tommie. 

"Oh is that right ma?" 

"Mhhm." 

"Im just tryna figure out why yo fine ass over here in a da cut alone. Where ya homegirls at?"

"They doing they own thing, and I'm just chilling at the moment."

A part of her was curious to see who it was talking to her but on the other hand she was afraid to be met with another corny ass nigga. The entire night niggas was trying to shoot their shot with Tommie and she simply wasn't having it. She didn't necessarily have high standards but the men that were approaching were dead ass wrong for even trying. Turning around Tommie was met with what might be one of the finest men she had ever seen, and she had come across some good looking men in her nineteen years of living.  She studied all his features not caring about how rude it was to stare. God had definitely took his time with this man. From his pink plump lips that screamed kiss me, to his dark brown eyes that held no emotion. His light Caramel complexion filled was filled with tattoos up and down his arms and neck. 

"You like what you see ma?" he said taking a step closer towards her, causing Tommie to take a step back. 

He was all in her personal space. 

"No. Sorry but you ain't my type." Tommie retorted quickly stepping around him to only be pulled right back by her waist. 

Tommie didn't know if it was the liquor or this man but she was definitely feeling some kind of way. Cannon smirked to himself, he found it cute that shorty was tryna play hard to get. Deciding to entertain the little game she was playing he grabbed by her waist and into the private room that was directly across from the bathroom she had just walked out of. Making sure he locked the door behind him he gently raised Tommie on the top of the mini bar that was off to the side. Standing in between her legs he pulled her closer to his face her hand on rested on his chest. His low eyes held held an intense stare as he watched her watch him.  He grabbed her chin and brought her lips up to his. He softly pressed his lips against hers, feeling her soft lips press back against his. He tugged lightly at her bottom lip to gain access, which she obliged letting his tongue graze hers. Our tongues fought for dominance before she gave in letting me take control, while my free hand grip her thigh rubbing up and down it. Placing her hand on the side of his face she slowly pulled away from his lips. Her face holding a unreadable expression. 

"I-i have to go," she whispered pushing Cannon back gently and she slid down from the bar countertop. 

She quickly exited shutting the door behind her not sparing him a second look. Taking a second to gather her thoughts before she made her way back to her girls Tommie couldn't believe what just happened. 

Meanwhile on the other side of the door Cannon was stuck with a semi hard on. Adjusting himself in his joggers he couldn't help  but shake his head, knowing it was only a matter of time before he ran into shorty again.  

"Girl where the hell was you at? Getting some dick in the bathroom stall sis?" Tai questioned in a joking manner.

"Pipe down I was taking pictures." she lied easily. 

"Well lena going home with her man, and Im mufakin tied. You ready to go?"

Tommie nodded sliding her phone inside her clutch, she following behind her best friend as they headed towards the exit. Tommie looked behind her only to be met with a already staring Cannon. Turning back around quickly she said a little prayer.

Lord keep that devil away from me.

She didn't need any distractions and the way he had her just a few minutes ago she knew thats exactly what he would be.
