Dreams

Luke

"Thank you momma. I'm out I love you." I said to my mother as I kissed her cheek and she hugged me. The cook out was now over and everyone was gone except for me and my brother Alex that lives with them.

"Al!"

"What up?" He said coming down stairs.

"I'm out bro see ya later. " I adore kissing his forehead making him cringe.

"Dude I told you I'm not a kid no more stop kissing on me. Being gay. " He said making me laugh. No matter how old he got he would always be my baby brother and that wouldn't stop me from showing him the love I always have shown him as a big bro.

"Boy what ever you know you love me too. "

"Blah blah. " He said going back to his room.

"Where pops at? "

"He in the back."

I walked on the back patio and saw my dad in a lawn chair smoking a blunt in the dark.

"I'm out pops."

"Aight boy. Love you." He said standing to shake my hand and kiss my forehead.

I left to my car and drove to my two bedroom apartment. The only reason I got a two bedroom is because Alex would normally come over and stay the night.

My phone rang making me such because I had just got comfortable on my couch.

"Yo? "

"Luke." Christian whisper making me know when done got into some shit.

"What now Chris? "

"Can you come pick me up from Hakeem's house? "

"Yeah man. What the fuck you d- You know what? Just tell me when I get there. " I said hanging up. "This damn girl." I mumbled shaking my head.

I got in my car making sure to grab my gun because me and that nigga Hakeem never got along I don't even know why she was fucking with the low life ass nigga.

I pulled up in front of his house and texted her letting her know I was I outside. She came sneaking out of the front door making me shake my head. She stay cheating on her nigga which is why I don't even be mad when I see him with other hoes.

"Thanks Luke." She said kissing my cheek.

"Ya ya. Why you fucking around on that man?"

"He fucks around on me." She shrugged.

"Then why you wont leave him." I said turning on her street to her house.

"Because I love him and he loves me. We just both have commitment problems."

"Damn girl." I said pulling up at her house and seeing car already in her yard.

"Who is that? " I asked.

"Jerome."

"Tell him I said wassup. " Jerome was my nigga for real. One of my closest niggas honestly. We used to always fight because he make slick remarks about my lil sister but I guess I just can't stop her and what she wants to do.

"Mhm." She hummed getting out. "Love you big bro. "

"Love you to sis. "

On my way back home my phone rang making me sigh. "Can I get a fucking break. " I groaned. "What Yannah." I spat.

"Luke I'm hungry. "

"That ain't got shit to do with me."

"Me and your baby are hungry Luke. Be a man and take care of us."

"Fuck outta here. You ain't even showing yet. Don't try to pin that shit on me. And I ain't bringing you shit. Use that twenty dollars I gave you earlier. "

"But my car is broke down."

"Order some." I said hanging up and blocked her number for the night. She wasn't trying to do nothing but get new over there to fuck her.

London

I woke up to the sun shining in my face. I need darker curtains asap.

I was going shopping for the house any way. I may as well go ahead and go now.

I got up and made my way to the bathroom so that I can get my hygiene routine put if the way. After doing those things and getting dressed I grabbed my phone and keys heading out to my Jeep.

Making it to Home Depot I parked my car and went in looking for the things I need for my house. I got a basket and went to the aisle where the air freshener was grabbing the ones that I liked at the bottom when I saw my favorite vanilla kind at the top. Trying to reach and get it I nearly fell but a long pair of arms slipped around my waist catching me.

"Need some help baybeh guh?" I deep voice asked with a thick accent.

"Uhh- yeah. Can you pass me that one please. " I said lowly.

"I gotcha." He said. I noticed he had on a uniform so apparently he works here.

"You live around her?" He asked restocking the shelves as I smelled candles.

"Um. Yes. Around the corner. You?"

"Yeah. I stay on Flex street around the corner."

"Oh really. I stay really close to there."

"Is dat right?"

"Mhm." I said choosing the vanilla embrace candle. "Can you show me where you guys keep the curtains? "

"This way love." He said motioning first me to follow him. I followed him to the aisle where all the living room items were and spotted the curtains.

"Thank you."

"No problem." He said going back to stock the shelves. I picked the curtains and anything else I would need. After checking out and putting the basket back I was on my way out the door when I was stopped.

"Aye luh baybeh." He called.

"May I help you?" I asked nervously. He was so gorgeous. He was tall and had very smooth skin. And his many tattoos were very noticable.

"Ya heard me?" He asked snapping his fingers in my face.

"Uhh. What? " I asked coming back to my senses.

"Can I take ya ta' have some coffee in the the morning?"

"Uhm." I cleared my throat. "Uh sure. I guess so. " I said as he handed me his phone.

"What's ya name. " He asked as I typed my number.

"London. You? " I asked handing his phone back.

"August."
