Love in New York [Under Construction].

One Week Later

December 13

"Man, that pregnancy class was boring!" Lyra complained. "I don't know how you do it." I shrugged, and Lyra pulled into the parking lot of Papa John's. Ever since last week, Lyra has been an even more supportive friend, coming to all my pregnancy classes, and even to one doctor's appointment. Lyra got out the car, and went inside to pick up our large, sausage pizza for our little movie night. I got on my phone, and scrolled through Facebook, and other social media sites, checking notifications, mentions etc.

THUMP.

I looked up at the window, thinking a bird had hit it. But instead, there was a light skinned, man with dreads. He smirked at me, his golden grill showing. His eyes were a captivating blue-green color. "You Adam's girl right?" I gulped, trying to ignore him. His clique stared at me from the car, pointing and making bedroom eyes. 

"I know that you can hear me, bitch." 

He hit the window again, harder this time, just to make me jump. When I did, he just chuckled.

"Tell him that Tajo is looking for him."

He went back over to his friend's car, and got in, speeding off, before Lyra came out.

I ate my pizza, not being able to shake the incident out of my mind. There was this weird feeling about him, that I couldn't shake off. 

"Aaliyah!" Adam called, continuously knocking on my door, and constantly interrupting me and Lyra's movie. He knocked on the door again and Lyra groaned and got up. "What?" she snapped, blocking the entrance. Adam tried to move past her. 

"Lyra, what the fuck, just let me talk to her." "She does not want to talk to you." I heard some slight shuffling and before I knew it, Adam was on the floor in front of me. "Aaliyah, don't be mad at me.." "I'm not even angry, I'm just disappointed.." He rested his forehead on mine. "Forgive me?" "I don't know.."

"Please?" He put his hands together. "Please, just give me one more chance. I swear to God, on my mom, that nothing else happened between me and Choochi, nothing at all."

"No more keeping secrets, okay?" "No more." "You promise?" He got in between my legs, moving my hair out my face. "Yes, on my life." I ran my fingers over his thick stubble. My thumb running under his plump lips. "You need to shave." He chuckled, his warm, minty breath on my neck. He smelled like Ax. His hands ran up and down my thighs. "I missed doing this." "It's only been a week though." "I'm just going to go" Lyra laughed, grabbing her purse. "I see you later." "Hey no talking" he muttered, taking my shirt off. His lips roaming down my neck to my collarbones. He sucked on the skin, then kissed it. 

Just then the golden-grilled man, flashed through my mind. "A-Adam." He sighed. "Yeah?" "Do you know a guy named Tajo?" "Why?" "Because, he said he was looking for you.." "He didn't hurt you did he?" I shook my head. "Just scared the hell out of me. Why is he looking for you?" He just shrugged.

"I honestly don't know."
