On The Run

Aaliyah POV

"I don't care if we're on the run baby long as I'm next to you"

As we speed off taking random turns trying to think of a plan to get away from the car tailing us I couldn't help but notice the song playing on the radio and I must admit that due to the circumstance I started to feel kinda like I was B and Black was Jay. My thoughts were interrupted as I heard Black speaking on the phone.

"We got some folks on our tail so meet me by the parking garage on Henry so I can switch cars and you can take shawty to my moms house" Black said into the phone

I was fine with everything Black was saying until he mentioned me going to his moms house. Like for what ? I don't even feel safe being around anyone but him nowadays.

"I'm not going"

"The fuck you mean you not going ?" Black asked as he turned to me making a stank face

"I'm not going to your moms house. I'm staying with you."

"You can't stay with me right now it's too dangerous but I will come by my moms house tonight and stay with you ok."

"Yeah whatever" I said jumping out the car and walking over to the one waiting for me. Black walked up behind me grabbing my arm after placing the box in the trunk.

"You don't have to like this but it is what it is so chill out with the attitude." He said

" Don't grab me like that" I said snatching away from him. He held his hand up as if he was going to slap me causing me to flinch but instead he just rubbed my cheek saying " you better be happy I don't want to mess up that pretty little face of yours. Now get your ass in that car" he then smacked my ass causing me to jump. Then I got into the car.

"That's your new bitch boss" one of his workers asked causing me to get mad.

"Nah watch your mouth she ain't no bitch." He replied before pulling off.

On the way to his mothers house I thought about how he treated me. I was flattered that he thought I was pretty but he still didn't have to talk to me like that.

"You gone get out ?" the worker asked me. I guess I got carried away in my thoughts and didn't realize we were here. I got out walking up to the front door nervously. I knocked two times then some opened the door. It was a beautiful older women around 5"2 with curly brown hair.

"Hey" she said with a smile on her face hugging me. "You must be Aaliyah, Black has told me a lot about you. Don't be shy girl you want mama to fix you something to eat"

"Um yes ma'am that would be nice"

"Alright just come on in and make yourself at home. You can have the room up the stairs and to the right. There are some clothes already in there that you should be able to fit if you need to change but Byron-

"Byron?"

"Haha yes , Blacks real name is Byron but he doesn't really allow anyone but me to call him that"

"Oh ok sorry for cutting you off. What were you saying ?"

"Byron told me he was going to bring you some clothes by the house tonight."

"Oh ok thank you for letting me stay here."

"Oh no it's my pleasure. It's the first time Byron let me meet his girlfriend."

"Oh umm I'm not his girlfriend. "

"It's ok sweetheart. You don't have to lie."

"But I'm not..."

"Well that's not what Byron told me."

"What exactly did he say?"

"That y'all just got together but he has really strong feelings for you."

"Oh wow I didn't know he felt that way."

"Well now you know. "
