I answered the door for E and he stood in the doorway, looking me up and down. He stepped in through the door and towered over me while his large hands palmed my backside. He lowered his head and nuzzled his face into my neck while his free hand squeezed around me, "beautiful, brown ass. You smell good as shit." He tilted my head upwards with his face and placed kisses all over my neck, "who I gotta be to take this version of you out?"
I wrapped my arms around his neck before peppering kisses on his cheek, "Morris Chestnut." Pulling his head back, he laughed and we stood there holding onto one another. It was only for a moment but that was all we needed, it doesn't take much for our presence to connect. That's what scares me. He pecked my lips a few times and stared down at me, "you ready?" I nodded, "yes. Let me grab my purse."
I grabbed my purse, locked up the apartment, and we walked hand in hand to his car. I looked over at him, "did your brother make it back safely?"
He nodded, "he got there about an hour ago." He reached for the car handle and stepped aside to let me enter. "Thank you," I smiled as I slid in the passenger seat. He walked around the car and climbed into the driver seat. He started the car and backed out of the parking spot.
"What was your day looking like yesterday?" He asked as he reclined in the drivers seat and steered with one hand. "I didn't do too much. I went over to my parents house for dinner and kept my niece for the night."
"Yeah? What's her name?"
"Layla, but we call her Nuna. Nuna and Nina," I chuckled at their name resemblance. E smiled, "I just dropped her off not too long ago. I bought her some Bratz dolls two weeks ago and she swore up and down they both needed cars," E shook his head. "We had to go to three different stores to find them."
I laughed, "someone has you wrapped around their little finger."
"She gets me for all that I have most of the time," he smiled.
Rihanna's 'Loveeee Song' began playing and I reached forward and turned the volume up, "this is my song!" I began to sing, "you can give me what I want baby," I reached over and tilted his chin, causing him to smile as he drove, "come hold me tight and when I'm drowning, save me, give it to me on the daily. If I'm your girl, say my name, boy, let me know I'm in control." We both burst out laughing.

We pulled into a well known spot called, PEACE. I hadn't been before, but I heard their food is good and the atmosphere is nice. E opened my door and took my hand in his as we made our way inside of the dimly lit ambiance. A live R&B band was on stage, performing their own rendition of Blackstreet's 'Don't Leave Me', while couples were on the dance floor, entangled in one another. Eyeing the couples, I smiled as E led us to a small booth in the corner. He dropped my hand and stepped aside to let me enter the booth, before scooting in beside me.
