Chapter 15 Family BBQ

KATHERINE

"Kitten, wake up" I heard LaMelo whisper shaking me lightly. I groaned reaching over grabbing a hand full of his shirt pulling him down onto the bed cuddling back into him. He chuckled running his hands over my stupidly messy hair kissing the top of my head.

"Kitten, come on wake up" He whispered shaking me again making me groan. I moved on top of him. I was pretty much straddling him but using his chest as my pillow, I didn't want him to go where ever he was trying to announce he was going. I just wanted him right here in bed with me. He smacked my butt hard making me hiss out in pain. I force my eyes open, sitting up rubbing my them.

"You're mean" I complained making him laugh.

"I have to go to the office" He said grabbing my thighs rolling us over so he hovered between my legs smiling down at me.

"No, you just left for two days to work. I get you today" I said pouting my lip touching his face. He smiled leaning down kissing my pouted lips. He smirked pulling away biting my lower lip making me moan.

"I promise you will get me today. I'll be gone two hours top, by the time you get out of bed, shower, and get ready I should be walking through the door" He told me trying to convince me but two hours would turn into all day with him and I didn't want him gone.

"LaMelo" I complained but he just chuckled.

"I have to go take care of this. I have to start talks with another powerful gangs and then I have to take care of my dad and the bullshit he said to you" He told me but I shook my head no touching his face.

"The talks can wait until tomorrow and I'm not worried about what your dad said and neither should you. I wasn't even going to tell you, we just know I can't be alone with him. Plus you're mom having that cookout and it's a welcome home party for you, you can talk to him there" I told him seriously. Yesterday when I went to the gym with Lonzo he passed along the invitation to us. I can't let LaMelo not go, it's his family. His mom would be devastated if he didn't go, I know LaMelo would never want to disappoint his mom like that.

"Kitten, I can't just let that go. He threatened you and no one will disrespect you like that. Disrespecting you is disrespecting me on a whole other level. Then these calls can't wait, I have to move fast in New York" He told me leaning down kissing my shoulder, my jaw and then my lips.

"Your lips are still swollen from our make out session last night" He laughed touching them but I just shrugged.

"Big lips are in right now" I teased running my hands up his arms.

"Just go and have your talks do what you got to do for New York. Then come home and you can talk to your dad at the cookout" I suggested but he just chuckled shaking his head moving to lay next to me.

"We're not going to that" He said shaking his head no. I looked at him shocked rolling over onto my stomach slinging my hair over my shoulder.

"Why not?" I asked him confused as he put his hands behind his head.

"Because I don't want to sit there with the man that constantly is disrespecting me because he's washed" He scuffed, I messed with his chains and then slid my hand down his chest knowing how to get him to that party.

"Man, it was a pool party too. I had the perfect bikini picked out" I said making my tone sad.

"We can get in the pool here" He shrugged trying to make me feel better.
