Black is the Color of Beauty

Chapter 2

NiNi's POV

Outside Club Unwanted

July 13, 2018

Shanghai, China 

       " Hey, could I talk to you over here for a moment?" I turn around to see my knight and shining armor speaking to me. Fuck, is he actually talking to me. " NiNi, close your mouth and talk to him." Day say lowly while nudging my side. " Sure." I mumble out and follow behind him. He talks a couple long strides, before looking over his shoulder then stopping. Why did he look over his shoulder before stopping? As if reading my mind he states, " I wanted to make sure we were out of earshot. Lei can be a bit nosy at times." he let's out a throaty laugh. God, why is his laugh sounds like sex on legs. " Ohhhhh okay, well is there a reason why you wanted to speak to me?" Not that I mind talking to you, I think to myself. " Yeah, my bad my name is Bo. I just wanted to check in on you to make sure you were okay after everything?" he questions. To be honest, I am shaken up. But, pictures appear in my head of him choking that guy out appears in my head. I chew on my bottom lip as I think of how I should answer his question. Should I lie or be honest? Maybe a little of both. " I'm a little shaken up, but I'm unharmed. Its not that this is the first time something like this has happen." Shit, I bite down on my tongue as I slip out the last part of the sentence. WAY TO FUCKING GO NINI, you just let him know that after seeing what he could do to someone else without even fucking trying. I suddenly take an interest in my shoes. I feel a warm, calloused hand lift my chin up and I finally get to see the face of my knight properly for the first time tonight under the bright street lights.

     Bo is fucking mouth watering. The first thing I notice is his small, slanted eyes filled with inky black orbs that are surround by beautiful yet simple monolids. I greedily search over the rest of his straight yet narrow nose, high cheekbones and plump ish cherry stained red lips. "Are you okay?" Bo tilts my head up a bit more. I quickly nod. It wasn't until then that I realize how much I was looking up at this fine ass specimen. He has to easily be roughly 6'1". "I just watched you getting handled by two men, NiNi right now I need you to use words." Bo states in a hard tone. His words feels like someone just thrown some cold ass water on me. Does, Bo think I'm weak because he helped me? The thought of being viewed as weak repulses me. I jerk my face from out of his hands. "I'm good. Thanks for your help though." I reply coldly. Bo smirks at me and something in me snapped. " What the fuck...." " I just think its funny that you went from appreciative to cold in the matter of second. The fuck is your problem?" He cuts me off. What the fuck did he just say to me. Did he really just cuss at me? Let me just handle his ass right quick. " I can see the wheels in your head turning, that's cool and all. But before you jump down my throat if I was to act how you just did... wouldn't you want to know why?" Bo takes a step closer to me. Normally, I would go back and forth with someone, but I was just drained. " Look, we was both in the wrong. My bad from acting coldly. I appreciate you helping me out." There, I admitted to needing his help in that moment. " You're welcome......" " Come on NiNi, Ty is ready to go." Day holler at me. "Okay, I'm coming." I begin to start walking over towards the car. Before, getting a chance to open the cab door I feel an a tap on my shoulder. " .... follow me on Instagram..." Bo rushes out. " Huh." " Follow me on Instagram, it would put my mind at ease if I know you're safe the rest of your stay in Shanghai." Why does it matter to you if I'm okay? But, I decided to keep my snarky remark to myself. We briefly exchange phones to put in each other's Instagram's info. I wave goodbye to Bo and climb into the taxi. That night I fell asleep and dreamt of a beautiful black rose.
