(Derrick & Jordynn's Home in the picture above)
Derrick POV
I put my car in park smoking the last of my blunt with my music playing low singing along to the words.
I know I know I know
I know I Know I knooow
(What you know quan?) You ain't that nigga you say you is
(How you know though?) Just know that I know I know I know
Them streets they fuck with me strong
& them bitches gon' fuck just because money long
When the song was over I got out of the car grabbing the duffle bag making my way to the house.
After emptying the money into the safe i walked down to me and Jordynn's room. I turned the knob and the shit was locked. I knocked loud enough for her to hear but low enough so the kids wouldn't wake up.
"Open the door and quit playing!" I said through gritted teeth. I was mad as fuck and tired I just wanted to go to sleep.
"Kiss my ass Derrick I'm not opening shit!" She yelled back.
"See this is what I'm talking about. I ain't about to keep doing this shit with you playing these childish games Jay. We too old for this. Open this fucking door!"
I heard her sniffles from her trying to keep her crying down. She always do this. She think crying makes me soft. I mean it do sometimes cause I hate seeing her cry but damn I'm trying can she atleast give a nigga credit.
"Baby look I'm sorry. I Know you only fussing cause you care about me but I swear Im going to quit Jay just give me time. For now on I won't go out past 10pm 11 at the latest. I won't answer calls from the guys when Im at home spending time with yall. Just rock with me. We gon take baby steps."
I heard her getting up walking torwards the door "Promise?"
"I promise , now can you please open the door?"
Jordynn POV
I couldn't help but start crying. I just dont get why he doesn't understand where I be coming from. He knows how I feel about the things he does but yet anf still he is making no effort to change.
"Baby look I'm sorry. I Know you only fussing cause you care about me but I swear Im going to quit Jay just give me time. For now on I won't go out past 10pm 11 at the latest. I won't answer calls from the guys when Im at home spending time with yall. Just rock with me. We gon take baby steps."
Part of me believed what he was saying and part of me didn't. I still got up and made my way to the door.
"Promise?" I said turning the lock slowly.
"I promise, now can you open the door?" I turned the knob opening the door to let him in.
I started walking back to the bed. He wrapped his arms around my waist kissing my neck.
"Stop acting like you don't wanna show me no love. I know you missed me. I don't even know why you tried to lock me out. Your lil ass wasn't sleeping by yo damn self"
I didn't respond I just stood there. I really did miss him. I miss him every minute we're not together. I miss him when he goes to the bathroom and comes right back. Maybe if I was like this with Rashad he would still be here today. I should've pestered him more about getting out of the streets and Raina would have her dad today. But then again maybe things happen for a reason.
I pryed his hands from around my waist and got in the bed. I snuggled up underneath the covers and closed my eyes. I couple minutes later the spot next to me sink in. I turned over laying my head on his chest. "I love you Dee"
"I love you too Jay" he wrapped his arms around me and we fell asleep just like that.
