The Bourgeois Effect

Chapter 7: Mall Madness

It was about 3 AM when Larry and I strolled back into my house. Savia and Laurent was sitting on my couch like two worried parents.
"Where were you two we've been calling all night?" Lau asked
"Sheesh we we're on a date." Larry said.
"And you couldn't pick up the phone why? Savia said.
"Well mother dearest because I didn't hear it and secondly cause I'm a grown ass woman."
Larry and I giggled. Lau, Larry and Savia are all the same age and they are all only a year older than me. Yet they act like our parents.
"So how was your date?" Lau and Savia inquired.
"It was amazing we took pictures and everything you wanna see?"
"Maybe in the morning I'm sleepy." Savia said while yawning.
"Okay." I said.
Larry and I went to my room. We laid in my bed and watched a movie. I love Disney movies.
"We watched Despicable me.
I love the minions.
After the movie we just laid there and talked. Larry told me how one day he wanted to sing. I asked him to sing for me. His voice was like an angel.
"You have a beautiful voice." I said yawning curling up to him
"Thank you."
He put his arms around me and pulled me in for a kiss. It was a long passionate kiss. I started to undress myself but Larry stopped me.
"What's wrong don't you want to?" I asked.
"You're not ready for this Chyna."
"Yes I am."
"No you're just caught up in the moment I don't want you to rush into things I can wait."
I hated to admit it but he was right.
I wasn't ready though my hormones were running wilder than race horses at the track. I'm really glad he respects me enough not to take advantage of me though.
I laid my head on his chest and sighed.
"Don't worry Chyna we will one day. It's going to be special."
He ran his fingers through my hair as I listened to his heartbeat. I dozed off  into a deep sleep.

The following day I was doing a photo shoot for the opening of my new club Sinful. I took some pictures with Larry and Lau in some of them I had to stand on a step stool. In like two of them they had to pick me up.
They really towered over me. I appreciated them so much for helping me promote my club.
"This place is beautiful, Chyna." Lau said.
"Thank you I designed it myself."
"You kind of brilliant for designing stuff?"
"It's my passion."
I have been designing for as long as I could remember. I loved to make things. Whether it be clothes, shoes or furniture.
"It's going to be so lit in here tonight." Savia said.
"Yeah I was just looking at Instagram a whole barrage of women are coming." I said.
"They can come but you got my heart so no worry." Larry said.
"I wasn't." I smiled
We left the club and was heading to the mall. I have a shoe addiction so I wanted more shoes. I have four closets full of shoes. I think I may need help.
"I wonder if they have these in a size 4." I said.
Larry laughed he took his shoe and held it against mines.
"You have baby feet cherie." He laughed.
"Shut up." I said playfully punching him in the arm.
We continued to browse through the shoes. I wind up getting five pairs of shoes. I was disappointed in myself. I said I was going to kick this habit. Next we walked by a candy shop my other addiction. I bought $20.00 worth of candy. Larry shook his head and laughed.
"You eat too much candy."
"Don't judge me."
"Not judging just saying. Maybe that's why your kisses are so sweet" he said pecking my lips.
We left the candy store and continued to walk around the mall. Larry bought some shoes and beanies. We walked into the Disney store and I lost my mind. I love Disney, especially Stitch I loved me some stitch I bought more stuff than I could carry. So Larry wound up carrying half my stuff. We took everything and put it in the trunk of my car.
"You want to eat?" Larry asked.
"Not really I'm not all that hungry but I do want some ice cream."
"Okay."
We went to Baskin Robbins and grabbed some cones. We sat outside as we ate enjoying our surrounding.
I was enjoying shopping with Larry. But all good things must come to an end.
Larry and I were walking back to my car hand in hand. We were so lost in our conversation til we didn't see this deranged woman coming until the last minute. She walked up to Larry and slapped the hell out of him. It was the bitch from the club.
Oh no this bitch didnt.
"Oh not today bitch." I yelled as I launched forward. Larry grabbed me in mid air and put me behind him.
I was livid.
"No Larry let me beat that bitch ass who the fuck man do she think she hitting." I screamed.
Lau and Via came running towards us. Larry picked me up and handed me to Laurent. Laurent held me in a bear hug while Savia stood in front of me.
"What the fuck is wrong with you bruh." Larry yelled.
"So now you with this bitch Larry what does she have that I don't."
"Well mymy heart for starters, class, self respect, should I go on."
"Fuck you Larry."
"No fuck you next time I'ma let her beat your ass. Now go on man leave me alone."
Larry walked back towards me to make sure I was okay. I was fine but if that bitch ever and I mean ever blink too hard in his direction I'm going to rearrange her face.
"Damn girl you're a savage." Larry said.
" Nobody puts their hands on my honey bear."
"You got way too much to lose to be out here fighting together with a nobody."
"But-"
"But nothing bebe. You non messy like her non stoop to her level."
"Okay Daddy, I'm sorry." I said kissing him.
I took a deep breath and calmed down. It was over for now but I don't see her backing down anytime soon.
We head back to my house to get ready for the opening of Sinful. I rarely have people over so I do certain things without realizing it. I jumped in the shower and washed my body I put on lotion deodorant and brushed my teeth. I wrapped the towel around my body and walked into my room. I forgot for a second that Larry was there.
"You trying to seduce me."
"Is it working?" I asked.
"Yes." He said. " But I can wait."
Larry really surprised me. He's willing to wait for me that's so special and frustrating.
