As I walked into the salon, I saw a few boxes of flowers from nail brands on my desk sending their condolences. I packed them in a corner and got settled for a busy day today.
"Hey hun what's up?" I said answering the phone and laying some glitter on a clients nail.
"Nothing much...Ray and I decided last minute that we wanna take a trip you know, get my mind off a few things and just enjoy the moments with each other." She said. I nodded. "Yh that'll be a good idea...well you know me, I'll hold down the fort. When you guys leaving?" I asked.
"I'm a few minutes actually..." she paused.
"Damn that was really last minute for you to tell me now but either way...you enjoy it and be safe" I replied. We said our goodbyes and hung up. "So...I saw you on the shade room getting all close with Erik I see" my client informed me. I was shocked. "Wait...what?!" I asked as she got a hold of her phone looking for the post.

theshaderoom: who's that hottie Erik got all wrapped up in his aroura? Either way they look cute together with their matching outfits. Is this the new Mrs. Jordan?

I sighed. I can't believe this is even happening! "Yh it was just a coincidence we so happened to be rocking the same outfit but trust me...there's nothing going on there...was just enjoying the weekend." I said. She wasn't believing it but that conversation ended. My phone started ringing. It was Erik. "Hey what's up...you never got back to me on that schedule. I really wanna see you" he said. He sounded so irresistible. "I should finish this client in the next hour and I'll be free for an hour and a half" I said. "Ok great...I'll pick you up" he replied and we hung up. After I finished. I got a text from Erik saying that he was outside. As I walked out, he stood there by his car holding a bouquet of white roses. I smiled as I approached him. "Are these for me?" I asked. "They most certainly are" he said handing them to me. He opened the door for me to get in. "So, where are we heading?" I asked taking a wiff of the flowers. "Taking you for lunch at Le Chateau." He said driving off. The ride was awkwardly quiet. I just couldn't help thinking about the picture and the caption on the shade room. "You know we're on the shade room right?" I asked. He nodded. "Yes I saw it...not a big deal though...we ain't together so." I thanked the heavens above that we were on the same page. Now I can enjoy this lunch. It was a beautiful restaurant. We got seated and made our order. "So...um...I'm just going to lay it all out on the table." I said. Michael raised his eyebrow and gave this daring side smile. "Your brother and I...we kinda...you know...-" I was struggling to tell him the truth.
"Yeah I know...y'all kissed," he said folding his arms. His biceps were huge. I was lost for words.
"You knew this entire time...and yet...we're here having lunch in a fancy ass restaurant?" I questions. I was so confused. "Look, my brother and I...we tell each other everything... but he isn't serious the way that I am about you" he said leaning on the table and looking directly my the eyes. How hypnotizing, but I wasn't falling for it.
"Oh you're serious about me huh...but yet you probably get your dick wet everyday with those bitches you got" I said loud enough, standing up. "You know what...have a nice day...thank you for the flowers but I'm totally rejecting it" I said walking off. As I got outside, I felt a tight grip on my arm. "What the fuck!" I exclaimed as he yanked me to his car.
"Let me go Erik! What the fuck is wrong with you!" I tried to get out of his strong grip.
"Girl you better shut the hell up and get in the dam car," he said as he opened the door.
"Wait...what? Negro...I am not going nowhere with-" he literally shoved me in the car. I tried to open it but it was locked. I sighed. He got in the driver seat. "You cannot be serious Erik...let me out...I am not going anywhere-" I was saying before he pressed his hand on my mouth.
"Don't you EVER embarrass me like that again...you heard me?!" He said with a dangerous look in his eyes. I was startled but I nodded. As we drove off, I was too afraid to even speak. He dropped me back at the salon. "Look I'm sorry ok...I didn't mean to grab you like that" he sighed. "I'm really sorry Jill...would you find it in your heart to forgive me...please." Why is he begging? As much as this was a red flag, my heart gave in. He was easy on the eyes so it's hard to be mad at someone like that. I accepted his apology. He leaned in slowly. My heart started racing because I knew what he was about to do. His lips were luscious. They felt like I was kissing michael's. So soft and thick. He slid his tongue into my mouth. My hand grazed his head and slid down the back of his neck and he gripped my waist.

My damn phone started ringing. This person better be worth it for me to stop devouring my delicacy.
"Hey! Whats up?" He asked.
"I'm busy at the moment..." I replied.
"Can we meet up? My place or something?" I shrugged and glimpsed at Erik, who was scrolling through his Instagram. I pinched the bridge of my nose and sighed.
"Why?" I asked.
"I don't want to tell you this over the phone..I'll send you the location ok?" He said.
"Ok" I simply replied and hung up.
"Everything ok?" Erik asked putting his phone on the dashboard stand. I nodded. "Just a client wanting to change her schedule," I lied. He pecked my lips and got out the car to open the door for me. He held out a helping hand so that I could get out in ease. "I'll call you later ok?" He said pulling me into him. I smiled and took in the features of his face. "What?" He asked. You're so fucking beautiful...that's what. I bit my lips. "Nothing...gotta get back to work Erik" I said looking back at the salon. The girls were trying to be nosey but at the same time, trying not to make it look obvious. He nodded and hugged me passionately and kissed my neck and smiled revealing those beautiful dimples.
