"Damn it's like that? No one is trying to hit on you and you act like I'm trying to kill you or something" he said. She rolled her eyes allowing him in. "It's nice in here, definitely fits you" he said. "What do you want to talk about? She crossed her arms. He looked over at rich brown skin and her long twists elongating down to her hips. He already beat himself up a million times dropping the ball with her. He could only imagine one last round of love making between them.
