“I tasted her, Core… slept on her fucking stomach all night. She not going nowhere now. If she wanna leave, she need to be prepared to wake up to me watching her sleep again.”
“’Cause you were fucking groomed. I know we all had a crush on Angelica’s fine ass, and said we would smash, but we were teenagers, Mav… she was in her thirties. The little ass shorts she would wear, and how she would always pay extra attention to you, that shit wasn’t right. Not when you just lost your parents, your life was shifted, and you were confused.”
She quickly turned around, and he held my face kissing my lips, and grabbing my ass. “Thank you,” I said when we finally broke away from our kiss. “For what?” “The hug. You don’t like hugs, and you hugged me.” “I don’t like hugs, but I like hugging you.” He kissed me on the neck and then turned to leave. “You not giving her ass no groceries. Wonder, the disrespect don’t fly with Caselli’s.” “I’m not a Caselli yet.” He winked. “You wanna be, right? At city hall you said.” I smiled. “Really?”
She went to run out the room, and I pulled her back onto me. I searched her eyes. “I want to make you happy, Stevie. Want you to have everything you’ve always wanted and deserve. I’m not perfect and I know I’m a lot to some people… even crazy to some. Promise me that you’re not going to leave me.”
Whenever I was nervous, anxious or wanted to fuck something up was when my hands got to rubbing together.
“I’m here, Maverick. I can promise you that I’m not go—” “Don’t make promises you intend to break.” She grabbed both sides of my face and kissed my lips. “I don’t intend to break this promise. You have to meet me halfway. Don’t do things that will push me away… okay?” “Yeah.”
