Runner

  "Wassup," I asked into the phone. I heard her sniffing.

  "Yo, Nia? You good" I asked. I heard a lot of fumbling around through the phone. What the hell is going on?

  Lauryn came out of the bathroom. She had on her white lingerie set and she looked good as hell. I licked my lips at her as she walked towards me. I held my finger up at her.

  "I n-need a ride h-home" she slurred.

  "Where are you at," I asked her, getting concerned. I heard a lot of loud music blasting in the background, but then it got quiet.

  "What's wrong" Lauryn mouthed to me as I put the phone on speaker.

  "Nia, where are you at," I asked again, getting irritated cause she wouldn't talk. Lauryn kept trying to tell me what to say.

  "Shut up" I mouthed to Lauryn. She hit me. I could see the worry all in her face. She cares about Nia a lot.

  "Club Ciroc. I'm outside" she said. How the hell did she get way over there? That club is nearly in District Heights.

  "Have you been drinking?" I asked. She giggled.

  "Y-Yeah, I've had a few drinks," she said slurring.

  "I'm coming to get you," I said as I quickly grabbed my jacket.

  "Go ahead, I'll be waiting for you to get back," Lauryn said kissing my cheek. I grabbed her face and kissed her lips. I pecked her lips a few more times.

  "GO" she warned as she started unbuttoning my shirt. I chuckled.

  "I got you when I come back. No cap" I said smirking as I headed downstairs. I walked out of the front door and hopped in my Denali truck. I got onto the highway and sped off towards the interstate.

  "Don't hang up," I warned Nia. The club she at is in the trenches. I don't know why she took her ass there when she doesn't even live in District Heights no more. I just don't want anybody taking advantage of her ass and she’s drunk.

  I pulled up at the club and saw Nia sitting on the bench. She had on a fitted short ass dress with heels on. She had her head held down. I got out and walked to her. I looked around to make sure I checked my surroundings. I don't fuck around in District Heights. Dudes be jealous as hell.

  "What are you doing here" she groaned. She had a cup of liquor in her hand, too.

  "You called me," I said.

  "Oh, y-yeah" she slurred as I picked her up.

  "WOO SHIT" she yelled.

  "You're kind of strong," she said, squeezing my muscles giggling.

  "Don't do that," I said to her. She put her hands in my face.

  "NIA" I warned as I sat her in the passenger seat. I got inside and sped off back down the highway.

  "What are you doing there by yourself," I asked.

  "I always get left by myself, CJ. Nobody cares" she said. I looked over at her and she pulled out a blunt. I chuckled at her.

  "What are you laughing at," she asked as she lit it and took a few hits.

  "You," I said as she handed it to me.

  "And that's not true. You got people in your life that care. You got Lo, me, Lauryn, and Maurice" I said.

  "All of y'all are team Lorenzo. Y'all are his family and friends, not mine" she said as she started sniffing. I looked at her and she was sipping on the liquor she had.

  "Man, that's enough," I said as I grabbed the cup and threw it out of the window.

  "I'm not team Lorenzo. I'm team whoever is right" I said to her as she got silent.

  "I was with Will, tonight. He left me at the club, though, because I wouldn't go back to his hotel" she said laughing.

  "I've been thinking he liked me this entire time, but he was only using me," she said.

  "He left you?" I asked. She nodded.

  "Yeah, I rode with him to the club," she said. I could feel myself getting angry. I gripped the stern wheel. I'll make sure I find him and handle his ass. That's really fucked up.

  "Damn. Well, he wasn't for you. You are a sweet girl, Nia. And you ain't deserve that" I said to her trying to cheer her up.

  "I did. All my life I've been getting used and left. Lorenzo even left me. Everyone who comes into my life leaves me. It's like I'm not worth anything to anyone" she said. I don't even know what happened between her and Lo. I just know he did some fucked up shit cause he been fucking with these hoes heavily.

  "Don't say that," I said to her.

  "You mean some to me. I would've not got out of my bed to come get you if you didn't" I said to her. She laughed.

  "I'm just tired, CJ. I loved Lorenzo. And I thought he loved me, too. I know that actions speak louder than words. And his words are saying one thing, but his actions are showing me that he doesn't care. I heard him fucking two females earlier. I called him and he didn't care to see if I was ok. But you did" she said looking at me. I shook my head.

  "You know I wouldn't just leave you high and dry," I said to her as I switched lanes. I handed her the blunt back. I watched as she pulled it.

  "I remember when Violet said that she wished she was with Lorenzo than you" she started to say. I chuckled to myself. I kind of felt that. She was always into him and laughing at him and shit. It was always "Lorenzo did this or Lorenzo did that". I'm glad I'm done with that bitch.

  "Fuck Violet," I said. She laughed.

  "I don't agree with her. Honestly, I wished I would've met you first" she said causing my heart to drop. I looked at her like she was crazy. I know that's just the liquor talking.

  "Really," I asked her.

  "Yeah, you're a good guy, CJ. And Violet was just simple-minded" she said. I chuckled.

  "Thanks, Nia," I said to her as I turned off the interstate.

  "You my dawg, I love you, CJ. You always keep it real with me" she said. I smiled.

  "Yeah, that's what I'm here for. I got you. I love you, too, homie" I said to her as I stopped at a red light. I could feel her staring at me. I looked at her and she had a goofy-ass grin on her face. I rubbed my hands down my face. I was already high as hell and smoking with Nia ain't make it no better.

  "What, Nia," I asked as she sat up in her seat.

  She climbed over towards me and kissed me on my cheek. I chuckled. I think she is really trying me, right now. I looked at her and her dress had slits on the side showing her thick ass thighs. She twisted around in her seat which caused her dress to rise up. Damn, man. I can't, but she is really tempting me. She's Lo's girl.

  She placed her hand on my leg and started to rub her hands up it.

  "What you doing, man," I asked as I continued to ride down the highway. She giggled.

  "Nothing," she said as she climbed over to me and started to kiss on my neck.

  "Nia, chill" I warned as I pushed her back in her seat.

  "You are drunk and you need to stop," I spat at her.

  "I'm not that drunk. What? You don't want me" she asked.

  "No, I don't. You're Lo's girl" I said.

  "Lo doesn't want me. Lo has who he wants" she said. I sighed. She started to unbuckle my pants. I swerved my truck and pushed her away.

  "NIA, don't do anything you're going to regret. You have been drinking a lot man, so chill" I said to her as I swatted her hands away.

  "I'm not drunk, CJ. I want you" she said as she started kissing on my neck.

  "NIA" I yelled as I swerved again and pulled over at this abandoned warehouse. I put the truck in park and she stared at me.

  "What are you doing, man," I asked. She continued to just stare at me blankly.

  "You know Lo would kill me and you. He's my homeboy and even though y'all not together, he still got a soft spot for you. I love my brother, man and I don't want anything to come between us" I said to her honestly. I can see it all in her face that she's hurting.

  "You think fucking me will make you better" I added chuckling. She shrugged.

  "Yeah, it would. I feel shitty as hell, right now. N-Nothing can make me feel worse" she slurred.

  "Well, it won't. You will regret all this tomorrow and I'm trying to save you the guilt. So just quit touching me" I said to
her. I was waiting for her to say something but she only stared at me. She slowly took her arm out of her dress.

  "Nia" I warned.

  "Shhhh," she said.

  "You're really trying to do this," I asked her. She laughed.

  "Y-Yea" she slurred.

  "I ain't about to take advantage of you like this and you are only hurting right now. You hurting cause you feel lonely, but you not, Nia. You only trying to fuck me cause you trying to fill that void. Won't nothing fill that void, babygirl. You have to work on it by yourself" I said to her.

  "Shut up, CJ. Quit being a bitch" she said. I cocked my head at her.

  "Who you calling a bitch? Yo bald-headed ass" I said to her as she bust out laughing. I laughed too. She slowly started to slide her dress down her body exposing her titties.

  "Man, Nia. Come on, now. Don't do this to me" I said as I tried not to look at her titties. She didn't have a bra because she had a spaghetti-strapped dress on. My heart started to race. I can't believe she’s doing this.

  "CJ" she whined as she climbed onto my lap.

  "Just touch them," she said smiling as she placed my hands on her breast.

  "What? Chill out, man" I said pinning her down to the passenger seat. I had my hands wrapped around her neck.

  "What I say, Nia? You are making this very hard for me. Chill the fuck out" I spat at her as I stared down at her. She bit her lips as she started to rub her hands down my stomach. She reached her hand in my sweatpants and grabbed my dick.

  "N-" I started to say.

  "Shhh," she said as I continued to look at her. No lie, she's beautiful as hell. I've always thought she was fine, but Lo just won't do right by her. She stroked my dick and I felt myself getting on rock hard.

  "Enjoy the moment," she said as I got in my seat. I let the seat back and pulled my sweat pants off.

  "Help me," Nia said, making me laugh. I slid her dress off and panties. I started to kiss on her neck as I rubbed my hands down her body.

  "Let's go to my house" she moaned in my ear.

  I let out a deep breath as my heart continued to beat fast as hell. She got back in her seat and I quickly sped off towards her crib. I couldn't keep my eyes off of her the entire way. Maybe she'll fall asleep by the time we get there.

  I pulled up in her yard. I hopped out and I led us inside. She was staggering bad as hell. I locked the door and just looked at her.

  "It doesn't make no sense how fucked up you are right now," I said as she started to strip out of her dress.

  Her dress fell to the floor exposing her naked body. She only had on a thong as she slowly walked up the steps. I stared at her and watched every step she took as she got to the top. God give me strength. I followed her and went inside her room. I slid her panties off as she laid back on the bed. I kissed her softly and trailed kisses all down her body.

  "Mmm CJ" she moaned in my ear. Damn, this some I'll have to take to my grave. I could feel my dick rise. Fuck, man. Lo is going to kill me and so is Lauryn. But I can't stop, right now.

  "Sit on my face," I said, licking my lips as I laid back. She slowly climbed on top of me and I took her pussy in my mouth. I slowly ran my tongue down her pussy as I latched onto her clit.

  "Ooooh, CJ" she moaned as I smacked her ass.

  "AHHH, YESSS. JUST LIKE THAT", she yelled out. I slowly inserted my fingers into and I watched as her body started to tremble

  "CJ" she cried out as she started to scoot away from me. I flipped us so she was on her back.

  "What? You tapping out already" I asked chuckling as I pinned her legs down.

  "I c-can't take no more, CJ" she whined.

  "AHHHH, CJ. I'm about to cum" she moaned out as I licked up all her juices. I continued to devour her ass as she started falling out of the bed.

  "Nah, where are you going," I asked.

  "ST-STOP... PLEASE" she whined as her body started trembling again.

  I continued to eat her. I spread her lips and nibbled slowly on her clit.

  "Oooh, I'm about to cum again," she said. I chuckled.

  "Cum for me," I said as she came all on my tongue. I got up and stared at her. She started to grab my dick.

  "Nah, get back. You ain't ready for that" I said as she closed her eyes yawning.

  "Go to sleep, man," I said as I grabbed my keys and phone.

  "Stay with me, please. I don't want to stay by myself tonight" she said.

  "Nia, I got Lauryn at the crib," I said to her. She gasped and her mouth flew open. Tears filled her eyes.

  "I know you ain't about to cry, man," I asked laughing. She laughed.

  "OH MY GOD, CJ. I'M SO SORRY. I forgot" she said. I could tell she was already starting to regret the shit. I chuckled.

  "We are good. We ain't gotta ever speak about this again, alright" I asked her. She nodded sighing. I laid down next to her. She was still naked.

  "I got you," I said as she laid her head on my shoulder. I rubbed her back and sighed. Within a few minutes, I heard her light snores.

  I can't believe I just gave her head. Man, Lo would kill me and Lauryn would, too. I quickly sent Lauryn a text saying that I had an emergency at the trap. As I said earlier, this is just something I'll have to take to my grave. I don't want to ruin shit for Nia or myself. Damn, man. How did I let this shit happen?

  Chapter 19: Regrets

  Nia's POV

  August 31st

  12:30 pm

  BANG BANG BANG BANG

  "NIA" I heard someone yell. I opened my eyes and groaned.

  "Nia, somebody at the door" I heard CJ's voice say.

  "They'll go away" I mumbled. I quickly jumped up and regretted it.

  My head was banging. What the hell did I get into last night? And what the hell is CJ doing in my bed? I rubbed my eyes and sat up. I looked down at myself and realized I was naked. CJ got out of my bed and walked into my bathroom. He only had on his gym shorts. My eyes followed him as he quickly came back out. No. No. No. I know I didn't sleep with him. How?

  "Wh-What happened," I asked him.

  "N-NO TELL ME WE DIDN'T, CALVIN," I said as I quickly reached for the sheets to cover my body. What did I drink last night?

  "No need to cover yourself. I've already seen everything" he said. My mouth flew open.

  "CJ, WHAT DID WE DO? PLEASE TELL ME WE DIDN'T SLEEP TOGETHER" I said yelling. I started to hyperventilate. All he did was laugh. I don't see shit funny.

  "Man, calm down" he demanded as the banging started again. I looked at him and he grabbed his gun.

  "What are you looking at me for? This ain't my house. This yours, you open the door" he said making me roll my eyes.

  "What are you grabbing a gun for," I asked him. He shrugged.

  "Ain't no telling who you got popping up here," he said.

  "Whatever, CJ. That's crazy to think" I said.

  "The hell it ain't. I'm always strapped, nobody will ever catch me slipping" he said as he walked inside my bathroom and I heard the shower running. I know his ass ain't taking a shower in my bathroom.

  CJ walked back in my room with his body wrapped in one of my towels.

  "Well, damn. Help yourself. Look and see who it is" I said to him.

  "Why? So Lo can be staring right back at me?" he asked, making me mad. He shook his head.

  "Man, you don't know what I went through last night. I'm just traumatized" he said shaking his head, smirking.

  "You didn't go through shit," I said.

  "WHAT? I should've recorded your ass for you to see. You damn near raped me. You stripped in front of me. It was hard as hell to keep my hands to myself. Then, you started rubbing on my dick. You hell, man" he said chuckling.

  I watched him as he powered his phone back on. I just can't believe we had sex. Ain't no way. He's CJ. Lord, what the hell did I do? Oh my God, what about Lauryn and Lorenzo? I walked to my bedroom window and saw Lorenzo's Challenger outside. Aw shit.

  "Who is it," CJ asked.

  "Lorenzo," I said.
<
br />   "FUCK, MAN. This is all your fault" CJ said.

  "What? How? I don't even remember anything. The last thing I remember I was with Will and we had just got to the club. Then I remember being outside on a bench" I said. What the hell happened? I pulled out my phone to see that I called Lorenzo and CJ last night. I saw that I had 25 missed calls from Lorenzo today, 5 from Will, and 1 from Lauryn.
