Exotic

I stood in front of Ja with my arms folded muggin' the hell out of him. He was leaning on the front of his car just staring at me. He looked kinda pitiful but at the moment I couldn't even fall into that. He had on some red and white basketball shorts with a white v-neck t-shirt and of course he had on his red and white 11's. He had on his red and white bulls snapback with his dreads all down. I had to admit he looked good as hell but I was too damn mad to even focus on how good he looked. The only thing I could think about was how stupid and wrong he was for coming at me sideways.

"Ja I asked yo ass a question. What the hell you want?" I said making sure I had a lot of attitude.

He sighed. "Exotic can we go somewhere and talk?"

"Why? So you can say that you are sorry or that you were wrong."

"Exotic please. I just wanna talk."

"Nah I pass. I don't wanna hear your weak ass apology or better yet your weak ass sorry." I said turning on my heels walking back towards my door.

Before I could get all the way there he grabbed my arm and I looked at him like why the hell you touchin' me? I jerked my arm free and just stared his ass down. I was trying to contemplate on if I should go with him and talk.

"Fine Ja we can go talk. Let me grab my phone and keys."

He nodded and I walked inside. Sharee, Andie, and Issa were looking at me but didn't dare say anything. I grabbed my shit and turned to them before walking out the door.

"Y'all don't fuck my house up and y'all bet not have sex in my damn house cause I will beat ya ass." I said smiling and walking out the door.

When I got back outside Ja was leaning against the passenger side door waiting for me. He opened the door and ushered me inside. He walked around and got in. He started the car and backed out onto the road. I found his cd case and started going through it. I pulled out August Alsina's latest album and put in the cd player. The whole time Ja was focused on the road. I hit seek until I got to "Kissing on my Tattoos. All was heard in the car was:

Kissin' on me

Kissin' on me

Kissin' on me

Kissin' on me

Baby I don't blame you
For being in the club
Getting all that love
Cause your so beautiful
God made you to show that off
Now I ain't ever been the jealous type of guy
But i want you to myself, I can't lie
I know we ain't on no one on one thing
But baby, It should change
Cause when I be out with other chicks I be thinking bout you
And when you be out on dates you be texting me too
Telling me to come pick you up when he drop you off
I pray to God he ain't breaking you off

I don't want nobody but you
Kissin on my tattoos
I don't want nobody but me
Talkin to you
Until you fall asleep
We better stop playing (We better stop playing)
Before we mess around and someone gets hurt
I don't want nobody but you (nobody but you)
Kissin on my tattoos

I looked over at Ja and his hand had beome tight on the steering wheel and I wondered why but I didn't even bother to ask. The car ride was filled with silence and listening to the song actually made me think about the way Ja and I were. The song actually fit us perfectly if you took time to think about. I was so engrossed in the song that I didn't realize that we had come to a stop. When I looked around I noticed we were at a spot where you could overlook the city. Ja shut the engine off and got out coming around to open my door. When he opened the door he reached for my hand, but I moved it out the way and got out the car without his help.

He just sighed in frustration and shook his head.

I was about to walk around him after he closed the car door put he grabbed me pushing me up against the door. He held me at my waist and just stared at me. I was so trying not to look in his eyes because I knew that I would see the sorrow and regret in them.

"Ja move please!"

"Exotic I won't move until you listen to me and then you forgive me." He said placing his head against my forehead. He was steady trying to make eye contact with me but I would only look down at our feet.

Jacquees

Damn. I really fucked up. I can see the hurt in her eyes whenever she will look at me. I don't know what the hell I was thinking when I flipped out about that nigga. I guess I was a lil jealous because I felt like she was gone forget about me. Now looking at her I know I gotta make this shit right somehow.

"Exotic, I am so sorry. I know sorry may not be enough but I will do whateva' I gotta do to make this right. Your friendship means so much to me." He said lifting my chin to make me look at him.

"Ja why the hell did you even come off and disrespect me like that? You know damn well I didn't deserve that shit!" I said pushing him off me.

"Exotic I guess...I guess I was just jealous and I felt like I was gone lose you to that nigga. I have never met a woman like you and the friendship that we have is something that I always wanted with a female, but I have never really had that."

"So you thought that by calling me a ho would make things better?"

"No Exotic!" Dammit I was fuckin' angry!"

"Well guess what Ja, I'm fuckin' angry and not only that I am hurt!"

I couldn't even say nothing when she said that because I knew that I had crossed the line of no return. I can see that this shit is not gone be easy, but Exotic's friendship means too much for me not to fight for it. I walked up to her and grabbed her hands.

"Exotic I am so sorry. Please let me make it up to you." He said pleadingly while interlocking our hands together.

I was silent for a few seconds and then I looked at him.

"Ja if you fuck up again I promise I will seriously fuck you up. You lost yo damn mind one time but if you lose the muthafucka' again I'm gone help you find the bitch."

"Exotic I promise I want fuck up, well at least not intentionally anyway. He said hugging me tightly.

"Oh and another thing Ja, Imma end up beatin' Giselle's ass if she don't stay in her fuckin' place. She be on that bullshit and I ain't with it. And one more thing I hope you gone be cool because I still plan on talking to Marcell."

I slowly pulled back from the hug and just looked at Exotic like she had grown two heads or something. I know I can't be mad but I just don't like the shit. I guess I gotta respect that though.

"Aight I will respect that. Honestly I can't say nothing because I got my situation."

"So you really cool with it? I mean not to sound mean but even if you wasn't I was still gone talk to him anyway."

I clenched my jaw tightly to keep from saying anything, but I wanted to so bad. I want Exotic but I know I can't give her the committed relationship that she deserves, but at the same time I don't want no other nigga all on her either.

"Exotic I said it's cool."

I nodded and stood in front of the car. I ran my hands through my hair looking out over the city. I turned and looked at Ja as he still stood in the same place.

"Ja why you over there? I don't bite." I said laughingly.

Before I walked over to Exotic I had to get my mind right because right now I was kinda fucked up still. When I walked to where she was instead of standing beside her

 I stood in front of her. I could see the questions in her eyes. Before I thought better of what I was about to do I walked up on her and kissed her.

"Mmm....Ja....what th-"

I cut her off by sliding my tongue in her mouth. Surprisingly she didn't push me away. I leaned her more onto the hood of the car and ran my hands all through her hair. She reached up wrapping her arms around my neck while tangling her hands in my dreads. The kiss was so intense I was ready to fuck Exotic on the hood of my Camaro. The kiss was going and going until my phone rung. That was like dumping a bucket of cold water on the both of us.

I stepped back and Exotic looked at me wide eyed. She then let her eyes travel to the bulge in my shorts. I looked at her and bit my lip. She started walking backwards to the passenger side damn near about to fall. I grabbed my phone and seen that it was Issa. I looked at her as she got in the car. We just stared at one another until my phone rung again.

I sat in Ja's car looking at him in a state of shock. Was that even supposed to happen? Why did it even happen? Damn What the hell just happened?.....
