Page 23 of Shooting his Shot

"It is always like that, but you can trust me. I'll never do anything to hurt you. You have to trust me enough to know that I'll always be faithful to you and you only. I am big on trust, and we won't make it in this relationship if you don't trust me."

There was silence, but I had to get that off my chest. My parents were examples of not having trust in their relationship. I refused to go through what my father went through with my mother. My woman had to trust me, or we wouldn't work.

"I do trust you. It's the women I don't trust. They saw you were with me and didn't care that I was there," she muttered.

"I knew you were there, though. That mattered most as long as I knew. Right?"

She nodded.

"Okay, then. Don't worry about them. Only focus on me."

We didn't say anything on the ride back to my house. I had a game tonight and needed to get to the stadium early. I was tired as hell and needed a whole day of sleep. It had been a while since I was able to sleep the whole day. If I didn't do it soon, I was going to crash.

As the waterbeat down on my body, I dreamingly sighed. It felt like I was living a dream. I was in love with a basketball player, one of the greatest in the league. He was my man, and I was happy to be with him. My thoughts were cut off by the shower stall opening, and he stepped in behind me. His erection was thick and long. He didn't say anything, and neither did I before he picked me up in his arms and laid a big kiss on my lips. My back met the wall of the shower as I felt his thickness, opening the folds of my pussy. He moved in and out of me at a fast pace. Gosh, it felt good as hell. What a way to start my morning. I bit down on my bottom lip as I moved up and down on his thick pole.

"Akari. Akari," I moaned his name, only fueling the fire that burned between us.

He lowered his head and took a nipple in his mouth, causing me to cry out his name. I shook violently against him as I came too damn quickly. He wasted no time, pulling out of me and turning me around. I placed my hands on the wall and looked back at him. He had his bottom lip pulled between his teeth. From behind, he plugged into me and showed no mercy. I screamed his name and banged my fist against the tile of the wall.

"Damn it. Damn," he groaned, slapping my ass.

I moaned and pushed back against him. It felt so damn amazing. He grasped my breasts in his large hands and squeezed them, fondling my nipples. I gasped, getting ready to come again.

"Yeah, you feel it too. Cum for me again," he growled.

He didn't have to tell me twice. I was so close as I knew he was. He loudly groaned as I moaned. We moved as one, giving in to the orgasm that rocked throughout our bodies, setting off explosions that had us shouting each other names.

He placed a kiss in the middle of my back. "Damn, that was good. Now, it's about to be a great day. I needed that baby. Thank you."

"Always," I panted. "You know you don't need to thank me. I aim to please."

He chuckled and reached for the body wash we had in the shower stall. After we washed our bodies, we headed out of the shower.

He had a game tonight, and we had to prepare for it. It was about to be a long day for us, but I was ready for it.

The game had yetto start, so I went to use the bathroom. I had to hurry up and get back out of there. Since my seat had already been paid for, I had nothing to worry about. Nobody would be taking my seat.

"Do you see him? Girl, that man is so fine. I would climb him like he was a tree. I'd do him any time he say my name. His voice is so damn deep, too," I heard a woman gush.

It had me wondering who she was talking about. If it was my man, how in the hell was I going to be quiet about it? I was getting tired of letting these bitches get away with talking about my man in that manner. It ground my gears.

"Girl, yes. I would love to have his babies, too. Akari is a star, and I would be happy to trap..."

Oh, hell no, I refuse to listen to anything else they had to say. Then, this woman was talking about trapping him. I was fuming with anger. I wanted to smash my fist into her jaw.

Before I could have said anything, the door opened, and Aisha stepped in.

"Girl, I was looking all over for you. The game has started, and Kari has been looking for you," she stated. Her face showed concern as she eyed me and then looked at the women in the bathroom with me.

"Okay, I'm coming out now." I tried not to show how irritated I was. It was hard to brush off what these women were saying about my man, no matter how hard I tried.

Could I get used to other women wanting my man?

When Aisha and I ambled out of the bathroom, she whispered in my ear. "Don't let what they are saying get to you.Every woman wants my brother, but he wants you. Don't let them ruin what y'all have."

That was easy for her to say when she was on the outside looking in. But I was going to try not to let what the women said get to me. I wasn't going to bring it up to Kari because I knew how he felt about me not trusting him. I trusted my man. It was the women I didn't trust. Not at all.

Akari's teamwon the game like I knew they would, and they were going to the playoffs. I was very happy for my man and knew he could do it. When he came up to me after the game and laid a kiss on my lips, it took me by surprise, but I welcomed it. Now the whole world knew I was his girlfriend. I didn't know how that was going to turn out in the papers tomorrow, but I wasn't ready to be on the news yet.
