Page 26 of Sweet Love From Saturn

“Just tell me when and we’ll be back.”

Before I could say more, my phone started ringing. My mother’s name flashed across the screen and it was just my luck that it was a video call.

“Hey, Momma. What you doin’ up at this time of night?”

“Hey, son. I was up and thinking about you. I haven’t heard from you in a few days, so I just wanted to hear your voice. Where are you? It looks like you’re in the car.”

“I am. I’m not driving though. I came to Chicago for the day.”

“Oh really? With who? Justin?”

“No. Her name is Saturn,” I explained as I put the camera on my baby.

I wasn’t trying to cross any boundaries, but I wouldn’t lie to my mother about who I was with. Saturn was someone I wanted to build a future with, so there was no need to lie or hide her. There was nothing about her I was ashamed of. Plus, my peoplewould be finding out about her soon anyway. I was planning to have them visit, and of course Saturn would be right by my side. Only if she was comfortable.

“Well, aren’t you beautiful?”

Although it was after ten at night and dark, the streetlights and headlights gave enough light for my mother to see Saturn clearly.

“Thank you, ma’am. Nice to be speaking with you.”

“Oh, you code switching now?” I asked, only loud enough for Saturn to hear.

“Hush.”

“Hopefully we’ll be meeting in the near future,” my mom stated, pulling my attention back to the phone.

“You will, Momma. I’ve been meaning to call you and Pop to set up a weekend for y’all to come visit. Pleasant Springs is having a festival coming up that I think y’all would enjoy.”

“That sounds nice. As long as we see you soon. It’s been long enough. But I’ll call you tomorrow. Enjoy your night and be safe. Make sure you’re being the gentlemen I raised you to be.”

“Of course.”

Right as I ended the call, we pulled up to our destination. There was a line to get in, but it wasn’t long. To pass the time, I made small talk with Saturn until we were being checked at the door. The club we were at was called The Wild Hare. It had a Caribbean vibe and I was told the live bands and drinks were good. It took us a minute to find a table since the place was packed. After getting our drinks, Saturn and I enjoyed the music and even danced to a few songs.

“Thank you for today, baby. I haven’t been to Chicago in forever and now I don’t wanna go home,” she admitted as she kissed my cheek.

Just like I knew she would, Saturn had shown up and shown out with the sexy ass outfit she rocked. She sat next to me ina see-through top with a black bra underneath, black leggings hugging her every curve, and black heels that exposed her pretty feet completed the look. Silver jewelry dangled from her neck and wrist while her curls were styled in a half up half down do. She had on more makeup than earlier and the red lipstick she wore had my dick hardening again. I’d really hit the lottery with this woman and I’d spend every day showing her she was the prize.

“No problem at all, baby. You enjoying yourself was the only thing I cared about.”

Her phone lit up with a call before she could respond. As if I had the right, I leaned in to see who was calling, causing Saturn to laugh.

“What’s so funny?”

“You. Why are you being nosy?” She giggled.

“You’re my business. Someone’s calling my lady this late and I want to know who.”

“It’s Ava. The childhood friend I was telling you about.”

When I got back from Kentucky, most of our conversation was about her brother moving home. She’d mentioned the phone conversation she had with Ava, but I’d been so damn tired I kept dozing off.

“Yeah, I remember. What’s going on?”

Scooting closer to me, Saturn caught me up. Since I only knew Ava based on what Saturn told me, I wasn’t too quick to suggest them being friends again. The fact that she had been so inconsiderate when my baby needed her the most didn’t sit well with me. Since that happened years ago, I decided not to say too much. It was clear Ava had some shit going on, so I’d sit back and see how things played out between them. I would never come between Saturn and her friends, but I’d express my opinion if I felt like any funny shit was going on.

The two of us talked and danced as the night went on. We didn’t make it back to our room until about two in the morning. The night ended with my dick deep inside of Saturn’s tight walls. If this was how life would be with her, then I never wanted this to end.
