“You know I do,” he acknowledged.

“Okay, well, that’s all that matters. We just have to set up a meeting with Lo and take it from there. He can probably meet up with us sometime today,” Asha said excitedly.

“Damn Asha. Why so soon?” he asked as nervous energy coursed through his body.

“I got you, baby. You don’t have nothing to worry about,” Asha said as she stroked his growing erection and planted soft kisses on his neck. She needed him on board with no doubts or hesitation.

“Shit,” he hissed when Asha’s hand started moving faster.

When she dropped down to her knees, he braced himself for the bomb ass head that she was always known to deliver. Asha slowly licked around the head and moved her tongue up and down his shaft. When he hissed and grabbed the back of her head, she knew she had him right where she wanted him.

“So, can I tell Lo that we’re on board?” Asha asked as she looked up at him.

She didn’t wait for him to answer before she wrapped her full lips around his stiffness and took him to the back of her throat. Her lover’s moans of pleasure excited Asha, putting her in the mood to please herself as well. She inserted two fingers inside of herself and hummed to the same orgasmic rhythm. She bobbed her head faster with an intensity that she didn’t have before. She was a woman on a mission and she was trying to accomplish it. When Asha felt her boo start to tense up, she sucked harder and faster than she did before. Soon after, he was spilling his seeds down her throat and she swallowed every drop.

“Call your people and set up a meeting,” her boo said weakly, spent from busting a huge nut that Asha had just gulped down.

She smiled sweetly and wiped her mouth with the back of her hand. Mission accomplished.

Two hours later, Asha had freshened up the bed clothes at her friend’s house and made sure to clean up after herself. Her boo had left for work and she had already set up a meeting with Lo for the following day. Asha was on the sofa flipping through the television, when she heard keys being inserted into the front door.

“Dang girl, you got it smelling spring time fresh up in here,” Laila said when she walked into her house.

“Bitch, don’t try to play me. You know I always clean up after myself when I have company,” Asha replied.

“Is he still here?” Laila asked.

“I wouldn’t have told you that it was safe for you to come home if he was,” Asha answered.

“How did it go? Is he on board with everything?” Laila asked as she took a seat next to her.

“Duh bitch, I’m Asha. Niggas don’t tell me no. Well, nobody but your dumb ass cousin,” Asha said with a roll of her eyes.

Although she and Cam were first cousins, Laila and Asha were best friends. Asha’s brother, Quincy, and Laila had been messing around off and on for years. They broke up damn near every other month, but Laila loved the ground he walked on. That was mainly the reason why she was okay with her cousin’s girlfriend fucking other niggas in her house. She would do anything to make Quincy happy and that included staying on Asha’s good side. Quincy was crazy about his little sister and Laila knew that.

“Cam is so damn stupid. All he has to do is ask and he can have whatever he wants. I wish my daddy did have money like that. He wouldn’t have to beg me to come around,” Laila replied.

“I thought they were trying to get right with each other when Cam went to the car show with him last weekend. Nigga had me fucking and sucking him all week, thinking he was about to get some coins,” Asha admitted.

“What happened? Lacey told me that they spent the day together, but I didn’t ask her anything else,” Laila said.

“Nothing happened. He said it was a one-time thing, but he still don’t fuck with him like that. Do you know how good we could be living if he stops being so fucking childish?” Asha questioned angrily.

“He’s opening the door for another nigga to walk in. Especially if things go as planned with Lo,” Laila said.

“I don’t want another nigga to walk in, though. I want Cam, but he needs to get back to the Cam that he was before. He’s worrying about jail and shit, like his daddy ain’t the best attorney in Louisiana. He’s forcing my hand and I hate that shit. I can’t have another man taking care of me and still be with Camden like that,” Asha noted.

“Maybe if he sees another man stepping up to the plate, that’ll motivate him to do better,” Laila said.

“Fuck that! He’s gonna find himself broke and alone. Trying to live off that chump change he’s making at the shop. He needs to sell one of those damn cars. It’s not like he drives them.”

“I wish Quincy would pull some bullshit like that. This rent gets paid faithfully on the first of every month,” Laila said as she stood up and stretched.

Laila’s back was turned, so she didn’t see when Asha rolled her eyes. She was dumb as fuck, and Quincy was making a fool of her. Whatever relationship they had existed in Laila’s mind only. Quincy did pay her lil seven hundred dollar rent every month, but he did it for a reason. Laila was too dumb to see shit for what it really was. Quincy had basically turned her house into a trap house, where he stored all his guns, money, and drugs. He came over every night and sold his shit right from the comforts of her home, with a hot meal that she always prepared. He hated that he had to fuck her every once in a while because he had a fiancée and kids at home. Quincy had three sons, and Laila’s dumb ass thought he’d made them during the times that they were broken up. Never mind that all three kids were by the same woman. He was planning a wedding with his children’s mother right under her nose, and she was too dumb to see it.

“We’re meeting up with Lo over here tomorrow night. I might need you to cover for me, just in case Cam asks you anything,” Asha spoke up.

“I got you, sis,” Laila replied as she went into the kitchen to find something to cook. Her man was coming over later and she had to make sure he had a hot meal waiting on him.

“I’ll see you later. I got some change in my pockets, so I’m going to the mall,” Asha said as she grabbed her purse and walked out the front door.

Her boo broke her off with some shopping money before he left. He told her that it was only the beginning of what was to come, and she couldn’t wait.
