“This is beautiful. I have seen this place a million times but never realized how gorgeous it was.” My lady took in the scenery while we walked into our room. I scanned the key and pushed the door open for her to walk inside.
Her hands covered her mouth when she noticed the royal blue rose petals on the floor. She glanced back in my direction with tears in her eyes.
“Stop all of that crying and keep walking,” I teased her.
I usually wasn’t the recording type, but I knew she would want to capture the moment, so I retrieved my phone and pressed record. There was music playing from the Bluetooth speaker that the staff helped me set up. It cost me extra, but it was worth every penny.
“Baby, what is this for?”
“Keep going, and you’ll find out.” I shook my head at how excited and impatient she was. The decorator I hired did her thing on the setup. Once we stepped into the room, there were more roses in the shape of hearts on the floor as well as on the bed. There was a set of blue balloons by the headboard that read, “Will you be my lady?” I hated the term girlfriend, so that was as good as it would get because I was sure she would have givenme the side-eye had it said, “Will you be my bitch?” I didn’t use those terms when speaking about her anyway.
“Aww, Essex. This is so sweet! Look at you being all extra. I never took you for the romantic type.”
“You deserve extra. You gon’ be my first and last, so I wanted to make it special.”
She picked up the bouquet of roses on the bed. They were blue as well, but they were customized.
“Oh my gosh. You got me Stitch roses! And there’s money in here!” Lyric squealed, jumping up and down. I chuckled, lifting her up in my arms. I ended the recording so I could focus my attention where it needed to be.
“You are so sweet. I wasn’t expecting all of this.”
“I told you when it was time for me to lock you down, I wasn’t gonna play around. I’ve never done this for anyone, but I can’t think of another woman on this Earth more deserving than you. We’ve been a family for a long time, but I’m ready to make things official. You rocking with a nigga?”
Lyric cupped my face with her hands, pressing her forehead against mine.
“Of course I am. It’s about time you stopped playing and got your mind right. I was so close to leaving your ass alone and finding my baby a step-pappy.” She grinned, then leaned down to kiss my lips.
“Get out of here.” I placed her back on the ground because it was important for me to make sure she understood exactly what my expectations were.
“I needed to make sure you were ready because I’m not with the games. Ain’t gon’ be any breakup to make up shit. If we’re gonna do this thing, then we’re gonna do whatever it takes to make it work. Our family means everything to me, but I’m wise enough to know things won’t always be perfect. You’re gonna make mistakes, and so will I. All I ask is that you communicateyour feelings with me. I’m not a mind reader, and I can’t address any issues if you don’t tell me about them.”
“What about your bitches? Did you put them on notice yet? I don’t plan to be arguing with hoes over my man. If this is my dick, then I should be the only one sitting or nutting on it.”
My dick twitched, but I held my composure.
“I don’t cheat. It’s one of the main reasons I’ve never been in a relationship. Besides, you’ve been the only person riding this mothafucka for a while now. I just never said anything because I knew you would talk shit.”
“I’m happy to hear it. My days of beating bitches up are over. If I catch you cheating on me, I’ll just shoot you and plead insanity.” She shrugged.
“Damn, it’s like that?” I held her close and pecked her lips.
“Straight like that. It’s your fault for fucking me the way you do. The idea of you fucking those bitches and making them scream the same way you do me makes me real homicidal.”
“Well, that’s something you never had to worry about. With them, it’s only been about catching a nut. It’s different with you because I love you. I make love to you and try my best to make sure you get everything you need.”
“Hmm, well. I can think of a few things I need right now.” She purred before crouching down in front of me.
“Damn,” I moaned the moment her lips made contact with my manhood. I would never admit it to her, but no one gave me head the way she did. The shit had me on the brink of insanity sometimes, and I knew I would act a fool if she ever tried to move on with someone else. Sex with her was more than physical. Lola B had a piece of my soul.
“Mmm.”
My head fell back as Lyric took me to the back of the throat and did her little swallowing trick. Little mama had me wishing I had copped the ring I saw at the jewelry store earlier.
“You taste so good, baby. Now stop being stingy and give me that nut,” she commanded as she slapped my dick across her jaw and then sucked on the mushroom head. I almost squealed like a hoe as my nut squirted out prematurely and Lyric licked it all up.
My body shuddered as I came down from the euphoria.
“Yeah, if any nigga even thinks he’s about to get what’s mine, he better make sure his guns are fully loaded and don’t none of those bitches jam.”
