Appreciating the gesture, Jacintha smiled genuinely and stood as she shook her head. “Nah, I’m gonna head out and enjoy having the house to myself since the girls are gone, but thank you.”
With a nod, Nicole lowered herself and dropped a kiss to Supreme’s lips. In return, he grabbed her ass and pulled her onto his lap.
“Come wit’ us,” Supreme requested.
“No, you go be with your friends. Just bring my wings back and don’t forget I like the parmesan garlic—”
“To be traditional and the Asian zing boneless. I know, bae.”
Skeptically, Nicole’s head tilted as she asked, “And what about my fries?”
“Salt and vinegar seasoning.”
Pleased with his answer, Nicole smiled and gave him a quick, sloppy kiss before hopping off his lap and heading out of the room.
“I’ll walk you out,” Elite offered, handing his brother the blunt.
“It was good to see you, sis.”
“You too, Preme. Thanks for letting me hang.”
“Always,” he said, standing and pulling her in for a side hug.
As Elite and Jacintha walked down the stairs, they both remained silent. It wasn’t until they got outside that Jacintha said, “I can’t believe all y’all really do is smoke and drink and watch sports.”
“We listen to music too,” Elite added teasingly, making her chuckle and roll her eyes.
“Still. I just…” She shrugged and looked away as they made it outside. “I don’t know. Thought y’all were doing more when you came down here.”
“I told you we just be kicking it. We’ll go out from time to time, but it doesn’t take much to please me. All I need is my people and I’m good.”
Nodding, Jacintha remained silent as he opened the door to her white diamond colored Lincoln.
“I really thought another bitch would be here for you. That’s why I pulled up.”
“I don’t know why you think that unless you the one cheating. I ain’t ever cheated on your ass and I never will.”
Jacintha’s head shook as she got in the car. “We’re not having sex, Elite.”
“That’s what this is about?” he asked, leaning against the door and looking down at her. “You want some dick?”
“That’s not the point. I just wonder who you’re getting it from if you’re not getting it from me.”
Elite’s chuckle came out more like a quick bark of laughter before he rolled his tongue across his teeth and bit down on his bottom lip. He stood upright, gripping the door, as if he wanted to close it without even verbally acknowledging what she’d said.
“I’m not a horny ass little boy, Jah. If my wife and I are going through, I know how to maintain self-control. Pussy ain’t that fucking important for me to break my vows to you. You know how much that shit means to me.”
Yeah, she did. Elite stressed the importance of loyalty and faithfulness before he even proposed. Without waiting for her to reply, he slammed the door and headed to his car. If he was mad enough to leave without his brother, she’dreallypissed him off. A part of her was happy about that because she knew she’d be in a pissy mood all night herself.
As she watched her husband speed off, Jacintha chuckled. Opening her text thread with Bianca, she scrolled up until her eyes landed on Henry’s number.Henry. That was the man that saved her a week ago. She hadn’t called him yet, convinced engaging with him would take her back to her almost cheating. That was becoming less and less of her concern. At that moment, all Jacintha wanted was to be sheathed with male energy that didn’t make her feel bad or smothered.
“Fuck it,” she grumbled, dialing the number as she drove off.
It took five rings before Henry was answering with, “Who dis?”
A smile slowly lifted the corners of her mouth. “Hey, it’s Jah.”
“Jah?” A couple of seconds of silence filled the line. “From L.O.V.E.?”
