Naughty by Nature by Brenda Hampton Page B

years we were together. Scorpio is a master at getting what she wants. And, I’ll be damned, she almost got it. If not tonight, she’d damn sure earned herself a fast and furious fuck from me tomorrow.”
    â€œTomorrow? Wha—”
    â€œTomorrow, I’m gon’ give her what she wants. After that, I’m jetting. I’ll write this down in my little black book as one of the biggest mistakes of my life and be done with it.”
    â€œHey, fine. Do whatever you want to do. I am out of this shit and I do not want to know the details,” Shane stated.
    Jaylin was silent and then he looked down at the keys in his pants.
    â€œWhy don’t you stand up, come over here, use your teeth and not your mouth, to get these keys out of my pants. Hold the key steady in your mouth and uncuff me,” he said.
    â€œNegro, please. I ain’t about to put my face anywhere near your dick. Why don’t you stand up, jump up and down, and try to get them to fall. Once they hit the floor, use your teeth to pick them up, and then hold your mouth steady and uncuff me.”
    â€œFirst of all, those keys aren’t going to make it to the floor with this big ass hump in my pants. Secondly, my plan was a whole lot better than yours,” Jaylin countered
    â€œYour plan was shitty. That’s the only thing it was,” Shane claimed.
    â€œThen, I guess we gon’ sit here like this all night then,” Jaylin said.
    â€œThen, I guess so.”
    After hours of sitting, neither one of us budged. Every once in awhile we shot comments back and forth, but the keys remained in Jaylin’s pants. The only thing that saved us was when Felicia came in on Sunday morning, claiming to have left some money in her drawer that needed to be deposited early Monday morning. She looked at us in disbelief.
    â€œI am too embarrassed to ask y’all what happened at this party last night.” She looked at my pants that were still unzipped. “This is ridiculous. And don’t you ever have the audacity to tell me what a faithful friend you have.” She turned to Jaylin. “Like I told him, once a ho, always a ho.”
    â€œFelicia, would you please get the keys from inside of Jaylin’s pants and remove these cuffs,” I asked.
    She rushed to it, but took her time pulling them out. “This is an embarrassment to our company, and I pray like hell those hoochie mamas y’all invited here didn’t have a videotape with them, especially for your sake Jaylin. If Nokea knew what kind of so called husband she’s still got—”
    I got frustrated with Felicia and so did Jaylin. “Just take the fucking cuffs off,” we said in unison.
    â€œHold up!” she yelled while still roaming her hands down inside Jaylin’s pants. “I know y’all ain’t trying to disrespect me! It doesn’t look like the two of you have many options here. Do I get an apology, or do I leave the keys in his pants?”
    â€œSorry,” both of us said in unison again. We’d both been punked by a woman twice in one night and it wasn’t a good feeling.
    Felicia’s hands stop roaming and she looked at Jaylin. “You should be disappointed in yourself for reserving something like that for one woman. There is much power in what you got and whenever you want to get things going again, just let me know.”
    Jaylin had a blank expression on his face and didn’t say one word. It was so obvious how mad he really was.
    Felicia removed the cuffs from my hands first and then from Jaylin. After that, we left. When we got back to my place, he asked if he could use it for the night to entertain Scorpio. All I said was I’d be over at Sam’s place. I warned him about doing something he would surely regret.
