This story is the final part from Workplace Lover part 1 & part 2.
It had been a few months since I last hung out with Ron outside of work, things between Alton and I had basically died after our last conversation. We were cordial while we were at work and only spoke outside of work when it was work related. Ron was in the process of getting a new job and that was a bit bittersweet because other than us not hanging out as much now then I wouldn’t have anyone to help me get thru those tough days at work. He would always tell me that nothing would change between us, but I knew it would change because with his new job, I knew that he wouldn’t have as much of free time to hang out.
We were working at a local store on Ron’s last day and I wanted to hurry up and end early because I had set up a lil going away office party for him. Things were going great until Alton decided that he wanted to be petty and fuck up everything he was counting. It was becoming very annoying because I knew he was doing this shit on purpose. After another 20 mins of recounting I finally told him to leave because he was no use to me at that moment. I should have known that would cause a problem between us later, but I would deal with that when it came. Eventually, we got thru the rest of the counts and made our way back to the office for the party. Of course, my workday wasn’t over just yet because I had to close out the store we counted, that caused a problem with Ron. He cussed me out more times than a little bit until I gave in and decided to finish the work when I got home that night.
The party was not all that great at first, everyone was being a bit uptight because we were still on company property. All that went out the window when Doris came in with a few gallons of Daiquiri's, things began to loosen up and then it became a real party. Music was blasting, food was served, and everyone dancing and having a good time while we had the opportunity. While I was talking with some of our coworkers, I felt a tap on my shoulder and when I turned around it was Alton standing there looking at me like he wanted to fight.
“I need to talk to you about something.” He said to me just above a whisper.
“Ok but if you about to start some shit then you can save your breath because I’m not about to deal with this bullshit right now.” I said looking him directly in his eyes. We walked down the shopping center where our office was in, once we were away from the crowd, we stopped, and the silence was starting to annoy me. “So, what you wanna talk about Alton?”
“About this thing between us and how I felt played you sent me home today for no reason at all.”
“Are you serious right now dude, you know exactly why I sent you home, it was because you were purposely fucking shit up because you knew what we were doing today for Ron. Now as far as this thing between us goes……… it should have been clear to you by now but in case it isn’t then let me be clear. The most we can ever be is coworkers, nothing more, nothing less, you have a lot of issues that I’m not willing to deal with from a nigga I’m dating or in a relationship with. Your jealousy is a tad bit scary and I have been down that road before and I can’t afford to do it again.”
“So, you are saying that because I was a little overprotective of you, it was mistaken for jealousy?”
“It’s a major difference between protecting and jealousy, what you were showing me, and your actions was not protecting me at all, it was all jealousy. That’s just the beginning tho because you also have very controlling ways as well and in case you haven’t figured it out, I’m not a puppy or some other form of animal that you say sit or stay and I obey your command Alton.”
“Man, you are tripping for real now with all these lies and shit you spitting out yo mouth, you know good and damn well I’m none of those things.” He said squinting his eyes at me.
“If you say so but you and I can be nothing past coworkers, I would say we can be friends, but we saw where that lead us and now are we done here because I have a party to get to?”
“I guess dude, but I still feel you dead wrong for telling lies about me.”
“Alton, nothing I said was a lie you know it and I do as well.” I said trying to walk away but he stopped me by grabbing my arm. “Alton…... don’t put your hands on me.” I said jerking my arm away from him.
“My bad Jaye but you always walking off from me when I’m trying to get to the bottom of things between us.”
“The thing about that is this……. Yes, what we had was fun but it’s over now because you can’t get a grip on your jealousy and wannabe controlling ways. All that came after I told you about some of the things I went thru. That was the thing that made me conclude that we are not meant to be together and that’s the part you not seeing.”
“How about we start over and go back to the beginning?” He asked touching my arm.
“How about not……... I’m not trying to go there with anyone right now, I have to much going on so thanks but no thanks.” I said and turned around, walked off, and resumed the party that was going on.
About 4 months had passed since the going away party and since I last heard from Alton, I still talked to Ron almost every other day and made plans that we almost never kept. The weekend before my birthday I wanted to go out and do something I didn’t do since I was a little boy and that was fish. I asked Ron to come but he told me he had to work so I just invited a few of my cousins instead. I made it to the spot where we were supposed to be meeting up at, I was a bit surprised that I was the only one that made it early because I was usually the one that was late. I sat in the car for about 10 mins before I saw another car pulling up, when it got near me, I saw that it was my cousin.
“About damn time you showed up; I was starting to think nobody was going to come.” I said to her once we got out our cars.
“Shut up I had a long night……. Don’t ask.”
“I guess but let’s get started so I can collect on that bet.” I said laughing.
“I don’t know why you would want to bet me knowing I’m going to crush yo ass on catching these fish.”
“I hear ya but make sure you have my funds bitch.” I said laughing as we got our stuff set up for the day.
Half the morning went by and we were what and what with the amount of fish we caught. I was reeling in the last fish I caught when I heard another car coming from behind us. I didn’t bother looking back because I knew it was probably the other cousin that was supposed to be here hours ago. I went to put my fish in the cooler and looked back to see the car that pulled in wasn’t my cousin, it was Ron. He walked up to where we were and looked at us like we were crazy.
“I thought you had to work with yo lying ass.” I said throwing a piece of ice at him out the cooler.
“I know you aint just throw that nasty ass ice on me……… and I did have to work but I left early so I could come out to this raggedy ass place.” He said sitting in my chair.
“Well shouldn’t I feel lucky that you actually made time for your friend.” I said rolling my eyes.
“You should bastard, I didn’t have to waste my gas and since we are talking about that, wasn’t it you the one cancelled on me the last few times?”
“You fucking liar.” I said and he burst out laughing.
“I swear if I didn’t know any better……. I would swear yall were an old married couple as much as yall be into it.” My cousin said reeling in another fish.
“Because he is an asshole.” I said throwing my reel back out into the water, once my reel was secure in the water, I attempted to sit down but instead I hit the ground hard. “You are such a bitch bruh.” I said looking at them both laughing.
“That’s what yo ass get for talking shit.” We stayed out for a few more hours before my cousin conceded defeat, paid me the bet and left to go home. I was packing up my things with Ron when he pulled me into a headlock. “What else you want to do today punk?” He asked while I was still in the headlock.
“I might be going to jail if yo dumbass don’t let me go.” I said pinching him in the side. “But I don’t have anything planned but going give these fish to one of my uncles and then go home.”
“Boring ass, let’s go out and get fucked up bruh.” He said.
“Ok but I’m not driving and also you know you have to get permission from your boo first.” I said laughing.
“You do know I’m a grown ass man, right? Plus, we not on good terms right now anyway.” He said shaking his head.
“Being sprung have nothing to do with being grown it just mean you forgot how to be a man, and when are yall on good terms?” I said while getting in my car.
“Nah that’s your territory messing with them lame ass niggas but I’ma be over at 8 so be ready.” He said mushing my head.
“Put yo hands on me again and I’ma tase yo ass bitch.”
We both left from where we were, I went to go get rid of the fish we caught but got held up talking to my uncle as per usual. When I looked at the time it was approaching 5 o’clock and I still haven’t made it home yet. I finally reached my house after about 5:30, I still needed to take a shower and pick out some clothes for tonight. After taking a shower, I wrapped the towel around my waist and walked to my closet to find something to wear. I picked out my clothes and went laid across the bed, I didn’t plan on going to sleep but my body had a different agenda than I did. I was woken up by someone banging on my door like they had lost they damn mind. It didn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out who it was because it was only one person, I know who would do stupid shit like that.
“I swear you act like you aint got the sense God gave a mule.” I said swinging the door open and looking at Ron.
“And I’m sick of yo ass always late for every damn thing and why the hell you don’t have on clothes Jaye?” He said looking at me and shaking his head.
“Because I dozed off after I showered, but it won’t take long for me to get dressed.” I said walking back to my room.
“You say that shit all the time and it still take you over an hour……. Hurry up.” He said throwing a pillow off the couch at me.
“Shut the fuck up, and I told you about coming over here fucking up my house.” I went into the room and begin looking at the outfit I chose to wear. I decided to change it up a little but nothing to major, I grabbed my phone and started playing music to get me in the mood for the night. I put on my playlist and began getting dressed, no sooner than I slid on my underwear, I heard Ron in the living room talking loud ass hell. I paid him no mind because his girlfriend always found a way to make him feel guilty about having fun or doing things without her. I looked down and realized that I was ashy as hell, I grabbed my lotion and began putting it on.
“Did anyone ever tell you that you got a girl booty?” Ron said from behind me.
“If you don’t get the fuck outta my room talking bout nonsense.” I said trying to cover myself up.
“You need to hurry up because I most definitely need a drink now.”
“Go look in the cabinet…… I think I have something in there you can drink……... I know how you get stressed when she grabs you by the balls.” I said laughing.
“You always running yo gums about shit you don’t know what you’re talking about.” He said irritated, I looked back at him and could see the frustration on his face.
“Aww I’m sorry sweetheart you want a hug.” I said holding my arms open, he laughed and shook his head.
“You not about to touch me while you half naked, now get dressed and let’s go.” He said about to walk out my room.
“Don’t hate cause I look better than yo bitch, now get out.” I said pushing him out my room, the next thing I knew, I felt a sharp sting on my right ass cheek where this nigga had slapped it. “You are a fucking bitch, I swear I’ma shoot you in the mouth.” I said rubbing my aching ass.
“I got something for a mouth but it aint no bullet.” He said before walking out my room.
After me getting dressed and taking the shots he fixed us, we got in the car and headed out. We were laughing and talking the entire ride to the bar, I was beginning to feel those drinks he made us that we drank before we left out. His phone kept going off interrupting almost every song that was playing thru his stereo, after about the tenth time, I was starting to get frustrated.
“Either you check it or put the fucker on airplane mode because this shit is annoying the hell out of me.” I said looking at him.
“That aint nobody but Jakayla, I told you we into right now, but I may have downplayed it a little.” He said.
“You wanna talk about it or not?”
“I will tell you later right now I wanna have fun and ignore that dumb shit.” He said as we pulled into the bar parking lot.
“I swear you do that shit all the time, like we haven’t been friends for a damn good while now.”
“Boy if you don’t chill yo overly sensitive ass out with all that……… I’ma talk to you about it but I’ma tell you when I’m ready.” He said laughing. I looked at him, popped him upside the head and got out the car before he could hit me back. Once we made it in the club, the first thing I wanted to do was go to the bar. Ron came to the side of me and nodded towards a group of people. Upon further inspection, it was most of my team from work.
I couldn’t tell you how many drinks I had or where they were coming from but, I was having the most fun I had in years. I looked across the dance floor and saw Ron dancing with some girl, I looked in another direction and saw his girlfriend walking thru the door. I knew this was about to turn out bad, so I broke away from the group and tried to get to Ron before she saw him. When I reached him, I leaned in and whispered in his ear that his girl just walked in.
“I know.” He said winking at me and going back to dancing with the chick. I smirked and went back across the club to the group. I didn’t know what he was planning nor did I care at that point. I went back to dancing with my friends when someone came up behind me and tapped me on the ass. I looked back and it was Jakayla- Ron’s girlfriend.
“Hey baby…… Happy Birthday!!!!!!!” She said hugging me.
“Hey, thank you, I didn’t know you were coming.” I said smiling at her.
“It’s your freaking birthday dude, I wouldn’t have missed this no matter what.” She said looking around the club. Then she started laughing, I followed her eyes as they landed on Ron dancing with that girl. “If he wanted to make me show my ass then he should’ve picked someone who wasn’t his cousin…… dumbass.”
“Girl he a mess and a half but come on I will buy you a drink.” I said walking with her to the bar. We sat down, ordered our drinks, and was laughing and cracking jokes when Ron came up and plucked my ear.
“I told you I was going to get you back……. What up Kay?” He said smirking at her, she looked at him and shook her head.
“I swear you are the dumbest nigga I know, you trying to make me act up by you dancing with some thot……. Maybe you should have pick someone other than your cousin I hang with every other day.”
“Jakayla nobody was trying to make you do nothing and if I wanted to, I could pull any chick in here I wanted so shut that shit up. Overly dramatic ass.” He said laughing and walking off towards the bathroom.
“I swear yall are a mess.” I said laughing and drinking out my glass, she was about to respond when her phone lit up. She looked at it and scoffed.
“I swear I can’t catch a fucking break man; this girl didn’t show up for her shift tonight so guess who have to go in.”
“I know all about that trust me……. when you have to go in?”
“In a few……... where is your lil boo at?” She said looking around the club.
“I don’t have a lil boo bitch you tried it.” I said laughing with her. Ron came back from the bathroom and joined us; Jakayla left after about another 20 minutes to go to work.
“You look drunk as fuck.” Ron said drinking my last drink.
“Didn’t you say we should get fucked up? And bitch you are buying me another drink with yo big head ass.” I said standing up.
“Fuck you, come on let’s hit up waffle house……. I’m hungry as hell and I know you aint got no food at yo house.” He said standing up as well.
“You buying? It is my birthday after all.” We left out and was driving on the highway when I looked over at him, he looked like he was in deep thought. I didn’t bother asking him what was wrong because I knew he wasn’t going to tell me anyway. Once we made it to waffle house, it was packed so we got our food to go because I was not about to sit in there around all those people.
After we finished eating, I was a bit more sober than I was before, now I was kinda sleepy. I looked over at Ron and this nigga was knocked out. I went into my room to get some clothes out for a shower when my phone buzzed. It was Alton wishing me a happy birthday, I replied, ‘thank you’ and went took a shower, I went into the second bedroom and pulled a pillow and cover of the bed. I went into the living room to see Ron still asleep on my couch. I tossed the cover and pillow to the side of him, I took off his shoes and helped put him in a comfortable position before going back into my room. I slowly started to fall asleep after spending nearly 20 minutes playing on my phone.
“Jaye?” I heard Ron yell from my room door scaring the piss out of me.
“Bitch I swear I’m going to fuck you up. You always doing something stupid.” I said throwing a pillow at him.
“Shut up…… I’m about to head to the house.”
“Ron it’s late and you’ve been drinking, just stay here and leave in the morning.” I said sitting up in the bed.
“I don’t have any clothes and I need a shower, I’m good now that I got a nap.”
“I have some clean shorts and tee shirts and I have underwear still in the pack now go take a shower and I will get them out for you. I don’t wanna hear yo damn mouth either.” I said getting out the bed to get the clothes. He didn’t say anything, he just rolled his eyes and went in the bathroom. A few minutes later I heard the shower turn on. I hated being woken up because it would be hard as hell for me to go back to sleep. I got the clothes out for Ron, then I went into the kitchen to fix another drink. After I made it back into my room, I sat down on the bed and turned on a movie I knew I wouldn’t finish.
“Where the clothes at pussy?” Ron said walking into my room a few minutes after he finished showering with nothing on but a towel. I have seen him shirtless many times but him being practically naked in my bedroom put me in a daze. “Nigga did you hear me?” He said knocking me out my daze.
“Oh, umm right there on the dresser.” I said pointing to where I put the clothes. He looked at me and smirked before walking over to get the clothes.
“You aint fix me a drink?” I looked over to him just as he dropped the towel from his waist.
“Umm, I can fix you one.” I said trying to pretend I wasn’t looking at him. I got up out the bed and was walking to the door when he did something that I wasn’t expecting. He grabbed me by my waist and pulled me to him. I didn’t know what he was up to nor did I care, the only thing I could focus on was his dick starting to harden on my ass.
No words were spoken for the next 20 minutes as we made out. The way he was making me feel in this moment was something I could and probably would never forget. His dick was huge, and I could barely fit it in my mouth, but I managed to do so with scathing him with my teeth. His moans were music to my ears and forced me to give him my best. I was surprised when he bent me over the bed and buried his tongue deep in my ass. He was eating my ass so good that I didn’t want him to stop. He continued to eat me for about 15 minutes before stopping and making me slide up in the bed. I reached over in my nightstand drawer and grabbed the lube I had stashed there from my last jackoff session.
He took his time and he was patient while trying to get his dick in me. Once we found our rhythm, I could see why Jakayla was so crazy over this nigga. He had me moaning so loud and I’m sure I probably spoke gibberish a few times as well. As I laid on my back, this nigga was fucking me like he had a point to prove. The more I scratched his back, the harder he went, after about another 20 minutes of him fucking my brains a loose, he pulled out of me and shot his nut all over my chest and neck area while moaning and jolting forward with each shot of nut. Once he started to calm down, he leaned down and kissed me while I caught one of the best nuts I ever experienced.
We cleaned up and cuddle for the rest of the night while talking about what happened. He told me he doesn’t know what made him want to try that with me, but he enjoyed himself more than he thought he would. Although he and I had sex several times after that, we decided to cut that part of our friendship out. We are still best of friends and we still hang out as much as we can considering our schedules conflict a lot. I will never forget those times we shared but I’m also internally grateful for Ron being in my life.
I was working for this inventory company for a few months when I was promoted to inventory manager. I was assigned to certain stores and pretty much had my team together when they decided to hire a bunch of people. The downside to having new people on my team was the pace slowed down due to me training them. No matter in what company you may work for when you get promoted there are going to be haters and people just downright salty because they didn’t get the position. Either way, I was happy but my love life sucked monkey balls, I couldn’t find a man to save my life. I take part to blame in that because of the insecurities that I dealt with at the time.
I got up for work this particular morning feeling awful, I went out the night before, got in at around 2:30 am and had to get up at 6 am for work. (Wasn’t one of my best choices.) When I made it to the pick-up spot my team was looking defeated as well, so I knew this was going to be a long day. I went and got all the equipment together and loaded it into one of the vans to leave. The new people showed up shortly afterward and we were ready to hit the road. I had this one friend Ron (straight guy) that I always shot the shit with every day. He would always seem to make the day easy for me by doing stupid shit that just hyped up all of us.
We made to the job site and began working, I had about 5 out of the 8 new people that no matter what I did, they just couldn’t seem to catch on to add and subtract. In the ones that I was going to definitely keep, there was this one guy named Alton, he was brown skin, had dreads, a deep voice, and a gorgeous smile. He was the most impressive, not just because he was sexy but because he actually took direction well. Once I showed him what to do, it was only a few times he came to me for something after that.
On our lunch break, I was eating at a nearby food joint with my homie Ron when Alton and a few other people walked in. I was so engulfed in Alton’s looks and the way he walked that I was totally ignoring Ron.
“Nigga, did you hear me?” He said throwing a fry at me.
“No, my bad what did you say?” I said embarrassed.
“I said that since we off tomorrow we should go to the Daquiri Café and get fucked up.”
“I don’t know about that, I had enough to drink last night to last me the rest of the year.” I said laughing.
“Punk ass, come on man join ya boy and live a little.” He said pleading, and after a lil back and forth I finally agreed. He was right tho, he would ask me to go out with him and his girl all the time, but I always found an excuse not to go.
“Aye, can I join yall?” Alton said approaching us with his food on his tray.
“Sure,” I said looking at the food on his tray. “You sure you can eat all that before it’s time to go back?”
“Probably but if I can’t then I will just pack this shit up and take it home.” He said after sitting down, we all shared a laugh together and spent the rest of our break getting to know our new team member.
We finally got thru the day, to say I was beyond tired was an understatement. I already sent a van full of people home and the only people left was the audit team. We made sure all the counts were accounted for as well as correct any mistakes that were made. This process could take anywhere from 30 mins to 4 hours depending on the corrections that needed to be made. Ron and Alton stayed back to help with this process and that made it easier for me because they kept me laughing.
“So, Alton since you apart of our team now, and since we all have the same schedule…... I was thinking that you should join Jaye and me at the Daquiri Café tonight for some drinks and bitches.” Ron said.
“I don’t know about the bitches’ part because as you and I both know yo girl will kick both of us in the dick if she finds out.” I said laughing.
“I’m game, I wasn’t doing shit tonight anyway.” Alton said. I wasn’t too sure about this because even though Ron knew I was gay, I didn’t like to hang around new people who didn’t know about my lifestyle. That could turn out really bad or just make it awkward while working.
“Cool, they have two we can choose from but since Jaye is technically our boss I vote he choose which one we go to,” Ron said smirking.
“I can’t fucking stand you and I’m not your boss, I’m only your supervisor while we work in the stores, I can’t fire or hire nobody just write you up and make a recommendation for your termination that’s it.” I said laughing.
“Stop lying nigga, I looked at your computer earlier and I saw that you got rid of some of the people that came today.”
“Shut up, that’s private information and while in training and since I’m still the lead trainer I do get to say who stays and who goes but I had to get rid of them because they just…… I don’t know maybe someone else can help them, but I can’t anymore.”
“So, was I on that list of people? I mean just keep it real.” Alton said with a nervous look on his face and I smirked.
“No, you weren’t if that was the case you wouldn’t be here right now…… enough of all this bullshit talk I need yall to go look for these sections that haven’t come in yet.” I said hanging them the list of things I needed to be checked.
After making it home I was beyond tired, all I wanted to do was lay down in my bed and sleep until the following week. That was short lived because just when the sleep was getting good my phone started ringing. I grabbed it to see it was my boos calling.
“Hey, I need some information about the people you switched and the ones you wanna keep.” She said after I picked up the phone.
“The ones I wanna keep had absolutely no problem catching on to the work but the other five were just horrible at taking direction. I didn’t suggest that they should be fired I just wanted them to go to Bobbi or Angie team because they work in smaller stores and they can focus more on them than I could.”
“Ok, we can do that but just for future references…... don’t involve me in your crap, you have every right to assign whomever you want to any team if you feel like they would be an asset to that team. Oh, and you did an amazing job today, I got nothing but good reports from the district manager.”
“Tell me something new but I will talk to you later I have some things to take care of.”
“Ok see you on Monday.” She said hanging up the phone. I looked at the time and realized that it was almost time to go meet up with Ron and Alton down the street at the Daquiri Café. I went took a shower and pulled out some clothes, no sooner than I got dressed Ron called my phone.
“Damn can I put some draws on before you get to rushing me out the house?” I said laughing.
“Nigga you should have been had yo shit on……. I’m outside so bring yo ass and open the door.” He said hanging up, I threw on some socks and went to open the door before I had to kick his ass. “You never on time for nothing nigga, you were late for work this morning, and now you just now getting dressed.”
“If you going to be bitching all night then you can beat ya feet motherfucker.” I said walking back to my room, while walking I got hit in the back with a pillow off the couch. “You better stop before I whoop yo ass and put my shit back in the right spot too.”
I walked into my room tempted to just say fuck it and call it a night, but I made a promise and I was going to keep it. I walked out the room to find that this nigga took all my pillows off my couch and tossed them on the floor. This nigga always doing stupid shit when he come over here, like the last time he came over here he put dish soap in my fish tank which killed all my damn fish. He did buy me some more but it’s stupid shit like that that works my nerves with him. I didn’t say nothing to him, I just walked into the kitchen and filled up a pot with hot water and walked back into the living room.
“Yo you better not throw that shit on me.” He said holding up one of the pillows.
“You got 30 seconds to fix my couch you jackass.” I said still holding the pot, he quickly put all the pillows back on my couch and I started laughing.
“You never play fair tho Jaye, why would you wanna throw hot ass water on me before we go out that shit foul man.” He said laughing.
“Because you always doing stupid shit, that’s why I’ma stop you from coming over here.” I said walking to the door.
“Whatever let’s go that nigga probably already waiting on us.”
“Ok but you driving because I’m still tired.”
We made our way to the Daquiri Café in no time at all because as I said earlier it was literally down the street from my house. When we walked in I spotted Alton sitting at the bar, I thought he was sexy earlier but now that I see him in regular clothes…… this nigga is drop dead gorgeous. I had no idea how I was going to get thru this evening without staring at him the whole night. We walked up to the bar where he was sitting and sat down, Alton turned his head and looked in our direction.
“About time yall showed up, I thought yall flaked out on me.” He said laughing.
“No, but there is something you should know about our boss here……. His ass always late to everything. I got over to his house and his ass wasn’t even dressed yet.” Ron said laughing.
“Well unlike you two bastards I had more work to do when I got home and plus I was still tired from last night. Yall lucky I’m even here right now.” I said flagging down the bartender. We all placed our order and sat there just talking like we had been friends for ever.
“So how long you been doing Inventory?” Alton asked me.
“For about a year now, it wasn’t my first choice but when I was offered the job, they gave me an offer that I couldn’t refuse.” I said sipping from my cup. “Overall, it’s been good, but I don’t think I wanna make a career out of it like Doris and Linda, but it pays the bills and leave me with extra in my pocket.”
“Cool, this is new to me I’m used to working fast food or doing lil odd jobs from temp services.”
“You have great work ethics, unlike some people I know.” I said looking at Ron.
“Aye fuck you nigga I’m the best person you have on your team so miss me with the bullshit or I’ma have to beat yo ass.”
“The only thing you can beat is yo meat nigga, don’t start your bullshit.” I said and we all bust out laughing.
“How long yall been cool? It seems like yall brothers or something.” Alton asked and the way he said ‘something’ didn’t sit right with me but I wasn’t going to think on it too much.
“Before my promotion we worked a few jobs together, he has been a thorn in my side ever since.”
“Yea right nigga, but Jaye is a down right cool as dude, he will do whatever he can to help anyone just as long as they trying to do shit for themselves.”
“That’s what’s up, but let’s go get a game of pool in and get this shit crunk.”
We played pool, got some food, had more drinks than I wanted to have, and had a damn good time just shooting the shit. The night was going good until Ron got a call from his girl and what ever they talked about had him in a sour mood for a bit.
“What’s going on Ron?” I asked him.
“She pissed off at me because in her words she never gets to see me until I’m horny or whenever I make time but that’s a lie because I was with her before I came to get you and she knew that we were hanging tonight.”
“Ok well let’s cut this night short and you go fix things with your girl because I don’t have time for her kicking both our ass.”
“Man fuck that, she will be just fine, I’m not about to keep catering to her bullshit every time she gets in one her moods.” He said ordering another round of drinks.
“You not gone learn until that girl murder yo ass but its your shot.” I said picking up my pool cue.
The night went on and we cut the drinks off because Alton looked drunk as hell and Ron was getting there. I had an extra room at my house, but I wasn’t to sure about letting either one of them sleep over. Ron wasn’t going to stay any way if push came to shove, he was going to call his girl to come get him and I take his car home, but Alton I knew nothing about so that was a definite no on his part.
“If this bitch sends me one more text, I’ma go over there and throw her phone in the middle of the street.” Ron said showing me all the text messages between him and her. I scrolled up reading the messages, but I went to far up and saw some pictures they sent each other. Let’s just say I see why she so paranoid because Ron had some serious meat down there.
“Umm…... just drop me off at the house and you go be with your girl bruh.” I said reluctantly giving him his phone back.
“I’m not ready to go and if you don’t wanna leave right now I can bring you home and let this nigga go get his shit together.” Alton said catching me off guard.
“Jaye don’t like people knowing where he stays so we can just do this some other time.” Ron said drinking the last of his drink.
“Nah it’s cool bruh, you go take care of that and call me later.” I said dapping him up.
Ron left us at the Café while he went to go make sure his girl was good, no matter what I did I couldn’t shake the image of his dick out my head. It was the prettiest dick I had seen in a very long time, I know I shouldn’t have kept thinking about it, but I couldn’t help it.
“You ready to go.” Alton said bringing me out of my thoughts.
“Umm yea…... but can you drive because I don’t wanna spend the rest of my night laid up in a hospital room.” I said laughing.
“Yea I got you, I aint that messed up.” He said laughing.
We left out and made it to my house in one piece, I thought about it and there was no way I was going to let this dude drive home drunk. I told him that he could crash on the couch and leave in the morning when he woke up. I went into my room to get him an extra cover and some shorts to sleep in, when I went back into the living room this nigga had kicked off his shoes and was laying on the couch watching tv.
“I got you a cover and some shorts to sleep in, there is food and drinks in the fridge as well, just don’t touch my cokes.” I said placing the stuff on the couch.
“Or you can go get comfortable as well and pour us some more drinks, I know you got liquor in here.” He said smirking, against my better judgement I went and threw on some night clothes and walked back into the living room. He had changed into the shorts I gave him, but he didn’t have a shirt on, his body was on point and I was stuck in one spot staring at him. “What you looking at nigga?” he said laughing, I hung my down in embarrassment and walked into the kitchen. I poured us some drinks and walked in the living room.
“Umm you need a shirt to put on?” I asked after handing him his drink.
“Nah, I don’t like sleeping in shirts I feel like I’m being suffocated.” He said laughing.
We started drinking and watching tv for a while, I looked at the time and it was now 3 in the morning. I stood up and staggered a lil bit from the drinks I consumed. I shook off the feelings, looked at his body one last time and started to walk to my room before he stopped me.
“If you wanna look you don’t have sneak just look.” He said smiling. I was taken back by his comment, it caught me off guard to the point where I ran right into the wall.
“You aint all that nigga but goodnight I’m going to bed.”
“I guess weakling.” He said laughing.
“Unlike you, I didn’t get much rest last night or when I got off so excuse me if I’m tired, now go to bed before I punch you in the face.” I said laughing.
“Don’t get fucked up, but I hear ya take yo tired ass to bed.” I didn’t bother saying nothing back I just went to my room and laid across my bed.
The thoughts of Ron’s dick flashed back to my mind as well as the comment that Alton made. Maybe I was drunk and overthinking things, but it sounded like he was flirting with me. the more I thought about it the more I had to find out what he meant by that comment. I got up and walked back into the living room where he was still finishing off the last of his drink.
“What did you mean by the comment you made a few minutes ago?” I asked him standing in the door way.
“Man, what yo drunk ass talking about?” He said laughing.
“About me staring at your body.”
“Oh, I meant that I noticed you staring at me a few times but when you saw me you tried to act like you wasn’t, so I said that if you wanted to look at me then just do it.” He said still laughing.
“Whatever, I look at what I want and who I want so what’s it to you?”
“It’s nothing to me, but I thought you was going to bed?”
“I am why you wanna join me?” I said and almost slapped the hell out myself for saying that shit.
“You probably would like that wouldn’t you?” He said laughing.
“Whatever, goodnight Alton.” I said walking back to my room.
I turned on my tv and laid under the covers, I couldn’t believe that I actually said that stupid shit to this dude. He didn’t go off on me but still I never said nothing like that to a straight guy before so that alone made me feel dumb as hell. I closed my eyes and began to fall asleep, a few seconds afterwards I heard my door open. When I opened my eyes, Alton was walking towards me, he didn’t say anything, he just walked to my bed and climbed in. before I could ask him what the hell he was doing he pressed his lips to mine and all rationality went out the window. Was this really happening? What am I thinking right now? How would this affect us at work? All these things went thru my mind, but my body had another mind of it’s on.
His lips, his body, they sway of his hips thrusting up into me, even down to the way he touched me had my mind blown. I couldn’t believe that I was laying in my bed, on my back with a dude I work with feeling me up. One more kiss from him made all those thoughts vanish, he was gentle but yet had an aggressive side to him that turned me on. That night went without any hiccups, his sex was superb, he really took my mind into places they haven’t been before. However, with everything good comes bad but this wasn’t as bad as my first relationship, but it was not good either.
This platonic relationship has been going on for a few months and I was relatively happy. Ron never knew about it because I kept him out of my personal business. We would still carry on like normal when we would be working and then freaks late at night. We would also hang out with Ron from time to time when we all were off. I found out a lot about him (that he was willing to share.) and I also told him things about me. I’m glad that I wasn't the first dude he had been with because the things that come later would have ended way worst then it did. I was overseeing two different teams now and didn’t have as much free time, but I made a way around everything. If I knew that this would be this much of a headache then I probably would have just stuck to a lessor promotion.
Alton was always trying to find a way to be at whatever store I was working in, I should have paid attention to the signs then, but I didn’t. I was working at this store in the mall one night, time wasn’t on my side because I was working with a rookie team. The good thing about it was that I wasn’t ‘in charge’ I was only supervising another manager. I brought Ron along with me because I was going to need him on this job because he was the only one besides me that have done inventory for that store in the past.
“Man Jaye, it’s after two in the morning and I think we need to kick these hoes in the ass or something.” Ron said while I was looking at the paperwork.
“I wish I could but the good thing about it is that these are easy corrections, they can just type in the corrections.”
“Well she need to get on the audit team to do their job, so we can bounce.”
“You coming for drinks at my house? Alton supposed to be coming.” I said looking at Ron.
“I can’t tonight because for 1 it’s already late, and 2 my girl already called me like 6 times.”
“I see you still pussy whipped huh?” I said laughing. “But it’s later on today not at this time of night, I don’t want yall motherfuckers at my house this time of night.”
“You tried it huh? I can never be pussy whipped, I got too much dick for all that.” He said laughing, and I immediately had a flash back to when I saw his dick pic in his phone.
“I hear ya, but let’s get the fuck outta here and let these fools figure this shit out.” I said packing up my things.
“Jaye, I don’t know if I ever told you before, but I really fucks with you, even though I know about your lifestyle, you never came on to me or made me feel uncomfortable in any kind of way.”
“Bitch, you aint my type anyway so why would I come on to you and second I fucks with you too even tho you a jackass and dumb ad hell.” I said pushing him into one of the closed pop up shops.
“You gone pay for that ass hole.” He said running towards me, by the time he caught me I was already out the mall and in the parking lot. He grabbed me, and we started play fighting in the middle of the parking lot, if anybody would have saw us they would have thought we were fighting for real.
I made it home about 30 minutes after leaving Ron, when I pulled up to my house Alton was sitting in the driveway. I looked at him and shook my head because I wasn’t expecting him to beat me here. He only stayed the night 1 other time after that first night, mainly my choice because I wasn’t trying to start that live in shit with nobody.
“You early, I was expecting to beat you here.” I said walking up to the door, he came up behind me and grabbed me by my waist and kissed me on my neck.
“I been here, I couldn’t wait to see you, everything still on for later?”
“Yea, I have to go pick up the food at 4 and run and get a few more things tho.”
“You think all that is necessary? It’s just us and Ron punk ass, right?”
“Yea but I don’t feel like cooking, so I ordered some wings and stuff.”
“Ok, so how about we take this conversation to a more suitable space……. Like your bed.” He said smirking, I looked at him and winked before stripping out my clothes and walking to my room with him right on my trail.
I took a shower and prepared myself for some more amazing sex, something that Alton delivered on time after time. The next day I was getting things ready for the party while Alton was working, it was a local and smaller store, so it only took an hour drive time and a few hours to count the store. While I was out picking up the food I got a phone call from Debby this lady that was on the same training team as me.
“Jaye, you not going to believe what the hell happened on the drive back?” She said a little to eagerly for me.
“What happened, did Ralph finally crash them people van and everybody getting paid?” I said laughing.
“No, but you know the new girl that is on your team Kelsey?”
“Yea the one that can’t count or see to safe her life, what about her?”
“Well she was talking mad shit about how your gay ass think you know everything and this and that, just saying all kinds of bullshit about you.”
“Well that hoe is just salty because I only gave her dumbass big stores where everybody is there and not individual stores because I’m tired of always correcting the shit she fucks up.”
“That may be true but that’s not the killer part, bitch tell me why Alton was literally about to fight the girl……. He was telling her that she is talking all that shit but won’t say none of that shit to yo face and about how she should learn to count and shut the fuck up because she didn’t know nothing about you.”
“What? Wow that’s crazy, wasn’t Ron supposed to be with yall as well?”
“That whore said he worked all night and he wasn’t coming but look let me finish telling you what happened……. The chick told Alton he must be fucking with you from the way he was acting and that’s when things went real crazy in there. He told her that if he was to get down like that then yea he would be fucking with you and she needs to get a man or a woman because she looks dick deprived. Jaye when I tell you this nigga went so hard on this chick that he is actually getting wrote up now by Doris for making threats to the girl.”
“I can’t believe that he did all that for little ole me.” I said laughing. “I’ma have a talk with Doris later and see if I can get her to forgive and forget. As far as that hoe Kelsey goes…... she can kiss her job goodbye because I don’t deal with that kinda shit from coworkers and I will also have a talk with Alton as well to let him know I appreciate that gesture, but he didn’t have to do all that.”
“Your too late because Doris fired her ass not to long ago, but what I hear about this kick back you supposed to be having and why didn’t I get an invite?”
“Who told you about that? never mind don’t even tell me, but you are more than welcome to come.”
“I guess but let me go do some negotiating with Doris about your lil boyfriend……” She said laughing. “I will see you later.”
The lil kickback was good, we all got drunk, laughed, and had a good time without any hiccups. Ron and Alton stayed back and helped with the clean up which I’m grateful for because I was not trying to do all this shit by myself. I was helping out when Ron decided that he wanted to get in one of his playful moods. He walked up behind me and put me in a headlock.
“I told you I was going to get yo ass back for that lil stunt the other night.” He said laughing.
“You are such a dick, move so we can finish this shit.” I said giving him an elbow to the side.
“Right while yall wanna run around like a bunch of fools leaving me to do all this shit.” Alton said with a mean look on his face.
We got thru the cleaning process but there was something seriously wrong with Alton. He didn’t say nothing the rest of the night and he even went home without saying bye or anything. I was feeling to good to even care at that point because I didn’t see the point or reason of him acting like that. I was laying in my bed trying to go to sleep when he called my phone.
“So, I wanna know what’s really going on between yall two because yall act like yall go together or have some secret shit like we have going on.” He said soon as I picked up the phone.
“What the hell are you talking about and who are you talking about?” I said clearly confused.
“Ron nigga don’t play dumb.”
“Ron? Are you serious right now?’
“Very.”
“Dude you must be drunk or high right now because Ron is like a brother to me and we don’t nor have we ever messed around with other.”
“It doesn’t seem like that to me, yall always touchy feely with each other and always having private conversation and he always calling you more than he talks to his supposedly girl.”
“Alton you are tripping right now and I’m not about to do this with you when for one we not together, we have sex and do other shit that couples do but we never put a label on what we have and 2, Ron is straight, it’s not my fault that we have a close relationship. But you assuming shit and accusing us of fucking around is absurd.”
“Like I said it don’t seem like that to me.”
“Goodnight Alton, I’m not doing this with you right now, I’m drunk I’m horny and I have absolutely no strength to have this pointless argument with you. So, if you not coming fuck me then get the fuck outta ear with all this non-sense.” I said hanging up the phone. I put it on the nightstand by my bed and turned over on my pillow.
I couldn’t believe he thought that me and Ron had a secret affair going on, as much as I would probably be open to the idea I knew Ron better than anyone and I knew that he was not the least bit gay or curious. He was my bro and that’s all that it was between us and all he would ever be. I dozed off the sleep shortly afterwards over the day and over that dumbass conversation with Alton.
A few weeks had passed since I had that lil kick back at my house and since Alton accused me of fucking with Ron. He and I still talk and each time I saw a different side to him and that put me in a bad headspace about him. He would be ok until he saw me and Ron together then he would act jealous and paranoid about it. as many times as, I reassured him that nothing was going on between us he just wasn’t getting it.
I had cooked some food when I got off work, I didn’t want to, but Ron paid for some of the stuff, so it left me with no choice. I had got finished and was sitting in the living room watching tv when there was a knock on the door. I got up to answer it when all of a sudden it swung open and Ron came in and jump on me.
“You fucking bitch, I should shoot yo ass for that dumb shit.” I said laughing.
“You should have been at our store today, things got real crazy afterwards.”
“You better let me up before I knee you in the nuts.” I said trying to get from under him.
“If you do that then I’m going to fuck you up for real.” He said calling my bluff, I managed to free one of my hands and grabbed a handful of his dick and squeezed it tight as hell. “Ahhhh fuck ok you win, let go.” He yelled out in pain.
“That’s what I thought.” I said as I let go of him.
“You wrong for that shit Jaye, punk ass.”
“Aww did I hurt your lil friend…... well if you would have go off me then you wouldn’t have had that happen but come get your food before I chop your balls off.” I said laughing but I could still feel his dick in my hand and that made me smile harder.
“Dude, I can’t walk right now I think you broke it.” He said, and I had to laugh at how stupid he sounded. I almost said something crazy like ‘you want me to check and see’ but I had to refrain from saying it, so I went into the kitchen and started fixing his food.
“Your food ready jackass.” I yelled out when I was done. he was really putting on a show because he walked into the kitchen limping like he was really hurt. “Oh, stop it, it wasn’t that serious for you to be acting like this.” I said shoving him.
“Yes, it is, you broke my dick with yo punk ass.” He said laughing and then charging over to me picking me up.
“That’s what got you in pain last time…… put me down before this time I cripple yo ass for real.” I said laughing. He slowly put me down and I slapped him in the chest Ric Flair style. “Asshole.”
“You better stop hitting on me before I have yo ass in here calling for mercy.” He said cracking his knuckles.
“Run up then.” I said looking at him and he did but before he could get to me I reached down and grabbed his dick again. I was going to take every chance I got to feel on it. He paused and leaned over into me while yelling ‘Ahh and ok, stop fuck.
“You not playing fair…. If I didn’t know any better, I would swear you just trying to rub on my dick.” He said holding his dick.
“Did it seem that way because from my vantage point I was trying to hurt yo stupid looking ass.” I said laughing. He didn’t get a chance to reply because my phone started ringing and I went to go get it.
“Hey what you up to?” Alton asked when I answered the phone.
“Nothing much, talking and fixing some food for Ron and His girlfriend.” I said, and I could hear the deep breath he took.
“So, you talk to him before I hear from you all day, that’s shit so crazy bruh but ok cool I will just holler at you later.” He said hanging up the phone.
“I swear that dude has serious issues, he thinks that we go together or fucking.” I said laughing.
“Tell ya lil boyfriend that IF I was fucking you then you probably would be too sprung to even give his ass a thought.” Ron said laughing.
“Boy please, from what I know you the one pussy whooped so miss me with all that bullshit about being sprung. But he just puts me in a terrible headspace with all the jealousy shit and we haven’t even discussed if we were in a relationship or not.”
“Don’t you think that’s something you should figure out before things get to complicated?”
“Yea but I’ve already made up my mind tho Ron, I can’t be another controlling and overly jealous ass nigga again. I’ve been down that road and I promised myself that I would never do it again.”
“Yea I feel ya, but figure shit out and cut his ass loose and as far as me being pussy whooped goes…… you got me fucked up, you felt how much dick I got, I could never be pussy whooped.” He said shoving me.
“Whatever, get your food and get out before she comes over here and make you eat those words you just spoke.” I said laughing.
Things between Alton and I had to come to a stop and I made the decision to bring to that stop. I told him that I can’t be with someone who didn’t understand my friendship with Ron or being that jealous over something that’s not there. Some jealously is cute but the aggressively jealousy scares me because of the things I went thru with that before. Eventually we ended things, but we still remained cordial while we were working, and he even came over to the house when I had lil get togethers. We didn’t talk much about what transpired between us unless it was at the right moment. I felt bad for the way it ended but it was something I had to do for the both of us. At that point in my life I could afford to go back down a dark path in another relationship.
