“You want me to stay away yet your breathing increased with me standing next to you. Your eyes are about to close and the hairs on the back of your neck are standing up. So, I’d say you don’t want that at all.” Licking my lips to make sure they weren’t ashy, all I could do was stand there. He had me frozen with lust and the desire to wrap my arms around his neck.
“You wanna fuck Kateri.” Cairo’s whisper was so damn sexy. It’s like he had me in a trance and I’d do whatever he ask.
“Yesssss.” I moaned when his fingertips touched the top of my shoulder.
“Too fucking bad. I don’t want no bitch with a cast on her wrist because how would you jerk me off. And like I said before, you don’t even look like you can suck dick.” Flabbergasted about how that turned out, I stormed inside, up the hallway stairs and opened the door to my house. Throwing my purse in the couch, I went in the kitchen to put the Tupperware from lunch in the sink only to turn around and see Cairo standing there tossing green grapes in his mouth from the fruit bowl. My mother always said there should be some sort of appetizers out for guests whether they’re unannounced or not.
“These grapes good as hell. Grab me a water and where she get those from.” Instead of arguing and in hopes that he’d leave, I snatched the fridge open to get the water and slammed it shut making the two cereal boxes fall off the top. Applejacks poured out all over me. I just stood there looking stupid because what else could I do.
“You clumsy as fuck.” He stood there shaking his head while I stood there waiting for him to leave.
“Just drink the water and go.” He twisted the top of the bottle to drink and I finally moved to get the broom. Feeling my arm being tugged in his direction, I took a deep breath when my body hit his. We were chest to chest; well I was to his chest as he towered over me.
“You pop a lot of shit for someone easily offended and intimidated by me.” Not knowing what to say because he was right, I stood there in silence. What was I supposed to say? He did intimidate and offend me every time we graced each other’s presence.
“Look at me.” His index finger tilted my head back and looking in those sexy eyes had me feeling bold.
Standing on my tippy toes, I took a chance and puckered up for a kiss. When he leaned down to stick his tongue in my mouth, I panicked. Wrapping my arms around his neck and waist like awild animal, I let our kissing game speak for itself. Of course he would be a good kisser and I’m sure an even better lover.
“I know damn well you’re not about to fuck in my kitchen.” My mother’s voice scared the shit outta me. Wiggling my way out of Cairo’s arms, I swear he held me tight on purpose.
“Ma, you’re not supposed to be home for another two hours.” Fixing my clothes, I quickly tried to sweep the cereal up as she made her way towards us.
“And you are?” She questioned Cairo right away.
“Cairo Romano, Ms. Coleman. Pleased to meet you.” I wanted to gag when he bent down to kiss her hand. The fact she started blushing pissed me off even more. It took her a few seconds to gain her composure. I’m telling you, Cairo had that effect on women.
“Aren’t you the man that broke my daughter’s hand.” That’s right she better get him.
“I would never put my hands on a woman. My mother raised me better than that.” I couldn’t believe he just stood there and lied.
“You see, I was handling business and your daughter Kateri walked up interfering. Unfortunately, she fell walking away somehow and must’ve hurt it that way.” He was smooth telling that lie. I would’ve believed him too.
“Kateri what I tell you about minding other people business? That’s why you and Sariah stay in some shit.” My mom snapped, shaking her head.How did him breaking my hand turn into us staying in some shit?
“And I told you to stop being so damn clumsy. How you gonna blame that man for your actions?” Cairo was cracking up standing behind my mother.
“Ma, are you serious?” I used the dustpan to pick the cereal up and throw it away.
“He don’t know me to lie.” She turned to him and he shrugged. I was so damn mad.
“Oh yea, she jumped on me a few minutes ago that’s why you caught us in an uncompromising position. I don’t know what it is with her. It’s like she wanted me so bad she couldn’t wait.” I was at a loss for words staring at him.
“I think she’s killing me telepathically again with her eyes. Maybe I should go.”
“KATERI!! What I tell you about saying that dumb shit. People are going to think you’re crazy.” Cairo used his finger to circle around his head. It was the gesture people made when they called you crazy.
“I’ll see you later Kateri and it was nice meeting you, Ms. Coleman.” Cairo closed the door behind him.
“That man was fine. You better get with him and don’t bring me no grand babies too early.” She patted my face and went to her room.
Walking away myself, my phone rang with a blocked number. I knew it was Cairo and didn’t want to answer but did anyway.
“My mother is having a 65thbirthday party in a few weeks. I’ll send a car for you and clean your pussy well in case we fuck after.” The phone disconnected. That man was crazy but I bet I’m ready for the party and sex.
“Hi,can you remove your jacket and lift your sleeve?” I asked the patient sitting in my chair to have blood taken. Turning around to get the correct vials to collect the blood, I heard the zipper coming down. The guy was sitting in the chair waiting when I turned back around.
“Ok. You want me to lift my sleeve too?”Didn’t I just tell this man to do that?Instead of catching an attitude I answered, took his blood and sent him on the way.
