“On my terms and bring a friend.”
“Oh shit, you trying to get down like that?”
I slapped him in the arm.
“Not for me fool. For my girl, Suki.”
“Oh shit, I got you.”
Sitting in his arms in silence, there was a lot said without words. That’s how things were with us. It was dangerous to feel this open, careless and free with a man after all I’ve been through. But even after Rayzor’s antics, I admit that I enjoy being around him.
Rayzor sent a car to pick up Suki and me. We arrived at Teedy’s, one of the exclusive and new restaurants and lounge in the city. It was packed when arrived, but I was nervous to get in. The waitlist was long.
Rayzor was waiting at the curb. I almost ran over and tongued him down because he looked too damn good in his all-black. I’m convinced whatever he wore, he made it look irresistible. It’s in him, not on him.
“Girl, you should’ve told me I was third wheeling, I could’ve called somebody,” Suki mumbled.
“What’s up, Suki?” Rayzor greeted. When she looked at City, it’s like she saw a ghost.
“Hey, Rayzor.” She waved.
“You ain’t gotta call nobody. This was part of the plan,” I told her.
“That’s what my boy City here for, Eris got you right,” Rayzor added.
“Girl, this a double date?” Suki asked, and I giggled. She wasn’t laughing.
“Yeah. I know you said you wanted to double date one day.”
“Yeah, whenever I get a man.”
“Who said I can’t be that, though?” City said. I grinned so hard because Rayzor told me how he was, but he had Suki blushing already, and she doesn’t go that easily.
Rayzor had me under his shoulder watching the exchange.
“Suki, right?” City asked, extending his hand.
“That’s me.”
“You mind kicking it with me at dinner with my boy and E?”
“I guess since they surprising me and everything.” Suki playfully rolled her eyes.
“You think they’ll hit it off?” I whispered to Rayzor as we headed inside.
“They need to so she can stay off yo’ line while I’m trying to get some pussy.”
We shared a laugh.
It wasn’t long before we were seated. Once again, all eyes were on us. Rayzor had to sign autographs and take a few pictures. By the time that was over, our drinks were almost watered down.
Even the waiter talked Rayzor’s ear off. I could tell he didn’t want to be rude by telling the dude to just serve us, but I applaud him. It’s always something to see when he’s being treated like royalty. He was grateful for every supporter.
“Rayzor, does that ever get old?” Suki asked.
“What’s that?”
“People always approaching you.”
