I had to use the power boards to get up.
The girls whispered amongst themselves as he opened the backdoor for them. “Girl, happy fuckin’ birthday to you!” Suki shrieked. “You better act like the bad bitch you are!”
I slowly examined his interior. Black suede seats withRayzorin the headrests in red. He had a single energy drink inside the cupholder unopened. It smelled nice and expensive, well taken care of. You could tell he took pride in his vehicle.
“Girl, hush. I’m along for the ride just like y’all.”
“We know all he wanna do is fuck,” Rhea smartly remarked.
I spotted the intense conversation him and City were having before City hopped into a black truck. The driver left in a rush going in a different direction. I thought Rayzor was going to leave as well.
“Is City coming?” I asked.
“Nah,” he replied, starting the truck.
The engine rumbled, coming to life. It vibrated under my ass.
I glanced back at Suki, and she shrugged. I turned back around as we ran over the lot’s gravel. Security opened the gate for us to exit, letting us into the world.
Fans were on the sidelines with posters of him. They waved and shouted for him. It felt weird being in his spotlight, so I looked off to the side. Yet, I didn’t miss Rayzor holding up two fingers at them, thanking them while smoothly controlling the wheel.
When we touched main road, the sky lit up with Rayzor’s face on the billboards of the arena. He didn’t look fazed by the glitz and glamour of his career. He appeared to be living in the world with the rest of us.
The quietness of the ride, Miami’s cityscape gliding pass as we escaped into it, I glanced out the window, taking it all in. Not believing it was happening made my stomach tight.
“Rayzor, what you want with our girl?” Rhea asked.
My nerves spiked. I wanted him to say something. Cough, clear his throat, anything, but he hadn’t.
His quiet felt dangerous.
“Are you always this quiet?” I asked.
“Only when I’m studying or after a fight.”
“Studying what?”
He glanced around. “You.”
“I’m right here. Just ask.”
“Nah. I’ll find out whatever I need to.”
“Oh.” I clasped my mouth shut.
We arrived at the club. They broadcasted Rayzor and Flow’s fight on the board. When Rayzor exited the truck, people screamed for his attention. The cameras started again.
“Girl, now this how you do your birthday! Go big or go the fuck home!” Suki shouted.
I laughed while nodding my head.
“I guess.”
Rayzor rounded the front of the truck, my eyes following him along the way. He opened the door, and the music, noise and calls sounded full blast. After helping me down, I pulled my dress down while he opened the door for Suki and Rhea.
Then he grabbed my hand, placing it under his arm, and led us to the rope.
They lifted the red velvet material, letting us in.
