Chapter Seventeen

Parking Lot Pimpin’

Desire

The night was beautiful. There was a perfect breeze blowing as Dontay and I walked hand in hand along Penn’s Landing. The night was pretty quiet. For the first time, I was able to walk with my man in public. I was patient, just as he’d asked me to be, and now I was ready to reap the benefits. I’d found out about his relationship, and instead of walking away, I stayed to fight through it. I could’ve walked away, but what would I be left with? Even if I had to share him, it was better than the life that I would have without him.

“I’m so happy, Dontay, seriously,” I said as I snuggled close to him.

“I’m glad to hear that. Just so you know, I’m happy too.”

“I want to know more about you. You know I don’t know that much about you.”

“You know enough. I don’t know what else there is that you want to know.”

“Well, how did you get in the business? You’ve never told me that.”

“Why do you want to know that?”

“Because I told you a lot about me.”

“But I didn’t ask you. There are parts of my past that I’d like to keep there. Besides, you haven’t told me everything.”

“Well, almost everything. It’s still more than you’ve told me.” I pouted. I hated the fact that we had secrets. For the past five months we’d been together almost every day and night, yet we did more fucking than anything else. Even when we spent quality time together, we barely talked. He always said it was his quiet time.

“Horse’s older brother, that’s how I got into the business,” he said before sitting down on one of the benches that sat along the water. “Shit was tight around the house. My father stopped giving my mom money, and I got tired of watching her struggle. The end.”

“Do you trust me, Dontay?”

“Of course I do. If I didn’t trust you, I wouldn’t be here.”

“Well, if you trust me why won’t you let me in? I feel like you have this wall up, and I don’t know why.”

“I mean why do we have to talk about this now? It’s really fucking up a good night. What about the gunshot wound? You tell me about that, then I’ll tell you more.”

He knew how I felt about that. That was enough to put any conversation like this to an end. I just wasn’t ready. That was a part of my past that I wish I could forget. Just to speak Tyrese’s name filled my body with an uncontrollable pain. Before Dontay, that was the most important person to me. I wasn’t ready, and I didn’t see me being ready anytime soon.

“I didn’t think you would. Now could we not ruin the rest of the night with this?”

“Okay,” I replied while looking out at the water. I couldn’t be mad. He was right. How could I expect him to be 100 percent open with me when I wasn’t prepared to do the same?

“Let’s do something,” I blurted out.
