CHAPTER 17

MCCOY

“Let me get your keys.” Earth had his hand out, waiting before I could respond. “Legit, baby, come on.”

“Where are you going?” I asked as I dug into my purse. I was trying my hardest not to spaz out. He’d asked me to trust him and let him lead, and I was trying to do just that.

“We are going to see my mama,” he answered as I dropped the keys into his hand. I reared back, surprised, but didn’t say anything. “You thought I was playing last night?”

“About?”

Earth stepped into my space and pulled me by the bottom of my shirt to him so I could close the little space we had between us. “You belong to me, Coy. What’s mine is yours, and that includes my family. Me being locked up here for weeks and not talking to my mama is probably killing her. That’s gotta be fixed ASAP.”

“I’m sorry,” I replied, shaking my head. “I didn’t think this all the way through.”

“It’s cool.” He dropped a kiss on my lips. “Mama might be a little standoffish, but she will understand why you did what you did once we tell her.”

“You sure?” I questioned him, not believing his family would be so understanding. Yes, his brother and friends seemed to be yesterday, but his mother and father would be a different story. Even though he was grown, it was their job to protect him.

“It’ll be cool.” He laughed and kissed me again. I wanted to climb up his body to keep this feeling, but I didn’t. He pulled back, wiped the corner of his mouth, and smiled. “Bring your fine ass on so you can see I’m a man of my word.”

Earth drove my truck to his parents’ house, less than ten minutes from mine. The house was precisely the type of home I pictured for his parents. wrought-iron fence with a long driveway that led to a beautiful three-story house. Earth parked in front of the back garage he said his parents had built a few years ago so they didn't block their driveway when he and his siblings came over.

A tall man with skin the color of melted chocolate, dark eyes, a long nose, full lips, a goatee, and a mean expression on his face came out the back door, a big gun in his hand. Earth chuckled, then shut the truck off. The windows were blacked out so we could see, but no one could see in. “That’s my pop,” Earth said, leaning back in his seat and shaking his head. “Young Carlson looks mean, but nigga is a teddy bear to every woman in the family.”

“You sure?” I questioned him, not believing what he was saying.

“Yep, watch this shit.” Earth kissed me again, then got out of the truck. I watched as his daddy stared at his son for a few seconds, then dropped his head and visibly took a deep breath. Earth walked over to his father and hugged him. His shoulders shook as he cried and patted his son’s back.
