“Thugs Get Lonely”—Nate Dogg

The music is pounding and the drinks are pouring. Kyle is in a good mood too, dancing around the bar as he pours drinks.

“You’re overly nice tonight,” I tease, twisting the bottle and putting it back on the rack.

He winks. “I’m always nice.”

“No, you’re not.” I shake my head, smiling at him.

The song switches to some mash-up of rap and electro house and Kyle saunters toward me, pulling me into his chest and inhaling. “Promise not to say anything?”

I cross my heart. “Promise.”

“Okay, it’s—”

“—Watch those hands, bruh,” Aeron says from the other side of the bar, cutting off whatever Kyle was about to tell me.

I roll my eyes, leaning over and kissing him on the lips. “Hey you.”

He grins. “Hey. Is he going to be a problem for me, or…?”

Katiya slaps Manik and then crosses her arms. “He’s with me, so no…”

“Wait!” I throw my finger up. “Really?” I look between the two of them, my smile breaking across my face.

Kyle shrugs and I laugh, hitting him with the back of my hand. “You could have texted that!”

He shrugs again, grabbing Kat by the face and laying a fat one on her.

I shake my head in amazement. I hope it stays like this and doesn’t go back to them wanting to kill each other, or I’ll have to kill them both. There. Problem solved.

Manik grabs my hand and I watch as Lenny leads the rest of his entourage up to the VIP lounge. “You gonna be okay? The boys wanna throw some bills around. I can stay down here if you want?”

I shake my head and wave him away. “It’s fine. Go.”

He leaves, and I’m left with a cheesy looking Kyle.

We’re both heading to the back of the bar to restock when he asks the question. “So, you and the infamous Manik, huh?”

I wave him off. “It’s new, but yes. I think. Although, we haven’t exactly had the talk.”

“Talk, shmalk. Kat says that she’s never ever seen him like this with a girl. That’s got to account for something.”

“Maybe,” I agree, but then add. “Or maybe it’s a game.”

He tsks me, wiggling his finger. “Not enough trust, baby.”

He’s probably right, but trust is earned and I’m not sure if mind-blowing sex and strange dates should be the gauge you use to measure how much you trust someone.

Then again, I’m not exactly experienced in the boyfriend department. I had one boyfriend in high school when I was a junior. We stayed together until senior year and then we decided to go separate ways before college. To be honest, it’s probably because what we had died out before then. It was so easy to let Rob go. The thought of letting Aeron go? I don’t like it. That alone has too much power over me.
