I was just watching the club and people.
Shug and Ivana ( the other manager) came to me.
" So how do you like it? "
" Its fine." I did not mention how scared I felt though.
I had to go ahead and explain my situation. To get a work.
" ok. We can figure out something to work around you. " I smiled.
Sexy boy walked up.
" Oh this is my son, Jerimiah " Shug says. Son? Man, the bosses son is his sexy ass!
" Hi " I say. I don't know why, but he
made me so nervous.
" This is Mercedes "
" Nice to meet you." He shook my hand.
" She's the new dancer "

" So your the new girl? " I laughed. Ivana and shug had went off.
" yes. And I prefer my name not new girl " he flashes that perfect smile at me.
" My apologies, Welcome Mercedes " I smile at him. " But if you don't mind me asking. Why the hell are you working in a place like this!? "
I chuckled. " Its life. Its really complicated "
" Try me "
" I don't know you "
" Well get to know me. I'm really great. I'm sexy as hell. I'm nice. I'm a beast on the court and I can keep a secret " I laughed.
" Your really cocky "
" I know! You should be more! Have you seen yourself? "
" yeah I own a few mirrors " He smiled.
He was so easy to talk to. I didn't know him but he seemed cool.
You know when you meet people for the first time and you just sort of click with them easily? That's how I felt now. We immediately clicked.
" And I'm sure you can. I got to find my friend and go " I say
" Why are you rushing off so fast? "
" I'm not. I just lost my friend and really need to get home "
" She's around here somewhere "
" He " I correct.
" He? "
" Yes. "
" You talk funny. Where you from? "
" I talk funny? No you do. I'm from south Harlem! " I say over the music. He came closer to hear me.
" Ahaha damn south Harlem? You must be tough. I hear y'all over there chopping niggas up and shit " I bust out laughing.
" As tough as they come. "
" What makes you tough? "
" Well lets see. I drink underage. I park in handicap spots because I'm too lazy! I push old ladies down and slap kids. I'm a real criminal! " I tease. He was laughing so hard.
" Damn you live a hard knock life! " I nod. " Seriously, you look all nice and innocent and genuine I wouldn't believe your from south Harlem "
" Don't let the pretty face and soft voice fool you! " I say smiling. " I'm a real Harlem thug. "
He laughed. " Your not a thug. I'm a thug! "
" You wouldn't last a day in my area! No offence to you or my people! But they would take you as a joke and eat you up and spit you back out to yo side of town "
" Which is? I been about that life! " We had to be in each others ear and talk over the loud music.
" So you think. You will have to prove it to me. Yo thug is probably running out on the dinner bill. Dine and ditch. I did that when I was 8 " We both cracked up laughing.
" You go quite knocking me, new girl. I'm the bosses son you can't do that! " He tease. I laughed.
" I'm keeping it real! We will see. But seriously I got to go find my boy "
" Hope to see you around " I smile and walk off leaving him there.
Now to find Chucky horny black ass and get out of here.
