Chapter 9

- Lamya Gillard

Chicago, IL

3 months later..

"I got a question" I nervously say as I was laying on Mari in his bed

"Wassup mama" he says putting his phone down

"Do you actually like me. Like, like me like me?" I ask looking up at him

"Wym, why you ask that?" He asks furrowing his brows

"Idk I just.. we've been being real touchy an shit but we don't have no label so I just wanted to make sure you weren't playing with my feelings and just using me" I say shrugging my shoulders

"Yes I actually like you Lamya, I just wanna ask you the right way, like you deserve mama" he said leaning down pecking my lips

"Sorry if you feel like I'm using you or playing w your feelings, I'm just tryna move slow with you yk?" He says

"Yea I understand, I guess I just needed a lil reassurance" I said smiling

"We aint got an official label yet, but you my girl. I'm not fucking around wit people so you not either" he said grabbing my throat and pulling me into a deeper kiss

When we pulled apart I just stared at him then I looked away smiling

I can understand him tryna wait it's a big move from us being friends for so long to a relationship that we hope is gonna work but we don't know for sure.

I was able to go two years without him but idk if I'd be able to do it again cus the only thing I thought about those two years was him.

I'm attached to him..

"Phats" I heard him yell from his bed

"Yes?" I yelled back from the bathroom

"You hungry?" He asked

"Uhhh yea," I reply

"What you-"

"And don't ask me what I want because I don't know" I cut him off

I get up washing my hands then going to lay back on him in the bed

"Imma just get some Wingstop" he says rubbing my ass

I just laid on his chest dozing off

"Mhm" I mumbled falling asleep


————————————————————————
"Wake up ma" I heard

I groan turning my head

"The food is here you gotta get up baby" he chuckles

I roll over in the bed next to him letting him get up so he can go

He gets up and leaves out the room

I was staying over his house this week so I got up and went in my bag and started putting my pajamas on

He walked in the room with the food bag as I was changing

I pulled my shirt over my head and left my pants off climbing back in the bed

*ion know bout yall but I can't sleep w pants unless im sleeping w someone or at someone else house*

He handed me my wings and my drink

I started eating and we were just on our phones in a comfortable silence

"Can I have some of your fries?" I asked looking over at him
