Double Or Nothing (Sequel To Double Standards Part 2)

Holder of the Key

Staring at my father's angry face, I just snorted "whatever. There's nothing wrong with me and no I don't need or want anyone's help. Now if your done, I got better things to do"

"Cole" My father gritted out. "Don't take this warning lightly. If you continue on this rampage of senseless fighting and killing the consequences will be dire. Next it will be London that comes to you and he will by all means do whatever necessary to protect the family".

"Let him" I sneered as I slammed the door on my way out. Taking to the streets, I walked bumping into people along the way, hoping one would be stupid enough to say something. So the family thinks I'm to careless and will bring trouble to the fam, I thought to myself. I really wish I had Miri' s number right now. She always knows what to say. I was just about to enter a boxing gym to relieve some anger when I saw her, Dem's girl, Samantha.  I watched as she gave some dude her number and hopped on the bus. I should give Dem a call but right now I've got to legally beat the hell out of some poor sucker. See if the king opposes me relieving my wrath this way.

Demarco

It's been a week and still no word from Sam. I was tired of wondering what I did wrong to make her avoid me like the plauge. Not to mention my temper was flareing and I was a ticking time bomb.

Finally, I decided to wait outside of her apartment like some stalker, but I had to see her. Samantha finally came out and I jumped from my car running over to her standing in her path to halt her walking. Sam looked up at me surprised.

"What's up Sam?" I said angrily.

"Hi Demarco". Samantha replied shyly.

Before she could say more I blurted out in a hateful tone. "What the fucks going on? You won't accept my calls, I can't find you at work? Why are you avoiding me?"

"Demarco".

"No Samantha, you owe me a explanation".

"Okay, fine" Samantha said irritated.

"You turned me down".

"I what. What the fuck". I yelled through squinted eye's.

"Shhhh...Demarco. We are in public".

"I don't give a rat's ass. The fuck you mean I turned you down?"

"Just that Demarco. I tried on our date and you said no".

"Jesus Sam, is this what it's all about. I was trying to be a gentleman. Trust me, there is so many bad thing's I want to do you but I fear I wouldn't be able to stop if you backed out. If you decide to sleep with me I want it to be special".

Samantha tried to hide her grin as she spoke. "Really?"

"Yes stupid, silly girl"

"Okay, I'm sorry for overthinking and avoiding you".

I felt the clinch around my heart release at knowing I still had a chance with her. "Apology accepted, but never avoid me again. Talk to me about any and everything. I don't like getting angry with you".

Before Sam could say more I bent down and pressed my lips to hers. Sam kissed me back with just as much hunger. My phone started buzzing and wouldn't stop so I had no choice but to pry my lips from her. Smiling at her I answered my phone.

Samantha

I watched as Demarco took the call all fuzzy inside from the kiss. Suddenly his dark eye's grew darker and and a look of pure rage came across his face. Hanging up he glared at me through his coal black orbs. Snatching my arm he drug me toward his car.
