Charity EventJewelanna's POV
"Yes, he is over there somewhere with my husband." Mama Dianna said pointing off where our table was seated at. I looked over to see if I could get a view of Derrick. He was standing next to this beautiful dark skin girl with her hair up in twist. I took a minute to look over her outfit, she was wearing a yellow chanel dress with splits on both side that stopped at her hips and had a sheer area over her breast. She looked great.
I noticed Derrick's behavior, he looked very uncomfortable. Angry maybe? She tried to run her hand up his chest but he grabbed it and throw it back by her side.
"Mama Dianna, who is that woman talking to Derrick?" I asked pulling her to the side. She looked over.
"That my dear is Meghan Hampton. The ex I was telling you about."
"ohhh, I think I'm going to go make myself known," I said with a small smirk on my face.
Before I made my way over to him, I stopped by the bar to get myself something to sip on. I walked up behind Derrick and little miss Meghan saw me. I put my arm around his waist. That made her frown deeply.
"Hey love, would you like something to drink?" I asked rubbing Derrick's chest while eyeing little miss Meghan.
"No thank you, baby." He placed his arm around my shoulder. I see I wasn't the only one being petty. I liked the way "baby" rolled off of his tongue.
"mhm okay, who is this?" I asked leaning into him.
"No one sweetie-"
"I'm Meghan Hampton, who are you?" She interrupted him, looking me up and down.
"I'm Derricks' date, Jewelanna Johnson. You have yourself a good evening." I pulled Derrick away from her and headed to the table.
"Jewelanna wait," he said coming to a stop.
I looked up at him, "yes?"
"There's nothing going with me and her, she just someone from my past. I swear. I'm not forced on what's behind me. I'm only worried about what's in front of me." He said looking into my eyes, moving a piece of hair out of my face.
"I trust you." He pulled me into a breathtaking kiss.
This man is going to be the death of me.
Derrick's POV
I looked down at her and saw nothing but lust and love? in her eyes. This woman is going to be the death of me.
It was about two hours into the event and we only had the building for another hour.
"Attention, can I have everyone's' attention." My mother said standing behind the podium on stage. She waited until she had everyone's attention.
"Thank you, I would like to thank everyone for coming and supporting my event this year. Thank you Major Livington for coming out on this lovely evening. Each year we try to outdo the last, and I must say I believe this year is the best by far. We set a goal to raise $600,000 dollars. I am very happy to say we raised over one million dollars!" She waited as everyone cheered.
