Aiden.

When Mike left to go inside, I knew all fun and games was done.

I rushed in after him.

Because I knew better.

I knew he wasn't angry.

He was genuinely hurt.
*********************

Mike wasn't always a tough guy. He used to be a gentleman, being nice to women that didn't deserve it. He used to dance and act.

He was so convincing, he convinced me to join him for dance one day.

And then I joined permanently.

I was there when he fell for Saira.

I found out she had a boyfriend and I told him.

But ever hear the phrase 'love is blind'?

He was blindly in love with her.

She would tell him that she'd leave her boyfriend for him.

Then one night, Mike came over to my place.

"Aiden, can I stay the night?"

I looked at his face and gasped.

It was bruised and bloody.

His skin had a few scratches.

"What happened to you?" I asked.

He looked down.

That told me everything.

"Fuck being a gentleman, that doesn't get a girl." he said.

I looked at him.

"Mike-"

"No Aiden, fuck it! When a black man acts like a gentleman, we're played like slaves. They already have a stereotype of us, we're the ghetto assholes that fuck girls and leave them crying the next day. If that's what society wants me to play, I'll accept it."

With that he walked inside and despite his saying that, he cried himself to sleep that night.
***********************************

Since then, he became the Mike everyone knows.

Mean, ghetto and a player.

Everyone notices that.

Nobody notices that he has a sense of humor, a very loyal friend and if given the chance a very loving boyfriend.

I saw him in the kitchen, wiping away the tears that flowed.

As soon as he saw me, he just wiped away his tears.

He cleared his throat.

"Who chopped onions?" he asked.

I chuckle, shaking my head.

"Stop fronting, you were crying." I said.

"No."

"Yeah you were and don't deny it, we grew up together. I know how ugly you look after you've had a good cry and trust me, you look ugly as fuck."

He shoved me and I laughed.

"Yeah? Well, wait till Clarisse finds out how long you last."

I shoved him.

"Which is very long."

He made a face.

"I did not need to know that."

"Says the guy who tells us how long every girl he fucked takes to orgasm."

"You all should be thanking me, that was for future reference."

"Hoe."

"The best in the business."

"Maybe you should retire." I said.

He shook his head.

"There are many flavours I haven't tried yet."

"Do you like Aliya?"

He stopped and looked at me.

"Yeah, she's kinda like the dignified woman that aggravates me but still turns me on."

Now I made a face.

"I did not need to know that. If you like her, you need to tread lightly."

"I'm not stupid. She just lost a brother, the last thing she needs is someone making her a damsel in distress. Next thing you know, she shoots me the next time."

"I doubt she'll do that."

"If she was raised by James, there's nothing to doubt."

Just then, Clarisse came walking in and hugged Mike.

"Are you okay?"

He nodded.

"Nah, I'm fine as hell."

She rolled her eyes.

"Typical asshole."

She walked towards me and kissed me on the lips.

"I get it I'm a lonely hoe, stop it." said Mike.

"We're playing truth and dare." said Clara.

As soon as the words left her mouth, Mike rushed outside.

I smiled at her.

"Sometimes I wonder if God took my rib and gave it to you."

She blushed and was about to walk away when I held her hand and pulled her closer to me.

"Aiden!"

"When you scream I need to pull your body closer let me sex you babe." I sang, grinding on her.

She blushed.

I spun her around and made her look at me.

"Aiden-"

"Say my name another time baby and I'll make you shout it to the heavens."

Her cheeks heated up.

I leaned down and kissed her on the cheeks.

Then I leaned down and sucked on her neck.

"Aiden." she sighed as she pulled on my hair.

I groaned and hoisted her up, placing her on the counter top, placing small kisses on her collar bone.

I unbuttoned her blue checkered shirt and smirked at her, loving what I saw.

"Mine." I whispered.

"All yours." she whispered, hiding her face with her hands.

I gently pried her hands away from her face, holding each hand.

Leaning forward, I kissed her on her breasts, causing her to sigh and arch her back.

I wrapped my arms around her and we kissed.

She unbuttoned my shirt and rubbed my chest.

Now I was sighing.

She jumped off the counter, wrapping her legs around my waist.

I braced her against the wall, cupping her breasts with my hand.

"Aiden." she sighed.

I undid her ponytail, letting her hair caress her shoulders.

"You look so beautiful and erotic at the same time." I whispered.

She giggled and I pressed my lips against hers again.

Just then, the door swung open.

"Well damn Clara, I'm not ready to be an uncle just yet."

We turned around to face Aaron.

Clarisse blushed and quickly buttoned her shirt, exiting the kitchen.

I watched her leave.

Aaron shot me a look.

"Thank your lucky stars that I walked in on you two."

I blushed.

"We weren't going to go far."

"Oh? It's not me you need to tell that to. Tell that to your heart and desires."

He walked away and left me in the kitchen.

Great, now I'm horny and alone.
