" Why don't you take your coat off and have a seat " Kita offered. "I'll be right back."

Kita said walking towards her bedroom. Kita quickly picked up a few items of clothing she had laying around and looked at the pictures of herself and Tyson displayed on her night stand. Hmm. I'm trying to get some tonight but no one comes before Tyson...I’l turn the pictures around though. Kita thought flipping the two pictures of her and Tyson around lovingly but not completely hiding them.

I hope this Darien is working with something because I aint been broke off something good
since
Tyson. Though Kita had been with a few men since their break up, on her sexual checklist, none of them compared to Tyson sexually in her mind and her body happened to agree. Even the men who wanted to seriously date her she'd turned down...they weren't Tyson.

Kita stripped down to nothing but her heels. Checked herself over in the mirror to make sure her skin looked flawless which it did. Tyson had always complimented her on her beautiful skin. Kita ran her hands over her breasts imagining they were Tyson's hands. Damn!All I have to do is think about Tyson and my body is ready!Kita thought to herself walking backin to the living room.

"Darien, do you mind if we skip the smal talk tonight and just fuck?" Kita asked sweetly.

Darien turned around to find Kita standing there in nothing but her sexy black pumps.

Kitas body was bangin! Smooth ass butterscotch skin all over her body. " Baby you aint said nothing but a word." Darien said removing his own clothing swiftly and smoothly until they were both standing there naked silently observing one another lustfully.

Jazzlyn has more titties and ass than Kita,but this a bad bitch right here no doubt.

Darien thought to himself.

Hmm,Tyson is a little thicker than Darien but this brotha is working with something no doubt. Kita thought to herself as Darien walked towards her with his condoms in his hand and picked her up. Kita wrapped her legs around Dariens waist and began kissing him " Don't take those pumps off." Darien whispered as he laid Kita down gently on the bed.

The Night Isn't Over

Tyson and Jazzlyn pulled up to Shericas duplex."Wel I don't know about everyone else but I had a good time tonight. We'l definitely have to do it again soon...just so everyone knows, I will
not
be the designated driver next time." Tyson said." Hel I'm getting everyone home safe and sound tonight but next time I'm getting my drink on for real."

" Thank you so much Tyson!" Sherica said laughing" Jazzlyn girl we'll talk later on."

Sherica said getting out of the car.

" You two lovebirds get home safe " Jevon said getting out of the car.

"Man are you OK to drive home from here or what?" Tyson asked.

"I'm good man" Jevon said " Y'all get home safe" he said closing the door.

Tyson and Jazzlyn drove off and Jevon and Sherica stood there looking at one another each of them not wanting the night to end " Would you like to come in ?"

Sherica asked.

" I was hoping you weren't going to send me home just yet" Jevon said smiling.

" Have a seat and make yourself at home. I'm going to change and I'll be right back."

Sherica said walking upstairs. Jevon looked around her place curiously. He'd only talked to her outside a few weeks ago and on the phone. Jevon had never been inside her home before. It was nicely decorated,comfortable. As Jevon walked around he felt like he was becoming more familiar with Sherica. Textbooks were on her desk along with Dr.

Seuss books. Jevon laughed when he saw those thinking to himself that he'd want the mother of his kids to be just like that. No matter how busy she was, he could see she still took time to give her son attention. Jevon walked around the room and stopped at a section on the wall where there were beautifully framed pictures of Sherica and her son Isiah. Jevon didn't notice a man in any of the pictures,even the ones of Isiah as an infant.

" That's my boy." Sherica said proudly coming into the living room and seeing Jevon looking at the pictures.

" He's a good looking boy." Jevon said.

" Thank you...you already know I'm going to agree on that point don't you?" Sherica said laughing. " I figured you would." Jevon said smiling.

" It's late,but are you hungry? I can fix us a little breakfast?"

" Yeah,that sounds good. I'll help you." Jevon said following her into the kitchen. " Did you have a good time tonight Sherica?" Jevon asked looking at Sherica intently.

Jevon didn't know why but it really mattered to him that she had a good time. Which was surprising to him because he usual y could have cared less as long as the night ended with him getting what he wanted. Which was usually sex with no strings attached.

" Except for one run -in that had nothing to do with you. Jevon my night was perfect."Sherica said." Do you like your eggs scrambled?" Jevon nodded." Bacon?" "

Yes please." Jevon said . " Have a seat Jevon, I'l have this done in a few minutes."

Sherica said pointing him to the kitchen table.

" So Sherica, we've kinda skated around the issue on the phone when I've asked you about him,but I like you so I want to know. Who was that guy grabbing you at the club?

Was that your sons father? Why isn't he here with you two?" Jevon asked.

"Let's eat and then we'll talk " Sherica said placing their plates on the table and sitting down to eat. They both made a little small talk while they ate and Shericas mind had a mil ion thoughts running through it. Can I trust this man? I've worked too hard to put all that negativity with Lamont in the past and move on. Do I real y want to bring it up now?

Is Jevon worth exposing myself to? Sherica thought to herself.

Jevon was talking to Sherica but he could clearly see she was struggling with if she really wanted to tell her personal business to him. Even though he could feel her hesitation thick in the air,he wanted to know. Plain and simple.

As many women as he'd dated in the past one rule he'd always made for himself as a single man was no women with kids. It's not that he didn't like kids. He'd just always seen single mothers as an added complication that he didn't need or want. What if he and the mother didn't work out? Then he would have disappointed the child. Then there was the element of the whole baby daddy drama. Jevon had seen his boys going through this with women they'd dated with kids. Not to mention the friends he had with kids and they were no longer together with the mother.....yet they stil had free reign to go over and lay up with their kids mothers anytime they wanted. Jevon knew early on he wanted no parts of that bul shit.

Yet for some reason this woman made him want to make an exception to his own rules. They finished eating and Sherica cleared the table putting the dishes in the sink and they went back into the living room and sat down.

"You aren't going to let this go are you?" Sherica asked nervously.

" No I'm not Sherica. You don't have to be nervous. I just need to know. I don't know what it is about you, but you have me thinking about things I never gave a thought to before. I'm not gonna pull any punches with you, I get nervous around your ass. I wonder if I'm doing and saying the right things with you and I just want to feel like I

really
know who I'm feeling like I want to make all these changes for. To be real honest with you Sherica, I was very content being how I was." Jevon said shaking his head.

"OK here it is. The guy at the club tonight is my sons father. His name is Lamont and I don't know how much you know about everyone but he's Trevonne's brother. Lamont and I met and got together nothing spectacular about that when I actually was in my junior year of college. I fell in love with him. Plain and simple. Even though when I think of him now, I have no idea what I even saw in him." Sherica said with a laugh.

"Before we ever even had sex, I mean I was straight up about everything,Lamont was the second person I'd ever even slept with. So I made him go get tested and so did I . I decided that for birth control I would get the Depo-Provera shot. He was right there with me when I got it. We followed all the rules, waited until it was in my system before we had sex the whole nine yards. Then went on with our relationship.

Long story short I got pregnant anyways. We didn't use condoms so when the shot failed me of course we had no back up protection." Sherica said taking a deep breath."

At first I was so upset that I did want to have an abortion but I just couldn't do it Jevon."

Sherica said her voice growing soft.

" Lamont said he understood,loved me and we'd be a family. Unbeknownst to me though, he'd already started cheating on me. That didn't take long to come to light."

Sherica said.

"So did you end things with him then?" Jevon asked.

" I mean at that point Jevon, I did some pretty typical things. Break-up,make-up and al that sil y mess. Lamont just got wild though. Got another girl pregnant as well. So of course I got myself tested again for every STD there is and cal ed it quits. I had my family and my friends and went through my pregnancy alone basically. His mom and sister were there for me because I'd gotten close to them before I was pregnant but he's never been about shit concerning our son Isiah." Sherica said angrily. " I mean I told you already, I’ve only gone on occasional dates the last three years" Sherica said laughing.

" My son is only three, so that's his entire life we haven't been together. So if your wondering if there would ever be any drama with my sons father I don't anticipate any because he's never been around. The times we have talked and he's come by supposedly to see Isiah, the minute he got here all he did was talk about me and how good I'm looking and all that bul shit. So I'd just make him leave." Sherica said.

" In all honesty Jevon, any hang ups I have are about me and the lessons I had to learn by myself being a single mother. I mean to me, I wasn't trying to get myself pregnant, I wasn't being irresponsible and I thought I was in a committed relationship.

Even though I know it happens all the time... it will never feel right to me that a person could just turn their back on their child. Regardless of the relationship between the parents, yet people do every day. It's a tough pill to swallow that the person that you created a child with wants nothing to do with him but that's the reality of my situation.

Isiah is at the age where he's asking questions. So everyday I'm dealing with new aspects of this and trying to do and say the right things so that my son is never hurt again by any actions I make." Sherica said with a sigh.

" So...what are you thinking?" Sherica asked practical y holding her breath.

" I'm thinking I can't think of a better person to break my crazy rules for than you."

Jevon said meaning every word.

" Don't get me wrong Sherica, I've done some real dumb shit with women. Even times when I should have walked away to spare a woman's feeling and I didn't because I felt like I told her straight up so she had a choice. Tyson gets on me about it all the time."

Jevon said laughing.

"One thing I have never done though, is date a woman with kids. Not because I thought she wasn't good enough or that kids were a hassle but because if things didn't work out, I really didn't want to mess up anyone's kids or leave them thinking they did something wrong as to why I wasn't around anymore. So I've just stuck to that. I want to try with you though. I mean if you want to try with me." Jevon said looking at Sherica.

" Oh you wanna try this out on my son and fuck my kid up huh?" Sherica asked.

"No! That's not what I meant." Jevon said quickly before he realized Sherica was laughing at him.

" I know what you meant Jevon. I feel the same way. I haven't dated anyone either really. I went on a couple dates but none of them made it past the third date with me."

Sherica said. " Men make so many assumptions about us single mothers it's crazy! One guy came over to pick me up and couldn't stop commenting about how nice and clean it was. Like he was amazed he could see the damn floor. I was
too
offended! What just because I'm a single mother my place is supposed to be dirty and nasty? Women that are nasty and don't clean are the same way
with
a man!" Sherica said rolling her eyes.

" Or they're in too much of a damn hurry to get over here. Thinking because I'm a single mother I want
any
man over here."

" So Sherica you mean to tell me in three years you aint been with a man?" Jevon asked shocked.

" Oh I see you all in my shit tonight detective! I'll tell you though...no Jevon I have not had sex since my son was conceived basical y." Sherica said all of a sudden a little embarrassed about just how long she'd been celibate.

" So imma be the first person you make love to huh?" Jevon said licking his lips

" No. I told you Lamont was the second person I ever had sex with." Sherica said correcting him.

" You're not listening to what I'm saying to you baby. I said
I'm
going to be the first person you
make love
to." Jevon said more directly.

" You have to be in love to make love Jevon." Sherica said softly.

" Right now I'm not feeling like that's going to be a problem Sherica."

The Morning After

Darien opened his eyes and found himself wrapped up with Kita,oddly enough he didn't mind the fact he'd accidentally stayed the night. Kita and Darien had sexed each other every which way but Sunday!

Kita turned Darien on with how sexually adventurous she was. Asking him to do things to her most women wouldn't let a man do unless they were in a relationship! Who ever taught Kita her sex game taught her damn well. If I
ever
get a chance to meet this guy I'm giving him his props as teacher. Darien thought to himself. Kita stirred underneath him and open her eyes and stretched smiling at him.

" Damn you were exactly what I needed last night." Kita said raising up." You were so good I don't even mind the fact you stayed over."
