The next day
" what you said his name was again " Scotty asked over the phone she was sitting home they didn't work today neither because saint wanted the paint to dry completely before he opened up again
" his name is rome " ava said as she lifted him putting him in the camera
Scotty chuckled as she pressed the cats face into the screen ava was like a child to him so bubbly & full of energy
" aw ok what you plan on doing today "
" idk I was just going to sit home & play with my cat "
" nah let me take you out tonight I know this nice ass soul food restaurant " Scotty said as he got out of bed throwing on a white t-shirt & some blue jeans
" ok I'll be dressed send me the address & I'll meet you there " ava said as she hung up
•••
" what you ordering " Scotty asked as he looked over at ava he didn't need to look at the menu he was familiar with the place his aunt owned it
Looking at the menu everything looked so good but ava decided that she was going to have Mac & cheese , white rice & oxtails
" I'm going to have the oxtail plate " she said as she set the menu down & waited for the waitress to come to their table
After they ordered ava sat & looked around the restaurant she smiled when she saw that it was all black people & some were couples
She loved being around her people & she loved black love
She was knocked out of her thoughts when she saw rich & Monica walk pass her hand in hand
Atleast he's taking her to dinner she thought
" so you work at a strip club " Scotty asked confused the few weeks they were talking they never asked each other about their place of work
Ava didn't look like the type to strip
" yeah but I'm not a stripper I'm just a bartender " she said as she scooped up some of her Mac & cheese putting it in her mouth
" aw ok well I work at cvs " Scotty joked
He sold drugs but not a lot to where the feds were suspicious he sold enough to where he could afford to pay his bills
He was a corner boy for rich
Rich was currently sitting down enjoying his fried chicken & collard greens as Monica spoke
" are you serious about us or you just want to have sex with me "
" I'm serious bout you " rich spoke as he looked around the restaurant avoiding eye contact with Monica he was definitely lying he just wanted returning pussy
He furrowed his eyebrows as he spotted ava & Scotty one of his corner boys he was wondering what she was doing with a dude like him
He knew Scotty was kind of rough around the edges he fucked bitches & had a Bad mouth on him
Ava was smiling & swinging her feet as Scotty said something to her
He shook his head & continued to eat
Monica turned around falling his daze she realized it was ava & instantly got mad
" do you have something going on with that young ass little girl " Monica asked attitude laced in her voice
Rich looked at her like she was crazy even if he did it wasn't Monica's place to question him
" nah I'm not & if I did that ain't yo damn place to ask " rich said as he finished his food he was ready to drop Monica off
" come on let's go " he said as he put the money on the table standing up
Making his way towards the exit he decided to stop at ava & Scotty table
" what you doing here young buck you on dates & shit " rich joked as he dapped Scotty up
" nah nun like dat this my friend " Scotty said as he pointed at ava
Rich didn't miss the sad look ava had on her face from the word friend but she quickly recovered & smiled
" yeah I know the youngin she work at my club " rich said as he nodded
Monica cleared her throat as she stood behind rich she wanted to get out of there she don't know why rich had to speak to them
" my fault this Monica " rich said as he introduced Monica to Scotty
Scotty looked over at Monica giving her a head nod
He could tell she had ass shots she wasn't ugly but she looked like a runner
" Ight Well imma let y'all finish yall date be safe out here " rich said as he left out with Monica following behind him
A few days later
Ava was currently at the club serving drinks today was Rich's birthday he was turning 24
Rich had all his boys there including Scotty they sat around their section as they smoked & got drunk they managed to tell a few jokes from time to time
Ava watched Scotty from a distance she made a stupid decision she let him butter her up to have sex with him
He had took her virginity & started acting weird towards her
Ava blamed herself she knew a guy like him didn't want a relationship but her being so sheltered growing up she didn't have much experience with guys
She thought that since he always took her on dates & paid that she was supposed to have sex with him
Melissa had told her that's not how it works
" hey beautiful " Scotty said as he approached ava Melissa rolled her eyes as ava smiled
" hi Scotty "
" you coming home with me tonight " Scotty asked ava as he leaned over the counter touching her hair
Ava shook her head yes she was naive for Scotty he was her first boyfriend
" but I drive because you're drunk " Scotty nodded his head as he made his way back to the section getting a lap dance from peaches
Peaches knew Scotty was dating ava Scotty had talked about it in the section he even mentioned him taking her virginity
Rich just shook his head he knew ava had messed up with meeting Scotty but he couldn't say anything it was his business or place
Ava watched from the bar as peaches gave Scotty a lap dance she didn't say anything because it was peaches job & plus it was a birthday party she trusted Scotty
Rich glanced over at ava shaking his head he couldn't believe Scotty had her head so gone like that
Getting up rich made his way towards ava
" get the bag " by Gucci ft the migos played throughout the club
( Rest In Peace takeOff )
" wassuh youngin "
Ava looked up at rich simply giving him a head nod he laughed as he seen what ava was doing
Ever since she got with Scotty she had gave every man the cold shoulder she didn't really speak to the guys at the club she would just greet them after that everybody was basically talking to their self
Scotty on the other hand was having a ball with about 4 other bitches ava wasnt his only one but she was his main
Rich only wished that she had met a real man & became like that he knew Scotty wasn't the one for her but he had took her innocence so now her brain was clouded with Scotty
" let me have the regular "
Ava nodded as she made him a henny with lite ice & a little sprite she handed it to him
Rich pulled out a $20 bill handing it to her
Ava thanked him as she stuffed the 20 in the pocket walking away to tend to other customers
The night ended with Melissa leaving with saint
Ava had drove Scotty to her house she knew they were about to have sex she was happy ever since they did it she craved it a lot
Monica had went to a hotel with rich he didn't let anybody know where he stayed unless you were saint
