lips. His little chubby hands wrapped around it and he went to town.
“Don't hold him back too far or the milk will drain in his ears. He gets a lot of ear infections and shit. The doctors said that's part of it,” Jock tossed out before sitting next to me.
He watched me handling his son with a grin on his face. I kept my eyes on the baby because he was so damn cute laying up in my arms.
We sat there not saying anything with Jahari sucking on his bottle the only sound in the room until Jock’s voice drowned it out.
“We’re not together, if that’s what you’re thinking.”
My eyes met Jock’s briefly before they focused on his son again. “I’m not thinking anything. Like I said, it's not my business.” My words were hard, but I was smiling inside.
“What the fuck ever. You care, so don't act like you don't.” Jock chuckled. “She was a one time deal, and I hate that shit. I love my son, but I can't fuck with her like that, so don't go thinking I’ve been lying to you.”
“Lying to me about what, Jock?”
“I told you I’m not with anybody, and I mean that shit, Kiz.”
“Man, please. You got hoes, Jock. I’m not stupid.”
“Do I fuck other females? Hell yeah, why wouldn't I? You got that lame ass nigga, and I have needs, but I’m not with anybody, Kiz. So don't go thinking that. That's all I'm saying.”
I bit into my lip, trying to hide my smile before I took the bottle from Jahari and held him against my shoulder to burp him. I wasn't in love with the idea of Jock being with other women, even if I did have Red, but the fact that he always made a point of trying to convince me that they didn’t mean anything to him put me at ease just a little.
“That’s a good look for you, Kiz, but only if it was my seed. Not that weak ass muthafucker you with.”
I sucked my teeth and cut my eyes at him. “Well, you don't have to worry about that either way because this is as close as I'm getting to anybody’s seed. Yours or his. I don’t want kids.”
“Well you better rethink that plan cause you’re having mine when you get your head right, and I put that on everything.”
“You sound crazy as hell right now, Jock. Here, take this baby.” I shoved Jahari toward Jock.
He took him into his arms and laughed at me. “I ain't crazy, Kiz, just confident.”
I shook my head and sighed. He could be as confident as he wanted, but there won’t be any babies coming out of me, and that was my word, so Jock could take it or leave it.

“Why you keep looking at that piece of shit watch?” Siah teased, which made me suck my teeth.
“It's not a piece of shit, and you bought it, so—”
Siah smiled and lifted his glass to his mouth. I watched his sexy ass lips as they connected with it, and my body shivered with memories of his lips on me.
“It is a piece of shit, Pretty. I only bought it because you asked me to. It's not what I would have chosen.”
I looked at my wrist again and smiled at my new watch. It was cute to me. Simple, but still cute. Siah was trying to get me some overpriced watch that would have gotten me robbed. His logic behind it was that it was an investment. Siah purchased expensive things, but mostly things that held value. It wasn't like he spent stupid money, well not all the time, but when it came to his cars and jewelry, he invested in items that held value. I didn't care too much about that. I just liked what I liked.
“Well, I like it, so stop talking about it.”
Siah reached for my hand. Once he had it, he brought my wrist to his mouth and kissed the inside of it. His action made me blush a little before he inspected the watch on my wrist and then shrugged.
“If you like it, I love it.” He smiled at me before releasing my wrist. “But it's still a piece of shit.”
Before I could say anything, Siah’s phone went off and he leaned back to pull it out of his pocket. He glanced at the screen before his eyes connected with mine and he
