Now without further adieu let's get back to the story.
Erykah's POV
Jason and Erykah sat in front of Jazmine's house in Jason's grey sports car.
Jason dressed in black leather jeans and a red t-shirt with red & white Nikes. And Erykah wearing matching high waisted leather pants, Jason's red team jersey tied in the back to expose her midriff, and matching Nikes. Her hair half up half down.
"Don't think because I'm letting you and your friends come to this party I forgot about that little stunt you played earlier with that nigga Caesar. You need to tell your friends what we do behind closed doors is our business not there's. Do you hear me?" Jason said in a harsh tone. His fingertips drumming on the steering wheel.
Erykah looked down into her lap "Yes"
"Look at me when I'm fucking talking to you Bitch!" Jason roughly grabbed her neck jerking her face towards him. "Stop Jason you're hurting me." Erykah cried gasping for air. Jason let go of his death grip and used that aggregation to grip the steering wheel tightly.
"I'm sorry" He mumbled. "I know" Erykah whispered softly rubbing her already bruised neck.
"I didn't mean it" He looked at her with fire in his eyes. Erykah always made it a habit of not looking into his eyes it was like what Erykah invised looking at the soul of the devil felt like.
"You never mean it" Erykah replied weakly trying to figure out how she was going to hide this new bruise from her friends.
"Kiss me" Jason demanded pushing his face towards hers to get a kiss. Erykah gave into his demand and gave him a slow kiss on his lips sensually. The kiss got more intense and Erykah slipped her tongue in his mouth tasting his bittersweet tongue, climbing onto his lap being careful not to press on the steering wheel, and immediately felt his warm manhood poking her.
She slide her hands under his t-shirt running her nails up and down his chest while Jason squeezed her ass through her leather pants.
Erykah moaned loudly when he reached up to suck on her neck while grabbing her hips forcefully to grind her into him.
Right when Erykah was getting into it Jason broke the lip lock "Text your friend."
Erykah climbed off him sitting back into the passenger seat and pulled out her phone to text Jazmine to let her know they were outside.
Jazmine's POV
"Mom! Have you seen my diamond earrings!?" Jazmine exclaimed from in her bedroom. She was almost finished getting ready- well she had already taken a shower, styled her hair, pir on light makeup, and put on her jewelry. She just had to put on her outfit.
She was currently wearing her robe "Uh yeah I borrowed them last Thursday" Sarah answered as she was passing her bedroom with a laundry basket full of clean clothes.
"Well where are they I've been looking all over for them?" Jazmine asked closing her jewelry box.
"Um... I think I left them at boss's house I'll ask if he's seen them" Her Mom said leaning against her Jazmine's bedroom door frame.
Her boss's house... What the-
"What were you doing at your boss's house, isn't that kinda unprofessional?" Jazmine asked suspiciously.
"It's not when he invites you for dinner. His house is quite lovely actually."
"Cool. But why didn't he invite Me and Daddy? Fam gotta eat too Mom" Jazmine said trying to figure out what earring she was going to where.
Sarah sighed putting down the laundry basket. "It was short notice and you know your father never has time for us being the selfish, inconsiderate bastard he is, at work all the time. He Doesn't have time for his own family so why would he have time to have a sit down dinner with my boss?"
"He tries Mom. I bet it's hard to manage being a full time prosecutor and taking care of a family" Jazmine said defending her daddy before walking into her closet to get her outfit.
"Whatever. Enough about your father I can't even go there right now. Hurry up and get dressed I want to see you" Sarah said grabbing the laundry basket and heading towards her and Tom's room.
After getting dressed Jazmine checked herself out in full length mirror, looking for any imperfections her mother was bound to point out.
She was wearing a light pink spaghetti strap corset crop top and matching maxi skirt, 5 inch tan peep toe heels.
Sarah was a "classic" woman. Her mother (Jazmine's Grandma) raised her to use her body to get what she wanted. And Sarah had followed the same traditions teaching Jazmine to use her body, show skin, and be that woman that catches every man's eye. She said to channel her inner Marilyn Monroe.
Tom said he didn't want Jazmine to be viewed as a sex symbol for men. Especially at her age. But Sarah always corrected him and plays the 'you don't know what it's like being a woman living in a man's world' card.
Jazmine still didn't understand how her Mother fooled people into thinking she was happy all the time and Ms. Betty Crocker but it was not the truth. Sarah was going through something.
For example she acts so sweet and happy during Sunday dinners at the Freeman's and then when she gets home she turns into a hateful person.
Then again Sarah always said 'a lady changes her personality when she is in public versus when she is at home.'
But Jazmine just thought that means you have Bipolar disorder.
"Jazmine come here, I said let me look at you!" Sarah yelled from her bedroom. Jazmine flinched at the tone and walked slowly inside her room waiting for the negativity.
Her Mom was sitting up in her bed folding what appeared to be just her laundry.
"Oh no no no... What is this the 60's hike that skirt up. We need to work on that stomach of yours and your breasts don't worry about that your mother didn't get boobs until last year with Dr. Watts. We'll just make an appointment with him after your father wins his next case" She said nonchalantly folding a silk blouse Jazmine never seen before.
"But Mom... I like my body and I've been working out and eating right and-"
Sarah laughed "Eating right my ass... I seen those ice cream wrappers in the garbage... Jazmine what do I always tell you"
"Beauty is sacrifice" Jazmine recited.
"Yes... Now turn around" Sarah said putting down the sweater she was about to fold.
Jazmine did so giving her mom a full view of her outfit. "Mom... Do you think it may be a little too tight?"
"No Marilyn Monroe herself that your clothes should be tight enough to to show you're a woman but loose enough to show you are a lady... What's the occasion anyway?" Sarah asked.
"Erykah's boyfriend's college friends are throwing a party"
"Ooo a college party... I remember my first college party... I met a guy there he was so handsome we danced until everyone left... And then he lead me up to his dorm room and he touched me and caressed me and he explored every inch of my-" Jazmine interrupted her blunt mother.
"Whoa whoa let's stop there. Erykah just texted me her and Jason are outside so... I'll be back around midnight" Jazmine said already walking down the staircase.
"Yeah... Don't come home pregnant!" Sarah yelled.
"I won't!" Jazmine called back closing the front door.
Sade's POV
Sade sat quiet and still in her queen sized bed with the cover up to her chin as she heard Caesar's footsteps come closer. Her Mom was at work as usual. She had two full time job as a nurse practitioner at the local hospital and security guard. Because her mom wasn't to present in the household and Sade's father walked out on them when she was little. Caesar was her consistent "parent" and father figure. He always made sure she was taken care of, took her shopping, made her dinner, and even grounded her when she did something bad which was rare. It only happened when it had something to do with Jazmine, Cindy, and/ or Erykah.
Sade closed her eyes tightly when her bedroom door creaked open. A few moments later she heard her door shut and Caesar's bedroom door close.
Sade jumped out of bed fully dressed wearing a floral off the shoulder long sleeve white dress with orange, purple, and yellow flowers. Her hair in a curly poofy ponytail, light makeup, and orange sandals.
She quickly grabbed her cell phone, purse and left her room quietly tiptoeing past her brothers bedroom. Sade jumped when she heard his door open and quickly ran down the stairs out the back door.
Whooo that was close
She placed her hand to her fast beating chest. Her heart had just turned back to normal...
Beep! Beep!
A car appeared right in front of her. Jason's car. Almost giving her a heart attack.
I knew I couldn't stand that fool
Jason rolled down his tinted passenger window and Erykah stuck her head out the car. "Hey Sister you look cute get in the car let's go!" She exclaimed.
Sade looked back towards her house noticing how all the lights were still off "shhh be quiet Caesar's right upstairs"
Erykah chuckled "Girl get yo ass in the car ain't nobody afraid of Michael" Sade smiled nervously "okay but when we get caught I'm ratting you all out"
"We'll take that Sade now get in before we're late" Jazmine said before Sade got into Jason's car and he sped off.
"Aren't we getting Cindy?" Sade asked Erykah and Jazmine. "No" Jason said sternly.
Erykah rolled her eyes "He means yes you know how him and Cindy are"
Sade nodded her head. Jason cannot stand Cindy and vise versa. They can't even be in the same area without altercations. Since both Jason and Cindy have that need to be in control they butt heads a lot. And Cindy simply does not think Jason is a good guy and doesn't want Erykah dating him.
"Yeah like remember the time we went ice skating and Cindy tied his skates together and Jason fell right on his butt. I'm not a big fan of watching people get hurt but that was some funny stuff. I think Riley still has the video" Jazmine laughed causing Erykah and Sade to start joining in laughter.
Jason griped the steering wheel roughly and sent Erykah a glare Sade couldn't read because she was sitting directly behind him but it caused her to stop laughing and sit back in her seat. Jazmine and Sade sent each other looks that said 'What was that?'
The rest of the ride to Cindy's was quiet and Sade couldn't sworn she saw Erykah swipe her left eye but she didn't know so she didn't say anything.
When they pulled up to Cindy's mansion she was already outside wearing her hair straight down to her butt, high waisted white ripped jeans, a Chicago Bulls crop top, a Chicago Bulls SnapBack to the back, and black Jordan's.
She rolled her eyes when she saw Jason in the front seat. "Ew Mama why you still dating this clown?" Cindy asked already getting started.
Jason was about to say something but Erykah stopped him "Because I love him and he's my daddy" She gently turned Jason's chin to give him a slow French kiss. Sade swore she saw Jason bite her tongue on purpose.
Maybe it's a freaky fetish kind of thing
"Ewww PDA!" Jazmine giggled. "Does that answer your question inside out Oreo" Jason smirked.
"Whatever" Cindy mugged him but got in the car nevertheless with Jazmine sitting in the middle before Jason drove off.
"Sup sexy mamas, and Bitch ass nigga" Cindy greeted everyone in the car.
"Hi Cindy" Erykah, Jazmine, and Sade said giving Cindy a look reminding her to at least try and be nice.
"Oh what I don't a get a Hi nigga" Cindy told Jason with an attitude. "Hi Hoe." Jason snickered.
"Uh huh don't make me fuck you up. You lucky I just got my nails done or I been done took off on yo ass while you driving bitch." Cindy spat.
"Wait, Since when does Cindy McPherson get her nails done?" Erykah asked. "Ooo let us see" Jazmine pleaded pulling Cindy's hand towards her and Sade. They were cute, a simple French manicure on her natural long nails.
"Don't get used to them my annoying ass Mama is making me do modeling. I swear she's trying to live her life through me." Cindy rolled her eyes.
"Ha! Cindy modeling that's funny what you gone be a playboy bunny. I'm glad your Mom has finally come to terms with you being a hoe" Jason laughed.
"Jason!" Erykah exclaimed.
"Nah it's alright he ain't gone be laughing when I knock out all his teeth one by one" Cindy said surprisingly calm.
"Yeah and you ass ain't gone be talking when I fucking drive this bitch off the Woodcrest bridge and you in the middle of the Ocean." Jason snapped back.
"Okay you know what you guys need to shut the hell up sit back and relax! I've had a long fucking day I'm ready to have fun. I didn't sneak out the house to hear you two go back and forth over dumb shit! Now calm down, get your life together, and If I hear one more goddamn word I'm jumping in the driver's seat and driving this mother fucker off a Cliff! Am I understood?" Sade snapped.
Everyone knows Sade is a sweetheart and is very soft spoken but when she gets pissed off she will go off and you shouldn't cross her when it happens.
"Yes Ma'am" Jason and Cindy said quickly at same time. Jazmine rubbed Sade's arm calming her down while Jason quickly parked in front of the house where the party was. "Thank You... Now let's party!"She smiled getting out of the car.
Jazmine's POV
'What on earth did I get myself into'
When they walked into the party the room was packed with Wild College kids. There were people grinding on each other to the beat of the loud music, people making out in all corners of the room, a couple of people were throwing up, and a crowd of people surrounding the bar watching a drunk chubby guys chug down beer.
Jazmine was grossed out. She should've just stayed home and watched the reruns of A Different World on Netflix.
"Aye Kyle what's up man. I want you meet my Girlfriend!" Jason said pulling Erykah with him towards a group college looking guys who Jazmine inferred where the men Jason played basketball with.
"Yo I'm trying to get some tequila so I'mma have to ditch you good girls" Cindy said breaking away from Jazmine and Sade.
"We feel the love" Jazmine said sarcastically.
"Ya'll know I love y'all but I'm bouts to get my drank on" Cindy chuckled walking over to the bar.
Jazmine and Sade just stood in the corner of the room looking out of place.
"Alright! This next song goes out to all my niggas who love to party!" The DJ said in to the microphone as the intro to the song played.
You a bad girl and your friends bad too, oh
She got the swag sauce, she drippin' swagu
You a bad girl and your friends bad too, oh
she got the swag sauce, she drippin' swagu
"Ooo Jazzy this is my song!" Sade exclaimed. Two attractive black boys who appeared to be twins came up to them. The first one spoke "It's ours too boo. I'm Damien and this is my brother Devon Y'all wanna dance?"
"Sure" Sade smiled reaching to take his hand. But he stopped her "My brother was feeling you, I'm trying to get to know green eyed girl right here" Damien said smiling at Jazmine. She gave him a polite smile.
This boy is cute mmmm maybe this party isn't half bad but I'm watching if he tries any funny crap "Let's dance" She said leading him to the dance floor next to Sade and Devon.
I may be young, but I'm ready
To give you all my love
I told my girls you can get it
Don't slow it down, just let it go
Jazmine turned around so her body around so her butt was on his crotch and her arms around his neck. She did a sexy body roll as Damien held her hips tightly. "Damn Baby what you mixed or something?" Jazmine giggled "Bingo, now shut up and dance" She turned around and continued to dance with the boy.
'Cause we like to party-y-y-y-y-y-y
'Cause we like to party-y-y-y-y-y-y
'Cause we like to party
Jazmine moved her arms from side to side to everyone on the dance floor. While Her and Damien were grinding to the beat. They continued to dance like that until the end of the song and another one came on. Jazmine broke away from the hold Damien had on her hips.
"Nice dance." Jazmine said turning to walk away but he pulled her back into him.
"Wait I never got your name"
"Jazmine"
Damien licked his lips "Jazmine... Figures... Mmm how would you like to see my dorm room? It's back on campus about a mile away."
"Uh I don't know I came here with my friends they'd be mad if I just left them here" Jazmine said oblivious to the fact the boy wanted to do more than show her his room.
"It doesn't look like they'd even miss you look." He said gesturing to Sade with her head on Devon's chest slow dancing, Erykah and Jason talking to some basketball people, and Cindy chugging her 9th shot of tequila.
"Come on Jazmine I really want you to see my room. Don't worry you're safe with me" He said gently caressing Jazmine's thighs.
Jazmine being the trusting innocent girl she is nods her head and smiles "Sure"
"OVER MY FUCKING DEAD BODY!"
