- Meiko "Boys With Girlfriends"
The-sister's* boyfriend's brother [SBB]. we clicked instantly. he opened up to me so i felt comfortable. i generally spot the
we spoke about his situation. we've had three barbecues, this year, and his daughter's mother/girlfriend hasn't attended any. i asked if everything was cool. i already had the scoop, from The-sister*, so, technically, i was just confirming what i already knew.
typical relationship woes. they love each other but, after years of drama, they're basically on their last life line. she moved back with her parents, the middle of last year, and he's been living alone since. they're trying to work it out - all his words. not mine.
he really got deep. shocked me for a second. i mean, we've always been cool but this was different. i opened up a little too. got into detail with my two previous situations (Mr. Right Turned Wrong and Mr. Situation). i was on the brink of tears so i cooled it. he understood.
later on that night, everything had settled and we were cleaning up. it was about one a.m and everyone had gone home. it was the sister's boyfriend, SBB, their other brother, the sister, and myself. The-sister's* boyfriend brought out the cards for spades. i'm the only one who can't play so, with my cup in hand, i just watched. surprisingly, we still had a few bottles left so i was more than good.
we flirted. i was dead wrong but, fuck it, i was tipsy. i didn't think anyone noticed until i peeped The-sister* watching me. this heifer never misses a beat i thought. she threw me a "cool it, bitch" glare and i shot her a "mind ya' business and watch ya' hand" one back. she rolled her eyes, threw down whatever she threw down, and grabbed her team's book. it was the normal bestfriend looking out for bestfriend thing we have. i understood.
it was about three in the morning and the game was done. everyone was ready to hit their sacks. the sister grabbed her boyfriend's car keys and asked me if i was ready. SBB jumped in offering to drive me home instead. he didn't even finish his sentence before The-sister* shot him down. he tried to reason with her saying that he was heading in my direction. we all knew that was a lie. he lives in yonkers so i'm definitely out of his way.
she was silent for a second and then asked me what i wanted to do. i could see she was tired so i pointed that out. i said it would be fine and, jokingly, told her to go tend to her man. she smirked knowing me all too well. we hugged, whispered "fast ass"/"cock blocker" to one another, laughed and i headed for the door.
the ride was pretty much silent. whatever little talking done was done by him. i was too busy thinking. my head was spinning. i was trying to figure out how i should end this night. if i listened to "the kitty" then i knew there would be consequences. we had plenty of barbecues, lined up for the summer, and i knew i wasn't in for dealing with the awkwardness. on the other hand, "the kitty" was purring like a motha'. i was weighing my options.
we pulled up in front of my building and there was complete silence. i watched him watch me. i had on this short khaki "safari" shirt dress. he traced my thighs right on up to my cleavage and then we locked eyes. he was being obvious with his and it made me tingle. i gave all 6'2 of him a once over. his brown skin, tattoos, nice arms, toned legs - everything.
my imaginary x-ray vision was just about to get a clear picture, of what i was hoping to be underneath his basketball shorts, until he broke my trance. he rested his hand on my thigh and asked me if he could walk me in. i paused. reality hit and somewhere, in the mist of triple X rated thoughts, i came to my senses.
i've made too many jacked up choices in the past. a situation like this could only get ugly and i'm trying to stray away from the drama. not only that but my old/new hunnie, RT, started blowing up my phone. i took that as a sign telling me to raise my ass up out of his jeep. i kissed him on the cheek, thanked him for the ride and told him to have a good night.
boy, how i've grown...
[even though i feel like this story hasn't ended...]

it's always refreshing to know that women think the same thing that we think sometimes. although i think most guys would have done the thinking with the little head instead of the big head. lol.
Kudos to you for not taking it a step further!! Chiiiile--- i know it took a lot!
