his slacks.
âYou mean looking for you, not us ,â I shot back angrily.
I knew this wasnât how love was supposed to be. I was sexually frustrated and felt emotionally distanced from someone I wanted to give myself to in every way. After Trey left, I rinsed out my mouth, put on my clothes, fixed my hair back into a tight bun, and returned to the table. When I did, there was a totally different vibe. To my surprise, Rico was seated on one of those plastic lined dining room chairs holding a square piece of cornbread in his right hand. I gulped and tried not to panic.
âWe said grace without you because you took so long,â Mabel said in a hostile tone.
I ignored her gastric bypass needing ass because I was caught off guard by Ricoâs stunt. I sat nestled in between my man and my piece of forbidden fruit. From the moment I took my seat,, things got a whole lot hotter. I trembled inside and knew I wouldnât be able to eat with Rico in my personal space.
After I made my plate, Rico began copping a feel on my legs with his left hand while he ate with his right. Quick brushes turned into him lifting my skirt and rubbing steadily between my thighs until I grew sticky. I wanted to moan, grab him, and beg him to take me higher, but my hands were tied. When he began kicking my chair I came up with a plan.
âTrey, I feel ill.â
âIf you need a ride, Iâll take you home Leslie. Itâs not everyday that Trey gets to eat his mommaâs good cooking,â Rico responded quickly.
âYou okay, Les?â Trey asked with concern.
âIâll be okay, baby. I just need to lay down in the comfort of my own place. If itâs okay with you, Iâll take Rico up on his offer so you can spend time with your family.â
âThanks, man. Call me when you get home, Les,â Trey said.
I couldnât believe he would allow another man to take me home. Suddenly, I felt justified for wanting Rico to change my oil, since my own man could let me slip way so easily, especially knowing I was feeling horny and insulted. No one else said goodbye, and I was headed out the door with Rico, who was as smooth as butter.

Mr. Right Now
A s soon as we drove away, I began unleashing my frustration on Rico. I was angry that Trey announced weâd be going from sparse sex to none at all . . . at least until our big day.
âAre you crazy, showing up like that and doing that shit under the table!â I screamed in Ricoâs ear with hostility. When he smirked I truly felt like slapping him silly.
âYou ran across my mind, and I care about your needs. I wanted to see you . . . you know you want some more of this.â He smelled good, and I hated him for it. My anger was beginning to transform into lust. âHow could you stay away so long, when I was the one who set your body free? I thought you were in need of sexual healing . . . how amazing,â Rico said. He was oozing with cockiness and sex appeal and made my defenses melt.
âItâs only been a few days. I let you hit it one time, and you think youâve got it like that? I slept with you because youâre close to Trey, and I was angry at him for neglecting me, not because of anything else. So stop smothering a sister âcause she gave you a little bit,â I said, playing it off. Rico was a tough act to follow but he didnât need to know how my thankful body was already craving another orgasm, another session of slam, bam, thank Rico the fuck buddy man.
âI do have it like that. Youâre full of shitâyou know youâd rather be with me. Iâm taking you for a nice, long ride so you can relax and fix that bad attitude of yours,â he said, pressing the button to put the top down on his sea green convertible BMW.
Rico used a remote control to crank a rap tune, and I crossed my arms. As the wind gently caressed my face, Rico kept looking over in my direction. He took a back way
