3. You Know What You're Doing.
________________________
Thursday came and went so fast, it actually made me dread Friday. Who in their right mind would dread a Friday?
This girl right here because that meant it was my date with Loso. He is still merely a stranger, yet I agreed to go on a date with him. That makes all the sense in the world according to my twisted mind.
Sitting in class for an extended period of time was too overrated. I was lost in lectures, my eyes focusing on the clock then quickly back to the board, giving me headaches from such quick transitions.
"Alright class, remember to study. You have your part 1 of your final, the written portion next Wednesday. Have a good weekend and I'll see you on Monday." My teacher said as he waved us goodbye.
I wonder where we're going to go? Somewhere high end? Somewhere low key? When are we going? There was so much going on in my cluttered mind. Oooh, what was he going to be wearing-
"Miss Jackson, is there something you need?" My teacher asked, breaking me from my thoughts.
"Oh! No I don't, I'm sorry. I was just really lost in my thoughts." I said as I scrambled to pick up my things and stack them neatly. The last thing I need is for all my stuff to fall out of my hands as I raced out of my classroom.
"No worries. Just making sure, have a nice weekend." He smiled one last time before walking back to his desk. I finally walked out of the classroom and made my way to my car.
I set my stuff down on the passenger seat and put my key in the ignition but my car wouldn't start. Why is my car not starting? It's a brand new car, well maybe close to a year old but still.
"Oh you're kidding me right now." I said with a frustrated sigh. I tried again but my car wouldn't start. "Just start-"
"Need some help?" I nearly jumped a mile in my seat as his voice filled my ears.
"How'd you even know I was here?" I pulled my key out and looked up at Loso. His dark skin reminded me of smooth chocolate, it had me wanting to just lick his skin- Oh my God. What the hell is wrong with me? "Are you stalking me or are you going to tell me that it was coincidental?" I snapped glaring up at him.
"You need help? And a homie of mine goes here. I didn't think you did too. I saw your car from mine and decided to say aye." He said ignoring my rudeness. I wonder, who's his homie?
"Oh, well to answer your first question, Yes I do need help." He motioned for me to hop out of the car and he took my seat.
"You know you can always sit right back on my lap." He said with a daunting wink. That one action sent a chill down my body. Really body? It wasn't that appealing of a gesture.
"I'm fine standing." Mainly because I know if I sit in his lap, he won't let me get up. I watched him put the key in the ignition and sure enough the car came to life.
Just wow.
I see my car is picking favorites now and I'm not one of them.
"Your car's good to go." He smirked as he hopped out. "So why ain't you hit me up yet?"
"Because... I don't know." I said with a shrug of my shoulders. I'd be lying if I said it was weird seeing him outside of where I work.
"Well then since we're both here, let's go out now? I 'ont feel like waiting another couple hours unless you want to just go out to dinner. If that's the case, I'ma need your number." Either way I'm screwed over. If we go now, I look terrible. I'm in shorts and a tank top, looking like I just rolled out of bed and threw whatever I saw on... Which was actually true. Sexy huh? But if I wait till later, I'm gonna have to text him and that means he gets my number. I saw that smirk like he knew exactly what I was thinking.
"We'll go out to dinner." I finally said.
"Good, I wanna take you somewhere nice so be sure to dress up. Not to mention you look good in something other than your show outfits." He whispered the last part to me as he kissed my cheek. "Bye Candy."
"Bye Loso and thank you." My cheeks did the thing they shouldn't do around him. Blush. Hard.
"Hit me up now or I'm comin' for that ass." He called out with a laugh. I rolled my eyes and got in my car, heading home.
I got home and first needed to get as much as my homework done so I don't end up worrying about it on my date. Call me a nerd, but I like getting good grades and I want to be out of college as soon as I can.
I felt my phone vibrating and saw it was my Dad calling. A smile appeared on my face and I answered it immediately.
"Hey Dad."
"Hey Ebony, how are you? I'm sorry for not calling you sooner."
"It's fine, I've actually been pretty busy lately. How are you?"
"I'm still sorry. I'm alright. How's school going?"
"It's going good. I'm doing homework now. How's work?"
"Oh, well then I'll let you go so you can focus. We'll talk a little later when you're free. I have a surprise for you."
"Why would you tell me you have a surprise-"
"Bye Ebony." He laughed before he hung up. That's just all kinds of messed right there. Now I want to know what the damn surprise is.
I stared at my phone and the piece of paper with his number on it. I pulled the paper closer to me and decided to just text him.
Here we go.
3:57 p.m. -Me: Hey Loso, It's Candy.
Instantly I heard my phone vibrate and saw it was him already... Wow, talk about a fast response.
3:58 p.m. -Loso: Been waiting for this number for a while. So can you be ready by 7? I made reservations for that time.
4:01 p.m. -Me: Yes I can. Where are we going?
4:02 p.m. -Loso: Now why would I tell you that?
What the hell. Just tell me the name of the place, instead of playing games.
4:03 p.m. -Me: You're impossible. I'll text you when I finish getting ready.
4:04 p.m. -Loso: aight, talk to you then.
I set my phone back down and dug right into my homework. All I have to say is; fuck the bitch who decided homework should be "a thing" for students.

I just finished curling my hair and added the final touches of my makeup. One of the best perks about being an exotic dancer is all the tips and tricks you learn to make your makeup look like it was done by a professional. I didn't have a lot on, it was more like bare colors and a little bit of a light smokey eye.
I had on my outfit, !which was just a black mid-thigh strapless dress, black pumps with bows around my ankles, and a gold accented chain. I still felt like I was too over dressed. Maybe I could- and then I heard knocking on my door.
"God dammit." I hissed under my tongue as I grabbed my clutch off the kitchen table and opened the door.
"Ooh shit. I said look nice, not sexy." He said as he bit his lip and let his eyes scan me from head to toe, with the look of satisfaction clear on his face.
"Thank you. You look really good too." He had on a deep burgundy button down, I'm assuming True's, a thick cuban gold chain, diamond studs, and Air Force Ones. For such a simple outfit, he wore it all too good. Why can he wear something so simple, yet it still looks very clean cut and nice? That's not fair.
"You know I do. Let's go." He grabbed my hand and led me out of my apartment, closing the door behind me. I carefully walked down the stairs, the last thing I need to do is trip and fall. I i reached the bottom to just stop and stare when I was greeted by an all black Maybach parked in the parking lot.
"Is that really your car?" I looked at the chromed rims in awe as they stood out against the metallic black paint of the car.
"You think I drive around in little toy cars? Nah I got expensive taste." He opened the door and I slid right into the comfortable seats. The beautiful interior left me speechless. "I can tell you like it a lot."
"It's a beautiful car and I never expected you to have such a car like this." I said still taking in the fact I was actually sitting in a Maybach.
"I got a lot of bank, might as well start spending some of it." Easy for him to say. "So Candy, when do I get to know your name?"
"When I get to know yours." I shot back. I saw him smile a little as he relaxed more into his seat.
"I can't tell you that till I know for sure you won't run and snitch to the feds."
"I already told you I won't."
"I need to make sure because once they got my name, I'm locked up for a while and that means I have to be away from you." I had an instant nervous feeling travel all the way down my spine and around to my stomach.
"Well I'd come visit you." I said in a slightly teasing tone that had him shift his eyes over to me for a quick second.
"You would huh? No lie?"
"Yes I would." The remaining car ride was quiet and peaceful. We had a little more small talk but when we pulled up to the restaurant it looked really high end... Like a glass of water might cost $100 - type - of - high end.
We walked in and it was huge. My heels against the pure black marble floors and the gold chandeliers that hung all the way from the second story. Was this place new? I don't even know the name- I didn't even know there was a place like this.
"Reservations for Loso." He said snapping me out of my expensive thoughts.
The waiter nodded his head and led us upstairs and to a table. I looked at the menu I was presented with and let me just say... damn. I'm reading about food I didn't even know was actually considered food.
Why on Earth would be bring us to such a fancy place? This place is the kind you bring your fiancé to the night before your wedding. I was starting to feel a little overwhelmed by just thinking about it, that's how extravagant it was.
"Excuse me for a second. I need to use the bathroom." I said as I stood up and looked till I found the direction of the bathroom. I was feeling really nervous all of a sudden but I don't really understand why? Maybe this was all a bad idea?
I was thankful when I walked in and saw there was no one else there. I set my clutch on the counter and ran some cold water and dabbed a little on my face, careful not to mess up my makeup.
After a few minutes of trying to calm my nerves down, I was startled when I heard the door open. God Dammit. But the lock clicked too. Um.. why?
"You alright?" I heard Loso's voice echo throughout my ears as he grabbed onto my waist from behind. It caused me to flinch a little bit and now my nerves were running wild just after trying to calm them down. "You look a little tense." He turned me around so I was facing him. He surprised me by picking me up and setting me down on the counter.
"I'm good." I said trying not to sound as nervous as I was. It didn't help that we were in the bathroom, alone. He was so close to me and with the door locked-
"You sure?" I felt him place his hand on the inside of my thigh and rub small circles. He spread my legs apart enough, just so he could be standing between them.
"Positive." I felt him pick up my chin with his other hand. I stared into his eyes and saw a little spark in them.
"So this right now, doesn't make you nervous?" I felt him slide his hand higher up my thigh. I had like a burning, aching type of feeling that I wish would go away right about now.
I shook my head. I know if I said anything, every indication of nervousness would be too obvious and I know that's what he wants to hear. I bit down on my tongue and my eyes took in a good look at the man in front of me.
Once I caught a glance at those lips, I was more than focused. They looked so juicy and then of course his facial hair around it, made him in general look really good.
"You do realize you're really wet right?" He said lowly next to my neck in between his soft kisses. It was after he told me that, that I felt him rubbing along my panties. Oh God, why was I not pushing him away? Why was I just sitting here on the counter being a lustful whore and letting him, Loso, touch me like how he was.
"Not till you just told me." I struggled to say back. He was kissing up my jaw line till he just barely brushed passed my lips.
"You want me huh?" Yes I do- Oh my God. Bad Ebony, no you don't want him, his ass is just making you want him because he knows what he's doing... Which feels really good.
He gently kissed me and eventually he bit down on my bottom lip, my lust filled self gave into his temptation. I felt him slip one finger in me which made me jump a little.
"Relax, you're too uptight." He said before returning back to my lips. This was all so wrong but it felt too good to want to stop. I felt him slide in another finger and I was about ready to just explode, if that made any sense.
"Losooo..." I managed to moan against his lips as he rubbed my pearl with his thumb. This was a feeling I'd never felt before, like ever and it was driving me wild.
"Shh we're in a bathroom Candy." He said with a small chuckle before he started to push his fingers deeper in me and speed up his pumping. I felt like a build up feeling as he continued. "Cum for me Candy." He said as he kissed my neck. I wasn't even paying as much as a cent worth of attention to what he had to saying, all I know was, I was feeling too much pleasure.
In an instant I felt a release and I just laid back against the mirror. I was struggling to catch my breath as I lay there in my own world of complete ecstasy.
"I'll see you at the table." He said as he kissed me one last time before walking about of the bathroom. I heard him unlock the door and then the door close.
What just happened?
After about a minute I hopped off the counter and I swear I feel hot everywhere and every little thing I touch gives me a tingly feeling. Why was I feeling like this? What the hell did he do to me?
I grabbed my clutch and walked out of the bathroom, walking as best I could over to the table. It felt so refreshing to feel the cool air against my skin, well not against my core. That again was feeling too good. I need to take my mind off of that.
"You look more relaxed." He said with a satisfied smirk as he sat back in his chair.
"You would know." I said as I looked back down at the menu. I wanted to avoid his eye contact as much as possible for the time being.
"That's how you need to be. By the way you're really sweet." Oh my. I'm over here trying to calm myself down from whatever the hell just happened and he just has to tell me that?
"I don't want to know how I taste."
"I wasn't talkin' about that. I was talkin' about your personality." He said with a smirk and a seductive glare. To think my cheeks would not be able to blush anymore, I felt that burning feeling that came with my embarrassment.

"Thank you so much for dinner Loso." I said as he walked me to my apartment door.
"You're welcome Candy. When can we hang out next?" He wrapped his arms around my waist. He's been touchy ever since our 'rendez-vous' in the bathroom.
"I don't know, but we'll stay in contact." I said as I played with his chain.
"Look up at me." He said. I looked up and saw a smile on his face. "You're so beautiful. I'll hit you up tomorrow." He closed the space between us with a gentle kiss before letting me go and walking back down to his Maybach.
I walked inside and closed the door. I just leaned my back up against it and sank down to the floor, letting out a deep breath.
That was all bad. Everything that happened on this date, wasn't ever supposed to happen... But I'm a little glad it did.
I woke up the next morning feeling a lot better than usual. I still had some excitement left over in me from last night and I even noticed I had a text from Loso from about an hour ago.
8:35 a.m. -Loso: Good Morning Candy, hit me up when you're down to hang again (:
I smiled a little at the text before getting out of bed and dragging myself to the shower to get changed and head into town for a little bit. I could use some time to go shopping, maybe I could get Bella to come, but I'm sure she's too busy with her man.
After getting dressed and presentable to the public, I grabbed my purse and decided to take a walk down to the coffee shop down at the corner of the drive for some breakfast. I usually enjoy cooking but this morning I felt like a warm vanilla scone and a caramel latte.
It was a little chilly outside but that regreshing-morning chilly. I walked inside the coffee shop after the short walk and was greeted with the eye opening smell of coffee beans. There wasn't much of a line so I was able to get my things and take a seat at one of the tall tables with the tall chairs. I liked feeling high up.
Biting into the warm scone and feeling it fall apart on my tongue only made me want to scarf down more so it'd crash into my stomach. This simple breakfast treat had me smiling like a baby who was reunited with their teddy bear.
I felt a soft kiss planted on my cheek and an arm wrap around me before I took another bite. "Aye Candy." Loso said with a small laugh.
"That's now two times. I'm convinced you're stalking me." I said shaking off his arm and taking my second bite.
"My Ma wanted me to pick up coffee for her on the way to her house. She lives in that brown house right on Cedar Lane." He said taking a seat next to me. "It's completely coincidental Candy, not much I can say." He shrugged. He had a solid black beanie , pulled down to just about his eyebrows, a pair of chains and grey sweatshirt.
"I'm sure of it." I said rolling my eyes. "Do you always wear chains?" I asked.
"Mhm. That's just my thing, never wear the same chain twice in one month." He smiled. The barista called out a number and he stood up. "Excuse me a sec, while I get this." I nodded my head as I took a sip of my hot coffee.
He returned back with the coffee and sat in the seat.
"Shouldn't you be getting that coffee to your Mom, you know, while it's hot?" I rose a brow.
"It's just coffee, she can just re-heat it if she's that desperate for a hot coffee." I noticed a girl walk in who hadn't shifted her gaze once from Loso. "What's bothering you?" He asked.
"Nothing. I was just waiting to see how long it took you to notice that one girl staring hard at you." I said with a small laugh.
"I already knew she was the second her car pulled up in the parking lot. I notice everything Candy." Is that so? Well then can you notice the fact things are too coincidental with us?
"And you haven't done anything about it?"
"She can take a picture if she wants. I don't mind, I'm talkin' to you right now so she can go on with herself." He said keeping his eyes glued to mine.
"You know you have 2 different colored eyes, right?" I asked looking at them more.
"Yup. My left is a medium brown and my right is a brownish-hazel. Lord didn't know which color looked sexier on me, so he gave me both." He said with a laugh, which left me shaking my head slightly.
"You're really something else, I hand you that."
"That's what I'm told. I'd like to kick it with you longer but I actually got some business to deal with." He standing up and fixing his black jeans. "I'll see you later." He walked up to me and went to give me another kiss but I decided to pull away before his lips had the chance to touch my cheek.
"Bye Loso." I chuckled.
"So this is the game you wanna play huh?" He smirked. "Just know you're gon' lose Miss Candy." He grabbed his Mom's coffee and left the coffee shop.
