The beautiful trans women/persons from POSE on FX

          After my righthand nigga Loko got himself locked up, I found myself in need of a new nigga to fill that important position. I had fifteen niggas working for me and out of that fifteen, only one was reliable enough to be my number two. His name was Meek and he was just as loyal to me as Loko had been. The only problem was I couldn’t tell if he would be down to fulfill all of Loko’s duties. While I had all my niggas out on the streets giving the fiends what they needed, I could only trust one nigga with my money and the business, and the only way I knew I could have all of his trust was to submit him to the prison code. The prison code meant just what it sounded like: he had to become my bitch behind closed doors.

          “None of y’all niggas gettin’ hit up right now?” I asked the five who’d shown up that day.

          “Nope,” they all answered.

          “Shit, y’all ain’t gettin’ paid then. I’m not payin’ y’all to sit around and play 2K17 all fuckin’ day.”

          They all shrugged their shoulders and put their focus back on the videogame. I gave Meek a look as I shook my head and sat down on the sofa. I stared at him as he pulled out a long blunt and lit it up. My dick started to grow hard as I focused on his ass. He was sagging so that ass was looking right in the pair of blue boxer briefs he was wearing. I’d been wanted to make him my lieutenant so I could fuck him but it was hard to tell if he was that hungry for the position. It took Loko less than a day to take the promotion and suck my dick, and a week later I fucked him for the first time.

          For me, it wasn’t just about the sex. It was about the power and the amount of loyalty I could gain from that sort of arrangement. How could a dude betray me if he’s sucking my dick and letting me fuck him knowing I’d put the word out if he were to betray me? I wasn’t the one sucking dick and getting fucked in my ass, so I could regain my standing quicker than the nigga who was sucking me and getting fucked by me. As unfair and fucked up as that sounds, it’s just the truth.

          “Yo Meek,” I said to him. “Let me talk to you for a second in my room.”

          “Okay,” he said as he passed his blunt to Trigga, one of the other niggas who worked for me. He then stood up and followed me into my room.

          I closed and locked the door before picking up a blunt I’d rolled earlier and lighting it. I took a hit from it before asking him, “You good, bruh?”

          He laughed a little as he replied, “Yeah, I’m good.” His smile faded as he asked me, “Yo, I didn’t do some shit to piss you off, did I? Because if I did…”

          “Nah, we good, my dude. I just need to talk to you about some shit I’ve been thinkin’ about.”

          “A’ight. What’s good, Marz?”

          I sat down on my bed and asked, “How would you like to make more money?”

                                                   Me (Marz)

          It was spring break and instead of going home to my boring ass neighborhood in Cleveland, I decided to go to Sacramento to spend the week with my friend Maliah and her family. I’d been friends with Maliah since we met during the summer at freshman orientation at Ohio State University, and we became close friends over the course of our freshman year. I’d changed a lot since turning eighteen away at college hundreds of miles away from home. I’d gotten my first tattoo and a few piercings, and I’d finally had a few sexual experiences. I was still a virgin but I’d sucked dick twice and had my ass eaten once. Little did I know, I’d have my next experience while spending the week at Maliah’s house.

          “What’s up with your brother?” I asked Maliah as we got ready for bed. “He looks at me weird all the time.”

          “Don’t pay Derwin any mind,” she said while wrapping her hair up. “He’s just weird in general.”

          “What do you mean?”

          “All of his friends are white and he only dates pale ass white bitches.”

          “Oh no, he’s not one of those niggas who diss black women, is he?”

          “No, he doesn’t do all that. But he’s still weird as fuck.”

          “I think he’s kinda cute.”

          “Ew, bitch don’t even!” She laughed and playfully hit me with one of her pillows. “Derwin is like an alien in our family. You’ve seen how pro-black my parents are and you’ve been around me this whole school year, so you know I’m black as fuck. For whatever reason, Derwin loves being around white people all the time. We’ve just grown to accept it.”

          “Damn.”

          Maliah’s family was the complete opposite of my family. My mama, dad and brothers literally walk on eggshells around me because I’m gay. Maliah’s family were already used to having gay guys in their house because most of Maliah’s friends were gay, so they knew how to be themselves around me and it felt welcoming. However, there was something up with Derwin that I couldn’t put my finger on. I was still relatively new at reading people I didn’t know, so I didn’t know what to even pay attention to.

          “I’m gonna go brush my teeth,” I told Maliah as I grabbed my toothbrush container and toothpaste from my duffle bag.

                                                   Me (Amari)

          “I’m gonna go brush my teeth,” I told Maliah as I grabbed my toothbrush container and toothpaste from my duffle bag.

          “Alright,” she said back as she stood from her bed. “I need to brush mine, too. You can use my brother’s bathroom on his end of the hall if you don’t wanna wait on me.”

          “Okay.”
