âyouâre beautiful and your mind is fuckinâ beautiful.â
âyou got everything?â
itâs a question that youâd been asked multiple times since this morning. aaron is standing at the entryway of the bedroom with the most father figure like expression you have ever seen. youâre on your knees folding the last of your items into a large suitcase, checking the nozzles to your skin care products, so nothing can leak out. you experienced that mistake one too many times before.
a three hour and thirty-minute road trip to your parent's home in savannah, georgia and aaron was going to officially meet them today. the thought almost made you vomit. you had no worries on aaronâs endâyou knew how much of a good guy he was and had been, knew that he would remain respectful of you and your loved ones. your parents, though? you werenât so sure. they could be a bit haughty when it came to certain things and you werenât able to gauge how theyâd behave tonight.
there would only be one way to find out.
âi think i do. i packed our pajamas, underclothes, toothbrushesâŚâ youâre listing things off but somethingâs missing. youâre forgetting something.
âyou got everything for your hair? bonnet? mousse? whatever the hell else you use.â
âyeah, itâs all in there. do you have anything you want to add to the bag, itâs still plenty of room.â
âi think i got everything. wish i could bring my playstation, though.â
it makes you snort. him and that system were practically attached. âanyway. help me carry this heavy thing to the car, please.â
aaron pushes away from the wall and joins you on the floor to fully close the suitcase and wheel it outside, you both walk the through the small hallway of your condominium home. after two years together, a shared college graduation and career paths that allowed you to live closer, you and aaron decided to move in with one another. it only made sense. youâd spent most of your time at aaronâs place, so much so that stacey practically lived alone. she didnât mind one bit, fully able to bring her girlfriend over whenever she pleased.
a one-bedroom condo not far from where the both of you worked. it took a small amount of adjusting as you both grew up only children. you enjoyed the comfort of you and aaronâs home. he allowed you to decorate, knowing you wouldnât stop begging if he hadnât, but you didnât go too far. your taste changed through the years and while you still enjoyed sanrio decor and trinkets, you decided to keep them at a minimum when it came to the living room and kitchen space. opting for modern yet cozy furniture with your favorite greenery surrounding.
you and aaron did continue to sleep with a plush kuromi stuffie every night, though.
that you refused to give up.
aaron has all of your luggage set in the trunk of his dodge charger. he stands outside the vehicle while waiting for you, phone in his hand, as he spoke to his best friend trey.
âi know niggas ainât worried,â he laughs on the other end, turning off his hair clippers to look into the camera.
âman, iâm fuckinâ scared shitless,â aaron says it with honesty, shaking his head while trey cackles more.
he hadnât expressed it to you yet, but aaron was worrisome of how your folks would perceive him. he wasnât perfect, but he loved you, wanted to be with you for the rest of his life and he could only hope your parents would see it in yâallâs relationship.
in the span of two years, the four of you had only shared phone calls or messages with each other due to your parent's busy schedule with church and local work. a part of you knew that was factual and the other half knew they didnât think this relationship was worthy of their time. it was harsh, but you were familiar with your parentsâyou knew how dismissive they could be.
âyou gonâ be good. y/nâs parents gonâ love you, i can see it already.â
ânah, bro, this some whole other shit. you know, they the pastors from that mega church down in savannah?â
âcentral faith bapist church?â
âoh, nigga, youâre fucked.â
your parents were well known in the community, being the founders of one of the biggest black churches in georgia. although aaron hadnât attended any of their services, he heard and watched online as they critiqued young men who dressed and behaved as he did.
treyâs laughing again, but the pit in aaronâs stomach refuses to leave. ây/n seem nervous too, she playing it off good though.â
âthose her parents, she already knows what to expect from them.â
aaron watches from afar as you come down the outdoor stairs of the apartment building. âimma call you back, bro.â
you approach the car and place your purse in the front seat. heâs leaning against the vehicle with a nervous grin on his face, watching every move you make.
âwhat were you just doing?â
âyes, you aaron smith. why are you acting so weird?â
you laugh in curiosity, standing before him as he toys with the ends of your curled hair. youâd spent the entire night wand curling and pinning your hair, making sure everything was right for the following day.
âthatâs all i ever want from you, âron.â
he huffs. âiâm nervous, bae. iâm scared your folks wonât like me. i donât want them thinking i turned their daughter out. got her messing around with a bad boy and shit.â
âaaron,â youâre smiling with a small laugh on your lips. âitâs going to be fine. iâm nervous too, if that makes you feel any better.â
you nod. âjust a bit, but i know youâll make a great impression on them. theyâre strict, but youâre a genuine person and i think thatâs all thatâll matter to them.â
he couldnât fathom the fact he made it this far. aaron wouldnât have believed a single soul if theyâd told him heâd be settled down with the girl of his dreams. meeting her parents? and actually being nervous about it? aaron couldnât remember the last time his stomach turned at an upcoming event, but everyday spent with you made him feel that way. you kept him on edge but also calmed him. made his racing heart slow down with each slow blink from your pretty eyes.
aaron was scared out of his mind, but heâd cross any obstacle ten times over if it meant heâd meet you at the finish line.
âcome on, bad boy, we gotta get going,â you tease, patting his stomach before walking over to your side of the car.
âyou love this bad boy shit.â
âi do,â you purr, leaning over the console to kiss him once heâs settled into the driver seat. âa bad boy turning a good girl out? maybe they wonât be too mad at it.â
you had no clue how the ride to savannah was, as you slept the entire time.
gentle taps and calls of your name are the only reason you awake when you do. the vehicle is parked directly in front of a familiar long paved driveway. the georgia sun was still high in the sky, meaning it hadnât gotten too late.
you stretch, being careful not to rub your face, as you were wearing makeup. âyou ready, aaron?â
âready as iâll ever be,â he chuckles. âyou ready?â
âready as iâll ever be.â
âyou think we should smoke real quick?â
âiâm playing, iâm playing.â
you exit once aaron opens your car door, helping you out before grabbing the gifts for your parents. you walk hand and hand to the front porch of the modern ranch style house. youâd grown up here and were used to the massive land, but aaron seemed a little more surprised.
âthis fucking houseâŚâ
ââron, no cursing, remember?â
he covers his mouth as if it could make him stop. âshit, my bad. shitââ
âaaron!â you whisper yell, trying to help him cease the foul language. âbaby, control it, please.â
you donât even get a chance to ring the doorbell, as the heavy oak door swings open before the both of you. you yelp in surprise, but the sight of your father brings you to.
âdaddy!â you squeal and jump into a big hug with him, laughing in excitement when his deep chuckle rumbles on your face. âiâve missed you, so much, daddy.â
you were super close to your father. a daddyâs girl through and through. he was your best friend, the first person to show you how a man should treat you. he didnât know it, but your father reminded you so much of aaron. both headstrong men, who were well respected by others. their careers differed, but their characteristics were similar.
âi missed you more, babygirl,â your father takes in the beautiful view of you before turning to aaron who continues to stand at the front door with a smile as he watches the charming father daughter moment.
âaaron,â he extends his large hand and aaron rushes to shake it. ânice to finally meet you in person, young man.â
âsame here, sir. itâs an honor to be meeting a man like you.â
the thick mustache above your fatherâs lip curls upward at aaronâs words and you already know how this thing is about to go. âyou all brought gifts?â
aaron looks down at the dark blue gift bag in his hand. âuh, yes. something for both you and mrs. a.â
âwell, come on in, letâs get the both of you settled and see whatâs in that bag.â
aaron enters the home and you walk beside him, following behind your father as he guides the both of you through the house.
âdaddy, you and mom changed the couches?â
the three of you walk past the living room quarters and the new decor immediately caught your attention. you hadnât been home in some time, but you remembered the furniture in the house previously.
âyou know your mother,â he chuckles. âshe canât let the house set for weeks without wanting to change something.â
the home was still magnificent. dark cognac l-shaped sectional sofas, matching tufted ottomans and faux fur pillows and area rugs. pictures of your family hung high over the fireplace.
everyoneâs feet continued to shuffle until youâre all in the kitchen, where your mother works away at the stove.
âkaty, your daughter is here.â
it captures your mother's distracted attention, immediately turning away from the hot stove to greet you.
âbabygirl,â she beams, drying her hands off on a printed hand towel before rushing to embrace you. âoh, my, how iâve missed you, doll.â
âmissed you too, mommy,â you peck her soft check. âsay âhiâ to aaron, mom.â
and she doesnât say it upon request, instead taking a second to look over your boyfriend while he tightly smiles.
ânice to meet you, aaron. good to finally see you in the flesh.â
âyes, pleasure to meet you, maâam.â
he sticks out his hand, but your mother brushes it to the side, pulling him into a hug instead. âwe southern, boy, give me a hug.â
itâs one of those older black women hugs and aaron canât refuse it, chuckling behind her head as she squeezes him.
aaron can see it. can see how you have both of your parents features. your momâs endearing eyes, gentle voice and aura mixed with the moles and marks you father had scattered over his face and arms. he can also see how they created such a lovely young woman. someone so kind and caring due to the calm environment sheâd been raised in.
âmy goodness, you are tall, aaron. i did not expect that. whatâs your height, love?â
âi believe iâm 6â5, last time i checked.â
her mouth is wide as she laughs. âha! heâs taller than you, stan.â
âma,â you chuckle, rubbing your dadâs shoulder. âleave him alone.â
your father was about six feet, but aaron definitely stood a few inches over him.
âyeah, yeah, letâs see if he can handle a propane grill. come on, young man, we outside.â
youâre taking a few steps to aaron, holding his hand as you speak. âare you gonna be okay?â
âyeah, iâll be good. mr. a got me,â he smiles.
you nod, letting his hand go, watching from the kitchen counter as he and your father exit out the side patio door.
âheâs handsome,â the tease in your mother's voice, is what makes you shift. âyou got a good eye, just like your momma.â
âmomma, please,â you laugh, shaking your head and crossing into the kitchen to wash your hands at the sink. âwhat do you need help with?â
you scan over the stove and watch as pots of covered food boils and bubbles, gifting you a delicious aroma of burned cinnamon, melty cheese and smoked turkey parts.
âiâm actually almost done, doll, but you can set the table for me. pull out the good silverware and then get some glasses from the cabinet. i made your favorite sweet tea for dinner tonight.â
you listened, accustomed to setting the table for previous sunday dinners. you fold table handkerchiefs and set them neatly before each seat at the table.
âoh, wow. you werenât playing, huh?â
katherine laughs, the tight curls from her natural hair bouncing as she moves. âhey, i just wanted to make a good impression for the guests.â
âiâm not mad at you, maâam, do your thing.â
the nostalgic sound of pots and metal spoons clanking together sounds throughout the kitchen and dining room while the both of you tend to your tasks.
âsoâŚâ katherine sings and you know how nosy your mother could be. âhow are you liking things? how is it having a lilâ boyfriend now?â
âwhy do you and daddy call everything lil?â
âi mean yâall are younger than us, so we view you all as little, but donât try to shift subjects, missy. i asked you a question.â
youâre searching through the drawer to collect perfectly shined dinner utensils as your thoughts float off to the last two years spent with aaron.
âitâs been wonderful, mom. i honestly canât complain. aaron is real sweet, heâs a great person, truly.â
âhe treats you right?â
âmore than right. aaron treats me like a princess, he makes me feel like the only girl in the world.â
she hums, shaking some black pepper into the steaming pot. âthatâs nice to hear. how is it with you two living together? is he messy like your father is?â
âactually, he isnât. aaron might be more of a neat freak than me. he has us on a routine for who cleans what throughout the week.â
katherine laughs. âso you hit the jackpot, is what iâm hearing. perfect height, gentleman and he keeps the house clean?â
and you really did. no couple was flawlessâyou and aaron both had moments of stress when it came to the other, but you both made sure to come together at the end of the day to have a reasonable conversation. communication was a major aspect in your relationship. aaron didnât believe in going to bed mad at each other. while you were more conflict avoidant, aaron made it his duty to converse of what troubles transpired between you two. he forced you to be honest with him.
âin a wayâyeah, i did.â
you watch from the marble dining table as aaron and your father work on the smoking grill. he seemed to be okay. your father didnât look as if he were putting him through the ringer.
âhow you eat your steaks aaron?â
âum, well done, maybe. i not a big steak fan, sir,â aaron laughs nervously as stanley flips a hunky piece of t-bone steak on the seasoned grill. theyâre standing on the side of your family home, watching as the grill burns and smokes, wafting the delicious seared steak and husked corn.
âwell done?â he asks incredulously. âyou must like eating leather shoes in your spare time as well.â
stanley laughs so rambunctiously, it actually makes aaron jump. his nerves were on fire right now. he knew the reverend of the local georgia church wouldnât cause harm, but the thought of him fucking something up was what weighed on his chest.
âyou drink, young man?â
aaron doesnât know if thatâs a question he should answer truthfully. the pastor drank? âum-â
âbeer? do you drink beer, aaron?â
he didnât, but if it would calm his nerves some, aaron was more than willing. âyeah, yes, i do.â
âlook in the cooler over there and grab two miller lites.â
aaron listens, opening the red igloo cooler to a twelve pack of beers tucked underneath a bag of ice. aaron fishes for two and hands the other to mr. a. he cracks open the lid on his and takes a quick sip, continuing to turn the steaks, before he speaks again.
âyou know youâre the first boy my daughter has ever brought home?â
âyou know how serious something like that is? sheâs in her mid twenties and i have never even heard her speak on another guy. that is, until youâaaron smith came along. youâre all my babygirl talks about,â it causes aaron to smile, mind drifting off to you. âso i wonder what makes you so special. what makes you different from the rest of the cats out there?â
and aaron wants to laugh at the old school lingo your father uses, but he swallows the laugh down, quickly clearing his throat as he formed an answer.
âto be fair with you, mr. a, there ainât much. iâm just like any other young man you may know. i have my flawsâiâm nowhere near perfect, but i do love y/n. i love her more than i love myself at times if iâm being honestâbut she makes me search for that love, makes me feel like iâm worth it. i donât take the care she has for me lightly. i understand just how privileged i am to be with a woman like her.â
that was aaronâs testimony. it wasnât easy to say to your father as theyâd just met today, but aaron could only be truthful. it still got to him sometimesâthe luck bestowed upon him to have a girl like you in his life. a true ray of sunshine, beaming to help him grow to his full potential. your mind, your heart and overall being were the epitome of beauty.
âmhm,â stanley grunts. âyou rehearsed that answer, boy?â
aaron snorts. âstraight from the dome, sir.â
the sliding glass door of the patio clicked close as your father and aaron emerge from the other side. you smile and aaron raises his eyebrows at you, holding a tray of charred cobbed corn in his hands.
âyou can set it on the table over here, aaron.â
he listens to your mother and sets the hot tray down, turning back to you when heâs done. âyou good, ladybug?â
youâre leaning into his chest and heâs caressing your back, fingers pinching at a roll on your side.
ââron,â you groan, pulling away. âyou always do that.â
itâs not intentional. aaron just couldnât keep hands off you. you were so soft and lush all over. his hands always found a way to touch on you no matter what.
âyou two are adorable,â katherine brushes past again, gathering the rest of the dinner items. you back away from aaron shyly, not wanting to display such affection in front of your mother. âi see you guys matching and all.â
ây/n picked out our outfits.â
aaron wore a black collared shirt with a white long sleeve underneath, while you wore a pink button up and black blouse. you were going for something casual but cute at the same time. you didnât want to exactly match, but leaned towards something in similarity.
âyou would think with an outfit like that, y/n would put on some pants to cover up some,â katherine laughs and shakes her head.
she says it like a joke, but you knew she meant it. you loved your mother, but she could be so judgey at times. making comments on your size, clothing and personal decisions. they bothered you more when you were younger, but you were an adult now and whatever choice you made, she would have to live with.
you donât have a chance to give a response because aaron is already speaking on your behalf. âitâs still warm out, mrs. a. you know georgia weather, hot one day and raining the next.â
he chuckles and your mother agrees, starting up another conversation about the current climate, while aaron winks over at you. he had your back no matter what.
the dining room becomes filled as four bodies join at the table to hold hands in prayer. all heads are bowed and stanley speaks before everyone.
âfather god, we want to thank you for this delicious dinner, we are about to receive. we ask that you allow this food to nourish our bodies. we ask for you to bless the beings that prepared this meal and for you to keep your hands over everyone sitting at this table tonight. in jesus name, we pray, amen.â
âamen,â you all respond in unity.
ânow, everyone, dig in. please help yourselves to whatever your heart desires.â
the array of food is otherworldly. fried chicken, collard greens, baked mac and cheese, candied yams. you could go on and on. you missed a nice home cooked meal from your parents, used to cooking for yourself or aaronâs attempt at dinner which mostly consisted of frozen chicken nuggets and white rice.
âdo you want me to make your plate, aaron?â
you offer because he was the guest in your parent's home. it seemed like the proper thing to do, but aaron refused.
âiâm good, babe. make your plate.â
you can feel both katherine and stanleyâs eyes on you and aaron, watching as you two interact. they were taking down mental notes.
âhow are things going at your school, y/n?â
you scoop some greens onto your plate before answering your motherâs question.
âitâs been great. iâm beginning to build a relationship with the students, theyâve started to open up to me more.â
âthatâs nice. how is the salary, are you able to take care of all your finances? because you know how they pay teachers out this way, itâs close to nothing.â
your career as a school counselor was rewarding in every sense. after obtaining your degree in english, you were in a position to help middle school students navigate their complex feelings during turbulent times in their lives. youâd always been a very insightful person, able to read others emotions well and give advice you thought was best. kids, though? it wasnât exactly a cakewalk in the beginning. preteens were tougher, they held a harder shell than adults with all the growing hormones and stuff. but through promotional school flyers, sit downs during lunch and meeting with them at their level you were able to gain a rapport with the 11-14 year olds, allowing them to confide in you for guidance.
âthe pay is good. i can handle my big girl responsibilities and still have something for myself on the side.â
you decided against telling your parents about you and aaronâs financial splits. he paid portions to certain things and let you help out whenever. he was firm on him paying the big bills. it was best to keep some things to yourself, as it kept your relationship with aaron strong.
âhow about you, aaron?â pastor stanley asks, speaking up for the first time in a while. he cut into his steak and bit a piece from his fork, awaiting an answer from your boyfriend.
âyou got your degree in gaming, right?â
aaron swallows a glassful of katherineâs sweetened lemonade tea.
ânot quite gaming, sir. iâm a software engineer. i develop, run tests and design software systems. iâm freelancing right now, but i work with companies who hire me for a certain amount of time.â
aaron was smart, calculated. in both his profession and in socialization. you watched as he spoke with your father and it gave confirmation that youâd picked the right man to be in a relationship with. he knew how to turn it on and off. knew how to make a good impression, while remaining true to himself.
aaronâs love of technology led to his current career. he made a decent amount of money with each job he took on, no longer reliant on selling weed and working at a tech store, but instead focusing solely on making money from a full time position. heâd always excelled in school and found the work to be rather easy. becoming a software engineer was just another skill he collected along the way.
something had to change. your parents had been asking questions all night. it was now your turn to pry into their lives.
âdaddy, howâs things at the church? everything going well?â
âbusiness as usual. you know how it goes. youâd be able to see things first hand if you attended service, you know.â
you shrug, collecting some syrupy yams onto your fork. âi can only watch the live videos right now, daddy. iâm still swamped with work and my everyday life.â
ây/n,â he shakes his head, wiping his mouth with a napkin. âthere should be no such thing as too busy for the lord. he makes a way for you, you should do the same for him.â
itâs reminiscent of when you were a child and wanted to hang out with friends, but were instead forced to attend bible study after school.
âthe lord knows my heart, daddy. he sees how busy i am.â
your response earns a grunt of disapproval from your father and a small chuckle from aaron. the table grows eerily quiet and all eyes shift towards your boyfriend.
âsomething funny, aaron?â
and itâs as if aaron didnât realize heâd made a remark. he looks around the room confusedly.
âsomething funny?â your father repeats, elbows on the table. âi thought i heard you say something.â
âdaddy-â you try to interject, but aaron interrupts.
ânothingâs funny, i justâi just find it kind of crazy that we put so much on one person.â
âwho? on my daughter or on the lord?â
aaron shakes his head, preferring not to get into a debate with your father. âforget i said anything, mr.a.â
âno, no, no, weâre talking, weâre having a conversation. please finish your sentence.â
youâre silently pleading with aaron to not say anything else, wide eyes and a serious look on your face. you knew how far this conversation would go. your father was deeply devoted to god and was willing to go to bat with anyone who disagreed with his sentiments.
aaron sat up straighter. âboth, sir. both your daughter and the lord.â
âplease explain further, iâm intrigued to hear what you have to say.â
âstanley, let it go. not tonight, honey.â katherine holds on to her husbandâs folded hand and hopes heâll walk away from this battle, but his vision is focused on aaron.
âi just think y/n works hard. she stays after school to help with children that arenât hers, helps her friends whenever they need her, and still finds time to maintain our home. if she canât attend church every so often, it shouldnât be held against her so strongly, but thatâs just my opinion, sir.â
your father chuckles. quick and airless. âmy daughter is well aware of her obligations with the lord. sheâs grown up in a household where church is first priorityâanything else comes immediately after. no job, associate or lil boyfriend is going to change that.â
there was that word again.
âlil boyfriend?â aaron snorts. âalright, mr. a. you got it. forget i said anything.â
you only exhale for a second, thankful that they were letting this argument go, but your father speaks again and any relief you felt quickly vanished.
âlet me ask you, aaron, what is your relationship with god like? do you believe that there is a higher power, young man?â
you prayed aaron wouldnât respond and would instead finish eating the crunchy chicken your mother fried.
you shouldâve known better.
âi donât believe in a god, sir.â
those words held enough strength to make the entire foundation of your familyâs house crumble.
âstanley,â your mother calls.
âthere it is! you donât believe so you want my daughter to follow in your footsteps.â
âdaddy, stop, please,â your voice is useless compared to the bass of these two men.
âi donât make y/n do anything that she doesnât want to. i donât feel the need to control her, sheâs a grown woman with her own identity.â
aaron wasnât lying. not once did he make you feel less than for believing in a god. he hadnât grown up the same way you had, but aaron never judged.
he had it a bit rougher. raised by a single black father who instilled beliefs that differed from yours. it hardened him. he didnât have a motherly touch to soften the blow of this cruel world, which led to him not following in a faith of a god. he was unconvinced in all the mumbo jumbo of a lengthy man made book. he held his perception of what religion was.
âitâs funny,â your father's cadence is similar to the one used when he stood at the churchâs pulpit. he didnât realize this was home and not sunday serviceâthat you all were family and not wayward sinners looking for reformation. âbefore you came around, my daughter had plenty of time to attend church, it seems now she wants to keep up with you and your lifestyle.â
âmy lifestyle? what the fuck does that mean?â
aaronâs foul language makes your eardrums ring. it didnât bother you when he cursed at home, but here and now? you were ready to crawl under the kitchen table.
âtake it however you want, young man. i smelled it on you from the moment you walked in here.â
aaronâs smoking dwindled over the years, but you and him still got high whenever work days were stressful. you two worked hard and deserved a little smoke when necessary.
âstanley, you need to cut it out. that is enough now,â your motherâs threats fade into the background as her husband and aaron tussle in a cold stare down.
you donât know what to do, looking between the two most important men in your life as theyâre at odds. so much alike. youâd always said they were similar in nature and standing firm on their words were just one of the many ways they were the same.
âaaron, please. letâs go outside for some air, please.â
he gazes down at you, almost forgetting you were present and that he wasnât in enemy territory. aaron always held up a strong defense. heâd been hurt one too many times in the past and refused to let anyone treat him that way again. but youâŚyou molded this man into putty. he got so delicate when it came to you. heâs so close to snatching you up and storming out of this damn house. unfortunately, itâs the next words your father spills that ends dinner sooner rather than later.
âand you expect me to give approval for a marriage, youâre out of your mind, boy. absolutely not!â
the metal chair aaron sits in slides across the floor with a harsh scrape. he stands tall and glares at your father, heaving hotly with a reddened face and before you know it youâre all standing.
âwhatâchu trynna do? you gonna fight me in my own home? thatâs what you want, aaron?â
âaaron! please, baby, letâs go outside, please!â
aaronâs stone-cold silent. icy eyes burning with rage. you hold onto his arm and try to pull him away, but heâs bigger and stronger than you. itâs nearly impossible.
âaaron, aaron, please listen to me, please.â
youâre on edge, praying no hands get thrown, but itâs aaron who does nothing. unclenching his balled fists, he scoffs at this entire chaotic situation before rushing to make his way out of the house. you tremble in fear as the front door slams shut.
âstanley, you have completely lost your mind!â
âkaty, i do not want to hear it,â he dismisses your mother. âthat boy came into my home and disrespected me. what the hell else do you expect me to do?â
ânot act the way you just did. you oughta be ashamed of yourself.â
katherine exits the room as well, footsteps retreating to the patio for some air. itâs just you and your father in the kitchen now. your heart pounds as youâre completely and utterly heartbroken.
âbabygirl,â he reaches out to touch you, but you donât allow it, pushing his hand away while looking up at him in disbelief. âso youâre mad at me too, huh?â
âdaddy, how could you? how could you treat aaron like that? he-he hasnât done anything to you, yet you acted so cruelly towards him.â
ây/n that boy started with me. he disrespected your father and the lord.â
âheâs not a boy, dad, stop calling him that. aaron is a grown man and you should treat him as such.â
your father smacks his lips, waving a hand as if this conversation were beneath him. âplease.â
âi cannot believe you right now. you know how much i love aaron, and this is how you behave towards him. you treated him like scum on the bottom of your shoe.â
âyou love him?â his eyebrows touch as he frowns. âwhat in the world could you possibly know about love, girl? this is just a silly lil relationship that will pass in the years to come. you and that boy know nothing about love.â
thatâs how he really felt.
any other action provided by him earlier was all for show. thisâthis was your father's true feelings.
âyou still think iâm a child. you still think iâm that little girl who used to run around here, but i am a grown woman, daddy. i know what i want from this life, i know what brings me true happiness and itâs being with aaron. whether you like it or not, i plan on spending the rest of my life with him and iâm not letting you or anyone else stand in the way of it.â
âgirl, you taste so damn sweet, you got me.â
hours past. aaron had taken his car and went on a drive. you couldnât help but be worried as yâall were stationed deep in georgia, these parts werenât the safest at night. youâd been calling and texting his phone all evening, hoping heâd respond in some way, but you received nothing.
your parents were both upstairs in their bedroom. theyâd always been early sleepers. the kitchen was cleaned after a disaster of a dinner and you now lounged in the living room area of your family home. you wanted to be the first to see aaron when he came back. heâd been the fighter in this relationship. heâd been the one to mend any problems you two had, it was now your turn to do the same for him and much to your luck, the front door creaked open, revealing your boyfriend.
the house is dark, with only the table side lamp illuminating his shadowed footsteps. you breathe in, quickly rising from the couch to check on him.
â âron,â your voice is feather-like. â âron, are you okay?â
heâs able to pull a smile, holding your face in the palm of his hand. âyeah, my head is justâitâs been a long day, bug. i ainât mean to leave you and shit, iâm sorry.â
aaron was usually the one to stay and work things out, but he had to get out of this house before things went further than necessary.
âitâs okay. i know that today has been hard on you and i want to apologize for how everything went, you didnât deserve any of that.â
âwhy you apologizing? you ainât start all of this, y/n.â
âi know, itâs justâitâs just i brought you here and i-â he cuts off any blame you may have for yourself.
âyou brought me here to meet your parents, thatâs it, thatâs all. how you supposed to know things would go off like they did.â
a man. even after all that occurred, aaron didnât have anything ill to say. you truly had no words for him right now. the only thing you can do is tuck your head into his chest when he brings you into a hug.
âdo you want to go somewhere else. maybe a hotel or something?â
you werenât sure if he was comfortable staying here after the mess that happened moments ago.
ânah, itâs late as hell. i donât want you outside at this time of night. we gonâ ride it out here.â
âyeah. okay, um, we can probably take the basement?â
you wouldâve bunked in your old bedroom, but it was much too close to your parents and you preferred not to disturb them with running showers and whispered conversations. theyâd been obnoxious all throughout the day, but it didnât mean you had to be an asshole right back.
you lead aaron through the hushed home, trailing downstairs until you reach a closed door.
âyou trynna kill me for messinâ with your dad?â
âshut up,â you roll your eyes, expelling a small giggle. pushing open the door, you turn on a nearby light and display a basement that looked much like a mini house.
itâs decorated modestly. a few pictures of iconic black figures displayed about, a section of leather recliner chairs and a giant flat screen tv mounted to the dark wall.
âitâs the family room, i guess. they havenât had many people spend the night through the years, so iâve been down here a lot.â
aaron helps as you pull the queen-sized murphy bed from itâs chest. you fluff out the blankets and pillows.
âthereâs a bathroom right next door. you wanna shower first, babe?â
âyeah, imma run outside to grab our stuff and then iâm going to hop in.â
the minutes pass as you and aaron prepare for bed. bodies both showered and teeth brushed, now laying next to each other as the distant sound of white noise played on the tv nearby. it was the only remedy to help you sleep, and aaron didnât seem to mind it either.
âi just remembered what i left at home.â
you can feel the rumble of aaronâs chuckle as you lay on his chest. he smelled like dove bar soap and you smelled the same as it was the only wash you packed for your trip down here. âwhat you forget?â
âmy retainers,â you sigh. âiâm supposed to be wearing them every night.â
youâd recently gotten your braces removed and while the hectic and sometimes painful braces experience was over, the tedious task of wearing a retainer quickly came to take place.
âknew you was gonâ forget something. one night shouldnât do too much damage, tho.â
you shift in the bed, leg resting on top of aaronâs as he holds you tighter. âdo you want to talk about it, âron?â
you hear the air he releases. heâs tired and itâs evident in his groggy voice. ânot tonight, bug. i just want to get some rest for now.â
you understood. there would always be tomorrow morning when you could have a debriefing. you try to go to sleep, but the day continues to play around in your head.
âi just want you to know that i love you, aaron,â you sit up from his chest, needing him to know how you truly felt. âi love you, regardless of what anyone else says or thinks. i know what we have and i know exactly who you are. no one can change my mind.â
heâs watching you, arms folded behind his head as you give kind words, healing whatever injuries heâd received from your father and anyone else whoâd hurt him in the past.
aaron doesnât have a response initially, only able to tug on your face to press your mouth to his. once, twice, three times. theyâre small, cute pecks, but he holds your forehead to his when heâs finished.
âi love you too, baby. you donât even know how much i care for you.â
you really didnât. aaron was unable to put the feelings into words.
âdo you think weâre going to hell?â
you made him laugh. âlong as youâre with me, iâll be straight.â
you smile onto his mouth, smooching soft pink lips while a smacking sound emits from the both of you. kissing was one of your favorite things to do with him. aaron was a great kisser, whoâd taught you a thing or two in the process, like slipping in a little tongue during the heat of the moment.
aaron groans and you giggle. âwhatâchu doing?â
âwhat?â youâre playing clueless as you suck on his bottom lip, manicured nails scrapping along his bare, wide thigh.
âaye, donât do that, baby. not here, not right now.â
youâre surprised by his refusal. this nympho was turning you down?
âwe at your parents crib, y/n. they got all these pictures of malcolm x and shit hanging up.â
you pout. âiâm sure malcolm wonât mind.â
âbaby,â he sighs. he wanted you too. there wasnât a time when he didnât, but tonight didnât feel appropriate.
âweâll be quick, just let me get some, âron.â
he canât do anything but stare at you, glaring as you shimmy in the bed, lowering yourself until youâre near his groin area. heâd grown hard beneath gray drawers, wearing only a pair of those, as he hated being fully dressed for bed. while the end of your flower printed nightgown began to rise above your hips as you arched into the air.
heâd deserved it. deserved some head and so much more. your fingers wrap around his clothed dick and you kiss him, holding his length to your gorgeous face. aaronâs lifting from the bed, watching intensely as you tease him.
âyou playinâ. you ainât bout it for real.â
he had no faith in you. the skepticism in his voice is what forces you to go full throttle, pulling his big dick from his underwear without a single rebuttal to follow. you suck him down immediately, opening your mouth fully as he glides down your throat with ease.
youâd gotten better at giving head in the last few years, now able to keep him in your mouth without gagging. aaronâs in shock each time, though. hissing and grabbing at your satin scarf while you stay there constricting around his dick. when you do come up, itâs with a cough and a string of spit following. you used the lubricant your lips created to jerk along his shaft.
âawwâfuck, baby. get that shit, girl.â
heâs encouraging as you stroke him, wrist flicking when your focus on the tip of his dick.
âyouâre so big, aaron.â
you make him groan. gorgeous eyes and puffed lips staring up with endearment, unaware of how much power you possessed over him.
and he was. the room is fairly dim, but you could easily spot this man in a packed out concert. his toned chest, long arms and strong neck all for your viewing as he lay in this bed resembling a sexy male model. his dick deserved itâs own category. caramel bronzed skin along the shaft, protruding veins circling around, while the head of his dick is a muted rose color. the tip leaks with precum each time you remove him from your lips.
youâre taking him down again, giving yourself a chance to breathe as you exhale through your nose some. you keep your mouth around the top half of him while your soft, dainty hands stroke the lower end.
aaronâs reaching out to touch you, extending his hand to smack your raised ass, causing a shock whimper to flow from your mouth. you moan around his dick, moaning out âmmmm, mhm, mhmâ when you feel his fingers tug back the bikini lined panties youâre wearing.
âyou wet as fuck already,â aaron notes the gossamer of slick retracting from the inside of your panties. you created a puddle just from giving him head and the excitement of doing an activity this risky at your parent's place.
the knuckle of his finger nudges against your entrance. heâs teasing you now, giving only a little bit of pleasure as you try to rock back into his touch.
âuhn, uhn, stay right there,â itâs almost a warning.
you come with a wet pop from your lips. ââron, put themâput them in me, baby.â
âyou be rushing. what i tell you âbout that?â
slow and steady was how aaron preferred things. you did as well, but your excitement got in the way sometimes, leading you to believe you could handle more than you actually could. youâd gotten better over the duration of the relationship, able to take him without such a struggle, but there were still times you needed to pace yourself.
âaaron, please, i need you, want you in me.â
he chuckles darkly. âwhich one is it, you need or want it?â
you clench around the smooth side of his finger as he gives you just a tiny bit, thumb now swiping along your slick opening. youâve given up on keeping him in your mouth, much too distracted with your own need. selfish. kittenish kisses all youâre able to give his hardened dick as he continued to throb in your hand.
âboth, baby. want and need you.â
âyou fuckinâ greedy, thatâs why.â
you gasp, mouth drawn upwards when he inserts his long middle finger. âdonât be mean, âron.â
youâre helpless. his little baby. and aaron is unable to deny you, placing his opposite hand on the lower part of your back as his finger fucks you further.
âthat pussy so muthafuckinâ pretty,â he compliments, craning his neck to get a good view of your drenched cunt.
youâre pulsating around his digit, pink folds encasing him completely. like a flower petal or something close to it, youâre holding him tightly. so much so that aaronâs thumb makes it way to your asshole. itâs rough. the friction of his thumb and the tautness of your hole, but it makes you moan out, squeezing around him as both fingers work in unison.
âooh, yes, oh my ââron, just like that, just like that.â
itâs babbles as you moan out, jaw dropped open as you indulge in the feel. youâre practically drooling on his lap as he adds another finger to the mix, sitting up in the bed to push you down more. youâve allowed him to take all control, uselessly gripping his thigh while his fingers piston in and out of you.
âyes, yes, yes,â your voice is hushed, shakily you reach up to cover your mouth as the first orgasm crashes into you. youâre shivering as you climax onto his hand, dribbles of your cum falling onto the sheets while aaron fucks you through it.
he pulls his fingers out once heâs sure youâre entirely finished. aaron tugs you by the back of your nightgown, placing you right before him as he now kneels on the bed.
âsuck it off, taste that shit.â
he doesnât have to repeat the command because instantly your tongue is swirling around his two fingers, moaning in delight as you gaze up at him.
âyou so fuckinâ bad,â itâs a loving tap that aaron sends to your face. serious yet gentle. âyour badass got your folks thinking itâs me. they just donât know.â
he leans down to kiss you, grabbing both sides of your face to make you give duck lips, instantly earning harsh suckles and groans from him as heâs able to taste your pussy on your tongue.
âlove you, baby. love you so much, aaron, youâre all i want.â
âfucking love you too, mama. want you forever, want that pussy forever, donât need shit else.â
he gets so intense when heâs like this. cursing, foul language and actions, but you know that he loves you. you know, this is how aaron is. a gentle giant in every sense of the word.
he forces you to turn away, placing your backside towards him, full ass raised as he puts a helpful arch in your back. condoms weâre no longer apart of the routine. you and aaron actually stopped using them from the day you started. trust and birth control were the only defenses you kept on hand.
âhold that shit. donât move, okay?â
you nod, willing to do whatever he asked of you, awaiting his actions when you feel the tip of his dick prodding at your entrance. it brings the moan you swallowed back to surface when he gives you just that. just the tip, little by little. bumping it into your pussy a small bit before retracting completely.
ââron, donâtâdonât be so mean, baby.â
he ignores you, continuing on with his previous actions. heâs focused and you know it. you canât see him, but youâre sure his light colored eyes are squinted and that lump in his throat is bobbing with every move he makes.
âmhm,â he grunts, answering wordlessly.
âplease move, baby, canât wait anymore.â
âlet it sink in, ma. let it work.â
itâs almost like it happens on itâs own. you donât push back and aaron doesnât pull forward, but you cry out when his dick slips inside, stretching you open in a way you canât forget no matter the situation.
âjust like that, yesss,â your moans flow into the sheets as you hold your head downwards. âaaron, you feel so good, baby, feel so, so good.â
âthatâs you, thatâs this wet ass pussy gripping me,â aaron smacks one of your ass cheeks almost as if he were frustrated. âfucking love being inside you.â
it never got old. the feel of you, your whimpers or the mind-blowing faces you madeâaaron never got enough. he always found something new to try that would bring you close to the edge.
aaron begins to drop his hips, dick sliding into your squelching pussy with slow precision. he loses himself in you, not focusing on anyone or anything else, but youâre well aware. despite the pinned position youâre in, you attempt to keep your voice down.
youâre faceplanted as you moan out, bringing a shaky hand to your chest to squeeze your own tender breasts. âyouâreâyouâre so deep, âron. oh, my godddd.â
âyou fucking taking me, you taking me so good, girl.â
itâs like a drug, almost. you claw helplessly at the sheets for any kind of help, but quickly get distracted. thereâs a noise. far away, but it sounded like someone was moving around upstairs. this house was here before you were even born and it creaked on a constant, but you were sure one of your parents was awake.
ââron, âron, wait, wait, wait,â youâre reaching back to push him away, but aaron snatches your hand, bending your arm away from him as he prevails in the assault of your pussy.
âbaby, baby, i think iâi think i hear something.â
he laughs and itâs at you. âthatâs too fucking bad. you wanted this shit, throw that ass back on me, come on and wet me up.â
âaaron, please,â heâs not letting up, hips smacking your ass with every heavy thrust he makes, keeping rhythm with the flow of your bouncing ass. âoof-ooh my god.â
youâre conflicted. between getting away from him or allowing your boyfriend to continue plowing into you. the hand you used to massage your breasts inches higher and you bring a hand to your mouth, trying to quiet yourself. itâs almost impossible. muffled cries from you, low grunts from aaron and the most obscene, sloppy noise from the both of you.
âyouâyou, âron, iâm-â you canât put the words together, always speechless with every action aaron takes. he knows this, knows how much your breath is taken away when he switches the pace in his strokes.
âyou canât even get that shit out. you so focused on cumming, you canât even speak.â
âyeahhh,â you whine, âget me there âron, want you so badâbadly.â
âyou got me, you know you fuckinâ got me,â he means current and future tense, you were his forever. both of his strong hands press into the lower half of your back while he humps his dick deeper.
you could care less about any noise your parents might hear because the tears forming in the corners of your eyes are a signal youâre about to cum and aaronâs not too far. heâs gone silent, holding the buildup in until he could no longer.
aaron cums first. hips pulling away as the orgasm and you clenching at the same time might be the end of him. his breathing is rough and shallow, tugging on his dick as he spurts his nut on the expanse of your back, holding a wad of your night grown in his closed hand.
you think heâs finished and you start to move around, but aaronâs on your case instantly. he keeps you in position while he knelt before your pussy, placing his face into your cunt to lap at your throbbing clit.
âoh, yesss,â you practically smother yourself when you whine into the mattress. âyes, yes, aaronnn.â
heâs sucking on the nub unforgivingly, wide tongue able to eat at you at once. from your slit down to your clit, aaron laps at all of you until youâre vibrating on his face. youâre seeing stars from how hard you orgasm, riding his tongue until the touch becomes too much and you have to scoot away.
aaronâs grabbing you to kiss your lips for the final time tonight, roughly expressing a, âi fucking love you, girl.â
youâre officially tired. now resting back on aaronâs chest as he caresses your backside. the slowed pace of his beating heart and the steady hum of white noise bring you close to sleep, but a thought from earlier pests with you.
âtoday with my father, i heard him mention something about approving a marriage. it was right before you left.â
youâre asking for clarification because you werenât sure if you were the only one to hear his comment.
âhm,â aaron hums once more.
âaaron,â you warn, knowing he hadnât fallen asleep that fast. âstop playing.â
âwe talking about all that in the morning, remember?â he brings you into his embrace more, not answering the question, but instead forcing you to lay with him as you both go to sleep.
âiâve never felt so right, no. want you for the rest of my life.â
the morning came and went. you hadnât woken until twelve oâclock in the afternoon. tossing around in an empty bed, you awake to see aaron was gone. you quickly get yourself together, putting on actual clothes and washing your face, before taking steps through the house to find your family and boyfriend.
youâre on the edge of the stairs when you look to see aaron and your mother in the living room on the couch together. they share a genuine laugh and donât even notice you until your footsteps are heard.
âoh, good morning, sweetheart,â your mother beams to greet you. sheâd fixed her face in her usual makeup look, a routine she never missed, no matter the day. âi was just showing aaron some of our photo albums, come, come, come.â
you follow your motherâs directions, taking a seat between her and aaron, he grips onto your shoulder just because. any way to touch you, aaron was going to.
âand right here is my babygirlâs first spelling bee. she won first place this day.â she flips through the vintage album, showing an old photo of you. you present a toothless grin, holding up a certificate earned from spelling the word ârainbowâ. you were in second grade, times were simpler.
âis that aunt clem, momma?â
itâs a picture of one of your elders holding a bottle of wine to their mouth as they drink straight from the container. it looked like a family reunion setting.
âchile, yes. i donât even know who took this or how it got in here.â
aaron snorts and you giggle, watching as your mother goes through the album more.
âyou know another reunion should be coming up soon. i believe your great-grandmother mable is turning 103 this year. it would be nice if you could make it.â
âwould you come with me, âron? you can meet all of my family and my cousins. they do this big outdoor fish fry and we play games all night. itâll be really nice.â
aaronâs in just a little bit of shock. âyou want me there, ladybug?â
âyes. i think the rest of my family will want to meet you.â
just as you finish your sentence, another being enters the room. itâs your father. heâs dressed in a button up and slacks, always a dapper fellow.
âgood afternoon all.â
you donât respond, but aaron does. âgood afternoon, sir.â
âhow is everyone? what are you all doing?â
your mother answers, while you watch as he crosses the room. âgoing through our photo albums, nothing much.â
âthatâs nice,â he hums, waiting only a few seconds before saying something else. âaaron, can i speak to you please?â
and like the respectful man he is, aaron stands immediately. you check with him first before allowing him to leave. âyou gonna be okay, aaron?â
âiâm good, babe. just give me a minute.â
you and your mother watch from the couch as the two men walk down the hallway and enter the office together. âmomma, what do you think they're talking about?â
âi donât know, girl,â she laughs at your nervousness. âyour father is probably apologizing for how he behaved last night.â
âapologizing?â the word was foreign to your father. âmom, you think daddy is apologizing to anyone, let alone aaron?â
sheâs closing up the photo albums, stacking each thick book on top of each other. âi have no clue, but i guess we just have to wait and see.â
you donât have to wait too long because your father is calling you into the room as well. you stare over at your mother while she shrugs and takes a sip from her hot mug.
âis that the coffee we got you guys?â you remembered the gift of vietnamese coffee blends you and aaron purchased for them, as they were avid coffee lovers. you searched for something simple yet unique as a gift for them.
âooh, yes, honey, and it is fancy. me and your father really like it.â
they were supposed to wait for you to open the gift and guide them, but you can only chuckle at your mothers excitement.
your feet begin to guide you, while your mind is elsewhere. was he about to banish you from the house? kick you out of the family will? or worseâhad he and aaron shared heated words once again.
you enter the room to aaron sitting on the chair before your father, while the patriarch sits behind his mahogany desk, a matching chair underneath his bottom. they both look over at you with normal expressions. no one seemed pissed.
âplease sit, babygirl,â you listen, hands behind your back as you cross the room to sit down beside aaron. âi was sitting here with aaron and we just had a wonderful conversation. i apologized to him for my behavior last night, and i want to do the same with you.â
you blink in surprise. he was apologizing.
âi am deeply sorry for everything that happened at dinner, babygirl. you didnât deserve any of my terrible behavior. you brought aaron here to meet with us and i let my own selfish ways stand between it, and for that i apologize.â
your father rarely apologized. only a few times in your life had you heard the words. maybe after an argument with your mother or repentance from the lord, but he was a man of few apologies. the incident that occurred mustâve done a number on him.
âitâs fine daddy. i appreciate your words and i appreciate your apology.â
he claps, chuckling heartily. âi couldnât get any sleep last night as i kept thinking about yesterday. it ate me like crazy.â
your cheeks heat as memories from last night flood you. you stare straight ahead because staring at aaron would make you burn with anxiety after the time you two shared.
your father continues on. âi saw how much you care for aaron and how much he cares for you, andâŚi canât stand in the way of that. what you two have is something i ainât never seen before, and i can only hope that you hold on to it. donât let me, you mother or anyone else convince you other. i was hard on you both, but just know i approve of any decisions you two make for yourselvesâmarriage, mortgages, children.â
you mustâve been swooped into an alternate reality. children? your father was accepting grandchildren? you hadnât even thought about having any kids, but the thought didnât necessarily bother you. a few babies resembling you and aaron running around the neighborhood?
it soundedâŚquite beautiful, actually.
âhappy valentines day, lovessss!!
