     RED     LIPPED     &     HALF   naked  ,  fiz  watched  as  the  male  scurries  away  with  the  threat  .  she  couldn’t  say  she  wasn’t  used  to  the  situation  ,  men  who  thought  they  had  rights  to  touch  her  because  they  were  paying  her  !  that  obviously  wasn’t  the  case  ,  &  it  wasn’t  common  ,  but  it  happened  .  she  held  no  awkwardness  (  not  to  say  she  didn’t  feel  it  )  as  she  stood  in  front  tj  ,  amusement  plastered  on  her  features  ,  brow  raised  at  the  taller  man  .   ❝          when  am  i  ever  not  good  ?  ❞   she  plays  with  a  false  bravdo  ,  the  very  same  one  that  had  amusement  on  her  lips  .  she  DID  NOT  enjoy  that  ,  but  she  wasn’t  about  to  show  anything  other  then  that  she  could  handle  it  .  ❝  but  thank  you  .  ❞

            air escapes her lungs as her back collides with the couch and she’s inhaling a deep breath as his large frame hovers over hers. silence becomes them as her gaze remains locked on his, challenging. and then her eyes are shut as his lips find hers, fluttering open the moment they part. she refrains from raising an eyebrow but cannot help the mock confused expression that settles on her features. ❝ tom ?? ❞ and then she juts her bottom lip out in a mock pout. ❝ must not be that memorable… ❞ 

            at his words, the brunette simply offers her middle finger to the air with a wink. and then she’s grinning as his movements cease, delighted. he was so easy to piss off. however, as he stands - the small framed latina is quick to set her food to the side, cup following. and she was smart to do so seeing as he’s closing in on her before she can dart out of her spot, throwing her over his shoulder with ease. a squeal leaves her lips but she’s quick to slam her palm against his back. ❝ he was phenomenal. a god in the sheets - had me real weak. ❞ but she’s clearly far too provocative to shut up. so she’s going along with herown lie, words slow and emphasized. ❝ i think the whole town knows his name. ❞ 

            her jaw nearly drops as he reaches for her food, gaze turning cold as a glare is shot his way and next thing she knows - the nearest pillow is chucked his way. ❝ you have your own !! ❞ she groans out, frowning. and then she’s slumping her shoulders in a shrug, head tilting slightly. ❝ i don’t know. i just let the pizza delivery guy into my pants. he was pretty good too. ❞ the dark haired girl huffs out teasingly, mocking disappointment. 

            mariana’s quick to bat her eyelashes at him, innocently. and then offers him a delicate smile. ❝ whoever by ?? ❞ the dark haired girl is raising an eyebrow at his words, sitting back down comfortably. she settles her cup between her crossed legs, turning back to her food. ❝ sounds to me like you’re trying to tie me down. ❞

            ❝ and still do. ❞ intense dark optics remain locked on him as he sits up, watching his movements. and then she raises an eyebrow at his words but offers him a playful smile. and then she moves up in her spot, reaching for her cup and the bottle as he sets it down. ❝ mami’s not here to listen to you kiss her ass, tj. but i’m sure she can sense you praising her genes. ❞

        “ we do, man.” he nods, a laugh leaving his lips quickly at the revelation about what had got him locked up in the first place. “ totally reasonable, i wanna knock out half these dudes who wanna look at my girl.” he clenches his jaw, clearly not handling the fact that cata had decided to be a stripper for the gang. “ dude i heard some shit while you were in there”

         aiden was still half asleep when he got the call to come and pick up tj from lock up, and now he is leaning against his car as he waits outside. it wasn’t unfamiliar to him to be in lock up himself, he’d been in the same place at least twice. “ nobody’s dead, so yeah.” he shrugs - half joking before patting his hand down on the leader’s shoulder. “ how’d you go in there?”

           shooting him a pointed look, she shrugs nonchalantly. ❝ i’ve guilt tripped you. ❞ knowing glance is offered as his gaze finally meets hers and she’s crossing her arms slowly, raising an eyebrow. but she bites back her words for a moment, instead teasingly reaching for the bottle of soda and then two cups. mariana finds her way back to her spot, handing him his cup and placing the bottle on the table. ❝ just like you don’t get tired of staring at my ass ?? ❞ 

           ❝ who guilt tripped you, bebe ?? ❞ dark doe like optics are flooded with humor as she speaks, eyebrow further raising before proceeding to continue eating. ❝ i love you back, by the way. in case you… forgot. ❞ mariana smiles sweetly, blowing him a playful kiss. and then she’s standing to go get a soda from her fridge, glancing in his direction. ❝ want one ?? ❞
