The Pussy Pounders Volume 1 ( A Novella ) Page 3
“ Well OK. I'll call you in the morning maybe we can meet up for lunch? I honestly think you need to take this time to just get over it. Look at what this is doing to you Lisa? You can't go this hard for some dick that's not yours.” Carmen said shaking her head in disbelief.
“ Why the hell can't I Carmen? I go after everything I want in life...I always have. So to be honest with you I wouldn't be true to myself if I didn't try to pursue him. Yes the way I met Sean isn't traditional by any means but fuck it. That's how I met him. It doesn't mean he's not a good man. A man worth having. Sometimes you can be so close minded Carmen. Life isn't perfect and everyone doesn't have the perfect life, or parents that you have! I don't know his entire story but I'm sure Sean has a very good reason for making money the way he does. Bye Carmen.” Lisa said walking towards the nearest exit.
Did my friend just lose her goddamn mind with me over some dick she's buying? Aww hell no! Yes, it's a good thing she's leaving before I forget she's one of my closet friends and tell her about her buying male prostitutes,desperado ass!
Madness I tell you! Carmen thought grabbing her clutch and walking towards the bar. I'm driving so I'll have one more glass of wine then I'm heading home. This is a really nice spot though I'll have to come here again. Carmen looked around checking out the Friday night crowd that just seemed to be rolling in.
Carmen was lucky enough to approach the bar just as a couple was leaving and two seats became available. Seconds after she sat on the bar stool, a man...a very handsome man at that sat down right next to her.
Damn! This brotha looks so good I may buy his ass a drink...as a matter of fact that's exactly what I'm going to do. Carmen thought to herself feeling a bit sassy. Hell Lisa has me out here on Friday night in a packed club with all her craziness and then cusses me out then dips on me? It's been three months since Hasaan and I broke up...time to put my game face back on!
“ Can I buy you a drink?” Carmen asked turning slightly on her stool to get better look.
“ I wouldn't feel right turning down a drink from a beautiful woman. I'd love one. Thank you.”
Carmen signaled for the bartender who came over to take their order.
“ I'll have a glass of red wine please and this gentleman will have?” Carmen asking looking at him licking her lips seductively.
“ I'll have a sprite or a 7-up, whatever you have.”he said.
“ What? Now I don't even offer to buy men drinks very often but since I did offer... you don't have to go easy on me and order a soda!” Carmen said laughing.
“ I'm not going easy on you. I appreciate the offer and I am taking you up on it. I just don't drink. I'll take a soda and some of your conversation. That’s all I need this evening.” he said looking her over. Pretty face,smile....fuck it, Sean shifted his eyes to the back of her seat, nice ass too? I'll see how it holds up when she's standing.
“ I'm DeSean, nice to meet you.” he said extending his hand and smiling at her. Damn, I must really think she's pretty to give her my full first name he thought to himself laughing. The most he ever gave out was Sean...and he never offered a last name. Though a few times he gave it out upon the insistence of a few nosy women who had demanded a last name. Depending on who they were and his intentions towards them,Sean would decide if they got his standard fake last name of Williams or his real last name which was Walker.
Carmen extended her hand and couldn't control the spreading grin from getting wider. Oh my God the man is beautiful! His voice,those pretty white teeth. I'm in trouble...and damn happy about it too!
“ Well DeSean,I'm Carmen. Pleased to meet you.” Carmen said placing her hand in his where it lingered a few seconds longer than necessary because neither of them was ready to let go.
“ So did you come here alone?”DeSean asked taking a sip of his drink that had been placed in front of him.
“ Actually I came with a girlfriend but she wasn't feeling well so she left early.” Carmen said.
“ Well it sounds like divine intervention to me. You were meant to stay at this club tonight to meet me. God planned for you to buy me this soda, so I could spend the rest of the night talking to you and showing you what a charming man I am” DeSean said smiling.
Carmen looked at him and smiled, “ You are so full of shit right now. You're fine though, so I'm going to let you get away with it right now.” she said laughing.
“ I'm serious!” Sean said laughing along “ You'll see. Please don't tell me you make a habit of letting men you think are attractive get over on you though...it would be disappointing.” he said and then proceeded to lay the charm on her for the next few hours. They drank and danced until three in the morning.
They'd laughed and talked,DeSean introduced her to Cortez who had met surprisingly enough her friend Latrice. The foursome found a booth and sat talking until it was time to leave.
“ I think you've gone past your limit to drive. I came with Cortez. I'm going to leave with you if that's OK? I'm safe...and sane.” DeSean said reaching for her car keys.
“ I did overdo it. This is embarrassing I had way too much wine. I really don't want any strange men knowing where I live.” Carmen said rubbing her temples.
“ Well I'll drive you to my place and you can relax and get yourself together until you're able to drive yourself home. Win-win in my book.”
“ Dammit! I should have gotten a ride home with Latrice. I'd call my friend I came here with to come back and take me home but her ass is really tripping tonight. You know what ? I'll take you up on your offer,it sounds good. I should be OK to drive in a little while.”Carmen said.
“ Sit down here while I go let Cortez know what's up and I'll be ready to go.”
A few moments later DeSean came back and they headed out of the club with Carmen leading the way the best way she could to her car.
By the time they arrived at DeSean's place Carmen was lightly snoring in the passenger seat.
“We're here sleepy head.” DeSean said giving her a slight nudge. He helped her out of the car and into his house where he immediately escorted her to his guest bedroom. Damn! She's fine as hell but I hope she ain’t no damn drunk? DeSean thought laughing to himself. What the hell has gotten into me bringing her to my house? DeSean thought questioning himself. He never...ever let women he didn't know come by his home. Women he did know couldn't even come over unless they were invited. It had been some time since he'd actually dated a woman so it was easy to avoid the drama of it all. He just went to their place. Which never was a problem because most women he showed the slightest bit of interest in did their best to make him as comfortable as possible in the hopes of locking him down into a relationship with them.
This Carmen is interesting, DeSean thought looking at her knocked out on the bed. Very smart,funny and damn attractive....though it's clear she can't drink. I'm going to let her know too! The last thing I need is to get interested in a woman after all this time and find out she has a drinking problem. That's a weakness I wont allow in my life.
DeSean went to his bedroom and grabbed a t-shirt for her to wear. He came back in and began to take her shoes off, talking to her the entire time,telling her exactly what he was doing as he was coaxing her out of her dress and pulling the t-shirt over her head. Carmen was wearing a very nice black lace bra and panty set he couldn't help but notice. DeSean pulled the covers back on the bed and got her properly tucked in. He couldn't stop himself from taking a final look at her face before leaving,flawless mocha brown complexion,long eyelashes and succulent full lips. She's definitely beautiful....I still hope she's not a drunk! DeSean turned out the light,closing the door behind him. Hmm, this definitely isn't day-wear,he thought holding up her dress, but I'll throw it in the washer and get it ready for her by morning so she has something clean to wear and walked down to his laundry room before going into his bedroom to have a shower and get some sleep.

Adam & Antoinette (The Past & Present )
Adam,Sean and
Cortez pulled up to Toni's place. The three of them were suited up in black Armani, from head to toe. All three men looked amazing with their own individual beauty from white,brown to black. Seeing them together always drew stares from women in any environment. Adam Wheeler with his 6ft2in tanned ivory skin,lean and muscular, closely shaved and tapered hair and striking hooded,ocean blue eyes. Cortez Luna was everyone's Latin fantasy. Standing an even 6ft tall with a solid muscular build, his ebony hair fell in waves just grazing his shoulders. Lightly bronzed skin, deep chocolate brown eyes with lashes so long women paid money to have what God gave him naturally.
Rounding off the handsome trio was Sean Walker 6ft 4, 220 pounds of dark,rich chocolate made up of pure lean muscle with a perfectly shaped round,smooth head .Sean was notorious for his tongue game and women all over the city were willing to pay top dollar to have his smooth head between their thighs. For the right price Sean was willing to oblige.
“ Man, go get Toni.” Cortez said to Adam.
“ Why do I need to go get her?” Adam asked leaning back in the black leather seat. Trying to pretend he wasn't anxious to see what she had on. Last weekend he'd almost come to blows with some disrespectful muthafucka in the club.
“ If you and Toni don't stop playing these dumb games I'm going to slap the both of you myself. You need to go get her because the minute you and Toni are around each other it's a date for the two of you.” Sean said.
“ That's right! We've been peeped the vibes going on between you two. What's the problem? I don't know when the last time I've heard her mention dating anyone and you haven't been doing any outside fucking so what's holding you back?” Cortez asked.
“ Leave me alone! I love her the same way you two do.” Adam said unconvincingly.
“ The hell you do. Neither of us...,” Sean said pointing to Cortez “ wanna fuck her. I don't think you can honestly say the same. All we're saying is hey man, as long as you love her, go for it. Don't do it if you're not absolutely sure but if you're worried about what we think...we love both of you. Go for it.” Sean said.
“ Um hmm.” Adam said opening the car door and walking up the steps to Toni's door.
He hated to admit it, even to himself but Adam was glad they'd brought it up. Who did he think he was kidding anyways trying to hide it from the two people who knew him best?
Adam turned the door knob and walked in heading straight for the kitchen. Toni always had her door unlocked,it was a good thing she was in a great neighborhood, Adam was still constantly on her about locking the front door anyway. A great neighborhood didn't mean bad things couldn't happen. Toni always made a point to remind him the only visitors she had were him,Sean and Cortez.
“ Toni ! Are you ready?” Adam said walking into the kitchen to get a drink where he found Toni standing with a glass to her lips...completely naked. Well except for a pair of heels.
“Adam! Don't you know how to knock!” Toni screamed quickly putting her glass down before she dropped it.
“ You never make me knock,why would I knock tonight Antoinette?” Adam said trying to pace his speech because he felt himself unraveling right before her eyes. He'd imagined what Antoinette would look like naked, underneath him,on top of him and him in back of her no less than a million times and his imagination didn't live up to the reality... at all. She was all curves,full d-cup breasts that spanned down to a flat, lightly muscled stomach with a small a cinched waist spreading into full voluptuous hips and feminine slightly muscular thighs. Adam could see without a doubt the workouts and the runs she dragged him on in the early hours of morning were paying off.
“ Let me finish getting dressed.” Antoinette said turning to leave the kitchen.
“ I need to talk to you..now is as good a time as any. We'll take your car. I'm telling them to go without us.” Adam said walking toward the door.
Adam went to the driveway and told Cortez and Sean they'd meet them at the club shortly.
“ I'm going to take your advice. Pray for me because I don't want our friendship messed up behind this.” Adam said nervously.
“ Man you ain’t gonna know unless you try...,” Sean said “ we'll have a table,don't take too long.”
“ You both know I have to be completely honest with her right? I have to tell her about the Pussy Pounders...” Adam said looking at them both.
“ Do it. I feel kinda bad we haven't been honest about that with her anyways.” Cortez said starting the ignition.
“ We'll see you later.”
Toni sat at her dressing table in shock. I can't believe Adam just caught me naked! I just stood there like a dumb-ass! What could I do? I had to play it cool,I'm not ashamed of my body and I didn't have anything to cover myself with. Toni heard a knock at her bedroom door.
“ Come in. Now you decide to knock?” Toni said laughing nervously.
“ Whatever. I never come in your bedroom without permission.” Adam said walking in and sitting on her bed.
Adam laid back on her bed watching her put finishing touches on her makeup and stalling for time. He noticed she was now covered with a red silk kimono robe. How do you begin to tell the woman you've been the best of friends with since you were kids you're in love with her, want to have a relationship with her and only her but oh yeah,I get paid to sleep with women too?
“ Adam what's wrong with you? You look a million miles away and you're holding me up from a Thai Margarita so it better be good.”
“ I'm worth more than your Thai Margarita.” Adam said laughing.
“Says who? I don't know that!” Antoinette said quickly.
“Well I want you to find out for yourself. I'm not even sure how to approach you with this but it's something that's just growing...for me at least and I'm finding it hard to ignore. Better yet I don't want to ignore it anymore.” Adam said rubbing his now sweaty palms on his pants legs. What the fuck? I'm a grown ass man nervous like this?Do I know everything about her I need to know? Shit I know she's not racist but that doesn't mean she even dates white dudes! Have I ever seen or heard about her going out with a white guy? Shit!Shit!Shit! Adam thought rubbing his palm across his forehead.
Antoinette turned in her chair to look at Adam who looked nervous as hell. Which was in turn making her nervous as hell! Adam out of all four of them was always calm,he always had a plan and never seemed to let any situation bother him. So to see him acting fidgety and nervous was unheard of in all the years she'd known him.
“Adam you're scaring me. What’s wrong?”she said starting to rise from her seat.
“ Don't... just stay right there. Let me get my thoughts together.”
“Adam please don't tell me you have a drug problem. You know how I feel about drugs and I will end our friendship behind it. I am so serious! You know what drugs have done to our lives....,”
“What! I'm not on any damn drugs! How could you even ask me that? You know me better than that Antoinette!”
“Well your ass is sitting there damn near sweating bullets....your forehead is wet, you keep rubbing your hands on your legs...what's next the shakes? You know I'm not down with that type of lifestyle so if that's what your into,I will end this friendship today. I mean it Adam.” Antoinette said standing in front of him now with her hands on her hips.
Fuck it Adam thought to himself quickly I'm going to just go for it. Tell her how I feel but I can't tell her about the Pussy Pounders...not tonight. That’s just too much too soon. I need to ease her into it slowly!
“OK here's the thing Antoinette,we've known each other since we were teenagers I care about you a lot. I mean, I love you.”
“ I love you too Adam. I love all of you.”she said her heartbeat increasing,what is this? The dreaded friend zone talk. Does he know I'm into him and is trying to let me down easy?Dammit he's noticed me looking at him like a fool and wants to let me know he only sees me a little sister!
“ No Antoinette it's not like that. I have feelings for you that aren't just friendly. I've never looked a
t you like a sister. The way Cortez and Sean do. I've always wanted more from you. From the day we met at Mrs. Wyatt's foster home back in the day, I've wanted you to be mine....who is this Malik guy you've been seeing?
Antoinette stood there stunned for a moment unable to say anything.
“ Look say something. I feel stupid enough as it is, but I figured if I was going to lay my feelings on the line for any woman it would be you. Well?”
“Antoinette tell me what you're thinking. Because when I'm around you I feel like we have something special between us that I have never felt with any other woman,is it just me feeling like this?
Antoinette just stood there looking at Adam and all the years of knowing him seemed to flash by. Nights she couldn't sleep after being placed in Mrs. Wyatt's home from being awakened by nightmares about her mothers death,Adam was the one who always there for her to talk to the many nights she'd wandered into the kitchen to sit. Adam would already be there,as if he was waiting for her. Always willing to lend and ear and letting her know life had more in store for them than being the throw away kids no one seemed to want or love. As they got older Sean and Cortez always introduced her as their sister...Adam never did. Antoinette distinctly remembered being at a party and her attempting to introduce him as someone who was like a brother to her. She found herself embarrassed when Adam immediately corrected her in front of the crowd and said he was not her brother. Also Adam always called her Antoinette,except when he was angry with her.
“ Malik is no one,just a friend Adam. What took you so long? I've been waiting three years for you to tell me this.” Antoinette said walking towards him smiling.
“ What do you mean you've been waiting?”Adam said taken aback.
“ I mean I've been waiting three years for you to notice me. To stop viewing me as one of the guys,notice I'm a grown ass woman. You made it clear you didn't see me as a sister. You just never made it clear to me what you did view me as Adam.” she said softly and sitting on his lap.
