was watching the time and that she had a major attitude.
He turned his attention back to Brianna. “Whose table you got me sitting at? Ain’t nobody gonna run up on me are they?” He grabbed her chair, turning it around and placing it directly in front of his so that now they were facing each other. He ran his hand up the outside of her thigh.
“Looks to me like you’re not worried about anybody running up on you.”
“You never know. Y’all know how y’all do. But it’s on you. What’s up Brianna? We can kick it here or we can leave. It is Brianna isn’t it?”
“That’s who I am. I see you did a little research.”
“Fo’ sho. So what’s up Brianna?”
“I’d rather leave but me and my girl came together.”
“Can’t we drop her off? Then you can tell me where we can go.”
“Let me talk to her.” He slid his chair back so that she could get up.
Seeing B get up Shan asked, “Are we leaving now? I’m ready to go.”
“Girlfriend, come here.” Brianna pulled Shan up and away from the table. She peeked at her two-way, smiled, then asked, “You mind driving my car home?”
Placing her hand on her hip Shan snapped, “You leaving with him?”
“Yeah. I thought you was gonna wait for Briggen.”
“Girl please. His ten minutes has now turned into fifteen. If you wasn’t so anxious to sit in the VIP section and suck up free drinks, I could have been gone.”
“I’ll make it worth your while.” She handed Shan the keys to her Lex and the valet stub.
“How is this supposed to be worth my while, hoe?”
“I’m a paid hoe! Now drive my Lex and I’ll give you all the details.”
“Be careful.” Shan rolled her eyes at her girl. Brianna turned away and grabbed onto Skye and didn’t look back.
Once outside Brianna said, “Thanks for walking me outside. Something came up that I need to take care of. Can I get a rain check?” She seductively smiled at him.
“You owe me more than a rain check.” His left eyebrow raised.
“A’ight then. Just let me know.” Brianna was glad that Skye gave her the perfect alibi to leave the club and her car with Shan.
Just then a fully loaded burgundy Yukon pulled up and one of the lightly tinted windows came down. “Yo, B! C’mon.” Peanut yelled, making eye contact with Skye.
“Oh, it’s like that?” Skye asked her, not taking his eyes off of Peanut.
“Rain check,” she mouthed at Skye as she got into the Yukon.
Skye stood watching as they pulled off. He pulled out his celly while going to his ride. “Ain’t this a bitch!” he mumbled.
Shan grabbed her Coach bag and headed towards the bathroom. She spotted Briggen talking to two of Memphis’ finest, Six-Nine and Tareek. They made eye contact and he waved her over. When he saw that she wasn’t coming he excused himself and went to catch up with her. He was watching where Shan was going and Sharia was watching where he was going.
“I knew they were fucking.” Sharia said to no one in particular. “Damn. I promised myself I wouldn’t do this shit no more. If he don’t give a fuck, then why should I?”
“That’s what I’ve been tryna tell you for the longest. Don’t say you’ve finally seen the light?” Demetria teased.
“Yeah, fuck it! The more I beat bitches’ asses for messing with him, the more they come around. Then he looks at me like I’m in the wrong.” Sharia said, not taking her eyes off of Briggen.
“I know you saw me wave you over,” Briggen said as he grabbed Shan by the hand.
“I’m going to the ladies’ room and then I’m going home. Your ten minutes was up ten minutes ago. However, I will allow you one phone call.”
“Damn. When can I call?” He was trying to not get pissed knowing that he wanted to fuck her again. But at the same time, she just showed him that she still wanted to play.
“It doesn’t matter.”
“It doesn’t matter? What kind of answer is that? Obviously I must be on your shit list.” He leaned towards her to kiss her on the lips and she turned her head. “I’m reduced to a kiss on the cheek?”
“Call me.”
“Let me walk you to your car.”
“I’ll be all right. Go finish doing what you was doing. Call me.”
Sharia was sitting at the table watching as they parted ways. As soon as Shan came out of the bathroom Sharia jumped up and followed her to the front of the club. She couldn’t help herself. Briggen was an addiction. The only thing she said to her crew was, “Let me go check on something. I’ll be right back.” They didn’t even hear her because they were running to the dance floor to jam to Mr. Cheeks, Missy Elliott, and Petey Pablo.
When she caught up with Shan, she tapped her on the shoulder. “Excuse me. Excuse me.” As soon as Shan turned around Sharia punched her in the face. “Bitch, Briggen is already taken!” Still catching Shan by surprise she punched her again. Shan slipped and fell backwards onto a table where Sharia was able to really whip her ass. Sharia blanked out as she threw continuous punches on every unprotected area of Shan’s body. When they pulled Sharia off Shan, her nose was bleeding, her necklace was gone and the buttons on her leather jacket were dangling.
“Where’s my fuckin’ purse?” Shan screamed. “You skank bitch!” She lunged at Sharia. “I don’t even know you!” she yelled as she tried to break away from Dino the bouncer.
“I’m Sharia, hoe! And Briggen is my man of three years. This is my club hoe! You will show me some fuckin’ respect!” Sharia’s size 38C’s were heaving up and down. Her and Shan’s eyes locked as their gazes were full of contempt and rage. Sharia’s gaze wrestled with ego and humiliation.
Shan saw Briggen coming their way. “Briggen, tell this big nigga to get his hands off of me.”
“Let ’em both go.” He told Dino the bouncer. He looked from Sharia to Shan. They were now the center of attraction. Shan especially, since the black lace Victoria’s Secret bra that he bought her was in full view.
“Calvin, find my fuckin’ purse and my necklace,” Shan ordered. Her chest heaving up and down.
“She called you Calvin?” Sharia was really hurt by that. “How can you disrespect me like this?”
“You need to train this ugly bitch!” Shan lashed out. Of course she didn’t mean it because Sharia was downright beautiful. From the doe-shaped eyes, long eyelashes, and the radiant tan skin tone, she could easily give the actress Meagan Good a run for her money. Running up on Sharia and grabbing her by the hair, she said, “Bitch, I fucked your man; you need to show me some respect!” She got a punch in before Luke, the other bouncer, lifted her up into the air.
Briggen grabbed Sharia. “Go into the office and get yourself together.” Shan was able to get in another punch as she grabbed Sharia’s blouse, ripping it open. Then again, getting a fistful of Sharia’s hair.
“Let her hair go Shan.” Briggen was pulling on her fingers until Sharia’s hair was freed.
Sharia burst out crying. “What is up with her Briggen? Who is she to you? I’m so tired of this shit!”
“Go into the office, now, Sharia!” Briggen ordered.
Dino the bouncer, put his arm around her and was guiding her towards the office. She tried to break away and get in
