Marcus rubbed his eyes wearily. He had been pouring over the proposals for a new sneaker ad for the past two hours. Turning in his computer chair, he stretched his aching limbs and stifled a large yawn. With a loud grumble, Marcus's stomach told him it was time to eat. He grabbed his phone, and made his way into the kitchen. Upon opening his refrigerator, he immediately became overwhelmed with choices for a meal. For the past couple month or so, Marcus had been eating dinner from time to time with his neighbor Makena, who never let him leave without extras. Deciding on a Tupperware bowl of gumbo, Marcus shoved it into a microwave. Falling into the hum of the machine, he found himself lulled into thoughts of Makena.
In his mind's eye, Marcus saw her as she had looked two weeks ago. They had a small barbeque to go along with a football game between the Saints and the Falcons. Makena wore a loose, flowing yellow shirt and very, very short white shorts. The shorts had clung to every single curve and dip in her hips and ass. When she dropped the TV remote, Marcus had almost lost control at the sight of her bending over to get it. The shorts had ridden up her thick, chocolate thighs and the undersides of her juicy cheeks were peeking out from the bottom.
Marcus's joy was short lived, however. When she finally got the remote, she tugged on the tantalizing garment until it covered her sweet, wide ass again. Marcus remembered the subtle jiggling of her breasts when she danced to the music they played as they cooked. Marcus had turned on 90's R&B as a joke, but was pleasantly surprised at Makena when she sang along, shaking her hips to the sultry music. Remembering her in this way made Marcus feel a longing he couldn't shake.
What in the hell am I waiting on?
He thought. But before he could give it anymore thought, his cell phone beeped with a text.
[hey there! J]
It was from Makena. Eagerly, Marcus responded.
[hello. What have u been up 2]
[arguing! employees are so frustrating! L]
[y? What happened? Wanna come over 2 talk?]
Marcus had typed it before he could even think. He waited, worried she would think him too forward.
[that would be great! youre the best! be there in a sec!]
Marcus exhaled. Quickly, he gave himself a mental once over.
I don't stink, got a hair cut yesterday...
The door bell rang.
Putting down the half eaten gumbo bowl, Marcus walked over to the door and opened it, not bothering to check who it was.
Makena strolled through the door in black leggings and an over-sized long sleeved sweater dress. Her full lips were pulled into a pretty pink pout. After giving him a tight hug that he didn't think he would survive, she sat at his breakfast bar, helping herself to one of his Powerades.
"I'm probably way too comfortable over here, but screw it. Toss me out when you're uncomfortable or upset," she asserted. Shaking with silent giggles, Marcus leaned on the bar next to her. "Aren't you always calling me a country boy? Haven't you heard of 'Southern Hospitality'? My mama raised me right! Besides....You make me feel more comfortable when you are here. I could never be upset with you, Kenzi." Marcus winced.
I sound like an asshat,
he thought. He turned his head slowly, afraid of what he would see.
Makena smiled sheepishly, a spoon in her hand and an empty bowl in front of her. She had demolished the gumbo he'd left on the opposite side of the countertop. "Makena! God dammit! Don't give me food if you're gonna come over here and eat it all!" Giggling, Makena ran holding the spoon over her head, yelling out a rebellious "Screw you! Gumbo Revolution!"
