Kejuan had his eye on me, and I had my eye on him.
Thanksgiving weekend of 2015, I came home to Baltimore on leave from Germany with my new girl Tasha, as my Granny Alice had been begging to see me with someone.
"Bring that long haired gal to the house," I wanna feed her, Granny told me, as I FaceTimed the woman who raised me and allowed her to meet Tasha. "She's a doll. Bring her, Quentin! I'mma feed that skinny little thing and she won't know what hit her."
Tasha, a native of D.C., and I lucked out as we got a flight out of Frankfurt that let us land the preceding Monday. I introduced Tasha to my Granny and my two sisters, Bella and Kimberly, as well as Kejuan, Kimberly's offensive lineman sized fiance.
"So we hear about you and finally meet you," Kimberly said to Tasha as they hugged.
Kejuan and I did the same, as we'd met before, then later on that evening we all sat down to eat collards and cornbread prepared by my Granny, right before Tasha and I left for a two night stay in D.C. to meet her family.
"I know you a D.C. girl, but uh, make sure you come back here to get a helping of my peach cobbler, you understand," she told Tasha before we left the house.
While driving I couldn't help but think of Kejuan and how he looked at me when we met earlier. Dude could've been six foot five, maybe 300 lbs., and no more than 23. Though he carried a little gut, he had big arms that bulged through the leather jacket he was wearing. He was masculine, but there was something about the beefy dude that won the heart of my dance team performing, aspiring lawyer of a sister as she was head over heels in love with dude.
"This man adores me, and I adore him," she once said in a family group chat prior.
Tasha and I did D.C. for two days as we met and congregated with her family, then she and I headed back north just in time for Thanksgiving morning.
"Good, Quinton is back. You and that long haired gal get in here and help," Granny yelled at me, as she needed hands in preparing her traditional Thanksgiving breakfast.
Granny was in the kitchen when she shouted her demands, as we joined Kimberly, Kejuan, and a handful of cousins as we prepped food. I stood beside Kejuan as I was slicing fruit, and would "poke the bear" a little through conversation.
"So you a junior like my sister," I asked Kejuan. "I never knew what year you were in."
"No, I'm actually a senior. I finished a year ago and working on my masters now, then afterwards I'll get the doctorate," he said with a sly smile.
"Ok big senior. What's next," I asked.
"Well, somehow if the pros come calling, I'll answer, but otherwise, I want to be a science teacher," he stated.
Kejuan was articulate, but had a little zest in his vocal dialogue. I listened attentively, letting him talk as I looked at him, checking out his full, perfectly manicured beard highlighted by his full lips. He rambled and so the more he spoke, the more I wanted to put my hands on his ass, or in his crotch, just to see how he'd react when he was being pleasured. I was sure the big boy came like a faucet, and I for one wanted to confirm sooner than later. I ended up interrupting him to keep my dick from getting hard.
"She brought you all the way up here to get some of Granny's cooking. You're about to see how real it is up here in Baltimore," I told him.
"Oh yeah? I'm definitely down for that," he said to me, as he winked his right eye.
"You down for whatever this weekend," I asked, trying my best not to go too far, but at the edge.
"I'm definitely down for whatever, I'm born ready," he said.
Big boy was my prey, as this black bear hunk definitely became my sexual prey, as I wanted nothing more than to have a private moment with him.
"Well buckle up. Your taste buds won't be the same after today," I said to him, trying to steer the conversation on course with events involving family, vice just me and him.
We all finished our jobs in food preparation to allow Granny to serve us one piping hot breakfast, something she'd done as a tradition for many years. Afterwards, the men cleaned the dishes, then retreated to the living room to watch football, while the women all tied their hair back and put on aprons to assist Granny. Kejuan made it a point to sit beside me, as we all laughed, joked, and drank liquor, having a jubilant time.
"Who would you mind getting drafted by," one of the cousins asked Kejuan.
He spoke and I paid close attention, as he was making eye contact with everyone, except me.
"Would you go to Dallas or San Francisco," another cousin asked.
"I'll go wherever I'm drafted or given a chance. I'll prove my worth from there," he said to him.
