“I need to get dressed.” I mumble, giving up all pretense of eating. I stand up taking my plate to the sink.
“Why? I thought you weren’t scheduled to work or anything today?” Dani asks.
“I need to drive into town and go to the free clinic.” I mutter, wanting away from this conversation, away from Dani and most assuredly away from Dragon.
“What the fuck for Mama?”
I turn around as Dragon’s question echoes. He is watching me with a fork full of omelet hovering half way to his mouth.
“I need to go to the clinic because I’ve suddenly remembered the side effects of Twinkies.”
“And what would that be woman?” He asks, going back to eating. The relaxed vibe coming off of him earlier was completely gone now.
“They pass around germs that can make your dick fall off.”
“Good thing you don’t have a dick.” Dragon returns, the prick.
“You know what I mean!”
“I believe I proved earlier that my dick is more than present and accounted for. I didn’t see you complaining about a fucking thing when you were choking on it and begging for more.”
Dani stopped eating and looked back at me, quietly whispering “Oh fuck me….” She knew me and because she knew me, she knew I was about to blow. “Wrong move D-Man, totally the wrong move.”
Dragon didn’t acknowledge her. His eyes were hard and they are focused on me. That is okay; I am pretty sure mine were once again shooting hate rays of death at him.
“Maybe I forgot things I shouldn’t have.”
“Like what?” He growls getting up from the table to come over and stand in front of me.
“Okay, so I’ll just let you two crazy kids carry on without me. I’ve got to go pull off my fingernails or stab myself with a dull knife. Anything is more fun than this.” Dani says leaving the room.
“Eyes here Nicole”
Oh fuck he didn’t.
“I’m not a damn dog Dragon, so don’t treat me like one.”
“Woman you best be explaining yourself, because I thought we had come to an understanding with this shit.”
“That’s because I was stupid and forgot!”
“Forgot what for Christ sake?”
“That you’re a man whore!”
“Nicole damn it, don’t start this shit.”
“Start what? You’re the one pushing it. I just said I was going to the clinic today!”
“Because you think I’d be stupid enough to pass something on to you. I told your ass I keep my shit gloved!” He growled.
“You say that, but you didn’t with me!”
“I didn’t hear you saying stop and put on a rubber Dragon, none of the fucking three times I’ve been inside you! I sure as hell didn’t hear you worrying about shit when you were draining my dick dry!”
“Oh, My God! You’re unbelievable! News Flash Dragon! Some of that shit can eat through condoms!”
I move to go around him, intent on doing nothing but getting the hell out of Dodge and away from Dragon before I kill him. He wasn’t about to let that happen though since he grabs my arm and stops me.
“Don’t do this shit Mama. What we got going on, it’s good.” He said, his voice solid, but quieter.
“I’m getting checked Dragon, and before you put your dick back inside me, you need to go get checked too.”
“I don’t need this shit. I’m swimming in pussy. I don’t need to put up with your tight ass.” He says his voice full of anger.
“Then don’t!” I yank on my arm to get away from him. I’m close to tears, but I’ll die before he will ever know that.
Instead of letting me go he picks me up and throws me over his shoulder.
“What the fuck are you doing?” I yell, trying to hold onto whatever part of his body I can grab, because it feels like I am falling.
“Mama, I’m going to go wear your ass out so that whatever crawled up in it gets the fuck out of the way.”
“Seriously, let me the fuck down!”
“I will as soon as I get your ass back upstairs.”
“You know, you pick me up and carry me around a hell of a lot Dragon.”
“You complaining, Mama?”
“Hey D-Man you got company!” Dani calls out, when we were half way up the stairs.
“Probably one of your Twinkies” I grumble.
“Seriously Nicole you need to shut your damn mouth because I’m going to paddle your ass for this shit.”
“Yo Dragon, we got trouble man.” I look up and get a glimpse of the man that Dragon brought with him to the bar most often, Crusher. Really, who comes up with these names? Dragon swung me around and started going back down the stairs.
