Chapter 143
My mother had her thoughts that was for sure. "Well he's a looker, but how about you talk this all over with him? I mean I know you love playing matchmaker. To be honest you are really leaving a trail of bodies in your wake... and I'd just hate to see what happens with these friendships..." my mother was all about people's emotional state. After being with me and it really was not my fault this time around if he got hurt. We both promised it was just fun and relaxing for us both. "Ok... OK mother I'll talk to him about it.... as for me leaving bodies in my wake that's not fair. I've told everyone that a relationship just wouldn't work... and before you but in either of you I know I said yes to Sharene. I also said I'd try....and, and I did" I said before anyone could interrupt which they did anyways. "A weekend or half a week do not count as even trying... and poor Sharene she calls every day just to hear your voicemail... than calls mother to just see how everyone is doing.. I am about ready to call her up and ask her how she's doing and...." "Catherine yes perfect idea scorned lovers all hurt by the same woman.... kudos to you both.." I said in such a tone that shut both her and my mother right up.
Jefferson had dropped us off at my place. Than headed home with my mother after a long afternoon and half the day with her and Catherine. Catherine stayed with me for the rest of the day. We talked more about school and California. Before she left when I did to go take dinner to the crew and Bruce. "Seriously come by the gym in the morning or afternoon so you can check it out. Then hang out with us all since it looks like I'll be over there a couple nights now. Also it would be good if you could just talk with him about Jasmine. If it sounds good to him maybe I can get him to go see her before we leave for California. To get him on some type of schedule because seriously I can't deal with anymore crazy. I can't be depended for more sleep overs after we get back. I need to focus on Sunday for one since my mother has the funeral picked for the day we get back. I really want it to go smooth" I said giving her a hug and quick kiss on the cheek. I watched her drive away first before I left. After a 45 mins drive, I was back at the gym just as the dinner was being dropped off. All thanks to Jaclyn who called right before I arrived. "No, it'll be great it'll be a good meal for them...( ha-ha ) no, no you are fine. More business for you if they all enjoy it which I know they will. That’s if they have any taste at all" I said laughing as I got out of the car.
I had entered the building as the catering people were leaving. One of them being the young lady that had been the waitress at our table "OH Jaclyn... you are in trouble...." I said hanging up. "Nice to see you again....." "Mia...." Giovanni yelled from the side door of the other gym and started walking towards us in a sprint like fashion. I looked at the girl again "Jocelynn sorry about that rudeness from my friend...good too see you again..." I said just before Giovanni wrapped his arms around me from behind. "YOU better have an overnight bag in the trunk of yours...." he whispered in my ear. "Ummm Gio meet Jocelynn. She's a waitress from my mother's friend Jaclyn's restaurant. I told you about earlier. Jocelynn my very rude friend Giovanni...." I said introducing them. I watched the girl as she shook Giovanni's hand and a suspicious thought came to mind. That she was there not only for me but for her boss to check Giovanni out for her. "Well dinner is inside for all of you. If you could give me and Mia a second to talk that would be awesome... sorry for my bluntness but I'm on my way home from work. While the guys take the tour of the gym and I have been waiting all day to talk to her" Jocelynn said making it a point to get across to Giovanni that she wanted him to buzz off.
Giovanni kissed my cheek before heading inside to see what was waiting for him. He made sure to try and make me irritated or blush which the irritation part was evident, but blushing did not happen. "So, is that your boyfriend? only because Jaclyn says you aren't attached, and I am not into 3 somes. We I'm strictly pussy only..." "Well first of all he's just a friend 2nd of all I'm not into 3 somes either.... I know that you are here for 2 reasons to check him out... and to obviously see me again. I should tell you now though that I am not into labels. It’s cool that you are a lesbian or whatever you identify as, but I am not either certain way. Nor am I into relationships at this moment. I leave for college in England in about 3 weeks or less... so you have my attention now. What could you possibly want to say to me now. If you thought I would not give you a good thrash back and being blunt you were mistaken..." I said and stopped quickly when she smiled. I did not want to end up snapping or saying something I could not take back. "Ha well then.... you are very beautiful, smart and I think this friendship is going to be great... that's if you would let me try and be your friend... I can see though you do not need a protector or savior or whatever you want to call it... I am sorry about my outburst and being rude to your friend. Yes, I'm here for 2 reasons one of them being to check him out for Jaclyn who will definitely approve for sure and pictures don't do him justice. I don't mind labels since I am a lesbian and proud to be one. Not that I did not once like that gender, but just like a woman's body a whole lot better" she said getting closer to me.
Another step forward she came and we were now chest to chest. As she stood about 1' inch shorter with her heels on. I looked at the side door that was now all the way up. I could see the whole crew watching us. "Give them something to talk about for real now.... mmm and you smell great too.... well fuck me running...." she whispered between breaths of air. Jocelynn put her arm over my shoulder as she breathed me in. She had made the hair's on the back of my neck stand up. Followed by twisting of her hips into my crotch did not help things either. I put up my middle finger when the guys and a couple of the butch females started making cat sounds and body language suggesting I fuck the girl right there. After a good 20 mins of Jocelynn doing her best to rile me up, I halted her hips. I dug my fingertips in pulling back. "Well good job on all of this now being horny. Minus my uncle who is laughing and feeling bad for you not me... this is not the way to become my friend because if it were that easy I'd have a lot more friends. A one-night stand might have worked a few weeks ago. Or even a month ago but ya you're late for that too. So, if you'd like to hang out again or not that is up to you... I'm here for the next 4 days so you can stop by some time at the gym or call my cell" I said programming her number from the paper she had given me earlier and texted her with mine. I was nice and walked her to her truck that was identical to Giovanni's minus the color and held open the door for her. "Wow... you are quite a woman... I'll see you around, but not sure if I'll be able to come here at all this week busy life you know... but maybe we can text, talk on the phone, grab lunch, dinner one of these weeks before you head off to school" she said kissing me on the cheek before getting in. "Sounds nice... how about we start off small first texts, calls, and move our way up. I have a busy schedule until Monday of next week. After that we'll see how this friendship thing looks and I'll see what I can do about putting something more perm on the books" I said feeling like my head was going to explode. Or that my boy shorts would spring a leak at the wrong time.
For the next couple of minutes, I watched her drive out and onto the highway. "Ok she's fine on the road now nothing you could do about it anyways if she wasn't... come eat and tell us what the hell that was all about and who she is" Bruce yelled out. Giovanni was laughing along with the crew. Yet his eyes were definitely not laughing one bit and could see a little jealousy there. It had irritated me further but ignored it until it could be dealt with.
