to come to mind. I didn't know a thing about drugs or how they worked or even what they looked like but I had been around the block a few times. Enough times to shake my head in distaste.

" remember me, AJ?"

His eyes zeroed in on me and he gave me this goofy smile. " aw shit! If it ain't my favorite girl, Saphire."

I couldn't help but laugh a little bit. " You need to stop."

" I'm just sayin. You brought in more money than any of these hoes ever could." The girl behind the desk sucked her teeth. " so, what brings you by?"

" um, I was wondering if you could help me find Jas. I went to see Ashton and he said -"

" get out." His face hardened.

" what?"

" get out! Did I stutter?" His eyebrows raised. I didn't know what to say. His moods changed too fast for me to comprehend. I couldn't even move until he yelled at me. " out! now! And don't come back!"

Heartbreak Hotel

 

-Saphire-

I pulled my hair up into a loose bun and began to strip out of my clothes. I was so fuckin irritated and confused and tired- my God.

Ashton was actin like a little lost puppy, following behind Mariah. It didn't seem like he minded much to be strung along like I had seen her do him but whatever.

And then AJ-! For my last few months in Brimson I was a stripper, his stripper, but he had never so much as risen his voice at me but now all of a sudden he was treating me like his enemy. You heard him, I made more money for him than any of the other girls.

I didn't even care about what was going on in that city anymore, I just wanted to go home and forget this whole trip. Maybe I was fine, maybe Silver didn't know what the hell she was talking about.

I hummed to myself quietly as I turned the hot water on to run a bath. I only used a little cold.

I was going to punish myself for coming back to this stupid was place. Silver and her oh so wise behind and just convinced me that I needed to do something or close a chapter in my life. Stupid, right?

There was a knock on the door making me roll my eyes. I ordered room service, but I told them the specific time to bring it. After I had scrubbed my skin for a good two hours, then I would eat, but not before.

" coming." I grabbed my robe from across the bed and put it on, making sure to tie it up.

I was going to snatch the door open, give them my meanest look I could muster, and tell them off. Hmmph.

" I said three hours you fucking-" I cleared my throat. " Oh- it's you."

Ashton shrugged, stuffing his hands in his pants pockets. " Yeah, who was you expectin talkin like that?"

" nobody." I rolled my eyes. " what are you doing here and how sinuous find me?"

" I mean, twenty dollars can get you pretty far sometimes. "

" okay, so, one question down, one to go. Why are you here."

" look," his face clouded over. " after you left my house earlier I just started to feel like there were some things I needed to explain to you. Mariah would probably disagree but - can I come in?"

" no, but you can have five minutes. Go!"

Ashton sighed. " the day we fucked, I got a call from my boy. He needed help with something, a trip out of town to take care of some business. Originally the trip was scheduled for a few days later but he called me that morning with an urgency that I just couldn't refuse. Long story short, it was a set up. He and his brother got me out into the woods to kill me. I ran, I call AJ- shit. " His jaw twitched. " I killed a man that day. Turns out, they had set me up because my father had killed their father. I didn't know a thing about that but-"

" 4 minutes."

" I was going through a lot, I mean, taking a life! I broke up with you, but the next day I went back by jas' s house to tell you I was sorry but you were already gone. I was talking to Jasmine and - shit, we fucked, I'm not gone lie. We had sex and she got pregnant. Aj was pissed. I guess they fucked around once or twice before and he felt some kind of betrayal from me even though I didn't know. "

" 3 minutes." It was hard to hide my shock from the things that he was telling me.

He had killed somebody?

He had had sex with Jas?

" when Jas was six months pregnant he kidnapped her. Well, he took her to his club. The sick fucker had her tied up to a chair, forcing liquor down her throat. She went into labor. By the time I showed up one child was already out, laying completely still on the floor and AJ was still giving her alcohol. I beat his ass, he ran and I called for a ambulance. Jas was dead before they got there but thank God my babies made it."

He and Jas had babies?

" 2 minutes."

" Mariah came along. We had already dated before me and you and I knew that all she wanted was money. She want my money and I want somebody to help me raise my children."

But why would you settle for somebody who doesn't give a damn about you? There are plenty of good women out there for you to settle for a damn golddigger.

" is that all?" I asked. My voice was forced, I could barely get that to come out because I just felt so much. Maybe I was better off not knowing because this did not feel good at all.

" Yeah, I-"

I slammed the door in his face and locked it.

Ian was safe. He would never sleep with my best friend, he was safe. I needed safe. I didn't need Ashton.
