Rain Major

Chapter 37

I was laying next to Jamila on her bed. We were smoking and looking at her ceiling. She passed the blunt back to me.

"Can I ask you something?" I said and inhaled.

I watched as she turned around on her stomach and her low eyes danced back and forth. She nodded her head yes and began to rub the side of my face.

"Are you a virgin?" I asked her.

I watched as she smiled and blushed before turning back on her back and laying her head on my chest.

"Something like that," she said and took the blunt from me.

I licked my lips.

"I refused to take strap from anybody," she said and played with my hand.

I had my arm wrapped around her shoulder. A virgin huh. That was some sexy shit. I have never been with one. It's a good thing I ain't strap her down.

"Why is that?"

"I haven't found the person I trust yet," she said.

"Good thing you told me cause next time I was gonna be deep in them guts," I said and laughed.

"Maybe in the next two times," she said and straddled my waist.

"Word?"

I inhaled the smoke and placed my hand behind my head. I watched as she took it out my hand and finished the rest of it before leaning over and putting the rest out in a random ass cup. She slowly exhaled and I bit my bottom lip.

"Yeah," she said and laid down ontop of me and turned the TV off.

I looked over at her clock and saw that it was damn near two am.

"Rain?"

"Hmmmm," i said as I was slowly drifting off to sleep thanks to these magic fingers of hers on my ear.

"What's up with your ears?" She asked me.

My body tensed up as the question lingered in my head. I can't remember all of why I don't like them to be touched but I do remember some as some bad childhood memories flooded through my mind.

"Bad experience when I was younger," I mumbled.

"That bad huh?" She asked me.

"I think so I don't remember to much," I said as she sat up.

I watched as my shirt on her body rose up. I licked my lips as my eyes scanned over her thighs. I bit down on my bottom lip as I watched her reach over and grabbed a hair tie and put her hair in a ponytail.  She laid back onto my chest and melted into my body.

" Even though you are guarded as fuck,  I'm falling hard for you," she mumbled.

"Me too," I mumbled as sleep took over me as her hand danced over my ears.

I felt her body relax more into mines as her breathing slowed down. I heard her let out a low moan as we both drifted off to sleep.

"How long have you been out of school Ashley?" I asked the girl sitting in front of me.

"Two years," she said and smiled at me.

She was my last interview of the day. I was pretty impressed with most of the candidates so far.

"Did you pass your boards?" I asked her and raised my eyebrow.

She laughed.

"Yes I did a year ago. But I had somethings happen in my life that didn't allow for me to have time to keep pursuing this field," she said.

"It is a demanding field. Do you think you are ready for it now?" I asked her.

"Yes," she said very confidently.

"Do you have children?" I asked her.

"No but I do have a little sister," she said and smiled.

"Do you have guardianship over her?" I asked her.

"Yes. But I have some help so if we get a night call I would be able to go," she said.

"Well if we did hire you and you accepted you do know it's going to be a lot of late hours and you are gonna be either with me or Rainie till you get comfortable to go out on your own," Kimmy said.

"That is fine I don't mind going with you guys. I do have to learn somehow," she said and laughed.

I smiled and nodded my head. I have to admit she was very punctual. She was kind of cute too. She was 5'3 probably around 145. She had her hair colored a nice dark red. Her eyes were brown and she was Puerto Rican which would help us be a more diverse funeral home.

"Well Ms.Ashley, we will call you sometime next week and let you know about the job," I told her and smiled.

"Do you have any questions for us before you go?" Kimmy asked her.

"Yes. How much would I get paid?" She said and laughed.

I put my fist against my mouth and chuckled.

"You will get paid hourly probably start you at like 15.50 or something," I told her and looked at Kimmy.

"Word?!" She said excitedly.

"Yeah," I said.

"Will the owner be okay with that?" She asked us.

"Yeah I'm cool with it," I said and smirked.

"No way!" She said and laughed.

"I looked on the website and everything and it's not hinted that you own this place," she said.

"I know I try and keep it on the low,"

"I don't blame you," she said and smirked at me.

I unclipped my phone from my waist to check the text message that just came through.

'J. Rose'

What should I wear tonight?

I smirked and texted her back clothes. I clipped the phone back onto my waist. It was almost noon and I still had a little work to do before I left for the day.

"Well Ms. Ashely if you have no other questions we can call this meeting to an end," I said as I stood up.

"Um I have one question," she said as she stood up and we all began to walk out of the arrangement room.

"Shoot," Kimmy said as we made our way into the lobby area.

"Would it be possible if I could tag along for a day. Just to see how you guys operate and stuff?" She asked me.

I looked at Kimmy who was looking at me. She was the first to ask.

"Uh sure. What day works for you?" Kimmy asked.

I stuck my hands in the pockets of my brown suit pants and waited for an answer.

"Tomorrow?" She asked as she raised her eyebrow.

"Yeah that's fine. Be here no later than 9," Kimmy said.

"Sounds perfect," she said as she gave us both a hug and walked out of the door.

"What you think?" I asked Kimmy as my phone vibrated against my waist.

"I like her better than the others," she said.

I nodded my head.

"Well hire her tomorrow then and we can have Laura call the other two," I said.

"Good cause that Max dude was creepy," she said and laughed.

I laughed and unclipped my phone.

"I'm going to go and work on this guy for a little bit," I told her and unlocked my phone.

"Sounds good. Imma go and pick up that guy from the Medical Examiner," she said.

"Okay and we can sit down when you get back and make up a schedule and shit," I told her.

"Sounds good," she said as she walked off.

'J.Rose'

Stop playing with me Rain. I'm tired and cranky.

I laughed and text her back asking what did she want to do.

'J.Rose'

I don't know. You coming over here?

I texted her back saying I could.

'J.Rose'

Yay! Don't be late Rain I get off at 3.

'J.Rose'

And don't come to my house in yo work clothes either. Lol

I texted her back and said okay. I know I was gonna still be in my work clothes but shit. I'm on call tonight.

'J.Rose'

And your staying the night.

I laughed and texted her back okay. Before I could walk back into the prep room Nora came walking in.  She walked up to me and grabbed my phone out my head.

"Your welcome nigga," I said and raised my eyebrow.

"Hmm?" She said and looked at me as she did something.

"Oh yeah thank you brother. My damn phone died and I need to check something real quick," she mumbled and waved me off.

"So you drove here?" I asked her.

"No I was driving by though," she said.

"Why ain't you use your car charger?" I asked her.

"I ain't got one," she mumbled.

"You know you can hook up your usb cord to your car right?"

She stop scrolling on my phone and her eyes got all big.

"Fo real brother? Don't play with me," she said.

"Yeah,"

She looked at me and raised her eyebrow. I shook my head. I swear she is the smartest dumbest person I know.

"I sholl can," she said and tossed me my phone.

"By Nora," I said as she walked out the door.

"Yeah yeah bye nigga," she said and made her way to her car.

I groaned and rubbed my hands across my face.
