Focusing my attention on the road I can't help start to feel my nerves get the best of me. I'm driving to pick Calvin up today for our official first date.

I had to leave him on read for a couple ofdays to get my mind right on what I wanted to plan. I had to ask Ryan what I should do since it's been a minute I took a person out. He helped me come up with a dinner and an art exhibit date. I told him that they like movies and art and just my luck it was art show happing downtown this weekend. Plus this new Korean spot opened up right down the street from there so I made reservations for a private room for us. I hoped he liked it.

Ryan tried his hardest to figure out who I was taking out. I was about to be honest and tell him it was Calvin, but I know we still haven't discussed how we were going to make our relationship public. Hell I don't even know if that's what he wants honestly. He's a teacher

and engaged he has a whole career. What does he look like dropping the ball on that for a college student he happens to like. Shit we probably won't never come out and I'll just be his second partner in whatever relationship he and Ravyn has.

Starting to sweat and my stomach bubbling my nerves get even worst. I hear the gps saying I'm down the street from his shared home. Pulling into the driveway I take into account of a white Benz truck parked near Calvin black Mercedes. That only means one thing Ravyn was home...

Looking down at my phone it reads 6:30 we had to be at the art exhibit for 7:15. Ryan saw that we can get a guide to walk us around the different art and answer any questions we had. It costed extra, but I felt Calvin deserved it.

Unbuckling my seat belt I take a one look at myself in the mirror and wipe the sweat that grew on the drive here. Getting myself together I pick up the flower of bouquet Meech made me buy this morning. He felt my date would appreciate it. I honestly laughed at him, but I thought it wouldn't hurt and add a cute touch to our date.

Stepping out I begin my journey towards the beautiful home and ring the doorbell. Waiting at the door I do a breath check, can't have Calvin cracking on me. Moments later the door opens revealing the beautiful women I've heard many stories about.

"WOW you are such a cutie,please come in,"she says grabbing me and pulling me in. Looking at the woman I can't help but to stare at her beautiful backside. The woman was past beautiful she was gorgeous. Her green house dress hugged her brown skin and her black hair flowed down her back all the way to her curvy butt. Calvin truly has amazing taste in women.

"Those flowers are beautiful, he's going to love them," she says leading me to the kitchen. Getting out of my head I focus on the woman and her words. "Jesus's she even more beautiful in the face".

"Well thank you, you're just as beautiful your self". "Oh no I said that out loud?"I say putting my head down on the counter. "Well yes!. It's okay though you're not the first person to do that, I have that effect on people," she says laughing.

"Do you want any juice, water, beer hell I even got Henny in the back". Lifting my head off the counter I think about my options. "I'll take a beer please I dont want to get tipsy right now."

"Great choice I'll drink one with you". Looking at her I watch her move around the beautiful big kitchen. Popping two beers open she walks it over to me and sets it down before siting on the barstool in front of me.

"Thanks", I say taking a sip of the bitter beer. Settling my nerves I take a real good look at the brown skin woman in front of me. "I remember you...you're the woman that stop me in the club."

"Awww you remember that, I remember you too from that night as well. When he should me your pictures for the first time I instantly remembered our encounter. I can never forget those big brown eyes staring at me in a dark club".

Laughing at her I finally feel myself start to calm down. "I would've brought you flowers as well if I knew you were going to be here. I want to be a gentleman to the men who I'm..." "Dating, seeing, screwing she finishes for me."

"Well yes," I say causing us both to laugh. "How do you feeling about all of this I've never been a third in any relationship. This all feels like a crazy dream to me." Ravyn gets quiet and takes a sip of her beer kinda getting serious on me.

"Honestly I've never thought I find myself in an open relationship turned marriage either, but here i am," she says taking another sip. About to speak she beats me to it.

"He cheated on me 2 years into our relationship with some hussy with no class, and I was disgusted. We broke up for like a week because that's how long I could only be away from him. That was one of the hardest weeks of my life. Once we got back together the relationship was different he lost my trust and broke my heart. He had me promised he would never do something like that ever again. And I believed him. He was a great partner for the next year, then I met my old coworker and you can guess how that ended".

"Months after that we decided polygamy was the way to go for us to go. I just didn't expect him to find someone before the wedding, but I like you," she says looking me over again.

"Im so sorry for embarking on this journey with Calvin". "Oh shut up i have no problem and you shouldn't either. Me and him are strong enough to get through everything. He knows where home is at the end of the day she," say looking me in the eye.

Feeling a shiver go down my spine and a kiss placed on my cheek my body freeze up. "I hope Ravyn was a good host to you,"!Calvin says snapping me out of my freeze.

"Yeah she is great and beautiful I see why you're marrying her". "I'm sorry I took so long I had to cut the grass today and wasn't paying attention to time. I know you wanted to be at the place by 7:00."

"It's alright we have time I say looking down at my watch. The place isn't too far away from here."

"Okay let's get going then he says placing on his Jean jacket. I'll see you later tonight, I love you and get some rest alright." "Yes sir she says pecking his lips a couple of times."

Looking at the couple my stomach begins to slightly hurt. I have joined something really serious between two people. And I don't know if I really can really fit into their lives.

"It was nice to finally meet you Trey, take good care of my man," she says walking over and giving me a side hug. "Lock the front door when you leave," she says disappearing up the stairs.

Looking at my watch it reads 7:00. "Oh shit Cal we gotta go babe I say cringing at that word." "Babe he says laughing I can get used to that". Grabbing his flowers and his hand I rush us out the huge house and to my car.

"Yes this piece is new from a local photographer,"our guide person tells us. The picture captures young black boys and girls hanging around a basketball court dribbling and playing.

Holding Cal hand I can't help but to begin grin at the piece.

"This is beautiful the color grade and capture is perfect he says getting closer to the photo". Looking over it longer he begins to laugh. "Trey where in the hell did you find time to get your pictures in an art gallery,"he says looking over at me.

"Well I might've asked the owner if I can get a piece in here to impress my date and he agreed after some persuading." "Well good you did that I love it," he says looking at me with lustful eyes.

"Stop looking at me like that we still have about 20 more pieces to look at in here come on," I say grabbing his big hand and leading us throwing the rest of the exhibit.

"That exhibit was amazing you really be being attention to what I be say huh," he says looking down at our adjoined hands. "Well of course I listen to you I wanted this night to be very special for you. Like I told you tonight is about spoiling you. Now come on we got reservations we can't miss."

Grabbing his hand I lead us out the art gallery and up the street to this new Korean spot. Walking into the restaurant we're met by the hostess. "Hi reservation for two under Trey Stewart". "Yes Mr. Stewart they just finished setting the room up follow me this way".

"Setting the room up Trey what did you do?" he questions following me and the hostess. Shut up and enjoy the night beautiful, I say kissing his hand.

"WOW, we say entering the beautifully decorated room. I didn't think y'all could pull it off, but y'all sure did, I tell the hostess. Well thank you sir I hope you two enjoy, she says leaving us.

Looking over at the strong build man I can't help but to admire the outfit he has on. His tight yet loose black slacks grips his bottom and jean jacket grips his big muscles. Licking my lips I grab his hand and lead him to his seat.

"How were you able to get them to decorate the place and project one of my favorite movies". "Now this didn't take very much they did it and just wanted me to tell over people how good their food is regardless if i find it nasty," I say causing us to laugh together.

"Well I hope it's good because I'm starving,"he's say rubbing his hand together. "Yeah me too," I say licking my lips once again at him. "Oh no sir don't look at me like that I ain't giving up no ass tonight I'm about to grub,"he says taking a shot of whatever Korean alcohol on the table. Busting out laughing him I take a shot of the liquor as well

The rest of the evening we ate, drank and had so much fun. It was really nice to see him outside of his teacher lens, but just as his self for once.

"I really enjoyed tonight with you. I can't believe it took us so long to get to this moment,"he says rubbing a circle in my hand as we walk around.

"Yeah I'm so happy you liked, I was so scared that I was going to pick something you wasn't interested in I really needed you to like," I confessed to the man.

"Well it was a great night I'm full and tired I don't know how you young guys stay all night like this,"he say taking a look at his watch it was getting late.

"Come on let's get you home back to your wife so she won't beat me up. I can't fight my boyfriend's fiancé," I say hastily.

"Did you just call me your boyfriend? He questions stopping in front of the car. Well yes! I say grabbing his hand kissing it. I didn't go through all this to not claim you. We still have a whole lot of work to do, but your my nigga and I'm yours, so come on and let me get you home," I say opening his door not before laying a small kiss on his lips.

The drive to his house was peaceful and sweet I'm still scared of the whole future wife thing, but im choosing to believe him and her about there relationship I'm still just hoping I don't get my feelings hurt.
