baby, I can’t take no more,” she moaned.
    Sean stopped briefly but only to remove his jeans. He noticed her right leg trembling. The desire he saw in her eyes excited him. He shifted her hips close to the edge of the desk and thrust inside of her.
    He moaned in pleasure at the feel of the moisture in between her legs. “Charlotteeee,” he said her name over and over.
    Charlotte met each one of his moves with one of her own. They rocked back and forth on the desk until they both climaxed. He held her close to his chest until their heavy breathing subsided and seemed as one in a slow even pace.
    Sean didn’t know what the future held, but he knew at this moment, and at this time, life was perfect. He was exactly where he wanted to be. He didn’t just want Charlotte in his life; he needed her mind, body and soul. Being with her completed him and he hoped she felt the same way.
    The doorbell rang. Sean hated the delivery guy came as soon as he did. He didn’t want to move. The doorbell rang again.
    Charlotte said, “The food’s here.”
    “I better go before he starts banging on the door.” Sean kissed Charlotte on the lips then put his boxers and jeans back on.
    Charlotte eased her skirt down. “I’m going to the bathroom to freshen up.”
    “Everything you need should be in the cabinets,” Sean surmised.
    Thirty minutes later, Charlotte and Sean were seated across from each other at the kitchen table eating their Chinese food. Neither seemed to want the night to end as they talked and shared things about their childhood and family with one another.
    “I always wished I had a sister. Mona and Kem are the closest things to it. You may not remember them, but they were at the charity event where we met,” Charlotte said, right before drinking from her bottled water.
    “I’m sure if I see them again, it’ll refresh my memory.”
    “My parents both moved to California from the south so I don’t have any family here that I know of. I’ve basically been on my own since they died.”
    “I have other family, but Marie’s the only family I’m close to. When my parents were killed, we went from house to house. No one wanted the responsibility of taking care of us. Marie lied so she could keep me with her. She pretended to be older than she really was. I don’t know how she did it, but she got us housing in the projects. Those were some rough years, but we made it through.”
    Charlotte reached over and rubbed the top of his hand.
    “If your fans only knew the trials and tribulations you’ve gone through to succeed, they wouldn’t dare be turning their backs on you now,” Charlotte said.
    It touched Sean that Charlotte was concerned.
    “I don’t talk about it much, but I do talk to the youth and try to encourage them. If a child sees they have hope, then they will try. We have to give our youth a reason to want to do better with their lives.”
    Charlotte nodded in agreement. “There’s more to you that I didn’t know.”
    “There’s a lot of stuff you will never read online. If you want to know something about me, all you have to do is ask.”
    Charlotte pulled her chair closer to the table. “I want to know everything.”
    Sean went on to tell Charlotte more about his life before becoming a famous R & B singer. “If it wasn’t for Priscilla’s brother, Dallas, taking a bullet for me, I might not be here today.”
    Charlotte’s mouth dropped open in surprise. “What do you mean?”
    Sean’s eyes glazed over as he thought back to his late teen years. “I was nineteen years old. I was doing whatever I could to make ends meet. I grew up in the Fifth Ward of Houston. Me and my friend, Dallas, would steal and then resell items to get money. Well, we happened to steal from the wrong person. They wanted to retaliate. Someone identified the car we used. Dallas happened to be in the car by himself and took a bullet. A bullet that was also meant for me.”
    “I hate to sound selfish but I’m glad you
