"Riah..GET UP" I open my eyes and wipe drool off my face seeing Tanya layed out on top of me.

"Mmmmmm" I groan trying to get her off me.

"You been sleep all fucking day get up" Preius grabs my arm and starts dragging me off the bed and Tanya snatches the cover off of me.

"Leavveeee me aloneee" I groan some more just laying on the floor.

"Get up..Oop-" Tanya said before she tripped over my leg, busting her shit making all if us to laugh.

I got up off the floor and stretched for a little as Tanya gathered herself off the floor still laughing.

I look around the room seeing Jay wasn't in here so I ask them where he was.

"He went to the store" They answered right when I heard the front door open and we all flinch.

"JAY" I yelled but got no response so I grabbed his gun off his shelf.

I walk towards the stairs holding the gun with both my hands as Preius and Tanya walked behind me.

"Da fuck is yall doin" Jay comes around the corner and I point the gun at him.

"Gimme my shit" he snatches the gun out my hand, mean mugging, and walks into his bedroom. Me, Tanya, and Preius just look at each other then start laughing.

Our paranoid asses

"Go get inna car we finna go see Demetrius again" Jaymar says leaving out of his room again while lighting him a blunt and walking back downstairs.

"Damn, li nigga amgry taday huh?" Preius said making her and Tanya laugh.

"Im finna go brush my teeth real quick" I tell Tanya and Preius as they walked down the stairs.

A few minutes later I finish brushing my teeth and slip on my champion slides that I always leave at his house before walking out the front door.

I look at the car window I had bust out last night seeing it was now fixed and start feeling even more guilty.

"I see you fixed the window" I say towards Jay as I get in the front seat and got no responds.

"I could've fix-"

"Its coo" He cuts me off while starting up the car.

I look in the back at a Preius and Tanya and they just stared at me in an awkward way, not knowing what to say.

I grab my mouth trying to hold in my laugh from the way they were looking at me and just turned towards the window as he drove off.

We arrived back at the Southside medical center where Demetrius was being held.

"PREIUS STOP BEING GAY" Tanya screams once Preius smacked her butt, running away laughing.

I look over at Riah walking behind them, wearing one of my T-shirts, thats extra big on her. Along with her slides and a bonnet on.

I ain really talking to nobody not because im mad just because I don't feel like talking. Yea, I am a shitty Riah bust my fucking window out and that she told us to come to this party knowing that girl was up there and ain wanna tell me first.

I know she ain tell me cause she know I wouldn't have let her go because we don't need to keep fighting and getting into it wit folks at parties and shit. Thats gon put us inna way and in harms reach. I keep havin to tell her that but it looks like it goes through one hear and out the other.

"We're here for Demetrius Holmes" Preius said towards the receptionist.

"Ok wait one moment...his room is right down the hall, door 104" she tells us smiling.

"Thanks" Tanya and Preius say at the same time as we all walk through the hospital doors and towards his room.

We walk in and see James still there, playing his game as Demetrius was sleep. James notices us and gets up, hugging the girls and dapping me up.

"I was talking him all last night. He seeming better all ready to me but he still can't move like that" James tells all of us as we just stood there looking at him.

"Where was he shot at?" I ask.

"Right on the side of his stomach, popped him right inna guts" James tells me pointing at his stomach, on the side where they hit Demetrius.

"Why you always laughing ain shit funny" James said as we both look towards Tanya.

"You didn't have to say 'popped him right inna guts' you coulda just said he got shot in his stomach, doing too much" She responds while still having a slight smile on her face.

"Thats not funny" he says mugging her.

"Bitch stop being serious alla time damn, serious ass hoe" Preius said towards James mean mugging him and I just sit down already knowing they finna get to arguing.

"Why is yo ugly as-" James started talking until he was cut off.

"Can yall shut- hmmm can yall shut up" Demetrius wakes outta his sleep trying to talk, ignoring the pain he feels in his stomach.

"Heyy gang how you doing" Riah walks towards him with a huge smile on her face.

"What it look like miss.maam" he responds.

"You would think yo ugly ass would be nicer" She said back to him.

"Now why would I be nicer and im in fucking pa-" he cut himself off wincing.

"Im in pain bitch" he continues making James chuckle.

"Dont call me no bitch, bitch" Riah responds smacking his head.

"Now why- Riah when im not like this nomo im beating yo ass" he says with a smile forming on his face.

"Happy ta see that smile li bro" I said towards him with a slight smile on my face.

I look over seeing Riah walk out of his room so I follow behind her as everybody else was too distracted because they were talking to Demetrius.

"Why you walk out?" I ask her seeing her sitting outside on the curb.

"Why not talking to me?" She says looking up at me.

"Thats why you walked out?" I responded ignoring her question.

"No, I walked out because I don't like seeing him inna hospital bed like that. Now answer my question"

I sat down next to her on the curb with her eyes still facing me and said "Im not mad just didn't feel like talking" .

"Hmm" she responded looking away from me and straight ahead.

When she do that 'hmm' shit I know she don't believe me.

"Why you didn't tell me that girl was there Riah" I asked her looking at the side of her face.

Side profile sexy as hell too

"You know why"

"I can't keep telling you to control-"

"I know, I know, I needa start being smart. But I was being smart tho. I waited to fight her outside thats smart" she said cutting me off. I just sat there lookibg at her like she was dumb.

"Fine...you right that still wasn't allat smart either"

"Clearly" I responded sarcastically.

"I just still had hatred for them bitches. Then it grew when they continued to go talk shit on social media, so I just had ta do what I had ta do"

"Look where that gotchu"

"I know you not talking" she looks over at me mugging.

"Ian reckless wit my shit. I would never go to a party and get busy wit nunna my opps. I would catch them somewhere else, where ain that many people and do my thang"

"So this whole thing my fault huh" she looks away from me again.

"Ian blaming nun on you cause you ain know they was gon start shooting and neither did I. I just want you to start being more smart and start tellin me when you planning shit like that. Cuz you know I gotchu, I woulda found her address and allat fa you, we coulda popped up at ha crib"

"Just stop being so hotheaded Riah chill out sum times" I added on.

"Ok" she answered sounding done with the conversation.

Her ass hate when I lecture her but she be needing it so ion care.

"You promise? Dont just say ok n do this shit again"

"I promise nigga damn" She pushed me away with one arm, still having a mean expression on her face and I just laughed while scooting next ta her, putting my arm around her.

"We needa lay off da parties too" I said.

"You right ion really fuck wit em anyways"

"Preius nem used ta draf me inna parties back in Chicago because I never wanted to go. They used ta say 'bitch you a wallflower and we hate those' ian give a fuck doe I neva liked being around a huge group of people" She added on shrugging her shoulders while laughing a li bit as I chuckled.

"Shid me neither" I responded and she just wrapped her arms around me.

"Hollon, nigga why you get inna bed at 8am when we arrived at yo house at 6" she pushed me pointing her finger in my face.

"First off" I smacked her finger out my face.

"Right when yall went into da rooms I went and got my window fixed that YOU broke" I responded pointing my finger in her face when I said the 'YOU' part.

"Yea that better be why" she smacked my hand, rolling her eyes.

"And if it wasn't fuck was you gon do?" I said mugging her.

"You was gon be one dead bi-"

"Shut up" I cut her off by grabbing her face and kiss her, sticking my tongue in her mouth.
