"Jahseh if you don't get the fuck up." I awoke to a Netflix screen, 'Are you still watching?' I groaned.

Why do I have so much fucking dreams? Why do I dream so much? I dream about everything, and they feel SO FUCKING REAL. What I had dreamt wasn't no dream, that was a nightmare. Why the fuck am I dreaming shit like that?

Next time I'm gonna be getting married to Stokeley, then someone is going to be shaking me violently and BAM, I'm not at my wedding I'm working at a special ed strip club. But then I remembered,

"KIM?!" I yelled looking around.

"I'm right here, why are you yelling?" Kim says casually. I got up and pounced on top of him, sending us to the floor. I hugged him tightly, not really caring if he couldn't breath or not.

"It's not your fault that Stokeley left, please don't go outside." I said quickly.

"What are you talking about? Did you have a dream about Stokeley leaving because he was jealous of us sitting to close to each other so he felt left out and got mad and left, so and you and I had an argument and I left and you were feeling guilty and worried I wouldn't come back and got a call from someone saying I was shot, THEN when you came to the hospital that check in for me they told you I died?" Kim says. "Because you were knocked the fuck out before the movie even ended. Stokeley left like 10 minutes ago." He continued.

"Kim, you have a gift." I said getting up, and helping him up.

"Who sent me a gift?" He asks confused.

"No not..that." I said chuckling. "Never mind." I said.

"Okay, well I'm going to bed." Kim says running upstairs. "Goodnight."

"So, how it go?" Miles says over the phone.

"Like shit. Jahseh fell asleep halfway during the whole thing, and we ran out of snacks to eat and Jahseh knows where the snacks are."

"Why didn't you just wake Jahseh up?" Miles asks.

"Kim says Jahseh gets really angry if someone wakes him up."

Miles chuckled, "True." He said. "How did you feel about everything?"

"I still want Kim to back off."

"Well..you should tell Jahseh you like him. PROBABLY just probably..Kim will back off." Miles says.

"How do you know that?"

"I know this, because I'm the smartest man ever."

"Gazzy is." I corrected him.

"Listen here you little biscuit bitch." He starts, "If you don't get your little gay ass over there, and tell Jahseh you like him, Kimetrius will STEAL HIM." He exaggerates. "Kim is your only competition, they aren't even dating they just have a thing. All you have to do is say those 3 simple words."

"I love you?" I ask

"I was thinking more of 'I like you' but if you wanna say that, Jahseh the type of person to say it back." He says.

"Look, Jah told me he's leaving to visit his cousins down in Orlando in a few hours, he's going to be gone for a few weeks so..either you tell him now before he leaves, or you can wait a month to tell him." He continues.

"I'll just wait..." I responded.

"You're such a pussy, oh my god." Miles says laughing, "Don't day nothing when Jahseh comes home with a big tall black man named Requis 'Tiny' Williams, saying he wanna marry him."

"Okay goodbye now." I said hanging up.

It would be great if I did tell Jahseh that I had some type of feelings for him now. I don't know why I can't, I'm too much of a fucking pussy. I'm only a push because Kim is making me an even bigger pussy. How does Jahseh just be

I know Kim was going to be over at Jahseh's (yes I know, because they live together) but I don't care, I'm going to mosey my way over to Jahseh's crib and tell him that I like him and why.

"I haven't seen my cousins in like 6 years, I'm glad they contacted me and still live in Florida." I said while folding a few shirts.

"How old are they?" Kim asks sitting on my bed,

"The same age as me."

"How old are you?"

"One hundred and twenty four."

"Well what they say is true then..black really don't crack." Kim says jokingly making us both laugh.

While we were having more small talk we heard the doorbell ring,

"I'll get it." Kim says jumping up and leaving to get the door.

It better be who the fuck I think it is. Stokeley's slow ass needs to step up his game and hurry the fuck up. I can purchase that ring any day now.

I open the door and to my surprise, it's not Stokeley. It's some red dread head with a '14' tattooed onto his forehead and some other bullshit on his face. I have no room to talk about shit face tattoos because my face is like I was the first to fall asleep at a sleepover party.

He looked like that one Star Wars character. Or I don't even know if it was a Star Wars character.

"May I help you?" I asked.

"Is Jahseh here?"

Oh this is one of Jahseh's hoes? Why is he here? Did he cheat with one of his mutual friend's girl and so Jahseh broke ties with him and he left and just now came back? I wouldn't be surprised if it was that Valerie chick that stuck around for like a few months and dipped.

"He..is." I answered. "Why?"

"C-can you please call him? Down here? I need to talk to him. Before he leaves." He says. I scrunch my eyebrows. How he know he was going somewhere?

"O-oh. Okay." I said, disregarding his last statement. "What's your name?" I ask.

"Michael." He answers.

Sounds familiar.

I go back upstairs, leaving Michael at the door. "Jahseh!" I called

"Yes, Kim?" He answers

"You got someone here for you." I said.

"Who is it?" He asks turning his attention to me.

"He said his name is Michael. He asked to see you before you leave." I explained.

His face turned into a confused look then back to normal,

"Oh..okay. I talked to him earlier about this, I don't know why he's over." Jahseh says before leaving his things to go down to Michael.

I talked to Michael earlier, I told him that I'll be gone for a few weeks to visit family. I really don't understand why he'd be here right now, but I don't know, guess the only way to find out is to talk to him.

I opened the door and there Michael was standing at the doorway looking anxious.

"Hey..Michael."

"Hey Jahseh." He responds.

"Why are you..uh.. here?" I asked.

"Can I..talk to you?"

I hesitantly let him in and closed the door. I was about to ask him why he needed to talk to me when there was another knock at the door. I sighed deeply. Why the fuck is everyone dying to see me when I told everyone I was leaving in a couple hours?

"Who is it?" I asked.

"It's Stokeley." He answered. Suddenly I felt more happy hearing his voice. I opened the door. "

"Hi Stoke." I said letting him in.

"Hey Jah and Kim. And oh..Michael. Didn't know you were here." He said looking over at Michael.

"Yeah..Hey." Michael said.

"What did you need to tell me, Michael?" I asked.

"Wait no. Jahseh, I need to tell you something before you go." Stokeley said cutting in. "I..um..I like...your hair." I nodded slowly.

"Yeah, I like your hair. I really wish you'd bring back the blonde and black." He says quickly he says giving me a cheesy smile.

"You've told me this like a hundred times, Stoke. I told you I'd think about it."

"Yeah but I think you'd wanna know just one more time." He responds.

"Are you for real, Stokeley? It's like you were counting to a million and you forgot where you were at and have to start over." Kim blurts. "Is it that hard to tell Jahseh you like him?"

"You like me?" I asked

"N-no! No. No. I don't like you. Wait I like you but I don't like you..like that. Not at all." Stokeley says quickly.

I fucking knew it.

I am such a stupid bitch.

"Oh..thank you.. Stokeley. Anyway, Michael what did you need to tell me?" Jahseh asks Michael.

Michael catches himself in what he was going to say and thinks for a second before answering,

"I was wondering..if I could come with you on your trip?" He asks.

"You sure, Michael? I don't want you to feel left ou-"

"No I won't, I'll be fine. We're friends, I'm not gonna feel left out. And you've told me about your cousins before, I would like to meet them." Michael says putting his arm around Jahseh.

"Oh well..okay. I was thinking about leaving now so..if you want to go grab some things I can take you."

I rolled my eyes and turned to leave "Anyway, have fun Jahseh. See you later Kim."

"Bye Stokeley." Michael said behind me. I shook my head and closed the door behind me.
