"Remember that time we went to go see Avril Lavigne? And got grounded for a whole month?" He asked gazing at me with flecks of gold flashing across his eyes.
516Please respect copyright.PENANAhCsHZFRxDO
"I remember you hated Avril Lavigne, but you still came even though you knew we would get in trouble" I smirked reposing my chin on my hands, he was perched on his side, utilizing his elbow to hold himself up at the base of the bed.
516Please respect copyright.PENANAVKrPIPgyuw
"Still hate her, I still didn't understand your goth phase, and yes because" he paused, looking down at his hand, I gave him a puzzled look.
516Please respect copyright.PENANAdAfrmthmlY
"I didn't have a goth phase, I'm half Latina you douche" I grumbled poking his tummy with my big toe.
516Please respect copyright.PENANAYng37OmSsR
"Alex, you dyed your hair black, wore green contacts everyday, and goth attire, that shit went on for a whole year" he pointed.
516Please respect copyright.PENANAg4DswLE04z
"That's not the point, and answer my question, why did you still go with me?" I pressed eyeing him, he eyed me then away, his dark eyes smoldered by his unintentionally arrogant demeanor.
516Please respect copyright.PENANAvOiARm1T2c
"As I was saying-" Jamal commenced to speak, but I interrupted him.
516Please respect copyright.PENANA04UfKWlvAg
"Because you were hopelessly in love with me, and I made you promise to not let me go alone" I chirped with a wide grin.
516Please respect copyright.PENANAo5iDm7kGZI
He eyed me, humor curled his cheeks, A chuckle eluded his pursed lips.
516Please respect copyright.PENANAi3x52lYQnv
"Maybe, or because I felt the need to protect you, you were still 15 I was doing my second term at Brathwaite" his eyes perforating through me making me laugh out.
516Please respect copyright.PENANA6RSHerXBdA
"I don't need protection, I plan to be swooped off into the night by a vampire prince who will then make love to me in the silver lake under the moonlight" I chirped in an animated voice.
516Please respect copyright.PENANAIacO3c3Kph
"Then I'll have to come keep you from getting your jugular ripped out" he grunted looking away.
516Please respect copyright.PENANA5OFuG19WCb
"My knight in shining armor" I drawled mordaciously.
516Please respect copyright.PENANAlEzcHCqBig
"And you call me crazy" he added, rising off the bed prehending his bag.
516Please respect copyright.PENANA9ftWwNcfXC
"Oh come on, we were vibing, crazy to crazy" I mumbled attempting to obnubilate my laugh, he smiled but it was gone in a second and superseded by a vexed frown making him look down at his feet for about five seconds, then looked to his left determinately settling his gaze on me, he had that look he gave me the first time he heard me sing.
516Please respect copyright.PENANAIUteJGPCf1
"And I remember distinctively that it was your mother who called my mom" He shot at me smirking.
516Please respect copyright.PENANAmerjoJdfAS
"She told her in Spanish" I nodded remembering the event like it was yesterday, oh the days.
516Please respect copyright.PENANATdiKlQH7eA
"Hey how comes your mother speaks Spanish so well, but you can't?" I asked with a wide grin hoping he would somehow get defensive.
516Please respect copyright.PENANAaPvSHZebps
"Your Impudent" he offered flatly.
516Please respect copyright.PENANAkIv8FstdHF
"Cullo perra" I muttered in my native tongue, he just eyed me flatly as if he was judging me at that very moment, but then he smiled at me and I returned it albeit I definitely wanted, no needed to punch his lights out.
516Please respect copyright.PENANAKdopwjFLSI
"I missed you Alex, literally, we haven't seen each other in virtually five whole years, shit is crazy" he mumbled looking down at me with a frustrated mope.
516Please respect copyright.PENANAEtxIklHnR9
"Ok Jamal, I missed you too you big man baby but your dreams are coming through right now at Christian Tech and your making partner, sounds like an achievement to me" I smiled up at him as he eyed me then he let out a long sigh, he knew I was right but I knew how he felt so I just perpetuated.
516Please respect copyright.PENANA3vNNLyeDWy
"You've been diligent, I was in college and it was a lot but we're becoming responsible adults like we promised each other, to always be on top and make our parents proud, even if it signifies we get separated for a few lousy years your still going to be my best friend" I voiced rising up standing on my knees up to him, fixing his tie.
516Please respect copyright.PENANAMVqmwswgiX
"Yeah, but I know nothing has changed between us, but it was so much better when you weren't halfway across the world" he grumbled eyeing me shrugging, I nodded.
516Please respect copyright.PENANA4agAZFvvmA
"I know but I'm here now" I coaxed giving him a reassuring smile.
516Please respect copyright.PENANAiOaUKUOWOr
"You could have gone to upstate though, just saying" he blurted out all of a sudden, my smile drooped in a nanosecond and I glared at him.
516Please respect copyright.PENANAVf90CaKlMK
"Your an asshole, and Lille Nord de France was my best choice for my adeptness, but guess who landed a job at D'Wayne Tech?" I scoffed but closed my eyes awaiting his reaction.
516Please respect copyright.PENANAoypTRpW915
"Are you pulling my dick?" He asked with raised brows, I just scoffed brushing him off.
516Please respect copyright.PENANAPn7pQKqfyV
"Your unbelievable" I scoffed but smirked at him, he raised and eyebrow and dressed back.
516Please respect copyright.PENANAGcljKpGtQp
"But, been there done that" I announced pointedly as his face contorted into mock mystification, I laughed out loud pointing at his expression.
516Please respect copyright.PENANAvGZdx2k80m
"Are you flirting with me?" He asked with a wide smirk.
516Please respect copyright.PENANAMUO5lAOSk9
"Dude, no" I furrowed my eyebrows at him questioningly but I turned me head to the door
516Please respect copyright.PENANAZUcXIvxadc
"Mom!" I yelled the loudest I could, in less than fifteen seconds my mom was opening the door to my old room poking her head inside and again she sported that ghastly blue beanie she always wore while she was in the kitchen, I cogitated if she deliberately evaded buying hair nets because her one excuse is still notorious around the house, they shrink her hair when the kitchen gets hot, I was veraciously not buying that story but who was I to try and make my dear old mother part with that oven mitt in the composition?
516Please respect copyright.PENANAYwsn0JSisH
"What? make it fast, Aden is making a mess in the bathroom, and unless you want a flash flood, this better be good, because you'll be cleaning the whole thing up" she verbally expressed rigorously as she fine-tuned her firy green eyes that were fixed on both me and Jamal who cringed as she glared daggers at me as if she was more agitated than every mother.
516Please respect copyright.PENANALkA1PYU8pM
"That's not fair-" I started to say but a crash could be heard in the bathroom further down the hall.
516Please respect copyright.PENANAsxU4xra657
"Adén, consigue su culo blanco en ese cuarto de baño , Now!" my mom's accent cut in making my eyes widen at her telling my 8 year old brother to get his white ass in the bathtub, I silently thanked God I wasn't Adén at the moment and also praying for the kids culo blanco.
516Please respect copyright.PENANAf4vRt1759B
"Tell Jamal I got that D'Wayne Tech Job, he doesn't believe" I mumbled frowning at Jamal, who gave me that coy look again
516Please respect copyright.PENANAQ1QI822EnU
"Yes, He did now is that all?" Mom asked again, eyeing us both.
516Please respect copyright.PENANAjxwPB7w5SZ
"Si, gracias Mrs. Ford" she smacked her teeth and was gone.
516Please respect copyright.PENANAI8CfjGGRCq
"Remind me why I still come over to your house while your mother is around" He asked smirking at me.
516Please respect copyright.PENANA2JLwAvdwQm
"I heard that!" my mother shouted from down the hall making our eyes widen again, I tried my hardest not to laugh but then he had to open his mouth.
516Please respect copyright.PENANAtoEv2WmCyx
"Joe sento, señorita, I mean Snora? " that was it, my stomach was cramping as I laughed like a hyena in the Congo, it took me a whole minute to calm down after my mother muttered something unintelligibly around the corner, it was just exorbitant to not laugh.
516Please respect copyright.PENANAUWztYnUrPx
"Remind me why you still try to speak Spanish? And she's not that deplorable, but she's still my mom boy, abort" I argued pointing a finger at him.
516Please respect copyright.PENANAKKr4NzWxng
"Yeah, she's Latino, todo fuego, y loca, muy loca" he argued but conclusively virtually got that whole phrase right, key word almost.
516Please respect copyright.PENANAvxS5p8RndR
"Very funny ass-wipe now congratulate me" I laughed jumping on his back swiftly.
516Please respect copyright.PENANAvEh7TL4JDJ
"Congrats Tut" he smiled holding my leg so I wouldn't fall.
516Please respect copyright.PENANAVINcbOsmKa
"That name" I groaned pushing off his back and taking a seat on the bed flopping down, my curly hair a mess on my old peach sheets.
516Please respect copyright.PENANAUOtmkbvOsa
"Sensitive, are you coming to my place or are you planning to stay here?" He asked although he knew what my answer was but in lieu of answering I eyed him blankly.
516Please respect copyright.PENANArTvxJyZ9OG
"Is that even a question worth asking dude?" I suctioned my teeth.
516Please respect copyright.PENANAZrpqLlY8A3
"Ok, let's bounce before your mother makes us clean your brother's bathroom" he added with a marginal shudder making me chuckle shaking my head, he grabbed my suitcase and we left. Of course I had to tell my mom we were departing, or she would have been such a mom.
