"i don't understand why i had to come." alexis said, looking up at jamal while she adjusted the duffel bag on her shoulder.

"because she is our friend and she needs us." alexis raised an eyebrow, "fine, she's my friend but she's technically your friend by association."

"what association?"

"well, as my girlfriend my friends are your friends too." alexis smiled widely a blush started to take over her cheeks. "i'm your girlfriend."

jamal rolled his eyes, "duh. keep up woman."

alexis placed the duffel bag on the kitchen table, "the money is staying here."

monse was quick to shake her head. "no. no, i can't keep the money. what happened to abuelita?"

"the old hag scammed us." alexis and jamal dramatically gasped at the way ruby described his amazing grandmother. "what? i can say "old hag." she's my grandma."

"monse, we just need a secure place to store it until we can work out a new plan, pronto."

"but i invited some friends over."

alexis' face scrunched up, "ugh. there not snobby white bitches, are they?" monse didn't answer because she was already heading to open the front door.

alexis picked at the raw fish monse's new friends brought them, "I knew it."

"this is a beautiful presentation and i appreciate the artistry, but i'm not sure about the protein involved."

"is there chicken in this?" jamal asked cautiously. "just tuna."

ruby looked at the platter in disgust, "why is it so red?"

"it's raw."

"why are you talking like that." alexis asked. "like what?"

"never mind."

alexis kicked her feet in the pool, her quiet time however was interrupted when ruby and one of the girls stepped outside to join her by the pool. she felt like her mind was rotting away as she watched ruby and the blonde girl interact, she finally had enough when she saw her lift her finger to poke into his bullet wound.

she started to gag before rushing up and heading back inside, "those two are fucking disgusting."

"what are you eating?" alexis asked raising an eyebrow taking the cup of gummies from jamal's hand. "i told him to slow down."

"jamal, these are edibles."

"i know. that's why i'm eating them."

jamal attempted to take the cup back to eat some more, "they're full of cannibals."

"oh my god, the cup is basically empty. how many did you eat?" jamal looked at alexis with scared eyes, "ten? twelve?!"

"okay, you need to calm down. where's the bathroom." the brentwood native pointed in the direction of the restroom. "come with me." alexis was quick to grab jamal's arm taking him to the secluded area as he started to freak out.

"i'm gonna die!" he paced back and forth in the surprisingly large bathroom. "you're not gonna die."

alexis was starting to get dizzy as jamal started to jog in circles, "jamal you need to calm down." she said slow and loud but he continued to panic over her.

rolling her eyes alexis brought jamal down for a kiss, he slowly started to calm down as their lips moved perfectly in sync. "see. look. all better. i told you-"

"shush." jamal quickly brought their lips back together in a hungry kiss.
