Under Your Skin

18

I was so fucking bored. The school had sent me missed work packet that I had honestly already finished. I missed track. I missed eating lunch with my friends and Xavier.

Xavier the most. I don't know how it was possible for me to miss him, he was always over here but I still did. Not only that, my dad stayed home for 4 days since that's all they would grant him and during that time he's been stealing my boyfriends for man bonding time. Like....maybe you should've had a son if you wanted to play basketball in the yard. Can I have my man?

I laughed at my own thought before rolling into my side. I didn't really mind it, I liked that they got along. My parents both seemed to care for Xavier as much as I did.

My phone buzzed and I lifted it to my eye line to see a text from the very person on my mind.

Micah 💕: what's the move tonight baby?

- I thought you had a game?

Micah 💕: it's Thursday baby.

I laughed before texting back.

- the days blur together in jail

Mocha 💕: you ain't in no damn jail. Ima come over round 6 baby. But I can't spend the night

-but ma is working overnight and daddy went back to base 🥺🥺

Micah 💕: .....why you tryna seduce me?

- I'm not....I'm just sayin 😌

Micah 💕: sure sure....better open the door naked or sum. Tryna make a nigga stay.

- 😘

Micah 💕: Mmhm, I'm going to class baby. 😘

- ok, learn something

He didn't respond after that, letting me know he was in his class and had put his phone away. I glanced at the time before sighing to myself. It was only 1:22. Ways away from 6.

I sat up and exhaled, getting up and going to get my guitar. Might as well do something useful.

I paused before glancing in my closet. My digital piano was somewhere buried in there and honestly, I haven't played it in a while. Guess I should start digging.
