ch. 37 || an unlikely couple

•Colin's POV•

"What did you do to my best friend, Kaepernick?"

Jamal, Stephanie & Tristan came over for breakfast this morning and while Jamal was playing with the kids, Stephanie & I were in the kitchen watching Jalissa cook.

She was really...happy today. She was humming and dancing around, something she usually doesn't do until later in the day.

"What do you mean?"

"Don't play dumb," Stephanie said. "I know y'all had sex last night. Good sex will make you happy like that. Trust me, I know."

She smirked to herself, and I raised my eyebrow at her. "Wait. Did you have sex last night?"

"Huh? No, shut up. This isn't about me," she said, struggling to hide her smile.

"Anyway," she said, ignoring my stare. "What'd y'all do?"

"We went to a dance class, went to get ice cream, then we just hung out."

"Y'all hung out here?"

"Nah. I took her to this field and we listened to music and...talked," I smirked.

"Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Wait a minute," she hurriedly spoke. "You got Jalissa to have sex with you in a car?"

"Actually, it was more like the other way around."

"You're telling me she initiated it?" I nodded. "Damn. My little Jalissa is growing up," she smiled proudly.

"Breakfast is ready!!" Jalissa beamed.

Jamal and the kids came in, we laughed at how happy Jalissa was, then we started eating.

After breakfast, Jamal & I went in the living room with the kids while Jalissa & Stephanie stayed in the kitchen.

"Kaep, you would say we're pretty cool by now, right?" Jamal asked, staring straight ahead.

"Yeah. Why? What's up?"

"I did something last night and I need to tell someone. I would usually talk to Jay, but I can't talk to her about this."

"Are you in some kinda legal trouble?" I asked.

"Nah, nothin' like that. I just...I had sex with Stephanie."

This explained why Stephanie was acting weird earlier.

"You what?!"

"It just happened, but you can't tell Jalissa. She would probably k—"

"You did what?!"

Jamal's eyes widened, and I snapped my head in the direction of the kitchen.

"Something tells me she already knows."

•Jalissa's POV•

Something strange was going on around here, and I intended to find out what it was. I hated being clueless.

"Steph, why are you being weird? What'd you do?" I asked, sitting next to her at the table.

She fidgeted with her fingers before looking me in the face. "I did something crazy last night, but I don't want you to be mad at me."

I furrowed my eyebrows and sat back in the chair, crossing my arms over my chest. "What'd you do?"

"I had sex with Jamal..."

At first, I laughed because I thought she was joking but when she didn't laugh back, I knew she was serious.

"You did what?!"

"I'm so sorry, Lis. Please don't be mad at me." she cried. I just sat there trying to process this information. My best friend and my brother? Having sex? "Lis?"

"I-I'm not mad. I'm just confused." I finally looked at her. "How'd this happen?"

"After the kids fell asleep, we started watching a movie. He kissed me, I kissed back, and one thing led to another."

"Well, what does this mean? Are y'all a thing? Is this the first time this has happened? W-what's going on?"

"This is the first time this has happened, I promise. Nothing's going on between us; we haven't even talked about it, but..."

I looked at her out of the corner of my eye and raised an eyebrow. "But what?"

"I think I like him."

Oh no.

I sighed and ran my hand through my hair. "I'm gonna go talk to Jamal."

I went in the living room and kept my eyes on my brother, who looked like he was about to break into a sweat.

"Colin, can I talk to Jamal for a second?" He nodded and left the living room. "Why, Jamal? Why would you have sex with my best friend?"

"It just happened, Jay. We were watching that movie, Addicted, and I was horny as hell. I haven't had sex in a year, so I needed it."

As upset as I wanted to be, I couldn't be. He always found a way to make me laugh when I didn't want to.

"So what, are y'all gonna start messin' around?" I asked.

"Nah, but I think I might have caught feelings for her," he confessed with a smile.

Oh no no no.

"Jamal..."

"Lis, I know what you're thinking, but it's not like that," he said, defending himself.

"You know I love you, bro but when you date girls, you end up droppin' 'em for no reason. I don't want you doing the same thing to Stephanie. She's the only real girl friend I have."

"I wouldn't do that to her. I actually know her, I can hold a conversation with her, and Tristan loves her."

I let out a heavy sigh and sat back on the couch. Is this real life?

"Well, y'all are grown, and you're gonna do what you want. Just please, Jamal, don't hurt her."

"I won't."

He gave me a hug and kissed my forehead like he always did after our talks.

I wasn't completely against the idea of Jamal & Stephanie getting together; I just hope they were serious if they were gonna do this. I wouldn't be able to handle two of my favorite people hurting each other.
