whew I wrote this bitch with one eye open, it's going to be short. But it's like a filler chapter too. So I'll make the requirements a little less.

Please ignore any and all mistakes.

Kayden sat beside Elijah at his apartment, doing what they always do. Smoking. With Christmas being tomorrow, Kayden was surprisingly in higher spirits. His grieving process had its days where he just wanted to be alone, but most of the time he wanted to be with his friends or Destiny. People he could be himself around, no matter what kind of mood he was in.

Elijah currently had the blunt in his mouth, with a lot on his mind. The two were having conversations about Naomi, who finally decided to give Elijah some attention.

"Damn nigga you babysitting the blunt." Kayden mugged him and Elijah laughed, hitting it one more time before passing it.

"Shut yo goof ass up."

Kayden snickered and hit it quickly. "So what you're telling me is— Naomi putting yo ass on that 3 month process before she let you touch her?"

"Yup." Elijah nodded before shrugging. "But it ain't no issue foreal, I haven't really been in the mood to fuck anyway."

Kayden paused and looked at his friend like something was wrong with him. He stretched his hand out to touch his forehead. "Oh my god nigga are you dying?"

Elijah smacked his lips and swatted his hand away. "No nigga. I just— I don't know. It's crazy to admit it but I think I really like this girl. She different." He smiled just thinking about her. "And she genuinely laugh at all my jokes."

"Wow," Kayden mumbled, shaking his head. "Never thought I'd live to see the day where you actually admit to liking someone. I mean I guess you can leave the streets in me and Brandon hands." He smirked, hitting the blunt again before passing it.

Elijah grabbed it and tilted his head at Kayden, confusion written on his face. "Nigga huh? How I'ma leave the streets in your hands when you got feelings for Destiny? Make it make sense."

Kayden eyes widened slightly. "What?! Who the fuck said that?"

"Me nigga! I see it with my own two eyes, yo ass is a goner. You been retired from the streets like months ago." Elijah chuckled, bringing the wood to his mouth.

"Nah my nigga you smoking cocaine if you think I, ME, of all people have feelings for anybody, let alone my baby momma. We're literally just friends." He said, shaking his head quickly.

"Yeah okay." Elijah mumbled sarcastically. "If you falling for shorty and to pussy to admit it just say that."

Kayden sucked his teeth, in complete disbelief. "I'm not understanding where you getting this information from."

"Oh?" Elijah questioned, a huge smirk growing on his face. "WELL your honor let me submit evidence A— today we were at the mall and this fine ass girl, big booty judy, came up to you, tryna shoot her shot. You denied big booty Judy so fast she might not ever recover. I ain't never seen you deny a big booty Judy! Let's move on to evidence B— whenever that girl calls you, texts you, asks you to do anything, there is never any hesitation on your part! I guess I can also add in that you invited the girl to ya hometown! And don't even get me started on evidence D— WHEW—you haven't had sex in about 2 months! Now tell me if you are guilty or not guilty for retiring from the streets! I say GUILTY and I'm screaming for life!"
