Home.

"Briiiiii."

"I'm coming." I called dragging myself to the front door. I opened it up seeing Kairi and Tania with some snacks. I half smiled letting them in the house. They've really become my besties since Bailey died. I really appreciate them.

"Don't feel sad." Tania waddled to the couch. Kairi sat next to her and I dragged my easel over to them.

"I can't help but feel sad." I grabbed my paintbrushes. I dragged my chair close to my easel before taking a seat. "Kree is so disrespectful."

"True." Kairi agreed, "I know that for sure. Not trying to justify his behavior, but he really has mental issues. Sometimes I don't know what goes on in his head."

"Yeah, and I've witnessed it first hand. He hasn't been to therapy in a while, and he's off his meds. He was doing good, but maybe he should try and get back on them soon." Tania said pouring a glass of sparkling apple juice.

"Wait, I thought this was wine?" Kairi grabbed the bottle.

"Please, you heffas not about to drink wine in my face." Tania said causing us to laugh.

I listened to them talk as I continued painting. I paint when I'm sad, and it always makes me feel better. I love artists, they inspire me so much. My favorite being Picasso and Leonardo Di Vinci. Their work just speaks to me.

"Bri you okay? I don't like it when you're quiet." Kairi spoke.

I nodded, "Just painting."

"Ooh, you paint? So cool. Do you mostly do paintings or drawings? I wanna know." Tania smiled.

"Both. I like drawings more, but when I paint it makes me feel free. Like I'm painting while floating in some water on a hot summers day. A beautiful setting around and then all of sudden rain happens. It gives a change in attitude and now I'm sad, stuck figuring out how and why'd I not check the weather?" I spoke causing them to stare at me weirdly.

"Um, you sure have a painter's mindset." Tania said earning a chuckle from me.

"Yeah." I bit my lip, "I do."

"That's why you have 'artist' tatted on your hand?" Kairi asked.

I nodded, "Mhm. I'm a proud artist."

We sat in a comfortable silence for a while before I broke it.

"I've been having these sexual dreams about Kree. So sexual, like it's mind blowing. I would go into detail but-"

"Spare me." Kairi face was bawled up disgusted.

"Spill." Tania took a sip from her wine glass.

"Kairi? Cover your ears." I smirked.

"Eh, I'll just imagine it's Devin." She laughed.

"So it's like he's doing me rough, so rough. Sucking my boobs, fingering me, sucking on my cli- well you know. Then at the same time it's like really passionate. Like it's supposed to come true. I don't understand how though, we haven't even kissed or anything for these thoughts to be taking over my mind." I sighed once I was done.

"I should've covered my ears." Kairi shook her head, "But seriously, you been having those thoughts about my little brother?"

"Yo little brother ain't so little." I mumbled causing Tania to burst out laughing. "Plus, he just knows how to please-"

"Please!" Kairi covered her ears.

I laughed, "Sorry. Tania wanted me to go into details."

"Not tryna sound like I'm into him or anything, but when we were at the pool in Dubai, you couldn't help but see it. Yes I'm happily married God who said that?" She looked around.
