Something New

Chapter 7

*Zariah's POV*
A few weeks almost a month or so actually have gone by since we welcomed Dez into our lives and she fits right in. She has lots of connections for someone who lives a simple life as she says. We get into clubs and backstage passes to her shows. She of course still flirts with me. Jahmil thinks its cute and thinks I should flirt back. That's how he discovered his orientation. He watched porn and flirted with people. Not quite my method but that explains a lot about him.

Mackenzie isn't amused by the flirting she feels like Dez just wants to sleep with me. I guess once the hype of Dez being dezzybeats faded for Mackenzie she saw a potential toxic side to Dez. She says something is fishy about her flirting with me despite me saying im straight. I told her Dez is harmless and is just playing around. She's never pushed a boundary that I've set. As long as she doesn't we all are cool.

I got up out of bed and walked into the kitchen. I opened the fridge and a wave of laziness came over me. I do not feel like cooking. My phone buzzed and I checked it
Dez✨⚡️: hey wyd

Dez added some emojis behind her name. She said her name looked naked compared to everyone else's and she felt slighted so she put her own emojis. She laughed when I said she could pick her own.

Me: hey just got up
Dez✨⚡️: I want you to come with me
Me: oh to where
Dez✨⚡️: to a studio
Me:buy me breakfast
Dez✨⚡️: spoiled ass I'm always buying you food
Me:Not true 😒
Dez✨⚡️: I bought you and Kenzie dinner just last night
Me: because we're the girlies

I laughed remembering the Instagram post Kenzie made last night saying nights out with the girlies and Dez was like no I'm one of the guys. Not saying I've never meet a lesbian before I don't live under a rock but I've never been so close to one who I know finds me attractive. It's a weird feeling. Especially when I keep having these strange feelings about her myself confusing me about who I am and what I like. Dry spell or is it more? My phone buzzed again and I picked it up to look at it

Dez✨⚡️: So the studio?
Me: Breakfast?
Dez✨⚡️; Yeah girly 😜🙄
Me: Yay ☺️
Dez✨⚡️: You want me to spoil you but I don't get anything in return 🥺
Me: My friendship 🥰😂
Dez✨⚡️: whatever be ready. I'll be there in like 30
Me: you're gonna have to come in and wait then
Dez✨⚡️: I'll wait in the car

I rolled my eyes. Nan and Zion don't know exactly who Dez is. I don't know why she's so against meeting them. Says she doesn't do parents and brothers. I reminded her Nan is my grandma and not my mother. So whenever Dez comes to get me all they get to see is a car.

I went to my room and took out some clothes and went to get ready. I took a quick shower because Dez is known to start blowing the horn. I got dressed and sprayed some perfume. Here I go again getting all cute for Dez. I notice that when it's just me and Dez I tend to gussy up. Jahmil noticed it to but I disregarded him. I'm not gay so it doesn't even matter.

I walked out of my room and Zion was in the living room

"Oh hey" I smiled
