H.E.R

Serenity and comfort.

"Where were you Kierra?" My mom asks
"I was out momma" I reply
"Go upstairs,your friends are waiting for you" she says
I didn't ever imagine myself being pissed by hearing that but here I am.
"And Yasmin's rapist has been caught" she shouts
Oh my God. That's wonderful! My mom put so much effort in this.
"That's wonderful momma, thank you" I reply
"I'm still pissed at you" she replies
"Oh"I say not being surprised.

I go upstairs feeling a bit relieved. They are in my room. Kobi is with my laptop on my desk while Yas is on my bed. Even pissed they can't stay away from me. It's cute.
"Yas you shouldn't be moving around" I say
"Look who's advising me,where you high Kie?" Yas shouts
"What no! A lot of things were running through my mind" I reply in a rude calm tone
"I heard you also insulted the teacher" Kobi says
"It was impromptu" I reply him
"Look I'm sorry,for my outburst in the car,we've been friends since forever and a boy can't break us apart,you do you okay,we just love you and really care for you" Kobi says
"And we wouldn't hesitate in killing him too,you went out with him tonight didn't you?" Yas asks
"Uhm kind of" I reply
"Details now" Yas says
"I thought you didn't like him" I reply
"Doesn't mean I won't get details about my best friends love life" Yas says
I look over to Kobi and he looks like he's about to over boil.
"Ewww Yas there's no love life and nothing to talk about,we just went to a Greenland" I reply instantly feeling butterflies in my tummy.
"If you say so,I'd find out anyway" she says
"Whatever" I reply
"Did you get the news" Kobi asks
"Yes I did, I'm glad he's caught now"I say
"I gotta head home now"Yas says
"Me too" Kobi responds
"Oh bye guys" I say
I take Kobi's hand just as he's about to leave.
"Kobi..." I say
"Save it Kierra,I forgive you and I'm sorry too" he says
We hug. It was short but felt really sincere.
I whisper into his ears.
"Text me we gotta talk"
He nods and leaves. I can feel he's still mad but I know my best friend he'll come around.

I jump onto my bed and stare at my ceiling,few months to graduation,college soon,tomorrow I'd tell my friends to start getting their college applications ready,we actually haven't talked about college,I really don't want to be split up.

"And Mike" my subconscious reminds me...
Oh damn. I don't want to think about him right now.
But why is he being so nice towards me and I can't even tell why I feel this way. I'm scared of falling in love,what if he leaves me or my best friends are right?
Suddenly my phone dings. I pick it up and check just to see that Mike and Kobi texted me at the same time.  Right timing universe.

     <🐿🌙❤️kobs: hey Kie,you wanted to talk?.

      <Mike🤮👎🏻:asleep? Saw your friends leave.

Is he spying on me? I reply Kobi first because my conscience bothers me.

        >hey kobs,it's about Yas,her birthday is in two weeks and she's turning 17,I know it's not a memorable age but she's our best friend,we gotta do something.
      <yeah,I thought of that but you were too busy to talk to, I think we should plan a pool party for her at my home,my dad is literally never at home and you know my mom doesn't mind.
        >that's nice, we'd start preparations tomorrow? P.s it's a Suprise! Come over tomorrow?
        <you don't have any plans with Mr you know who? But I'd be there by 10!
          >whatever kobs! Night ❤️
       <night Kie💕sleep tight.

A/N: "<" is used to represent Kobi's chats and ">" is used to represent Kierra's. Just incase you're confused.

I know Kobi,he'd come around for sure. Suddenly Mike starts FaceTiming me.

"Miss me already?" I ask
"Look out your window" he says
"Okay"
I stand up and look outside the window and see Mike standing by his window and he's giving me the middle finger. I don't even know when I laugh out like a hyena. I see him smile too but just a little.
"Why?" I ask still laughing
"You ignored my texts" he says
"I'm sorry,I was talking with Kobi" I reply
"Oh,I know he doesn't like me" he says
"You're not a celebrity Mike,not everyone is gonna love you" I say
"Oh so you do love me?" he asks
"Eww don't get cheesy" I reply
"But do you like me,I know you do"he asks

I keep mute,I don't know and can't explain my feelings towards him plus it's too early for all this. He notices my tense mood and speaks.
"Busy tomorrow?" he asks
"Yeah actually Kobi is coming over,we wanna plan a pool party for Yas" I reply
"Oh James,Trevor and I are hanging out tomorrow,thought you'd like to come,it's by 3:00 just incase you change your mind" he explains
"What makes you so sure?" I ask
"Because I definitely have an effect on you"he says
"You wish" I reply
"Oh sassy now are we?" He asks
I giggle.
"This means you aren't gonna be in school tomorrow"he asks
"Yeah,miss me already" I reply
"I'm not crazy" he says
"Goodnight Mike" I say
Night weirdo,I'd say dream of me but you're already planning on" he replies

I hang up. What does he think of himself though? I'm kinda sad he didn't stop me when I said goodnight. I go to close my windows and I see him,he looks at me and blows a kiss,I fake barf but he laughs and walks away.
I put on slow songs and let myself drift into the night. This has to be the best sleep I'd probably get in years.
