CEDDY BEAR: Ch. 16

Cedric POV

"Ceddy, yo say something money. Im sorry. I really am." I'm hearing Qamari, but I'm really not listening.

I can't believe that he hid Ro Ro's crush from me ALL this time. He hid that just to get a chance at me. Its trifling to say the least.

We still in Qamari's room, but this time we're alone; after Qamari's butler Louis informed us that Q's father Mister Lorenzo requested everybody for dinner, Navarro went home to get ready. He said he'd be back, but he really did seem too upset to actually wanna come. Truthfully, I hope he changes his mind and returns.

In my mind, there are soooooo many questions that I have to ask Navarro. However, Ion think tonight is the night to ask him those questions. But I still want him there.

Suddenly, I feel a hand squeeze a chunk of my ass. Instantly, I smack the shit outta Qamari, bringing me back to earth.

"Awe shit! Fuck! The hell you smack me for Ceddy? Damn!!!!"

"You deserve much more than a fucking slap in the face Q. Why are you the way that you are? More importantly, how could you do that Navarro? I thought y'all were friends."

"We are friends Ceddy."

"So what was the reason? Huh? WHAT WAS THE REASON!!!!"

"STOP SHOUTING!!!!!"

"NO!!!! Don't tell me what to do. Answer the fucking question."

"I can't give you the answer to the questions you asking."

"And why the fuck not?"

"Because its complicated."

Did he really just give me that tired-ass line its complicated? I outta shoot his ass in the kneecap for that bullshit!

"iTs coMplICAteD," I mock him. "You must think Im fucking slow to give me that bullshit ass response. 'its complicated'? You made it that way."

"Its complicated because it IS complicated. You'd have to hear the whole story from both sides. But Ro not here and I can not be unfair to that nigga's feelings and say somethin' when he ain't even here to defend himself."

"So you considerate of his feelings?," I said, side-eyeing him. This is complete---

"Bullshit. I knew you was gon' say that shit. Stop complaining."

"Stay out of my thoughts. And by the way, if you really cared 'bout Ro Ro's feelings, you wouldn't have made that big-ass embarrassing scene in the hallway...right in front of him." My mind goes back to that moment constantly, but what I just now remember is Navarro's expression; he was stone-faced during the ordeal but this eyes held sadness. I guess at the time I didn't notice, but now its hitting me like a ton of bricks. How could my ass have been so blind?

"Q," I continued, "you really outta be ashamed of yourself. You really are horrible."

"Look, baby I just--- wait, wait wait. Hold up. The fuck am I doing? You know what Ceddy, fuck you."

"Excuse you? Fuck me?"

"Yes fuck you! I care about you. I always fucking did!!! And yeah, I admit it. I did know about Ro's feelings for you, but he wasn't gonna say shit! He never would unless he was angry and he used to scare the shit out of you! You wasn't finna fuck with him like that!"

"I'll never know that NOW!!! Cause of you!!"

"Watch who the fuck you talking to in my fucking house," he said, voice menacingly low (too low for my liking). He was calm about it, which really did scare me a bit.
