[16] "So you finally came to claim your spot."

Ebony had went up the guest room that Nicole had said she put some things out for her. On the bed were bath and body works toiletries.
Well damn. This better than what you get at a hotel. She thought.
It was the Sweet Pea body wash and lotion. She had some olive oil shampoo and conditioner to get the food out her hair that she couldn't dodge.
She stripped out her clothes and folded them up and left them on the bed. She turned the water on hot and let the shower streams pour into the tub. Ebony stepped in and let everything wash away. She cleansed her body and washer her hair.
When she was done, she got out and wrapped a towel around her hair and another towel around her body. She stepped out into the room and grabbed the lotion.
BOOM.
She jumped, nearly dropping her towel and looked towards the door seeing Jamal standing there with a grin.
"You scared the fuck outta me!" She said catching her breath. "I almost dropped my towel."
"So." He said approaching her. "You got something under there I wouldn't mind seeing anyway."
"Yea well I'm not your "G" word and I only show my "B" word my goods." She said moving away from him.
He sat down on the bed. "Really Ebony?"
"Yes! I mean, what have we been doing for the past two weeks?!"
"I don't know. Chillin?"
"Chillin?" She said in disbelief. "Well you can chill on your own. Get out."
"I just really thi-"
"Get out!"
He sighed in defeat. "Whatever man."
"Asswhole." She mumbled as he closed the door.
She went and locked the door so he couldn't come back in. She dropped her towel and put lotion all over her body and then put on the Alabama pajama pants and plain white t-shit Nicole had set out.
She squeezed as much water as she could out her hair and decided to leave it be. It'll just be a in its natural state of curls.
She left the room and remembered the direction Jamal took her when she was over the first time. When she went in the theater, everyone was already there and booed up. She saw Jamal sitting alone and mugging the hell out of Malcom.
Ebony didn't want to sit near Jamal but she didn't want people to suspect anything so she sat in the seat next to him instead of sharing the double seat he was sitting in. She grabbed her own cover and pillow and reclined.
Jamal cut his eyes at her, and then looked away. He wasn't in the mood for this shit. He wanted to know why this fuck nigga was in his home.
"So Ebony, what does your parents do; since yal have seen the foolishness of ours." Asked Akia.
"Oh my dad is in prison. My mom is a photographer."
"Oh my gosh, what for?"
"Drugs."
"I'm so sorry."
"It's ok. He's still lookin out for me."
"What about you Essence?" Akia asked.
Fuck. Essence thought.
"Uh, I don't know my dad, and my mom is a drug addict."
"Oh really?"
"What drugs are she on?"
"I uh, I don't wanna talk about it."
"And you don't have to." Darnell intervened. "Lay off Ke."
"My bad! Just tryna get to know her."
Essence felt uncomfortable now. Akia wasn't falling for that bullshit. She might have Darnell fooled, but it sure wasn't getting past her.
"So what do you guys wanna watch?" Jessica asked breaking the awkward silence.
"I know." Jamal said jumping up.
He wanted to have a little fun, so he put in The Conjuring. He sat down with this devious look on his face.
Darnell already knew the deal. They had done this plenty of times before when they brought girls over to fuck.
"Oh my gosh. Really!" Jessica said.
"I swear you guys, damn." Akia whined.
"Play too fuckin much." Ebony mumbled.
"I actually like it." Essence said surprising Darnell.
"So do I need to hold on to you?" He asked.
"You can." She blushed. Darnell put his arms around her.
Jessica was freaking out. She hated scary movies, but didn't want to look like a punk since she was the only freshman there. Malcolm noticed and pulled Jessica into his lap.
"Baby I got you." He whispered and kissed her neck.
She relaxed into his arms and laid her head on his chest.
"Babe." Akia pouted.
Rodney chuckled. He put Akia legs across his. She was laid out, so he laid his head on her chest.
"Everybody good?" Jamal asked before hitting play.
"What about yal?" Rodney asked.
Jamal and Ebony looked at each other. Jamal spread his arms wide and patted his chest. "Right here. Just for you." He smiled.
She threw her hand up at him. "I'm straight."
"Alright." He shrugged. "Suit yourself."

It was one hour into the movie and Ebony was shaking in fear. She had the covers up to her face. She was trying to hide her fear by not jumping, but every time she did the damn chair rocked.
Jamal was laid out, and enjoying the movie. Everyone else was too. The guys were loving how their girlfriends were holding onto them in fear. It gave them a chance to spit game and sneak in a few kisses here and there.
It was at the part where the mother was playing the clap game to find out who was downstairs.
Don't go down there. Don't go down there. Ebony chanted in her head.
BOOM. Two unknown claps came behind the woman's head and she went rolling down the steps and got locked in the basement.
Ebony jumped out her seat. "Oh fuck this."
She laid on Jamal and buried her face into his chest. He let out a few chuckles and wrapped his arms around her.
"So you finally came to claim your spot." He teased.
"Oh shut the fuck up."
