A week and a half later...
"Well. I told him we was done but he kept saying we wasn't." I said looking at Tray. He looked at me before pulling out his phone.
"Hm." Was all he said.
"Look. I'm finna block him." I pulled up Tyree's name in my phone and blocked him. I showed Traylyn. He looked at the phone then at me.
"Yeen gotta show me nothing," he said pushing my phone out his face, "We not together so I'm not tripping on you for real."
Keem approached us with the new iPhone 14 Pro Max.
"Look at this nigga." I said watching him approach us, flashing his new phone to everyone he walked by.
"You broke ah niggas. You hoes really not getting money for real." He said putting his phone in my face. I pushed it away.
"Boy... Yo ass just got it and don't know how to act." I rolled my eyes. I looked over by the vending machines and I saw Tyree eyeing me down. I focused myself back on Keem and Tray.
"Man, what ya'll tryna do this weekend, foo?" I heard Keem say.
"Shiddd, tryna fuck some hoes." I looked at Tray like he was crazy. Meanwhile, him and Keem laughing and dapping it up.
"Me too. Tryna fuck some niggas." I said laughing with them. They stopped laughing and looked at me. I side eyed them.
"Keep playing shorty." Tray said making me laugh.
"Boy bye. You just said we not together. Hell on by." I said laughing.
"Ight bet."

"When you had the leg up, up, up, up..." I said singing a TikTok.
"Shut up, Jariah." Traylyn said to me. I mugged him.
"You being weird as fuck." I said walking away from the lab table I was at in the classroom. I decided to sit in a empty desk at the front of the classroom.
"Good afternoon class! If you haven't already, take a look on the board. We will need 2 sheets of regular paper, a red pen, and a black pen. We will be correcting these exam papers. If you are an exempting senior and you have no more classes for the rest of the day, you may leave. If you are an exempting sophomore or junior, you may go to the media center. And I know if you exempted ir not, so don't try to play." The science teacher said to the students. I turned to look at Keem. He got up heading for the door. I followed behind him and Tray followed behind me.
"Aye! Ja, come here." I heard. I turned around and it's Tyree.
"Yes?" I said approaching him.
"Can we talk for a second?"
"Come on Riah." Keem said looking back at me. I rolled my eyes.
"Text me on Instagram. We can talk like that." I said walking away.
"I thought you wasn't talking to him no more?" Tray said me. I rolled my eyes and walked ahead of him. "I hope them bitches get stuck."
______________
"Keem you can just drop me off at home." I said looking at the window as we pulled into the neighborhood.
"Nah, she good. We gotta talk for a second."
Keem pulled into the driveway of his house. They got out and went upstairs to his room. I slugged behind them.
Tray pulled me into the guest room, but it was basically my room, that was across the hall from Keem's.
"Why you been playing wit' me today bruh." He said looking at me.
"Because you played with me, the fuck." I said mugging him.
"How I played wit' you, Jariah?" He said looking at me sideways. I don't know what it is, but something about him saying my whole name when he mad, it does something to me. Unknowingly, I bit my lip which made him lick his.
"You saying you finna fuck other girls is not playing wit' me?" I said cocking my head to the side.
"Come here." He sat on the bed and I sat next to him. "I already know you got feelings for me, so why would I say that infront of you and mean it?" He said making me turn my head away. He turned it back towards him making me bite my lip again.
"Man whatever. You niggas always say shit ya'll mean then play it off as joke." I said getting off the bed, starting to walk off. He pulled me back by my waist and towered over me.
"I got feelings for you too Jariah." He said. My eyes were traveling back and forth from his lips to his eyes. His doing the same.
He finally leaned in and kissed me. I, hesitantly, kissed back. He deepened the kiss by adding tongue and wrapping his hand around my neck. My body went from tense to loose. I let him take control of me.
"Sit down." He said to me, pulling away from the kiss. I sat down. "I'm not like these other niggas. You funny as fuck, goofy, pretty, and you just you. I'm gonna appreciate you for you." He said looking me in my eyes. I couldn't look him in the eyes. I shook my head okay. He gave me a hug and we walked out to Keem's room.
"Damn... the fuck was ya'll talking about?" Keem said looking at us walk in his room. I mugged him.
"Mind yo business nigga." Tray said. I sat down on the top of Keem's bed, by the headboard, and Tray layed in between my legs while he played 2k with him.
"Oh... I know what ya'll talked about now." Keem said making us nug him. "My boy not a hoe no more."
"I never been a hoe... and we just chilling right now." Tray said looking back at me. I smiled at him.

Traylyn had fell asleep on me. I was just scrolling on my phone when I told Hakeem to get me a bottle of water. He brought it back and opened it and poured it on Tray. Me and Keem both started laughing. He jumped out his sleep and sucked his teeth.
"Come hereee." I said pulling Tray back down to where he was laying on me.
"No bruh, you play too much." He said standing up.
"Okayyy, I'm sorry." I said standing up too.
"Give me a kiss." Tray said making me laugh. "What's funny? If you sorry, give me a kiss." He said. I looked at Keem and he was dead ass just staring at us.
"Boyyy. You doing too much, I said I was sorry." I said still laughing. Tray was biting his lip at me. He put his hand around my neck and pulled me into a kiss. I kissed back. He pulled me away with his hand still around my neck, I stuck my tongue out in response to hand placement.
"Stop playing so much bro." He said making me smirk.
"Boy get off me." I said still smirking. I looked at Keem and he had a shocked look on his face. "Cause why he doing all that." I said getting back on my phone.
