Jèlaní POV:

We finally pulled up to school within 15 min, CJ and I were about to get out of my brother's car before his ass stopped us."Aye wait up here'', Everett grabbed my hand and put 200 dollars in it, I immediately tried to give it back to him, because he always gives me beyond what's necessary."Nope take that shit Lani, I gave that shit to you for a reason.It's for you and CJ to get y'all lunch and whatever you want to get from the store after school". I huffed and took the money into my hands. I pulled up the strap of my bag, back on my arm, and placed the money in my wallet. Not only that, but I silently made my way out, of my brother's car. CJ was already out the car waiting for me. I bent down to knock on my brother's tinted window, he slowly but shortly opened them. "Love you E, ill see you later. "love your little ass more, text me when you and CJ get out, aight. Later CJ". After that, my brother nodded at us and pulled off, to do who knows what. Literally, I have no idea what my brother does to for work. All I know is he always got money for our expenses, even though my parents fairly make good money. He always makes a point that he's got me.

I just hope he's not involved with something dangerous. He might be annoying, and insufferable at times, but he's still my big brother, and I'm going to be worried and care about him regardless he's my brother, and the only one at it. I watched him pull off. And walked my way over to CJ. We connected our arms together, and sauntered are way to the front of school. As we walked, everyone waved and said hey to us, well, more so to CJ and said hey to me by association with him. You see, CJ has always been an outgoing person. He's got a personality, in which that as soon as you meet him you're drawn to him, and want to be his friend instantly. Well, rather than me, I'm the quiet, keep to myself and introverted. The the opposite of him in all. Some people even wondered how we clicked and became best friends overall. But the truth is, I don't know.

CJ and I met basically when we were babies, we were about 6 in the first grade when we first met. I was playing by myself in the sandbox with my favorite toy at the time, which was my blue mighty Morphing power ranger. Man, I use to love that toy to death, and brought it with me everywhere. But on that particular day I was playing and out of nowhere, Mikey Torsion and his goons, came up to me, trying to pick on me again. They called me names, and tried to steal my toy from me. Mikey and his friend grabbed me and pushed me to the ground. I screamed and cried. Before I knew it, a boy came running over to me in a bright yellow outfit, shining like the sun. He punched Mikey straight in the face. Mikey had fallen back, and the mysterious boy told the rest of them off, as they both ran. Mikey was stunned, holding his cheek on the ground. The mysterious boy bucked at him, and that set him off to run towards the direction his friends went. I wiped my face, feeling a tear leave my eyes. The boy smiled down at me and offered me his hand. I gladly took it, and he helped me get up from the floor. The boy then walked over to the sandbox, picked up my toy and dusted it off and handed it to me. "Here, this is yours, right. My name CJ. And from now on, you are my bestie, ok". He smiled brightly at me and extended he's arm again to me. I shyly nodded and took his hand. And from that day forward we've been as thick as thieves, practically inseparable, we do everything together, and I wouldn't trade my bestie for nothing. That's my other half for real.

We walked down the hall to our lockers, which were just 2 lockers apart from each other. And placed the books we were required to get and read during the summer in them. Because nobody about to carry them heavy ass books around for the whole day. Like not eye, I closed my locker, just leaving nothing but 2 notebooks and a couple of pens in my bag. I grabbed CJS hand, and we made our way towards first period.

Time Skip
We're finally back at home now after, a long exhausting day at school. Everett was supposed to pick us up today, but in the end something had came up, leading him to just get us a Uber back to the house. Me and cj made our way to my front door. I pulled out my keys and unlocked the door, once we was inside I hung up my keys on the mantle. Before me and Cj could make our way to my room, we got hit with the strong smell of weed, which meant Everett is home. I looked at Cj and he just shook his head. "What is he's dumbass doing, if mom catches a wif of drugs on her new furniture she's going to flip". I walked my way to the living room ready to curse my brother out, but I then stopped once I realized he's company, when I stopped I felt Cjs head hit my back. "Why tf you stopped you made me hit my precious he....ad oop nevermind bestie".

This caused Everett and he's little friends to stop their smoke ses, noticing me and Cjs attendance. At the corner of my eyes I saw that one of he's friends was stairing at me mighty hard. He had smooth chocolate skin, a light beard, big plump lips, that when he smiled it showed off he's sexy teeth, making him look even more attractive. He sported black armami jeans, with a plan simple white tee, and some gold chains and diamond studded earrings. Even though he was sitting down I could tell he was tall, and he'd tower over me while standin. He looked at me, and then licked he's lips, I even think I saw him wink. But I might have been hallucinating on that part. I instantly broke eye contact with him, and turned my head away shyly. I could tell it didn't go unnoticed by Cj as he looked at me and smirked. "Bitch I see you, ok get he's fine chocolate self". I rolled my eyes " Nope, I don't know what your talking about cee, so shut it before he's ass hear you". After a while me and Cj was communicating with our eyes, until my brother said something. "Why y'all steady standing there, run y'all little asses up stairs, I'm busy and y'all see I got company". I rolled my eyes yet again, "So this is why you couldn't come pick me and Cj up from school, you in here smoking up a storm"
"Right bestie, tell him. And Everett give me a hug, and while your at it introduce us to your little friends you had to smoke with so bad, that you couldn't get us" Everett had passed the blunt to one of them sitting on the left him, in a all black Nike tech, sighing and rubbing his hands down he's face. He got up and went to give Cj a hug like he asked, he embraced the younger in tight hug.Because if he didn't he'd know the younger would catch a attitude, at first he thought it was strange. But between all the years Cj and Jelani had been friends, he quickly got used to it. He let go of Cj and sat back down retrieving the blunt back from Nike tech over there. " This right here is my boy jamal, he's brother Chris, and over there that's Tahj, say wassup yall". They all gave us head nods and a quick sup. I could still feel, he's eyes on me "Jamal, Chris, Tahj meet my younger brother Jelani and he's best friend CJ. Ok since y'all been introduced y'all can go now. And just liked that my brother pushed our asses out the living room towards the stairs, and jogged back to hese friends. Leaving me thinking about Jamal.
