Valerie's pov
———————
"Wait up, you putàs" I call out as I run up next to Ruby,jamal,and monse. They all turn around to face me "oh sorry val you didn't reply to my text." Monse says."I was in the shower cabrona," I point to my wet hair. "Whatever, come on." Ruby grabs my arm and pulls us forward towards the party we're looking at.
Ruby and I have been neighbors since I can remember , but we didn't know each other until the 4th grade, and I have the biggest crush on him and actually I think it's died down since the 4th grade when I was overly obsessed with him. Kinda sounds weird and gross if you think about it.
Ruby and I stand on some empty crates while jamal and monse stand on some boxes peering over a brick wall, looking at everyone partying. All I saw were people grinding on each other,making out,smoking,or drinking beer.
Monse sighs, "Do you see him? I don't see him." She asks, looking at everyone."Something bad is happening. I can feel it. I knew this was a dumb idea, " jamal stresses. "Pop a zannie,j," Ruby says.
"We can't see him 'cause he's being steath," he adds ."No doubt. He's got this. When has Cesar ever been disappointed?" Monse says "fourth grade. Kickball Tourney. We lost. " Me and jamal say together.
"Only 'cause I picked the kid with no skills," we heard, making us turn around to see Cesar holding 5 beer cans. "and I'd pick you again," he smiles, throwing us the cans. "Loyalty trumps victory,compa"
"Take it in. This is about to be us. This is high school. " Cesar continues as we open the beer and take a sip. I swallow and make a disgusting face and look at the can.
"Ruby,you think your brother's gonna marry Angelica?" Monse asks."No idea. Mario tells me Jack," I stare at Ruby's older brother,Mario, as he makes out with some girl named Angelica.
Jamal chuckles. "What about that time he said Angelica had a dangler?" I snapped my neck towards jamal and let out a chuckle as Ruby sighed,"but he said that" jamal stopped laughing."In private!" Ruby examined.
"Time and place, dude." I shook my head."Oh guys, check out Huerita at nine o'clock," I looked over to some blonde girl. "Monse,Valerie, if you were girls -" he started, "we are girls." monse groans, making me laugh.
"Yewh,but if you were a girl like that, would you wear underwear?" He asks "honestly I wouldn't even wear a bra if I was like that, " I commented, making Cesar smack my arm and let out a chuckle.
"Oh,my God. I'm gonna die. I'm gonna die. I'm gonna die." Jamal starts panicking."Why are you gonna die?" I asked, looking over at him. "Those guys play for the 'Ridge. Did you know that last year alone, over, a quorum of kids -"
"Died playing football?" Me and monse finish."You're stuck on repeat." Monse says,"So,don't play. " I spoke, "no choice. My pops was a legend. It's family tradition" we all kinda stare at the footballers well, everyone, but Ruby.
