Third Person
"Get your ass up, man." Tommy was awakened by someone kicking his bed.
"What?"
"The fuck you mean what? You gotta go."
"You said I could stay here?"
"For a little bit. But my cousin just got out and he needs a place to stay, so you gotta go." Tommy's clothes were dropped on top of him. "Get up. Go to Bone's house or something." Tommy got up from the mattress on the floor and put his clothes on. He grabbed his phone and jacket.
"How I'm supposed to get there?"
"I don't know, man. The buses and trains are still running."
"Can you drop me there?"
"Nigga, you got money for the gas to get there and back? Naw, so figure that shit out." The door closed in Tommy's face. He sighed and stepped off the porch. The night air hit him and he shivered. His clothes were dirty and had some rips in it. He hadn't had a proper shower in a few weeks and his skin felt dry and crusty. What he wouldn't give for a good bath in a jacuzzi tub.
Tommy made his way to the bus and put some money together for a ride to Bone's house. "You a dollar short, man." The driver said. Tommy searched his pockets.
"I ain't got it, man." The driver took pity. The little money that Tommy did make from selling went to helping out where he was staying. After that he barely had anything left.
"Go ahead."
"Thanks." Tommy sat down in the back as the bus took off. Bone lived almost an hour away by the bus.
Tommy hated the bus. It smelled, the seats were sticky and so were the floors. He really wished he would've passed his driver's test. At least he didn't have to worry about school. He had graduated, so he was free during the day. That's a plus.
He laid his head against the window and watched the night sky as he rode past several buildings. All he wanted to do was go to sleep, but he knew better. Last time he did, he missed his stop and had to walk over an hour to get to where he needed to go. He had no money, no car, barely any food and now no place to stay.
To him, this was his parents' fault. They decided to put him out and now he ain't got anything. They made a big deal about something so small. It was crazy really. The more Tommy thought about it, the angrier he got. What kind of parents put their son on the streets? What would all of Janet Jackson's fans think of her then?
Tommy pulled the cord as the bus approached his stop. He got off and made his way to Bone's house. Bone lived in a pretty nice neighborhood and he was only in his mid to late twenties. This is what Tommy was working towards. Spending years in school was not in his plan. That's the dumb shit his parents' wanted.
Making it to Bone's house, he rang the doorbell. Not long after, Bone answered the door butt ass naked with a hard dick. "Aww shit, man."
"Tommy, what the hell you doing here, man?"
"Big put me out and told me to come here so his cousins can stay with him. Why you got your dick all out, man?"
"Cause I was getting some fire pussy and this my fucking house. If I want my dick out, it's gone be out. Get your dumb ass in here." Tommy stepped in and saw a naked girl on the couch.
"Hey, Tommy."
"Hey, Tee."
"Tee, wait upstairs in the room for me, while I show this dumbass where he sleeping."
"Okay, daddy." She got up and kissed Bone before going upstairs. Tommy watched her ass jiggle as she walked.
"Damn." He whispered.
